    She proposed it in the budget process??? That's completely inappropriate and seems deceptive. Was she trying to slip that by the media? Or it could mean she's just stoopid. The staff should have told her it was inappropriate. It will be interesting to see how far it gets in the proper process, and it will likely get more media converage because it's the second round.

    Have you seen the valuations of HBO Max, Netflix, Hulu, Disney+, all the people cutting the cable cord and going to streaming? New content is the lifeblood of these 100’s of billions of dollar bets being made. I’m sure employment is in the millions. What part of “essential” is being questioned?

    Are we talking about the deal where they verified their own compliance? That was good enough for Barry, but it ain't going to stop the bomb.

    @Jolly said in Manafort confirms "spying.": @jon-nyc said in Manafort confirms "spying.": So the FBI started investigating Manafort in 2014. I don’t think anyone here believes the FBI should stop investigating someone once a campaign hires them. FBI investigated grifter scum. Seems like that’s why we pay them. Maybe the problem is Donald Trump hiring grifter scum? Even if, as the Victorians might say, he’s behaving no better than he ought to. Don't think Trump ever hired any of the Bidens... So you’re adding evidence to support the fact that the Bidens aren’t “grifter scums”. Good show, @Jolly.

    Identified 5 very quickly. Funny, I also overlooked the large state Jon mentioned. New Mexico was the only one I didn’t find...the map is cleverly drawn to make you think they’re all there.

    Farting is a normal bodily function, farting is not the embarrassing part of what Mr. Giuliani does.

    I've done the first one. With a Browning pump, much like the guy in the video has.

    @George-K said in 30%?: Dr. Scott Gottlieb told CNBC on Monday that nearly one-third of U.S. residents could ultimately be infected by the coronavirus at the end of 2020. Back in June, I was thinking 30, maybe 40 before vaccine rollout.

    I will also be looking into this as soon as I figure out which graphics card I can actually purchase. The new Nvidia cards dropped the USB C connector for video which, if I remember correctly, certain VR headsets use. The new AMD Radeon cards retain the USB C video out port. I haven't done a lot of research yet, just some casual reading here and there. Whatever it turns out to be, it has to work with the RC Heli Simulators.

    @Loki said in Finley’s working on building a strong immune system...: @Mik said in Finley’s working on building a strong immune system...: We grew up in dirt, weeds, creek water, fish guts, dead critters, snakes and cowpies. Pretty stout immune systems we. Very true. I do wonder a little if not being out and about is weakening my immune system. It’s world is about 1/10 of what it’s ever known. It takes a very long time for something like that to happen. Much, much longer than a few months.
