@89th said in Carol Burnett tries to stay on script: Not sure if I’m weird, but since I was a kid I really enjoyed the sitcom. The laugh track, the same house set and fake backyards. The writing always made shows witty enough to watch and often with some great/sincere scenes. Like this from Fresh Prince when Will’s biological dad shows up but bails. Trivia, you can actually hear cast members crying during this scene, off camera. Link to video Thanks for posting that, 89th. That's the proper treatment of family that all sit coms should observe, in every scene where family members speak with one another.

@Mik said in Meanwhile, in New York...: The lengths they will go to are shocking. They think they're fighting the great Satan.

Heretics: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2666496823000456 In the study (Humlum et al., 2013), the authors demonstrated that peaks of cyclic changes in air and water temperature globally precede peaks of cyclic changes in atmospheric CO2 concentration (Fig. 12). This finding supports the hypothesis that, as a result of saturation processes, emitted CO2 does not directly cause an increase in global temperature. Instead, it suggests that an increase in temperature likely leads to the release of carbon dioxide from the oceans. [image: 1714223748769-1-s2.0-s2666496823000456-gr12_lrg-resized.jpg]

Finally, a good reason to get an EV.

Yeah, I think. Look at the Dem talking points about Trump on any given weekend. How is this not a bigger story? If FOX, Newsmax, Breitbart, and various commentators and ex- politicians were discussing strategy every week and agreeing on talking points, Lester Holt or Rachel Maddow would probably be ripping their garments on air.

Saw this recently. Not a bad movie Link to video

@Jolly said in KOOL: Biden, a man of rock solid beliefs... Kool ones, too.

@Jolly said in Please throw him in that briar patch...: Please, please, please. Throw him in there. Please. Thank you Jolly. My point exactly.

Yes

@Mik said in Nekkid Pitchers: And it was all hard copy. It was even pre-fax. Never dismiss the joy of ASCII art.

@jon-nyc said in I love it when he takes me literally: Jolly brought up the casual connection, indeed a list of 10 of them. I just corrected it. In a way that ignores the strongest argument anybody has made in this thread, which is mine, about how dumb it is to consider 2, 3, and 6 incorrect, in the wake of what Trump's and Biden's SCOTUS justices have actually done.

Agreed. It’s not really debatable.

Everybody from Harriet Mires to Bill Barr to Eric Holder and Lois Lerner has defied subpoenas. The spineless congress won't issue a criminal referral...

My ejection fraction (as of last month) is 61%, so I'm good for a while.
