    Well we need test cases to settle things down. A bit of wild Wild West right now. Regulations will fix that, nothing better for social media to be subject to regulations. Let the progressives get a nice taste of their own regulatory medicine.

    We really liked it. Good story, good characters, good effects.

    I’ve seen the 76 version but that was decades ago. It used some of John Ford’s documentary footage. This one didn’t but it did have John Ford as a very minor character.

    My father started scraping the car against the garage. That’s what we could see. It was probably worse than that.

    He knew it though.

    When he finally moved in with my sister I drove him in his car from IN to Arlington. When he walked in her house he handed my sister the keys and said ‘take it, I won’t be needing it anymore’.

    A young lad dropped by my house today, who served a hitch in the Corps and did one tour in Afghanistan.

    His opinion? One word...

    Clusterfuck.

    He said there might be a few gals that could pack a combat load in the 110 degree heat, but they would be far and few between.

    I agree with both assessments. But it'd be a cluster because of inflexibility to change, not because women by virtue of being women would destroy the military.

    As for who could pass muster, I don't care if it's one out of 100,000. If that's what it is then that's what it is.

    He also talked about the problems with unit cohesion and women in an outfit.

    Heard that one before.

    Oh, and I get the 4 oz burratas. You don't really have to add the fresh oregano and I am using a tube basil tonight as my herb garden all died from some sort of blight. I think I have the wrong pot, not enough drainage.

    Just like 2016.

    Every freaking election is the same here. I remember Larry congratulating President Romney on his wonderful victory.

    Wheeler has a 1.2 million dollar home in the West Hills of Portland, a wealthy area that overlooks the city. He also owns a home in the San Juan's. He's definitely rich, which is of course why he cares so much about, well, stuff.
