    Yeah, but he doesn't do mean tweets!

    I hope all those suburban soccer moms swilling their Trader Joe cheap chardonnay and pondering their generational white guilt are happy with the Aricept Poster Boy. He's nice. A leaky southern border providing a steady stream of Delta and Lambda COVID positive illegal immigrants, inflation running at 6% and gas prices climbing daily in our no longer energy-independent country, matters not.

    Because his handlers don't do mean tweets for him. He's nice.

    Ask any Chinese businessman he's ever shook down...

    When was the article published?
    It speaks to lack of supply, but does it say whether there is demand?

    the writing is better than most network shows.

    FIFY.

    Doesn't hold a candle to any series from BBC you can find on Netflix.

    I'm going back to "Silent Witness.

    As far as I know, none of my Darwin-based systems has anti-virus software.

    I have Windows 10 systems that come with Microsoft Defender. I just leave that alone since I do not use those Windows 10 system all that frequently anyway.

    they are, after all, former Brits; just the ones who got sent to penal colonies across vast oceans.

    And then discovered how much better the weather was, and they've been happy as grigs ever since. Roit, mite?

    I've followed Yeonmi Park on YouTube for a long time now. She has also written books, given Ted talks, many lectures, and is thoroughly believed by those people whose opinions matter on the issue of North Korea.

    As for those taking shots at Fox News, you seriously need to open your minds more - Park can see where America is heading better than most, because she's experienced what it's like to be where we are headed in this country. Some of you won't understand that until it's too late.

    The thing that annoys the hell out of me with regard to Biden is what a blowhard he is. Granted, one can have reasonable disagreements on public policy, the economy, national security, whatever....

    But this guy loves nothing more than the sound of his own voice. One need only look at some of the hearings in Congress where he's participated. I recall one instance (can't remember the specific hearing...9/11 perhaps?), in which the questioner was allowed 10 minutes with the witness.

    Biden spoke for 7 minutes before he asked his first question. Then, he complained that he didn't have enough time to "pursue his line of questioning."

    This.

    I'm sorry guys, but in context to the guy who was just in there, this is about the funniest thing I ever heard.

    That’s what she said.

    I'm all for reducing emissions of all sorts. But not in a kneejerk reaction to 'mights' and 'ifs'.

    If there are still classified evidence of the 9/11 event, indeed they should be declassified and made public.

    Okay that's pretty cool. I have an 8-or-so-year-old Air just collecting dust here that I might try this on just for kicks.

    Wow… So much BS in one article. Let me paraphrase a few items

    “yes, breakthroughs are occurring, but very few cases are severe”. Great. Most cases among unvaccinated aren’t severe, either. How about we get some actual numbers?

    “breakthroughs are still very rare! 160,000,000 vaccinated and only 120,000 breakthrough cases” is about the worst statistical analysis I’ve seen.

    Give people the facts. Real facts, real numbers. Every obfuscation or generality given just makes the hesitant doubt you more.
