Politicians are weird - they go on for ever. I'm trying to retire, or at least partially retire, as soon as I possibly can, and then maybe work somewhere part time, or do something charitable or what-not to keep me occupied. I guess if you're defined by your job, it's harder to give it up. Obviously, anybody who was defined by my job would be in a pretty bad way

Lastly, if you don't want or need a big garden, SFG is the way to go. Two 4x8 raised beds, properly done, can grow an amazing amount of fresh vegetables. https://squarefootgardening.org/

@mik said in YOYO: WWTRD What would Teddy Roosevelt do. Negotiate an end to the war?

@jolly said in Bucs waive LeVon Bell to activate Fournette: Bills-Chiefs may be one of the best play-off games I've ever seen. Yeah that was like the end of a Rocky movie where the last minute each boxer was throwing (and landing) haymakers. Incredible... also enabled by tired defenses playing "prevent the TD" defense.

I actually think we should allow it here, with special conditions attached, such as a waiting period.

It's been too long! Missed you very much .

@lufins-dad said in How Chicago deals with snow: You guys did see the part where they are also ready to roll out hot peppers and celery salt if necessary? In Philly they use cheesesteaks

We need to hit the free agent market for next year and draft for the future.

@larry …. that would be bad manners.

@mik said in Wat Dis?: No reason he should ever walk free. Agreed. If you're interested, read "Catch Me If You Can" by Frank Abagnale. He talks about Scandinavian (specifically Swedish, iirc) prisons vs others in which he was incarcerated. I read this about 15 years ago, and if memory serves, he was liable to extradited from a Swedish prison (where life was good) to an Italian prison, where it was (cough) not quite as good. He was able to swing a "persona non grata" declaration from the Sweded, necessitating his transfer to a US prison, which he considered far preferable to an Italian one.

Well, if he was black, then he would behave like the black stereotype and follow the left's mantra.

@george-k said in The ACLU...: That's what's changed, and it's sad. Yes, at least they served a purpose. Now they are just another twisted interest group.

@mik said in Pfizer, Moderna boosters win against Omicron: I hope all remain mild and improve quickly. Yes, what Mik said.

I'm not a dog expert, but judging from our dogs, that doesn't look like love to me. More like "I'm waiting for the right moment to bite you".

14 out of 48 state senators are black, and they complain about systemic racism.
