I saw this story on our local news. HIs backstory is interesting. Pack-a-day smoker for about 10 years, then vaping. Got the flu and I assume a bacterial superinfection which trashed his lungs.

Well, they did bring slaves back from various other areas. Were Neanderthals black?

It certainly was. They're going to drag all sorts of things in under that umbrella and claim them to be protected.

Didn’t know that they have “extra long cuff” version. That will be my go-to the next time I need to restock.

@LuFins-Dad said in If Virginia was a bellwether, Republicans are in trouble: @Doctor-Phibes said in If Virginia was a bellwether, Republicans are in trouble: There are other contraceptive choices available. Not to sound like Captain Woke or anything, but what the pill did was give women control over the means of contraception. There are, yes. But only the condom predates the pill, and its effectiveness was nowhere near as good as the pill. IUD’s an implants can later, and are more effective, but their development was largely influenced by the effect that the pill had on cultural mores. Never overlook the ease of the BCP.

Good story. In a practical sense, we are all Jews, for the purposes of this Israel/Hamas thing. The Israelis are not hated because they're Jewish, they're hated because they are a first world advanced civilization in the middle of a third world shithole. A Christian nation there wouldn't be getting along with its neighbors any better. The college students chanting "from the river to the sea" don't have any animus against Jewish people per se. They hate first world white colonialists.

@Jolly said in 17 days: I think he wears blame where blame is due. Compare him against the Koch brothers and get back to me. I don't need to. I just compared him to Rupert Murdoch. If you don't think that guy has an unhealthily large influence I don't know what to say.

@Mik said in Floods and Gas Leaks on Election Day: @Doctor-Phibes That would depend on how you planned to do it. My plan would be so incredibly cunning, that even Private Baldrick would be impressed. I'd secretly arrange for the opposition to choose a complete wanker to run.

For her sake I hope she got paid up front

You need to borrow some of Mark's gear.

Do any US car makers make sedans anymore ?

Wonder if the climbers tip the server? (JUST KIDDING!!!!!!!)

Y'all I used to eat here in the 1970's...That's when it was a club. To be in the club, you had to be white. What can I say, it's Mississippi. Small town Mississippi. Things change. They'd even let Jon in there now, even if he is a damnyankee (for those of you who are ignorant "damnyankee" is one word and is pronounced as such. Even genteel, church-going little old ladies refer to our Northern citizens as damnyankees. The Dinner Bell... https://www.thedinnerbell.net/history/ Link to video
