pfife Posted July 3 Posted July 3 I think the issue is that bsky isnt rendering images properly at the moment. I saw the graphic here earlier without issue. Quote
CMRivdogs Posted July 3 Posted July 3 Extremely glad I've never bought a Pulte built house. Overpriced and guaranteed to fall apart after 10 years Quote
romad1 Posted July 3 Posted July 3 We had the Air Show prep flyovers today. I had not seen a B2 in the wild in a long time. Unfortunately didn't get pics in time. Here are couple of snaps I did get. NOTHING can stop the US Air Force. Quote

romad1 Posted July 3 Posted July 3 And while I abhor the expense of this all for King Donald and his followers, it is cool to see the hardware. Quote

I used to work out by Willow Run airport and during the airshow, we would all sit out and watch. Of course, that was before cell phone cameras... Quote

Edman85 Posted July 4 Posted July 4 (edited) The last scene tonight of the Larry David show is worth watching. Basically, it's George Washington (played by somebody I don't want to spoil, even though its in the press) announcing he's stepping aside after two terms. Larry David speaks up to say what if.. and describes Trump. Washington keeps assuring him that would never happen. They hid who played Washington until tonight and chose the last sketch before July 4 to show it. Edited July 4 by Edman85 Quote

I cancelled my subscription to WSJ a few years ago because the editorial section would not stop kissing Trump's ass and they did it with MAGA style immaturity not becoming of WSJ. Quote
