A very brave man and a heckuva pilot.

Hey, I remember the Big O.

That was back in the day when it was actually fun to watch the NBA.

@George-K i did my car rental reservation for my upcoming trip through expedia, got a confirmation number, then went directly to the customer service of the rental company (dollar rent) and put in the confirmation number and got a message saying my reservation with them is confirmed....

@jon-nyc

I agree it is a good piece. He hits the nail squarely on the head regarding Trudeau as a champion of identity politics. That has been his brand throughout his tenure in office. This time to his lasting detriment as leader of the Liberal Party. His leadership was already in question - after losing his majority in 2019 and being forced into a minority then repeating it again without any seat gains in an extremely unpopular and unnecessary election last September. I suspect that sooner rather than later, he will either announce he is stepping down or the Liberal Party machine will do it for him in order to bring the party back towards its more traditional and centrist base.

@taiwan_girl Thank you.

Problem is, maybe there's not much the government can do...Because of the financial response to COVID in many first world nations, inflation was guaranteed.

You've never been to Austin, have you Ax?

Pretty song

Wow Horace! Sending hugs and positive thoughts to you!!!

Wow. Interesting story.

big toe replacing one of his thumbs.

That's been pretty much standard for a long time.

I wonder what the level of his functionality is.

We don’t obey in this country.

How many of you know someone who died needlessly from COVID because of ignorant 'Murrican values?

Fuck this guy. From the morons who invoke their "rights" to eat dewormer paste and get deathly ill instead of get a damn shot to the morons who invoke their "rights" to have safe spaces and get co-workers fired because they consider height a micro-aggression, we don't need any more rights in America. We're children run amok and breaking shit in Pier One because our parents have a soft touch. We need responsibilities, personal and social.

Show me what you're doing to practice responsible citizenship out there in the world. If you are, please double down, because we have a shortage. If all you're doing is demanding your "rights" be honored, shove your exceptionalism and your rights firmly up your ass.

I’ve always felt that way too many Americans focus on “rights” and I have long championed a “Bill of Responsibilities” to temper people’s perceived “rights”.

I hear ideas like that from a whole lot of people who only mention it after I bring it up first. Just sayin'.

Hank Miller.

The Sin City guy? What the hell does he have to do with any of this?

I mixed him up with another guy, Heinrich Mueller. Sorry.

Miller Mueller what’s the difference?

😄

On Monday, the Faculty Council of the University of Texas at Austin approved, on a 41-to-5 vote with three abstentions, a resolution rejecting “any attempts by bodies external to the faculty to restrict or dictate the content of university curriculum on any matter, including matters related to racial and social justice.” The resolution said the council will “stand firm against any and all encroachment” on faculty authority, including by the legislature.

It would be better if leftists weren't so racist.

@Jolly

Okay, I assumed you were referring to farm exports into Upper and Lower Canada. Seemed a bit off, being that both colonies were more than self sustaining in agriculture.

Farm exports to Britain and Ireland, yes of course.

@Mik said in US warns Ukraine invasion may be imminent. Ukraine disagrees.:

Looks like brinksmanship, but it's hard to say. The opportunity for misperception here is huge.

Seems to be a marked increase in artillery and mortar exchanges since the closing ceremonies of the Olympics. Provocations? Possibly.

I am guessing “one short of assiNINE.”
