    it is very poor to send out official things from the government with mis spellings, etc.

    Perhaps, if they had a corpse of people to deal with such things, LOL.

    Oh, sorry, I underestimated the complexity of the issue. So you are saying that the number of o’s depends on the context and you phone can still get it right? That sounds like a breakthrough in machine learning on a massive scale.

    No, it's just scared of Brenda.

    Suddenly, when I open a thread, it no longer goes in order of the post, but in reverse order. It shows the original post, then the most recent, then the one just before that, and so on... is this just me?

    It wants you to feel special.

    I've been to them in Vegas, Atlantic City, Monte Carlo, Punta del Este, and Macau.

    Monte Carlo was truly classy. Macau and Punta were high end as well, though you got the feeling it was more a local norm rather than strict rules that kept out the guys in shorts. Macau has the very same casinos you see in Vegas.

    Vegas and Atlantic City are, well, Vegas and Atlantic City.

    Thanks everybody. My dad had a surgery to remove a pancreatic cancer and his recovery has been complicated. But he is doing better and we're all more confident that he has lots of time left.

    That's amazing to hear, man.

    Yes, excellent to hear that news @Horace

    Candidates basically note the topic of the question and just recite their talking points around the topic. Sometimes at the end a quick vague answer to the actual question itself, but often not if it’s uncomfortable.

    strategic ambiguity is the right thing do.

    "Mr. President, will you denounce right wing groups?"

    The media is all over his supposed "strategic ambiguity" on this issue.

    Why excuse Joe and not Trump?

    As long as you can put “acquiescing racism” and “court packing” on different moral planes, yeah, you can excuse one but not the other.

    Try this version:
    “Mr. President, will you denounce the Nazis?”
    “Schutzstaffel, stand back and stand by.”

    I’d bet Jolly’s on cleanup duty.

    Actually, I had to help pull a guy out of the floodwater yesterday evening. Some people ain't got no sense.

    As for LSU, I enjoyed running COVID tests more than the Missouri game. That flag should be at half-mast.

    I could see how MBS pressured her to do this or she felt the need to continue to ingratiate herself with Saudi leadership.

    Does this constitute interference with our elections?

    All for it. Never seen a riot or looting of one.

    If it’s only one they’re called a tantrum and a theft.
