@jodi said in Is plaid coming back?: Totally agree, hate the too tight suits. Especially the pants. I was at a meeting this week, and this bloke showed up wearing a jacket and too tight pants that were also a little short. I rather suspect he wasn't wearing socks. It turns out he was French. Another failure of multiculturalism.

Cajun. Andouille, crawfish & shrimp.

The Israelis are the only wealthy people in the world who can’t move to a better neighborhood.

Payton and Belichick are from the Parcels coaching tree. There will be discipline in the clubhouse. Payton can be an ass, of course.

Catchy, if corny. My cousin has a small mill and a kiln (probably could dry a couple of thousand feet). I've got a heckuva burl on an oak I'm tempted to cut. If it doesn't have too many voids, might make some real pretty stuff...

@Jolly said in Carlson's Take on Israel: @Doctor-Phibes said in Carlson's Take on Israel: @Jolly said in Carlson's Take on Israel: Admittedly, I haven't watched it, but Tucker is an American First type. Take his comments in light of that. How did that work out last time? As with most things, depends. Without Pearl Harbor, I'm not sure at what point America would have joined into WW2. There has been a strong aversion to foreign wars in a significant percentage of the population since the days of George Washington. George didn't have nearly the international companies, trade routes and communications we do. Today's Americans can set up an international business in hours. And let's not forget the military technology capable of leveling whole countries or an army of one attacking our power grid from their mom's basement across the water. Progress makes isolationism ridiculous.

Kiwi is fine. Don't care for scotch.

Let them then push the lot of them into the sea.

Yes, for example he almost certainly had the privilege of getting rejected from universities on account his ethnicity.

I am not surprise with this at all. Maybe one of our economic experts here can explain, but I always shake my head when I hear about a new casino and that it will generate USD$XXXXMM. Hmmm, if people were not spending that money at the casino, I dont think they would just be putting it in their pillows. They would be spending it at other places. If someone is going to spend USD$500 in a month on entertainment, and if the casino is built, they spend USD$300 there, most (not everyone, but most) will not increase their entertainment budget by USD$300/month. They would just cut back on entertainment somewhere else.

In the latest one he covers ‘siege warfare’ for the first 5m or so in response to listener questions.

... we need a policy change that would enable overseas manufacturers to sell products in the U.S. that already have received marketing approval from certain foreign governments with standards comparable to those of the U.S. FDA, and vice versa. I am sure that there is something I am overlooking (like maybe the number of participants and variety of participants in US drug trail), but it does seem to make sense. I would think that there are other countries who have as strict of guidelines for approving a new drug as the US.

Yes, that is interesting reading. Thanks for posting.

Gotta die from something...

I assume the sector numbers are month over month.

@George-K said in Hay George: Wow. Did you spot those before I posted about it being Midjourney? Yeah. But I look at a shitload of photos on the daily for photo edits and the like at the day job. I'm not looking for AI, but I'm looking for problems and mistakes so same thing.

I was amazed they bought him to begin with.
