I think Congress should abide by any law that pertains to the rest of the citizens. If there is a conflict between investing and insider info, then a Congress Critter must place his investments into a blind trust.

@aqua-letifer said in Time to hate them back?: Well, sure. It can happen. What I'm saying is that we're not in the Weimar Republic yet and we shouldn't treat it as a foregone conclusion. We've only just survived The GREAT DEPRESSION OF 2008 PEOPLE DEAD IN THE STREETS!!!!!11!, and already people are getting a hard-on for the next one. Misery loves company.

Wonder how low he can go?...

@aqua-letifer said in New culinary discovery: Dude. What does she subsist on??? Brown food. Google "Cicero, Illinois" and you'll learn all you need to know. No sauce, well-done meat (preferably dry), shaved ham, burgers (well-done of course), spuds. No casseroles, no fish...I could go on.

Football is still on TV?

Yeah, I watched that. Fascinating.

@lufins-dad said in Meanwhile, in Britain...: If I remember correctly, one of the biggest motivating factors behind Brexit was all of the cheap labor coming from Poland and taking jobs away from local lads… So after 3 years, it turns out that none of the local lads wanted the jobs? Lazy, good-for-nothing, xenophobic bigots turned out en-masse in favour of Brexit. . . . . . And that was just the Boris Johnson cabinet.

I think '32 was the first year and '53 was the last Straight 8. Mine had that engine coupled to a three on a tree. Had enough torque it would take off in any gear. Car got 20mpg and would top out at 100mph. Even though that engine was less than 300 cubes, you'd see it in buses with appropriate gearing. The doors on those old cars are so heavy and so solid, you can close them with one finger. When they close, they click into place like a bank vault door. The backseat had so much room, you could lay down on the floorboard between the front seat and back. And the backseat has armrests, just like the couch in your home. With wool fabric seats, BTW.

Love it! Damfino what ninnyhammer let these goats into the kitchen.

A less dramatic way of phrasing the result would be to say that life expectancy was temporarily set back to the levels from 5 years ago.

@jolly said in Crib Sheet.: Should a congregant exhibit some judicious behavior about who he is in proximity of? Yep, I'll give you that one. Thank you, I am glad we have found common ground. But I expected as much since I regard you as man of integrity and applaud you as a dedicated health care worker doing your very best under difficult circumstances.
