  1. Will we be seeing this sort of thing in the Trump Memorial Ballroom in the not to distant future? Or maybe the Trump (er) Kennedy Center. It’s his kind of entertainment
  2. While in Halifax, NS we took a tour that included a visit to the Grand Pre UNESCO Site The site commemorates the Grand Pré area as a centre of Acadian settlement from 1682 to 1755 and the Deportation of the Acadians, which began in 1755 and continued until 1762 My wife got this shot,
  3. We’ve spent the last week cruising in the Canadian Maritimes. Atlantic Time, one hour ahead of EDT, last night we reentered EDT, however ship time stayed on Atlantic time until this morning when we turned the clocks ahead. My semi intelligent watch decided to skip ahead early. Back in Boston officially tomorrow where we enter standard time. Does anybody really know what time it is
  4. It don’t matter to me. But if you’re a Christian Nationalist it might matter to your brood. Especially if you’re trying to hold a crazy faction together. I don’t give a flying fickle of fate about what they believe. It’s how they practice what they say they believe. These guys are in your teepee not mine
  5. Ellison only cares about the bottom line $$$.
  6. JD should know better, he’s a big boy. Besides Erika looks like she was dressed like a couch for Halloween. Maybe he just couldn’t control himself
  7. Keep in mind that Vance’s wife, and mother of his two offspring, is currently rejecting converting to the upcoming National Religion………… (or at least to what I’ve seen on line)
  8. 1986-97 mostly in the minors https://www.baseball-reference.com/register/player.fcgi?id=goff--001jer https://www.baseball-reference.com/bullpen/Jerry_Goff
  9. A couple of years ago we saw To Kill a Mocking Bird with Richard Thomas. Once again well attended (Trump would have never let that production in). We were back the next night for The Band's Visit. The Center could use a little refreshing, but Trump has taken away a lot of performances, and many have canceled. What's left very few people want to attend.
  10. Just adding I remember arguments here about elected leaders picking winners and losers in business. If I remember conservatives were against that sort of thing
  11. Today’s JVL You’re worried about Mamdani? The real socialism is coming from inside the White House. edit, making the last post a bit less cumbersome.
  12. BTW at least the Democrats appear to be in DC. The SOH just extended the Trumpublicans vacation by another week. If they were serious the SOH would call for a vote
  13. All Trump really wants is his own HGTV show
  14. I love this response. The way he reframes and answers the question. More reps need to do this
  15. What if Obama had actually showed some force against future MAGAs that cartooned him as a monkey or even as a Muslim. Interestingly enough the two most maligned presidents in my lifetime were better examples of what I was taught in my Presbyterian Sunday School than what I see coming out of so called religious institutions like Liberty U and Turning Point
  16. I get what you’re talking about to a point but the CBS of today is not the CBS of 50 years ago or even 25. And the Ellisons of today are not the Paleys of the 50s, 60s, and 70s.. Go back and watch Ed Murrow’s RTNDA Speech or look at Clooney’s Good Night and Good News. Owners then were still concerned about advertising dollars and viewship but there was still the wall between news and editorial content. That wall fell when cable and Fox News came into being. And business owners stopped caring about the public good and more about profit and stock prices
  17. Just like Midas in reverse. Everything he gets his sticky little fingers on dies..
  18. Technically Pittsburgh is my home city. We lived outside McKeesport about 30 miles away until I was 12. Really hadn't been back to spend much time there with the eXception of visiting a few relatives until last year. My wife had a conference, I got to explore.
  19. Two good museums. Especially the Heinz. If you are looking for other options, head toward the Natural History Museum, not far from the Pitt campus. Near there, a few blocks away is the left field wall from Forbes Field. I believe Home plate is inside the Law School. I would also recommend Point State Park. The museum there is interesting. This was the site of the fort during the French and Indian war. Some nice views of the football stadium there as well
  20. May need to stock up on more popcorn
  21. October 31, https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/october-31
  22. Some folks still feel this way but for different reasons
  23. He needs to find the proper meme
  24. You realize trolls very seldom think for themselves. Especially self righteous ones
