  1. Yes. And he got dumped pretty much by republicans. 🙂
  2. When have republicans ever made anything better for the poor or disabled?
  3. We always throw in our change into a container we have then when it's full go to Lowe's and use the coinstar machine there and use it as a Lowe's gift card to pay for something around the house we want... like blinds or whatever. But we use cash less and less so that's slowed down a little.
  4. I didn’t get a chance to watch that link but I know the CBS broadcast cut some of Derek’s work.
  5. Feb 9, 1773 William Henry Harrison was born. 9th US president and first to die in office. Also the shortest term, just a month. It was legend that he got pneumonia from not wearing an overcoat and getting sick from the rain during his inauguration. Later investigations determined it was septic shock due to poor sanitation. his death creates a crisis as it wasn’t a sure thing whether the VP became president or just carried out the duties as “acting president”. The cabinet resisted until the chief Justice confirmed he’s a real president if he takes the oath of office and congress passed a resolution confirming Tippecanoe is responsible for Detroit being a part of the US instead of Canada. He negotiated the treaty of springwells at Ft Wayne in Detroit which established peace with the Indians and granted pardons.
  6. And it stops at LZ II. I knew it was 2 hours and I am looking and my watch then realized it’s called “becoming…” I knew how they got started, what they did before , etc. a big bonus was archived interviews from Bonham which they said had never been heard before. It fit in well. John Paul Jones is a funny guy, I call him the most talented living member, and it came thru in his clips.
  7. Isn’t only relevant if those 200K deciders are in swing congressional districts or swing senate states up in ‘26 or ‘28? The only way to potentially stop the madness is a change in congress. I don’t see very many congressional republicans growing a conscience.
  8. I saw this tonight. Only authorized LZ documentary in which they participated in. As a huge Zep fan I will say I didn’t learn hardly anything new. However visually I saw performances I never saw before. In crystal clear color. In fact outside of the widely available Denmark show from their beginning all of the live performance footage was new to me and I feel comfortable saying I’ve consumed all available media about them. I’m sure the audio wasn’t the same show but it sounded very good. If you are a fan I recommend it. I could have used a little less music and more talking though.
  9. One of the home playoff games last year was the same night as red wings opening nignt. I think it was game 4.
  10. I have a hard time believing that people who confirm the likes of Hegseth and Gabbard and eventually Bobby Jr will do anything down the line. If the House flips they could impeach him a couple more times but I don’t see the senate flipping in ‘26 and the Senate, I don’t think, is required to have a trial. His people can break the law but the FBI won’t go after anybody. The US atttorneys won’t investigate. Judges won’t be able to stop everything and trump will just pardon people who do break the law. All norms are gone.
  11. Don’t act like you knew
  12. The only reaon you criticize Harris or whoever for Bergman not signing is if he’s not offering a fair contract. Which we have no way of knowing. You can’t force a player to sign a deal. You don’t just pick them off a shelf like groceries.
  13. No class. No dignity. Trump and the GOP are an ashtray full of cheap cigarettes used condoms
  14. Mason is a youth hockey name.
  15. You are wrong.
  16. What definitive information from a birth certificate will satisfy this requirement? Are you aware that biologically it's not a 50/50 choice? What about those kids? They can't play sports?
  17. that's because he's a cuck.
  18. What's the enforcement trigger? Can someone just say "Hey, I think that person is trans...." Is there an inspection? Is it the honor system? I know lots of "husky" girls who could beat the crap out of me in sports. Would they have been asked to show their goods to some creepy pedo religious person?
  19. yeah we know the GOP loves their little girls
  20. I read an article around the time of one of the big jackpots advising you on what to do if you win it. You need lawyers, accountants, financial advisors, estate planners... probably more people to watch them... heck I'd want security if I had to go public. I don't want any of that. Nothing I could get in material goods or experiences would make that worthwhile. You just trade one job for another (managing your money). Then everybody knows you as "the guy that won all that money" and they'll resent you even if they say they don't. If I were given the choice of something like "Here's $50K a year, tax free, for the rest of your life that will increase 3% a year" or "Here's $500 million". I'd seriously consider the first option.
  21. I don’t think they signal anything to the beat writers. Either way.
  22. Remember when Obama called out the SC during his SOTU about this and Alito mouthed "that's not true". It caused a fuss. First for him supposedly breaking tradition by going after them. Then for supposedly being wrong. I think at that point they decided the Justices didn't need to attend but some do as a token representation of that branch. I'm sure at the time I was calling Obama lots of names. Imagine... the horror of a President personally attacking someone in an official capacity, rather than on a campaign trail. We need honor and dignity. Can't have some guy going off half cocked like Jerry Springer. right, national review?
  23. oblong
