  1. Well That is your opinion
  2. IMO - many people that I know who say Trump is a good/great president, are saying it as a comparative statement. In their minds and words, he is better than Obama, than Hilary would have been, and than Sleepy Joe. Let's face it, this past election was the worst choices - for varying, and different reasons - that I can remember. But then again I have only been following these things since the 1976 election. And I did some work for the Udall campaign (and you know why....there were more and better looking girls in his office).
  3. https://surlyx.com/JBPritzker/status/1887949566525186554 nope (14) JB Pritzker on X: "An important announcement from the Governor of Illinois. https://t.co/irh7UtwEOe" / X still nope (14) JB Pritzker on X: "An important announcement from the Governor of Illinois. https://t.co/irh7UtwEOe" / X welp - so much for that
  4. whole lotta bullshit (bearshit) posted on this thread since 10/31 (which is when mooseoutfront last posted here) btw - get your envelopes stamped and sealed and sent in; the ice contest started taking entries on Feb 1 Tickets | Nenana Ice Classic
  5. yeah well that all sounds good - except it is replacing corruption and deception with new and improved deception and corruption MAGA would be losing their minds (again) if Dems put recent grads as moles/operatives into Gov't agencies, treated our largest trade partners as fodder for the Supreme leaders ego, and put Dem oligarchs into high level positions. But you just go ahead and convince yourself that this is just normal, and these people won't harm the rank & file citizens.
  6. I have 6 of those lovable little critters - 9,8,7,7,5,2. And nothing pleases me more than when they get together and play with each other. I just sit back and smile. "Grandchildren are God's gift to you, for not killing your children"
  7. Sure they can cut a ton of people, they have already given notice to US AID; and yes there are programs that are crap, but US AID also is the US exerting it presence into developing countries. And when we stop providing assistance, then the China, India, Russia would but can't, will step in and gain or expand their foothold/influence around the globe. Also, note that US AID is also an agency that provides cover to US operatives (CIA, FBI, etc) - allegedly. So if President TrumpMusk can pull the plug on that without even looking at any consequences; then they will damn near certainly layoff large groups that they don't understand what it is that they do. Musk was on the edge of bankruptcy several times at Tesla, and pulled a rabbit out of his hat; IMO he is way out of his league trying to fix the problems in US gov't organizations. Trump gave him this task as a reward for donating over $250 million to the campaign.
  8. Scotties scorecard looking very Jordan'esque
  9. I haven't read all the posts but we've ended up here because of many steps along this path, including: - courts recognizing corporation rights to make political contributions. And thereby funding super PACs. Money is more important than voters. - the supremes allowing almost unchallengeable presidential immunity. - congress rule changes, like super majority, that push more power to the fringe/extreme of each party and stopping historical central bias making it a polarized body. Leaving behind bipartisanship, coalitions, and compromise. - picking political candidates that are best at bullying and bad mouthing opponents (even within their own party). - congress realizing that their main job is being reelected, maybe because it is much easier to front run investment decisions based on insider information. I could go on, but already risk tl:dr status
  10. sit right down and I will tell you my tale of woe it is 1987 and I started a new job, the CFO gives me a copy of a Berkshire annual report and says read it because it is the best financial report he has ever seen. He was right, plain language, no bullshit, no technical talk, just tells what they do. But I'm young and broke and BRK was about $3,500/share, paid no dividends, and no buybacks (nobody did that back then). That company was sold a few years later and I did have a little money, but by then BRK was almost $7,000/share; seemed to expensive for me. So for the lack of buying it then I have several million $$$'s less now. Einstein was right; compound interest (or returns in this case) are the eight wonder of the world
  11. maybe they opened the wrong valve; I'm almost certain they will get it right with the 2nd try, or the 3rd.
  12. So, let me see if I understand this, the long play to get rid of birthright citizenship is because of that remains the law then anyone born in Gaza after is becomes part of the US would then be citizens. His moves are 5-D chess (or maybe wild card only uno)
  13. Tiger announced that his Mom passed.
  14. I was going to post that I could support a US SWF, but only if it was managed by Nancy Pelosi. But I won't post that, because it is too CR for this thread.
  15. I stole this from a LinkedIn, and figured this was as good a place as any to drop it. This is the backside of the jokingly proposed addition to Mount Rushmore
  16. Spent almost all of January in Houston, Mrs Fairway had 2nd and 3rd surgery; finally came back with clean margins and clean PET scan. So 7 more months of prophlaxic immunotherapy, and continued PET scans quarterly that will eventually become annual. I think this time it is really gone, though I think the standard is several years before they will say in remission or gone. But Fucking A that was quite a ride, and again thanks for all for the support, prayers and laughs along the way.
  17. while you are correct in what you say - the shit I was referencing is all the shit he is hawking; you know bibles, tennis shoes, fragrances, watches, etc
  18. Just wanted to let you know, after hearing updates commercials - you can now pay for this shit with $Trump meme coins
  19. Not like change lakes Erie, Huron and Superior; and personally I'm hoping they don't cut the grid. But as that great American once said "Stupid is as Stupid does" Then again, it's only about an hours move for me, that is if Canada doesn't sit their border
  20. Now I'm depressed. It really brings me down. Don't bring me down No, no, no, no, no Ooh-ooh-hoo I'll tell you once more before I get off the floor Don't bring me down
  21. I would neg myself, if I could
  22. I'm going out on a limb, cause of the plane crash is DEI, Biden, southern border, and China
  23. Ams only play in round 1 & 2, weekend could play faster (except Cantley is in the field)
  24. Jordan talks about conditions at Pebble https://www.thegolfinggazette.com/news/jordan-spieth-has-noticed-a-big-difference-at-pebble-beach-this-year-which-is-not-like-hes-ever-seen-it-before/
