@89th said in Shapiro vs Swalwell: "Farewell to Arms is ummm, a great book, about one man's journey to say goodbye to his gun collection. People aren't sure who wrote the book, but many people have said it has changed their lives. The end." My presentation: Farewell to Arms: An Amputees tale.

Mike Johnson smiled.

@Copper said in Biden to nominate Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to Supreme Court: Today's big Ketanji news is that she is unable to define what is a woman. She was asked for her definition during today's hearing. Her answer: no, I'm not a biologist. Tucker is all over it. On related note: Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-Ga.) voted with Republicans on Thursday to block the nomination of Judge Sarah Netburn, who garnered significant controversy after ruling a transgender woman convicted of sex crimes should be transferred to a federal women’s prison. It marked a rare instance of a Democrat breaking with the majority to bottle up one of President Biden’s judicial nominees in committee. Netburn came under sharp criticism from Republican senators after she told Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), the ranking member of the Judiciary Committee, that she didn’t know whether it is possible to determine a person’s sex by analyzing their chromosomes. When asked about determining sex by chromosomal analysis, the nominee told Graham, “I have never studied biology and therefore I am unqualified to answer this question.” https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/senate/3078046/biden-judicial-nominee-transgender-rapist-case-rejected-senate/

Nope. But I don't know of a country store down here I can't walk into and not be able to buy shotgun shells and rifle bullets.

@LuFins-Dad said in Firings at CBS: Really? She could have gone to any number of more independent journalists… Weiss, Taibbi, and such… But instead she goes Tucker? Thought the same thing. Supposedly she has a stellar reputation for being a dogged reporter. Gotta wonder why she left Fox a few years ago. Money or ideology.

My only concern is I wonder how many people would view that as a four day weekend for trips. You take the Monday and there you go, 4 days vacation. I've heard some people vacation on Memorial Day instead of recognize our fallen heroes, for example.

There are too many civilians providing services in the military.

I think they’d get more support if they defined what exact changes they wanted to make. I’m at least encouraged that someone is trying to do this the right way rather than by fiat.

Having said that, let me save you some money. If you don't mind the weight, Lodge makes a decent skillet. It just needs some help. Here's how you help it: https://m. Link to video

No Chicago dog or Cheese Coney either.

@Klaus said in (Another) fire at Notre Dame: That's a different Notre Dame, not the Notre Dame. Yes, just I was mistaken. It's just another church in France ablaze.

@Copper Thanks. That is quite interesting.

That elephant was perturbed, but not crazy pissed. When they're really angry, they tend not to trample. They tend to grab the offending critter with their trunk and slam the critter (or person) repeatedly into nearby trees or into the ground. Oftentimes, they don't quit until they only have a remnant of the body left in their trunk, having scattered pieces around them.
