That's awesome!!!!

@jon-nyc thanks!!

I'm only missing the hydraulic motion actuators. $2,000-$3,000 would fix that.

What the more experienced blues men - musicians in general I suppose - learn is when not to play to leave space. With Clapton’s nerve challenges I’m sure he has as well. BB King is a great example.

@Horace Thank you, Horace! You are also a man of good taste. Your opinion is to be respected, too. It's good to be in your company.

Not to worry, his pet dummkopf, Witkoff, is checking the mail and looking after the house while he’s away.

@Mik & @LuFins-Dad I got that one, but missed the question about Madison and the Federal Papers.

Brilliant.

I may just borrow one from my brother for a while to see if it sticks.

LOL I heard about that. The wanted the current Czech president to read it as it was opened, and it was a good thing that he declined.

To the original thread post. I don’t think I’ve seen him since. But this thread seemed like a good place for this: https://x.com/interesting_ail/status/1968593846717095953?s=46

Nah ... I won't be there for quite a while yet. Besides, that's more Aqua's style.

@Mik said in Uh oh: Ooopsie. Hoisted on his own petard...again. Ha, good line

Well, I USED to like hotpot.

@Axtremus said in Deporation - Not Just for Spanish people any more: 2026 is less than four months away. How big a deal is it in the realm of multi-$billion construction projects? Yeah but they didn’t specify what month.
