    I’ll bet it’s an obvious pun in orca language.

    Nope. At age 30 (yes 30 years) my parents finally let her live with a group home. My dad understandably was stubborn about giving up control of his daughter. But eventually realize the reality. Basically she’s in a home where 1-4 adults with special needs live. The state gives the home “parent” money for it. She’s gone through a few homes, her main thing lately is a compulsive consumption thing…there’s a term for it, I forget, but she’ll drink mouth wash, swallow batteries (many, many times), but they’ve found a place that seems to be better than most now.

    Science! Hey I’m a Vikings fan now, but never count out the Steelers post season, especially if the Patriots aren’t there to ruin the AFC path every, freaking, time.

    @aqua-letifer might remember this but in 2004 I remember listening to his show and calling and getting on the air. I think we have a tape or CD somewhere of it. I’m sure it was a very wise comment I made (sarcastic).

    @jon-nyc said in Maduro might be checking the train schedule: As one of the comments points out that chart is priced in local currency which may have also shit the bed during that window. That’s the technical term, right?

    @jon-nyc said in Not that I feel the least bit sorry for Maduro: But just imagine what it must be like - one day you’re dictator for life. Every luxury at your disposal. The world your oyster. The next morning you wake up in Federal prison in Brooklyn. I bet he woke up Sunday - if he slept at all - hoping it was all a nightmare only to see bars in the window. Similar thoughts about Epstein and why I think it's totally reasonable for him to have committed suicide. Human contentment is about the first derivative of one's status, not the absolute value.

    Is there a link to the entire dissertation? It would be more fair to critique after skimming through the original document rather than opining off a few choice quotes selected by some rando on social media. OK, found the newly minted PhD. on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/olga-estrada-28b74a65 … but I am not sufficiently motivated to reach out to ask for a copy of their dissertation. And, social media being what they are these days, I cannot be entirely sure that the LinkedIn profile is a true reflection of the real person anyway.

    Speaking of fraud don’t forget Trump pardoned Esformes. My DOJ buddy knew that case well. Epic Florida Medicare fraud I believe.

    He’s too YouTube-y for me. Almost like a high schooler doing an interview. Anyway… imagine how much fraud is found within Medicare/Florida?

    The funny thing is Trump’s NY residence (no longer his official one but his wife still lives there) is in NY-12.

    He downplays his service too, and he was the freaking COMMANDER of multiple space shuttle or ISS missions if I recall correctly. If it weren’t for the lying and the petulance, I could get behind much of what Trump does. It’s a shame.
