Trump is what would happen if that loser drunk uncle that talks about how he’d turn the Middle East to glass if he were president became president.

Wait a minute--so we killed him while he was on a diplomatic mission?
Yep. Trump was leaning towards a measured response, but happened to be channel surfing and landed on a midnight Lethal Weapon showing.

Is this really a concern? I mean, borderlandbeat was posting pics of bodies hanging from bridges and heads littering the NL town square like a decade ago, and I'm not aware of there having been a spike in spillover violence here in the US. I can see this being concerning if you have relatives in Mexico or have to travel there for business, but for the rest of us who can keep visits to Mexico constrained to meals at Enchiladas Y Mas? It seems like we have much more proximal concerns worthy of our anxiety.

Well, given the collective intelligence exhibited by Americans these days, I'm going with it being a no-shit alien invasion that everyone thinks is a bunch of fucking drones in an inverse of Orson Welles' War of the Worlds.

Thought #1: While I am horrified that Trump is in charge while this is playing out, Iraq/Iran/the ME is a problem he inherited. The only right decision was never to invade Iraq in the first place.
Thought #2: Given the number of decisions of similar scale that Trump makes flippantly on a regular basis, I wonder what problems of his origin that we'll be dealing with 2 decades from now?-

Gonna need some promo loops....and good for you.
Thanks for the encouragement and holding me accountable
. This is as good as I can do at the moment. Its the second original songlette I've recorded since getting back on the guitar, after maybe 8-9 months back playing regularly. Its also kind of my first foray into digital and modeling, going straight to macbook and using a Bias FX plugin within garageband for signal processing. I don't know wtf I am doing as far as mixing and eq, so while I like the song and am reasonably happy with my playing at this point, I'm not at all happy with the tone, mix and mastering. I don't really have a desire to build up audio-engineering skills, so not sure that will improve. Definitely not in 2020.
For these live gigs, I'm probably going to do a mix of 2/3rds covers and 1/3rd originals. At least start with that ratio and see what the reaction is. The covers will be primarily 60's/70's songs that everyone will recognize, things like "Oye Como Va", "Hotel California" and "Comfortably Numb". I'm toying with the idea of shortening the songs and making them fully instrumental. I'm much less confident singing than I am playing guitar.

Happy new years fuckers. My resolution is to pick out a tune every week.
Mine is to start playing live again regularly (last time was 20 years ago), and I have a twice a month contract with my wife to allow it (pics on xtube). I've been talking to a local pub owner I know and I got the go ahead to play there on Thursday nights whenever I want as soon as I put together a set list. It will be me with a guitar, microphone and either backing tracks or a looper + bass9 & beatbuddy pedal. Slightly terrifying, so considering going full buckethead to hide from the audience. Wish me luck.
Other goal (not really a resolution) for 2020 is to decide if I want to stick with pedals and valve amps or go full digital skynet. I have a Line6 Helix LT being delivered today that I will (hopefully) use to replace most of my pedals into the Vox AC30 for live and direct to macbook for recording. I am intrigued about the state of amp modeling w/FRFR speakers, so I want to experiment some and see if I want to go that route. For the live scenario I described where I will need to reproduce a range of instruments for an audience, just having the helix, full-range powered speakers and a looper or iphone w/backing tracks has a strong minimalists appeal to me.-

Let's not minimize Clinton's misdeeds. My view is that his conduct, both with regard to the sexual harassment (as a subordinate Lewinski's "consent" was tainted) and the perjury to the grand jury rendered him unfit to remain in office.
One need not defend Clinton to justify the actions against Trump.
I’m not trying to defend Clinton, simply to point out the paradox between the special investigator’s and opposition party’s approach to ensuring a proper investigation in his case vs Trump’s.

Has the congressional democrat’s death rate caught up to the congressional republican’s retirement rate yet?

To a grand jury and in a civil suit (Paula Jones, IIRC). http://academic.brooklyn.cuny.edu/history/johnson/clinton_impeachment_articles.htm
But see Article IV, relating to the impeachment investigation.
One of Clinton's partners in the Whitewater real-estate investment scandal was Susan McDougal, and she refused to testify to a grand jury put together by Kenn Starr and spent 22 months in jail. She says she refused to testify to prevent perjuring herself, not to protect Bill Clinton. Clinton later pardoned her to end her time in prison. Ultimately, all that could be proven against Clinton is that he lied under oath about receiving a blow job in the white house from a subordinate. While that lie under oath was a crime, it was not a threat to democracy, free and fair elections, our constitution or the basic tenets of shared power and checks and balances that serve as a foundation our nation is constructed upon. Nothing Clinton was accused of was a threat to those things and the events around Whitewater happened well before his Presidency began.
Trump has both overtly and covertly solicited foreign powers to interfere in both the 2016 and 2020 presidential elections in his favor. He has openly obstructed congress' and a special investigator's authority to investigate these matters and told those closest to his conduct to not comply with subpoenas and otherwise refuse to offer testimony. So let us say that is it, there is nothing else to be found if all stones could be turned over. Well, those actions alone are absolutely threats to our democracy, free and fair elections, our constitution, shared power and checks and balances.
So those closest to Trump are honoring his requests and refusing to testify under oath. Why are they not in jail like Susan McDougal? Why are the Democrats not enforcing the constitution and ensuring that either:- These people's testimony is heard
- They get tossed in jail for willful non-compliance with the law
- They have to violently resist the law to avoid testifying or going to jail
Instead, the Dems are going to let people like Mulvaney and the President himself avoid testifying. They are settling for calling a few witnesses distal to the President and providing an incomplete picture of his conduct to an American people that are mostly blasé about politics. And most here say, "Fuck yeah! Look at the polling! The GOP is going to hang themselves trying to protect Trump!" Well, if polling was reliable, Trump would have never been President. And you can bet in 2020 there will be a more rabid base turning out at near 100% coupled with more efforts both foreign and domestic to subvert the votes of everyone else.
As a final thought for those finding comfort in this quixotic impeachment effort and the polls showing some support for impeachment and removal: How did polling suddenly become so unreliable in 2016? Is it that there was some hidden glitch in all the algorithms that was suddenly exposed by Trump? Or was there some other factor(s) involved that influenced the election results and made pre-election polls unreliable? If it is the latter, what has happened between 2016 and now to ensure it doesn't happen again?-

We should win the conference title and be a playoff contender assuming Sam doesn't bolt (he won't), stays healthy (crosses fingers) and Tom's coaching hires pan out (maybe). Every position except possibly receiver will have the experience, quality and depth on par with a top 5 team. Last night showed how good this collection of players can be when not decimated by injuries and/or being coached by a staff that is its own worst enemy.

So should this be the start of Trump’s American death count resulting from killing Soleimani? No claim of being directly related, but the timing is suspicious.
