    @kluurs said in Hey guys - something to add to your workout: I possess and am the subject of some of the worst looking running photos of ALL time. I have friends who look great. One woman friend had a picture of her taken in the late stages of a marathon with her smiling and looking like she should be on the cover of Vogue. I look like a before picture to be included in Morticians Monthly Magazine. I have seen these pictures, you have a talent at getting the photographer to hit the shutter button as you hit the pavement and your face makes the most gravitational pose EVAH. Still, you're running, so you're 10/10 awesome in my book.

    She'll probably win. The left doesn't like her as much as you'd think since she's a bit wishy-washy-Washington. I do remember seeing her on a flight once, and she didn't seem that wishy washy. Anyway... as long as the pillow cocaine con man doesn't get close to that office, I'm fine.

    Oh yeah you can find film of McCauliff's parents watching, it's an uncut 5-10 minutes or so. Of course they were being filmed for their positive reaction not expecting to capture their realization of what they just saw. Mind boggling. One of the engineers who had been warning against the launch just recently died, apparently he was filled with guilt but according to his widow he recently found peace as many people wrote him to tell him it wasn't his fault. Of course Artmeis II is being pushed back a few days already for delayed testing... mainly because that area of Florida is going to see sub-freezing temps here soon.... which was the main cause of the above explosion. Now the launch I think is NET (no earlier than) Feb 12 instead of Feb 6...

    Hard to beat 1983. Heck, Kelly took his team to FOUR straight superbowls. Don't ask him how many they won.

    Well this makes sense. He doesn’t want to lower prices, he wants them nice and high. Good policy choice then. https://x.com/unusual_whales/status/2016994260327842125?s=46

    From what I have read, Warsh appears to be qualified for the job. Hasset too, but he’s a brown nosing jerk off.

    Wait, let me get this straight… The IOC (one of the most corrupt organizations in the world) commissioned a study that says if we don’t stop driving to work, then they will have fewer cities bribe them to let them build expansive new athletic venues that will only support a single event, ever, where thousands of athletes and millions of spectators will be flown from around the world to watch? No hypocrisy, there…

    More extortionist rhetoric from the WH: "Based on the fact that Canada has wrongfully, illegally and steadfastly refused to certify the Gulfstream 500, 600, 700 and 800 Jets, one of the greatest, most technologically advanced airplanes ever made, we are hereby decertifying their Bombardier Global Expresses, and all Aircraft made in Canada, until such time as Gulfstream, a Great American Company, is fully certified," the president wrote. https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/trump-tariffs-decertify-canadian-planes-9.7067498
