  1. Negged. Also. It's Ukraine and NATO are fucked. If you are going to be a complete idiot, at least agree your subject and verb properly.
  2. @Rimbo, you really this dumb? Joe Biden doing what 99% of pols wouldn't do, step aside for the good of the country. This is what leadership is, and it takes courage.
  3. Both Jon Stewart and Dave Chappelle had a field day on the hole in the ear and the bandage last night. It was even funnier when they came onstage together and played off each other.
  4. If we devolve more and those are our choices, I don't want to live here anymore.
  5. Headed to the Apollo now. I will admit, I was worse for thr wear today. Too much beer on an empty stomach (though I did hit JG Melon once I got back to Manhattan last night at midnight) made me absolutely useless today. Worth it.

  7. I couldn't stand her, but RIP SJL.
  8. They abandoned Houston because Houston votes Dem. It's fucking easy.
  9. And you are still an idiot who acts like they are above the frey by pontificating with faux intellectualism and both sides bullshit. You are a white male, and you give zero fucks about the Americans that Trump and his ilk are bound and determined to make second class citizens because it does not impact you. I feel sorry for any of the women in your life.
  10. Friday night, Foo Fighters in Brooklyn and Saturday night, Jon Stewart and Dave Chappelle in Harlem (at the Apollo!). Nice.
  11. Italy has become my Spring trip for 2025. The only things I know is that I am going to do Emilia Romagna and Venice, and that we are going to Imola on May 16-18. That is all I have.
  12. First bold, obviously. If you are really pro-choice, then you should repudiate the entire fucking Republican party, because they are bound and determined to make women no better than property. Fuck that. Second bold, Dude, it is the fucking internet. If your fees fees get hurt from a neg on a goddamned message board, maybe you need to step the fuck away.
  13. I have also decided to blow up all my plans for this year. The only travel I will be doing is for work (probably two more trips across the pond), and I am going to stay in the UK for one of them (maybe go back to Oxford, hit up Cambridge or go futher in to the British Countryside to get some R&R, but the other, I might just do a weekend in Germany (one of my German colleagues has been after me to come to Hamburg...I do not think that is a bad idea, but I have to do the business case right). So, now, doing two larger trips in 2025 and 2026. For 2025, Spring will be Venice/Imola (for the race)/Emilia Romagna. Fall (Late October/Early November) will be Marrakech. I still might have some time to play with, and if things go according to plan at work, will be traveling some to South America. If so, might add on Buenos Aires, which is a place I have always wanted to go. For 2026, am thinking a combo of Japan and Paris, each for 2 weeks. Yes, I know I have been to Paris a lot, but now that I can just wander, it is an even better city.
  14. Tuesday, we flew home. I had flown First Class on BA for this trip as they gave me the option to upgrade from business for about 600 each way. I was in seat 1A. Fun fact, Kate Hudson was in seat 1K. The last time I had flown first on BA from London to NYC was back in April. I was in seat 2K. Lewis Hamilton was in seat 1K. So, some interesting people in the first class cabin from London to NYC.
  15. Monday, rain persisted. We tooled around Oxford. We jumped on a hop on/hop off bus. Then we went to Blackwells to see the books. We popped into the King's Arms, visited Christchurch (a lot of the colleges were closed thanks to summary programs), and ended up doing a Thames cruise. The cruise started and ended the The Folly, so what was where we had dinner.
  16. And Sunday was race day. It was a sloppy, soggy mess, but it was fun. It was nice to see Hamilton get the W. 20240707_130941.mp4 20240707_150642.mp4 20240707_161533.mp4 20240707_162115.mp4
  17. Yes, really. Going in between 7:30 to 8:30 in the morning and leaving at 5. Some days, it took more than 10 minutes just to exit the fucking garage.
