As for the rest... I did not expect any better of you. Yes, the word fertile is in the Bible. But the concept of a fertile Crescent running from Basra to, depending on your source, down the Nile is not.


Were you and YankGuy separated at birth in the Fertile Land of Esoteria?

LOL!
If you need directions from Moronvia let us know.


LOL!
Thanks for playing.

Dammit! I thought I was going to get one of your patented "Say 'goodnight' Gracie" as your snappish response.  I just lost $20.00 in the pool.

Indeed.  Maybe Hairy can catch the bonus questions.  At least one, if he doesn't fiddle around.

Murdered by malpractice by his psychiatrist.
I told my Psychiatrist I had suicidal thoughts.
Since then he makes me pay in advance.

That seems totally in character with everyone who follows Steve Bannon and Steve Miller into every open sewer.

Whoever loves correction loves knowledge, but whoever hates reproof is stupid. And it is pretty obvious where you come down.

Another crackpot theory.  With a cool-sounding name.  The Right wants so badly not to have to own their actions on January 6.  Ghost bus to the rescue!

Amanda breaks down the Trump technique of using sexism and misogyny to con people.   And how Ivanka helps.

Bamboozling lenders?
Excuse me, the lenders should've done their homework properly.
Lenders are supposed to have expert valuers, expert accountants...margin rules, security rules, qualification rules.
Not supposed to just believe what loan applicants say...no matter their manner...ranters, ravers, BS artists, sweet, calm, demure..."good cop, bad cop" routines, braggers, and the "don't you know who I am" brigade.
Wise lenders never get themselves into trouble.
Investors...ditto.
