You don't KNOW anything.

Yeah.

I do.

You were read by a pro you miserable SOB.

Poor Larry the Black Supremacist. He's so consumed by his hatred.

Sad how he just lashes out.

Symptom of deep depression. Understandable given his, uh...lifestyle.

Let's hope he gets the help he needs

Ham,  ok, there's your punishment....now what is the lesson?

"Let's hope he gets the help he needs"?   But you said YOU were here to fulfill the needs
of others. 

So, before I go on my sabbatical, please tell your lesson for LB and others here!

I want to hear more about Hamilton Samuels kicking ass at a pool hall!!!

He thought of himself as Slick Sammy in the rough and tumble pool halls of the mean streets of Dover, Delaware. But the regulars laughed at him and called him the Dupont Dipstick, but as the town was filled with Dupont dipsticks they settled on calling him Newark Nancy.  They pimped his game and took his twenties rack after rack after rack. He learned to take a beating and it was the one thing he became good at. And that remains true to this day.

He needs an ass kicking to get aroused, and he got his ass kicked but good back then, paying the boys, night after night. 8-ball, 9-ball, or straight. If he pocketed a solid on the break, betting stripes was the play. Slick got his ass kicked again and again and again. But one night the real Newark Nancy showed up, as she heard that some Dover dumb-ass was riding her rep. And Nancy had more balls and could pocket more balls than poor Slick Sammy ever dreamed of.

And she did, rack after rack she sank 8s, 9s, and ran the table and she broke Slick Sammy.

And ran him out of town.

In shame and disgrace, he changed his name and left Delaware a broken and deeply disturbed dumb-ass punk.

And to this day its a pattern he repeats, starts a fight, gets his ass kicked, runs away, and changes his handle, and slinks back hoping for one more chance to sink the 8-ball.

But Slick only scratches.

He's filthy, is shit encrusted and has fleas.

So he scratches.


Hope that helps yank.

Republicans yield to their most destructive and self destructive tendencies.

Yep. 

Beloved is his signifier to the Trump base that he is a safe member of the cult, no longer an untrustworthy corporate type.

Interesting that the whole ordinary mom shtick of Ms Murphy and her nightmared son was kind of a sham.  Whole family are apparatchiks, son worked in the WH as a Trump aide.  Ya cant make this stuff up. 

I predict sales of Beloved will soar because TNSTABP!

Thanks for the full story, Banks. I had figured Ham had heard someone raise their voice near a pool hall and then dived into the nearest garbage can where he hid for two days until he thought it was safe to come out.

The authors of DOW 36,000, who predicted it would get there within 3-5 years of 1999, went on to success:

Glassman went on to serve as undersecretary of state for public affairs and public diplomacy in the George W. Bush administration and as the founding executive director of the George W. Bush Institute. Hassett, a former Federal Reserve economist, served as chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers during the Trump administration.

When I was a kid I washed Victoria Principal's dog, when I was working at Pet World with my Grandmother who was a dog groomer, it was back when Victoria was on the television show Dallas. That was part of the fun of working with my Grandmother was meeting the stars. And of course at the Canine Country Club we had a lot of stars for customers. 

Washing dogs was hard work, it is harder than you think, especially when you are doing chows, and sheep dogs, and samoyeds, etc. My Grandmother was a hard worker, grooming dogs is hard work. And we were working 12 hours per day, from 8 in the morning until 8 at night. We were doing 20 dogs per day.

But, we were making honest money, and the dogs were great for the most part, and the customers were great for the most part, and we had some stars for customers, it was cool. And I helped my Grandmother to buy groceries and to pay the rent, and as long as we worked then we were able to eat.

Uh, oh.

Sounds like Joe Manchin is not finished whittling down the Biden spending blowout.



WASHINGTON Sen. Joe Manchin (D., W.Va.) issued criticism of Democrats $1.85 trillion social and climate spending effort, withholding his support for a legislative framework that the White House had cast as a consensus acceptable to all 50 members of the Senate Democratic caucus.

I am open to supporting a final bill that helps move our country forward. But I am equally open to voting against a bill that hurts our country, he said at an afternoon press conference.

Not yet, Ham.  I have Conte sticks and like the trios crayon technique that Watteau used.
Just need the right toned paper and need to get those sticks sharpened to a fine point.

Will have some new works to show you upon my return.  Will draw a portrait for you of someone
you respect.  Let me know, thanks.

I believe Kurt Vonnegut drew a likeness of Ham in Breakfast of Champions. Looked like * with extra arms, as i recall.

Alternatively,  draw linen with eye holes.

We need to help the homeless, we need Wellness Centers where people can get help, and there needs to be crisis intervention specialists in the poor areas to help the poor people as an alternative to police officers. The poor people can have crisis intervention specialists like the rich people have. Instead of sending in a cop with a gun to bust people, we need to send a crisis intervention specialist to help the people. We need teams to help the homeless. We also need to build new towers like the towers being built on Skid Row in Los Angeles to help the homeless, and they can have doormen and security and cameras just like the rich people have.

And we need to have tariffs on imports, and we need to use the money to elevate the American people. And we need to build high speed trains, and subways, etc.

Salute,

Tony V.
