    Now that I think about it it might be Chad or Kevin in the afternoons.  I don't know.  

    It wouldn't be Chad, he's just a goof.  Might be Kevin.  He hit his Peter Principle about 15 years ago.  (Hi Kevin!)

  2. I don't really recall mind-blowing coffee experiences in France, either.  Best I've had was an Americano in Barcelona, Spain.  I don't know if Spanish coffee is a thing or if that was just that particular coffee shop, but I'll never forget it.

    I'm interested in trying the home-roasted angle.  Is a roaster necessary, or is the "whirly-pop" technique viable?

  3. BK is a legit talent.  Trey is probably the one who drives Your Mom nuts with the cultivated cynicism.  At least BK is funny . . . and young enough to actually have a future in the business.

    For those who listen to The Horn on FM (104.9) -- does it ever buffer and wrap back a few seconds?  I can't tell if it's my car radio or the station itself.  Doesn't happen with other FM stations.  I'm about to just switch to the app.

    Occam’s Razor.  He fucked up a speech to a bunch of Jews a few days ago, he’s not polling well among many Jews.   Spend 5 minutes signing an EO and taking a photo, and as far as he’s concerned, everything will be kosher.  “Somebody says I offended some of you, here’s something to show I care, and now you can do me a favor and vote for me.”

    He's never gonna poll well with Jews.  According to Pew Research, they run about 64/26/9 (Democrat/Republican/Independent).

    You may be right, it may be little more than an attempt to look magnanimous, but most of my Jewish friends are pissed.

  5. I can't even fathom how much he must hate his base.  Donald Trump may be crass, and nowhere near as wealthy as he wants us to believe, but one way or another he's spent his life living an extraordinarily privileged lifestyle.  His whole schtick has always been that he's a rich New York elite whose station in life is many levels above that of the working class.  His contempt for the fawning toads at his rallies must be off the charts.

    Not sure I have a problem with giving Jews some form of protected status,

    Well, I would assume Jews already constitute a protected class ("race", religion).  The race/religion/nation nexus has always been a bit confounding, but this EO seems like it won't accomplish much good.  It's important to seek Trump's real motivation, which I imagine is a means by which Muslims can be more easily persecuted.

  7. In all seriousness, and not to diminish the greater good of guaranteeing personal liberty and properly constraining law enforcement, I'm not sure right now is at all a good time to be addressing 4A concerns.  With this Senate, this DOJ, and unfortunately these courts, things would most likely get worse, not better.

    Some of You guys pushed back all along the way when I pointed out the potential for these abuses. That you push back now that they have been confirmed is not particularly surprising. 

    I've been completely open to the idea of improving the law as it stands.  I am not at all interested in distracting from more dire concerns that currently face us.  Forest, trees, said it a million times, yada yada yada.

    Crickets after almost a day. She’s probably checked her post fifty times. So I decided to pry.

     

    Might want to work on your MS Paint skills there, Mac.

    Lotta people said that about Trump when he announced his candidacy.

    Insanity is reality these days -- best try to understand it.

    I've said as much many times, when it's clear that the person is arguing in good faith.  BNB is not.  He refuses to actually defend any points brought against him.  He's a troll.  Fuck him -- they muddy the waters.
