The New Coffee Room

This sounds a lot like learning to play music. A million fundamentals and technicalities and random bits of knowledge going together in order to produce something that is miles above all those details.

That is one smart little girl.

How is that guy not an alcoholic?

Whoever replaces Trump in office is going to spend his first four years just taking Trump's name and picture off all the places and things that Trump stuck his name and picture on.

Aldi has great fish and lousy wine. TJ has great flowers and great wine. What's best in Aldi is the real German products which are sprinkled around the store.

I'm not very concerned if they happen to control congress.

And Trump doesn't pay any attention to the Congress when he has Republican control, I don't see why he would give them any attention if they are under the control of the Democrats.

Yea I had the same phone as Bach except in black. It came fully equipped with an answering machine called, "Mom."

People act a whole lot richer than they actually are. Cars stopped being mode of transportation and started being bling all that coupled with easy credit is just a disaster. Same goes for the real estate business.

Hugely damning of security for the President and the event. It makes you think that if he had some backup he could have done some real damage.

I wonder why he was OK with Kash Patel?

And that's not "anti-Christian" rhetoric as reported in the press. The guy is saying he IS a Christian and killing an oppressor is the kind of thing a Christian should do.

I remember I was in Mexico tramping through ruins. I usually put news on "hold" when I'm traveling but there's some news you can't escape. I remember buying a newspaper in Spanish (which I can't read) and trying to figure out what a Chernobyl was and why it mattered.

Hopefully AI will get smart enough to replace transcendental geniuses.

Actually, I think geniuses have been replaced by people with high functioning spectrum disorder already.

I really have no problem with Van Dyke making a couple of bucks on all of this. He's a master sergeant so he wasn't any top brass and the operation could have gone sideways anytime before it was actually executed. We ALL know there was a heavy navy and troop build up before the strike happened just we all knew the price of oil was going to go up before the Iran war started. Van Dyke bet on it while we just posted about it on TNCR.

Here's Mik literally picking up the guitar and playing.

It's not a big deal. These kinds of things sometimes happen with mathematical and scientific geniuses way ahead of their time. In 50-100 years when the world catches up, this will be just another instance of people finding out how brilliant Trump is.

Can we please just bomb them to hell and move on?

Gas up your cars ASAP!

I was thinking it was the New Hobbiton for the nuclear based real world cutting edge Hobbits of the 21st Century.

Florida tax laws berry berry good to me!

All to watch a car drive by.

It's ok to have an ass-clown or two in the cabinet in places like Homeland Security or Commerce but for the Department of War the country needs a really competent person.

Putin.

He'd be eliminated in a nuclear exchange but it's brought up in his conversations. I'm sure he knows that. And patriotic death is OK for those idiots on the front but it hardly makes for a long range plan of victory for a glorious leader.
