  1. Her secret service code name was “Sugar Foot”. I’m guessing that “foot” was secret service code name for something else.
  2. I read this as your uncle banged Tricia Nixon.
  3. Why would that make a difference if Trump wants it to happen? A lot of people are saying that the last pope election was rigged. Bigly. A lot of Cardinals say that they voted for Trump.
  4. What about Pope? As long as he is angling for jobs that are already filled.
  5. Look how raw her ‘backhand your boyfriend’ left hand is. Only took me in 90 days to see the hand.
  6. Do NOT dis Vic like that! He worked day after day after day on that stigma. All a man could do, really. We did not “place” it. We watched in wide wonder as he carefully built and nurtured that. The man went through bags of flour like he was a baker.
  7. “A lot of people are saying, a lot of really smart people, the best people who know about things are saying that my orange mushroom will fit tightly in a flag grommet. They say.”
  8. Listening to the oral argument in Trump’s gag order appeal to the circuit court on MSNBC on the way into work. Their orange client will like their argument just as much as the court will hate it. Using a technical legal term, Trump and his counsel are getting Uber Fucked. From the questioning, it seems highly unlikely that he’s going to win his appeal and get the gag order overturned. You have a panel of two Obama appointees and one Biden appointee. So when Trump loses, even though it was because Doddard’s counsel have a really stupid argument and a horrible client who says threatening things and sics his army of regarded cult members on people he dislikes on the reg, they will trumpet that the mean Democratic judges are going after Trump.
  9. it won’t do a damn thing, but I hope people are turning that asshole into the ODC OF whatever states he’s member of the Bar.
  10. The Comanche had been in Texas, 80 or 90 years before Plum Creek, but your point stands. The fuckers lived in Colorado and New Mexico, and came south in the 1700s. Why was the territory of Comancheria so large? Because those deadly fuckers killed anyone who disagreed with them. With the passage of 100 years it was now their ancestral homeland. Then Rangers like Hayes and soldiers like Col. Ranald McKenzie said it wasn’t.
  11. Rickover was a lot of things, but a fool was not one of them. If Carter was personally interviewed and then selected to be a part of the nacient nuclear Navy, Jimmy had it going on.
  12. It’s always fascinating when you have an intersection of religion and geography. As a practical matter, anyone’s Promised Land did not come about from God making it happen, but from your side killing all the people who were there before you - and/or killing enough until you drove the rest of them out. The Old Testament is pretty clear that the children of Israel committed genocide on the people who were there to get their Promised Land.(God’s command that every living person in Canaan be put to death). It’s also clear since the crusades that people who are not Jews have been declaring it their land, and killing the people who were living there at any given time, no matter what their religion. So how much validity to we give a claim that this is my sacred God given land? I’m often reminded of the Lakota Sioux and the Sacred Black Hills that the white man stole. In a lot of ways that claim is a whole lot of bullshit. The land used to belong to the Cheyenne, before the Lakota were driven out of the great lakes area and pushed west. The Cheyenne also fucked up by introducing horses to the Lakota, who eventually became so numerous that they drove the Cheyenne out of the Black Hills. IOW, the sacred Black Hills of the Sioux we’re only the sacred Black Hills from about 1775 on. That said, once you claim some places your sacred land, then it is hell to pay if somebody else comes along and drove you outta there the same way you drove out the previous inhabitants. I have no idea where the hell I’m going with this, but I just had a thought bubble about the factor of the land belonging to someone because their religion said it does. When the smoke clears, you have the military juice to keep it or you don’t. Whether you attribute your successful military operations that took it in the first place to God or not, well, that is another matter for another day’s discussion.
  13. it is entirely possible that this information is true, but equally as possible that Russia lies about the number it has in service or the number it has in storage. Or, more likely, that the number it has in storage is correct - but very few of them work because parts have been stolen and sold, while the vehicles engines and tires have not been kept up and so they can’t get the damn thing to the front. Still, this slightly modern version of Katuska is pretty damn deadly when all 40 missiles filled with cluster warheads land in a defined area.
  14. 66 outside, 70 inside. AC has not gone on in a week. Even if chilly, on a sunny day my house heats up pretty well given the no-tree shade aspect. I keep the heat set on 65 - but if it’s sunny it will never kick on unless the temperature stays in the low 50s or below. i’m on the Entergy level billing plan, where every month they calculate the last 12 months usage and divide by 12 to give what you owe this month. I love me some low energy use months to keep that damn average thing down.
  15. Natalia will protect her daughters and grandbabies, until there are no more live rapey murdery Russians left in her country.
  16. I’ve never seen one of these rare San Francisco garter snakes. So damn beautiful.
  17. Dad never told me I had another brother.
  18. unless you were a gator fan it was pretty damn entertaining
  19. fuck me. fourth and 17 conversion. no fucking pass rush all night. that said, given the people we had in the game, I would not have given anyone odds we’d be leading with 15 seconds left at their place
  20. That’s like God hiding the fake dinosaur bones. If it doesn’t come to pass, it is just challenging your Faith. Which means it’s true.
  21. When you see a Miami game, you could be assured of excellent Miami clock management and a very disciplined Miami team with few penalties. BWAHAHAHAAAAA!!!!
  22. And speaking of rapid unscheduled disassembly….
  23. Now, imagine for a moment that you are someone on George Santos’ congressional staff. Now imagine the moment, in light of the news about him, when they stopped and took time to contemplate their current situation and concluded, “Yeah, I need to stay here and work with this Congressman for the betterment of my political future.” Those people will be running as GOP candidates somewhere soon.
