  1. I shouldn’t laugh, either.
  2. Every grocery store has eight or ten or twelve available checkout lanes, and at any given time you go, exactly one of them is open as you get into a long line waiting to check out.
  3. Every time he goes on Bret Baier or something, he’s campaigning, talking about all the stuff his base want to hear, and it’s just calcifying his position. He doesn’t have to talk about political stuff like the economy, except to say he had the greatest economy in the history of the world under his watch, and more than that’s good enough. His lizard-like charm is intoxicating to his people. He could expose himself to a Girl Scout troop on Fifth Avenue and he wouldn’t lose hardly any voters.
  4. That's exactly what he was doing. I just wonder why. Seems to me the more a perps blabs, the more they got the goods on him, and the easier it will be to convict him, or have him at least plead out in a harsh bargain. But it's almost as though the cop wanted to give this guy a decent chance to get off. Since when do cops do that with arrestees? If cops want suspects to clam up and not tell them anything, why do they question suspects at all?
  5. Illinois is in the bag for Democrats, so there's nothing I can do here.
  6. is he done with the case in any event? Won't he have to be present and potentially testify at trial?
  7. Could you seriously see the same cops doing this if it were a black guy killing his kids on his property?
  8. Honestly, it's hard to take anything the Republican Party does seriously, since it is dominated by unserious performance artists, and anyone within the party who purports to be a serious statesman or -woman is an utter non-factor. The party has evolved into a malignant force against which we and the country must be defended.
  9. Back in the old days, before we were all twinkles in our daddies’ eyes, a lot of baseball corporate names would run along the lines of “The National League Base Ball Club of Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, Inc.”
  10. According to the story, the shooter started to say something, and the cop cuffing him at the time said, “You have the right to remain silent, dude, use it!” Why did the cop say this? Why was he so concerned about the perp talking? Was he concerned that the perp was going to incriminate himself further? I always imagined cops would want perps to blab on the spot to make it easier to convict them.
  11. Corporations are people, my friend.
  12. I see you're confused about this, but I think I can help you here. I was, as you suggest, keeping sight of the many factions in Ukraine that are ultra right Neo Nazi types. Hope that clears it up for you.
  13. I'm not sure how some of these fit in with Frank Zappa, especially the soft prog rockers, but I did listen to a lot of them in my long-haired schooldays.
  14. Middle School Marjorie.
  15. Time to call in the Waffen-SS?
  16. Tony Gwynn was also in the center of the radar before the strike happened in 1994.
  17. You're the guy who made the claim, so it's not up to any of us to put in the work to prove or disprove it. If you want us to believe your claim, you need to bottom line this for us in a clear and understandable manner, instead of pointing us toward a rabbit hole and saying, "I know it's true, look it up for yourself". If I did the same thing, it would be totally fair for you or anyone else to call me out on it.
  18. Yeah, I admit there are externalities involved, but it beats war mongering, creating potential for WWIII, and having our economy go down the toilet as a result of being cut off from the western world, as are some countries I can name.
  19. Withdrawing from the world in the way this graphic suggests would be a one-way ticket to economic depression, deprivation, or worse. We need world markets to maintain what Americans view as an acceptably-minimal standard of living.
  20. And so Baez hits a double not on the screws and not right at any people!
  21. Man, everything we’re hitting on the screws is right at people.
  22. I knew he had it in the bag the whole way. 😁
  23. This shows how good the pitches have been or how bad the hitters have been, depending on your point of view.
