    By the way I don’t remember much venue shopping with Trump. They could have argued for NJ instead of FL for a more friendly jury (potentially) but didn’t. And Trump ended up with that incompetent magat judge that kept getting pimp slapped by the 11th circuit.

    Yeah I can see the 87 year old next door navigating biometric IDs on her flip phone no problem.

    Again, why bother? Let's keep spending money we don't have, to pay people to do nothing, while the country's education system slides further into an abyss. If you've got a better idea than DeSantis, let's hear it.

    @Axtremus said in Where did all the spines go?: @Copper said in Where did all the spines go?: I think most people would assume he is a fictional character invented by the NYT guy. Isn't that what the NYT does? Are you saying that it is? An unnamed source told him.

    Horseshoes have equal sides. I suspect this is a very unequal horseshoe.

    Congress's lack of diligence is a major reason we are where we are. They've been kicking many cans down the road a long, long time.

    What’s cool too is advances is charging technology means the battery doesn’t have to be as big because the range doesn’t have to be as large. Then it weighs less, uses less power. A virtuous circle.

    I doubt they expect all these acts to stand, but expected challenges. We will see how it all shakes out.

    Horseshoe theory? More like "the right vs left dichotomy is intellectually lazy garbage" theory.

    @LuFins-Dad said in 6/131: And Jaxson Dart. That one's interesting. He needs to sit for a year or two. I've watched the guy play... He's gotten better every year he's played, with his completion percentage, QB rating, total yards and YPC going up each year. But Lord, he's like the little girl with the curl...He plays lights out for a couple of games and then has a clunker. TBH, his skill set is very similar to Rattler, who is already in the building.

    Actually, Luke and I had started watching an Apple TV thriller about something similar happening in the Antarctic.

    I suppose it's tricky where one chooses one's burial plot when a dead spouse and a remarriage are involved. Should the newly deceased widow/widower be buried next to the deceased spouse? If so where should the new spouse be buried when the new spouse dies? Posthumous three way just doesn't sound all that exciting when it comes to burial plot selection.

    Where did you get the number from? I only saw references to Trump saying hunter "had up to 18 agents" in South Africa with him.

    I once had an assignment at AID to get the AID GS employees to stop using punch cards (it was 1979) for their computer code. The bosses wanted them to use terminals, but the government programmers wouldn't trust them. They trusted cards they could hold in their hands. Really. The solution? Take away all the furniture they used to store the cards. That made the programmers give up and start using terminals to write code. Maybe Mr. Trump could take away all the employees desks and chairs. Eventually they'll get tired and go away.
