What if they run out of swaps? Empty bleachers are also not ideal.

I wonder how RFK Jr. feels about vaccines in relation to military readiness.

For one thing, everyone smoked two packs a day, and it was no big deal. Cars got 14 MPG and spewed lead into the air and soil. It was not unusual to lose one to two weeks of school every year to whatever was going around, for which there is now a vaccine.

Apparently, the National Guard troops aren't being given much to do. Could they, or their officers, be engaged in malicious compliance? Could the lack of heads being cracked be the reason the Marines are going there?

I suppose we'll also be asked to defend the capital when the Army is depleted and the New NATO forces are inside the Beltway.

Above all, we are not exceptional. There is nothing special about the USA, no dome of divine protection that God raises and lowers depending on His mood, and our Constitution doesn't guarantee jack shit. That magical country we were led to believe in when we were children does not exist.

Oh. I watched the clip. Apparently, you can make a rouge even if the ball goes past the back of the end zone. That's really stupid.

Also, the end zone is deeper in the CFL. Easy for a long field goal attempt to go rouge.

Meh. He'll sign it in gold across the hood and auction it, proceeds to go to DJT's pocket.

I always thought the ultimate Biden power move would have been to resign on January 21, 2019, which would not only have put Kamala Harris in the Oval, but given her two bites of the apple at the polls as an incumbent.

Naah. That would be throwing in the towel.

I remember when i lived in San Antonio, actually, just outside the city limits where fireworks were allowed, people would set them off until sunrise while our cats were absolutely terrified. There is no such thing as 'enough' for some people.

Back when gold was $1600 - $1800 an ounce, i would stack a few coins, dismayed by how one cannot buy a gold sovereign without being exposed to this sort of "culture."

There might be about three grand there. He probably got his tax refund yesterday and just came from the bank.

Fress is German slang for mouth, the kind where mostly blunt language comes forth.

I hear the chocolate ration was also increased to 30 grams from 40.

Depends. If he's still in office, i might get a bottle of the good stuff and celebrate. Otherwise, i would probably treat the event the same way I might treat the country music awards - with indifference.

I do that, then head to Mickey D's afterwards. Or White Castle, or whatever.

I'll join that class action suit.

What it will require to reset legal precedent is a Democratic president to do some small portion of what T* is doing. Repeat for every EO we would want overturned by SCOTUS.

Beat me to it. I think at least two of these paid a bribe to the presidential library fund. MCD for sure.

I am not that bold, but i did file my tax return on paper this year. 50 days and counting, and the funds are still sitting in my checking account.

So gun "enthusiasts" will gravitate toward the state(s) with the laxest gun laws (ex. Texas) and leave the rest of us alone. Sounds like a good deal to me.

You're just figuring this out? No corporate support is genuine. None of it. Not even sports. You're not special just because you have a flag.

Straight pipes. More noise and less usable horsepower. Run in lower gears than necessary, and you create even more noise, along with that VROOOOOM that screams 'I have a small dick' to passersby.

Without a car. Imagine that.

Crooks don't take the bus.
My problem is that most transit systems in the USA are achingly slow. Like an hour and a half vs. 15 minutes in a car slow.
Meanwhile, you can go anywhere in Berlin, or Frankfurt, or Sofia, Bulgaria, for that matter, in a quite reasonable amount of time.

Outside of Austin, they don't care. Believe me, they don't. They're just as trumpy as the rest, and some will even go to the one of the big megachurches off Loop 1604 just to be seen by people who they think matter.

Meanwhile, look for loopholes. They specified poster size, prominent location, language, Bible version, etc., but i didn't read anything about font size. Put up a poster board of the prescribed size, and print the Ten Commandments in an area the size of a postage stamp somewhere in the middle.

And how will people react when the world calls it the American Flu?
