Can't be gettin' the COVID, ya know. Thought you already had COVID. Don't dare get it again. Our ounce of prevention is a liquid ounce, or two.

    https://www.nytimes.com/2021/06/12/business/private-equity-taxes.html @89th, the article linked above hits truer at the title of your thread. This one is about the “carry interest” privileges enjoyed by the investment bankers, the abuse of that privilege, and the almost nonexistent IRS auditing of private equity firms despite explicit whistle blower complain against them for this sort of abuses.

    @mik said in Graduation...: Yep. Time for him to have a little fun. Jon style. Actually, it’s more likely to be @Aqua-Letifer style. They got there, went grocery shopping, spent an hour arguing over what laundry detergent to buy, then went to the house, played pool, ordered Sushi, and are spending the evening watching Conjuring and Real Steel.

    @horace said in Misinformation: @doctor-phibes said in Misinformation: @jolly said in Misinformation: @doctor-phibes said in Misinformation: @jolly said in Misinformation: Nonsense it may be, but why scrub it? Because they don’t want their boards to be associated with potentially dangerous drivel and/or a possible lawsuit? Who decides what is drivel? In this case, the de-facto moderator of the discussion board - the host. Considering the zero realistic chance the forum host cared about that post, I would zoom out one level to identify the de facto moderator. Namely, whatever the host was afraid of if they'd just ignored whatever complaint they received about the post. An interfering busy-body, no doubt. Governmental or otherwise.

    It may be that both parents are less than stellar, or that the mother created the mess that led to this. Either way, the child should not have been put in this situation. Public humiliation and rejection by a parent are hard to forget.

    Does the DC jail qualify as a re-education camp? If so, Ax's hero may have accomplished an American first...

    Michael Douglas Alan Arkin Kathleen Turner Morgan Freeman Paul Reiser Haley Joel Osment Ann Margaret Jane Seymour And guest stars (from previous seasons) Jay Leno as himself Patti LaBelle as herself Jason Kravits as Woody Littlehales Corbin Bernsen as himself George Wyner as Rabbi Elizabeth Sung as Mrs. Liu Rex Linn as Ed Danny DeVito as Dr. Wexler, a urologist Elliott Gould as himself Eddie Money as himself Bob Odenkirk as Dr. Shenckman Lainie Kazan as Norman's grandmother Allison Janney as herself Morgan Freeman as himself Barry Levinson as himself Christine Ebersole as Estelle How can you go wrong with such a lineup? It reminds me of "Mozart in the Jungle".
