@Jolly, perhaps these guys, along with the author, have been on the wrong pills all along.

I think he was re-create the shooting of President Lincoln! As he fell, I heard him shout - "sic semper tyrannis"

That was interesting. And I was surprised that his law career was actually pretty short in time.

@Copper said in American Thinker u jour - Alberta Edition: Maybe we could sell statehood to help pay down the debt. We could do a franchise arrangement with countries all around the world. They could lease our Constitution. I think there are people who would like freedom. Be on your way, that’s just your Ferengi sense of humour rising to the top again.

It’s pretty vague. Hard to know what they mean by “part of the lawsuit”. Part of the settlement? Seems unlikely. Part of why the Murdoch’s are done with him? Sure, could be.

Orville and Wilbur succeded because a new process to smelt aluminum meant that aluminum became cheap, rather than more valuable than gold. They were able to use the metal in their engine to save weight, while still producing enough horsepower. The Soviets produced some great airplanes, using titanium. Far ahead of the West at one point . They did that because they had the most sophisticated titanium welding process, because they have a butt load of titanium ore, and they thought they might as well use it . Sometimes, man, material and technology all can meet in one machine.

@jon-nyc said in NY Post: "Return your Pulitzers": People who buy into Trump’s “this was all a hoax” absurdity always talk about this but the never go through the actual reporting and explain how much, if any, is inaccurate. Like Durham it also seems to be largely vibe based. Jon, you're wrong on this one.

My “longest flight” record probably clocks in at a bit over 16 hours. :man-shrugging:

@jon-nyc said in They can turn the internet off now: @Mik Right? And where the hell were those school teachers that go after 15 year olds when I was in high school??? Fuckin' A, man.

I used to work a good bit with the guys at Baylor Children's lab. Sate of the art esoteric pediatric labs. Sad to see how they have fallen...

@Jolly said in Durham Report: "Extremely troublesome failures.": I think the big question now becomes "Why?" . Silly @jolly. You really think someone's going to ask?

Give that kid an espresso or three.

I was too lazy to click on the link, so bear with. What did this "transition" involve? Was it hormonal therapy? Surgery? Or was it just cross-dressing with tuckers (shut up) and binders (shut up again)? If hormonal and surgical, these folks are in for a very rough life. Never mind, I looked. Hormonal. Had anyone looked at the long-term effects of temporary hormonal "transitioning" therapy? How reversible is it? My guess would be not very.
