Kind of the way MLK,Jr gets remembered.

Feet of clay, feet of clay.

In the stock market they call it throwing out the baby with the bath water. No more statues of white people in public areas?

My No1 radio host, now only on tv, reckons having Biden in the White House is "elder abuse".

Such a stupid, predictable comparison, designed purely to raise the hackles of others. I wish you would return to posting without intending to provoke and irritate.

Another inane comparison.

Toppled?


“I feel that it should just be melted down,” Rose Ann Abrahamson, a Sacagawea descendant, said during the council meeting, The Daily Progress reported. “I feel that it’s entirely offensive and it should be obliterated.”

Lee was like a football team parlaying a last place schedule into a playoff berth, only to lose in the first round. It is hard to tell how good they really are.

In my world "elder abuse" is a thing, of which bambu-ilk intend to take full advantage.
Feel we are being discriminated against or taken advantage of in any way ...we'll be screaming "elder abuse"  very loudly.

Poor Joe, he seems to be made suffer thru things that are beyond him.

The Space race: One small step for Bran, one giant leap for Brankind


Congratulations to Richard Branson's vision, vanity and opening space to venture capitalists and get-away vacations to exotic locals.

Is Weyland-Utani just a round the corner?

Elder abuse is what you do to yourself when you think no one is looking. It’s why you have such thick patches of hair on your palms.

It can also be how republicans let Covid run rampant through nursing homes rather than address the problem till hundreds of thousands died, all so they could keep running the Cracker Jack campaigns that cost them the White House and the Senate.

Congrats to Richard Branson.

And it was all made possible by Burt Rutan, and the geniuses in Mojave, California.

I wish the best to the people of New Mexico.

Salute,

Why is the comparison unfair?

Explain.

 If you can give three reasons why your comparison is idiotic, you might give some of us here reason to believe you possess the cognitive basis to process an Explanation of why your comparison is unfair.
