Don’t worry. We’ll send in the military to get the infrastructure in place to take all of their oil and other natural resources and do it under the banner of protecting Americans from the tyranny of whatever TFG decides he wants to use to distract from the fact that he’s a pedophile.
He’s 80, he’s done loads of hard drugs in his life and he’s a narcissist. He’s also a closet alcoholic, but that should also be obvious to anyone who has read his tweets. FIFA could have given him a big gold star to put on his clothing that looks like the Star of David and told him he’s the King of all peace deals and he would’ve accepted it. All of you that raised children had smarter kids once they could ride a bike than TFG. I am going to eagerly write about this time in world history down the line and write worse about TFG than Samuel Eliot Morison did about Admiral Halsey. Not only is there no bottom with him, the hole is infinite and it has sucked in millions of feckless morons across America who can’t count to potato, but are self-assured experts on pandemics, autism and geopolitics. I can guarantee that I could absolutely run across one of these older idiot cult members in the wild, use the term geopolitics and be asked what a Geo Metro has to do with anything.
I don’t believe that it is sustainable to be bad for three quarters each week. I think his coach is a good one, but I also know his backside is redder than the reddest aggy. Those two things don’t mix well in a coach-QB relationship.
I watched none of this game and maybe three minutes of the NFL this year on accident. Can someone explain how Williams can consistently be so mediocre for most of the game and then morph into vintage Tom Brady for about 15 minutes? Also how much are the Bears going to pay for this kind of QB? 60 million a season since one quarter is better than the zero quarters they normally get from the position?
Not certain that anyone said Tech’s offense was anything other than average. Their defense was legit all year. Hard to win playoff games though when your offense puts up a goose egg and your head coach is a JAG. I am not sold on Sorsby being the answer to their offensive issues, but at least they recognize that QB play hurt them more than it helped. I would’ve targeted Leavitt and made him refuse an offer that no other school would match. Tech will be really good again next year, but all it takes is one injury to derail the whole season.
He seems like the kind of coach that will either find one himself or get his staff to actively find someone to underwrite the program by “stroking a check” every year. His honesty on the money situation was refreshing and funny at the same time.
The biggest reason to be out in the Pacific is that I wanted to take a journey through the countries that the Pacific War was fought in. It was also to be able to listen to stories of those who were alive when the history of the war unfolded. Most of the soldiers are no longer with us, but there are people who were children that experienced the war at their doorstep. I had no real idea how I would meet any of these folks or when, but a co-worker who is Filipino heard what I am doing and asked if I wanted to sit down and interview her mother. I said for sure I would. She took me over to Aiea where she stays up in the hills with her younger sister and their family. Her name is Maria and she’s 91 years old. She had turned seven in October of 1941. It wouldn’t be long after that Japan would invade the Philippines and show up in Leyte. I asked her what her and her family did. She said they abandoned their home and headed into the mountainous jungle to live. She could recall that time like it had just happened yesterday. She said for three years they subsisted on rice, fruits like bananas and vegetables like tomato’s to survive. She said they rarely made fires so the Japanese patrolling in their area would not find them. They had no pets due to the noise they would make. She said the jungle was their protection and that the Filipinos who stayed in the cities and towns suffered greatly under Japanese rule. Her daughter helped with translating and I mostly just listened to her and recorded our conversation that was about two hours or so. I asked her what was her first encounter with a Japanese soldier. She said it was after the US came back to Leyte. She recalled a Japanese soldier that snuck up on them looking for food. She said she ran away barefoot as fast as she could. She was laughing while recounting this. All the soldier wanted was food as the jungle was now his home too and when they came back later she said he had taken most of what they had cooked. I asked her what was her memories of the United States soldiers that came back and she said that the memory of going with her cousin to the American barracks where her cousin asked for food and kerosene. She said the Americans always gave them anything they had. She remembers getting corned beef tins often from them. I asked if she thought theUS would be back after Japan had seized everything there. She said she never doubted it even though she was just a child. She also could recall seeing an aerial battle where a plane was shot down over the jungle, but she did not know if it was a Japanese or American plane. She recalled that sight vividly though. The last thing I asked was what was it that has carried her through 91 years of life when the beginning of it was so rough. She said being happy and just thankful for life. Her daughter tha I work with is 59 and she said she has never once in her life seen her mother angry. She stays active with other groups of Filipinos here, she listed all th dances she can still do and she has made her own clothes her entire life. I saw some pictures of what she has made and Christ this woman should’ve been a fashion designer had she been born in another place. Her daughter had told me she had a sixth grade education and I asked about that. This was maybe cool because it helped her daughter learn something new about mom. She had a sixth grade education because beyond that the school closest would have required her crossing a river and then walking to school. It would’ve been two and a half hours one way. That meant the end of formal schooling. She would move to Manila and in 1954 at age 20 she would get married. I saw her picture with her husband. It was pretty cool. Same smile 72 years later and the same outlook on life of being kind to others and never getting upset over small things. The last thing I’d like to share is that due to her surviving in a mountainous jungle her family blossomed and her grandkids all took advantage of the American education she never could’ve imagined. One is a scientist working in Texas. Another is finishing up at UH Manoa. One that is in his 30’s got his law degree from Harvard and now is getting a PhD from Cal Berkeley. There are others, but I didn’t want to ask too much. I got to see her backyard where she still has a pet turtle, rooster, chicken, dog and cat. She has a virtual forest back there of fruits and vegetables and a mango tree. It was awesome. She used to have a pet pig back in the Philippines before the war and another after. Her daughter said the pig would follow her around like a dog. Anyhow this family exists because of one woman surviving a war living in crudely made bamboo huts with giants leaves to protect from the rain for three years. Next week I am going to attempt to meet her best friend that is 95 who had a different war experience win the Philippines that was not as pleasant. I just wanted to share this because you never know where life will take you or who you will meet.
Democrats do not have the stomach for this fight. It’ll just take the average American doing the heavy lifting on anything for these fascists to get kicked out and face some justice. We are a nation of “Good Germans” and almost no one wants to lose their gravy train by being bold and fighting back.
Stephen A. apparently has sided with the nazi ice agent. I would personally love to see Smith get hit by a NYC bus. MediaiteStephen A. Smith Insists ICE Agent Was ‘Completely Justif...Stephen A.
