As for the volcano, it sure made a slow entry. We've been expecting it for a couple of weeks.

Accusing political opponents of sexual assault 30 years ago without evidence seems to be the go-to move. Time for everybody to pretend it's legitimate.

Defense needs to show something, offense needs to hold onto the ball.

Needed a break like those dummies to crash into each other on 4th down. See if they can't get things together.

They don't look good lately and I don't trust Aaron Glenn's schemes. The team need CJGJ and James Houston back. Houston may be back in December. CJGJ hopefully by playoff time. Moseley is done for the season.

Wonderful having a Lions QB and team that doesn't kneel during the National Anthem on Thanksgiving.

Yes. Every time one of you fails to solve the puzzle, a part of me dies.

I hope so. No excuses with Green Bay so banged up. We embarrassed then in Green Bay on national TV earlier in the year. They learned something, made good adjustments at halftime, and won't just get rolled again. Chicago isn't a very good team, but Sunday reminds everyone that when you lose the turnover battle 4-1, you can find your ass down twelve points with five minutes left.

I know, I know. I just needed a quick and easy example of the top of my head to make a point of when a single letter could go any of six way. Removing the emergency brake that would prevent me from flying off the cliff would terrify me. I already treat a six as complete and utter failure. If my 100% ever went away, I would feel like I entered a void of despair. I try to maintain three threes for every five and three deuces for every six. That's challenge enough for me.

When the white liberals at Eastern Michigan changed the team name from Hurons to Eagles, over the objection of the Huron tribe, the Chippewa tribe saw the writing on the wall and went on the offensive to ensure that Central Michigan remained the Chippewas.

We do have a lot of Muslims; what we don't have is a lot of sh*t blowing up. Credit that to the FBI or the local Muslim community themselves or some combination of the two. The article mentions the FBI is involved and that prosecutors have brought a" slew" of cases against Hamas affiliated charities and individuals. That does not apply to Europe. Europe has it's own issues.

Maybe seeing half of them snuggle up with Hamas will smarten up the other half to recalibrate who the bad guys are, but who knows, they've already proven willing to blame cops and coddle criminals, embrace perverts and reject churches, reject what they see with their own eyes in favor of Biden regime talking points.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

A perfect example of why we want Californians to stay in California ... you can live like that, fine, but we don't want any of this to spread to where we live. The focking UCLA basketball team famously goes to another country to play a goodwill game and steals things because its second nature for teenagers from where they grew up to do so and the UCLA football recruits rip off stuff from the locker room of the Colorado players for the same reason.

You ought to know since you live there (or close enough). The prosecutor there doesn't put thieves in jail and so the robberies get more and more brazen. He is so famously soft on crime, that what's left of the sane voters in LA county tried to recall him.

And another "Thank You" to you too. You guys are on it.

Thank You for making the obvious point.

Huh... interesting. Were I to do that, I'd have to totally overhaul how I think about this. I've made my own challenge. Currently, I view four as neutral, fives as failures, and sixes as calamities. Not actually solving the puzzle has never happened. As a challenge, I like to maintain/achieve (such and such) ratio of 3s to 5s and 2s to 6s. It's why fives, and especially sixes, cause me so much pain and why I went to such great lengths to solve 'pixel' in 4 with only an i,e,and l to work with. Also, this sounds like a great way to parts, warts, darts, carts, tarts your way to complete failure. Whenever that happens to me, I try to get three of the letters.... like "wiped." to stop the hemorrhaging. Strapping myself in for a slide into oblivion would make my head explode.

Who farted?

I worry because they didn't look very carefully at the sizes nor try anything on first.

Not if he stole less than $950.

Wow. That's the total opposite of what I do,. I'm not terribly interested in turning yellow vowels into greens, I'd take that "e" and set it aside for later. I'm mostly hunting for consonants and the 'v' is almost never a priority. Today, I did try to turn yellow vowels green. After two, I had two vowels plus an extremely common consonant. I figured "there's probably only two vowels in here. I'll take a crack at a birdie, probably won't get it because there's a few dozen words it could be, but I can kick the tires on a couple more consonants and maybe something green will show up." I got none of that. No help, I had three common letters and knew two spots for each where they didn't go. then every word I thought up just didn't quite fit in. Oh, it was madness.

TDS suffers have lost their minds. Here's Thomas Edsall at the NY Times is not holding back on freaking out over Trump possibly doing to the Democrats what the Democrats are already 100% doing to Trump. This drips with insanity. Oh my God, what joy it would be to see sh*tbags like this heads explode if Turmp wins again: https://web.archive.org/web/20231122133418/https://www.nytimes.com/2023/11/22/opinion/trump-danger-rage-psychology.html/ Corrupt insider corporate shills need to get a grip. People already know what a Trump would be like because we just had one, it turned out very well, except for the COVID thing, and even that was handled much better in GOP states than Dem ones. We can compare Trump's presidency directly to what Joe Biden and his handler have been up to and figure out which one we like better. Even 18 year old first time voters weren't born yesterday.

I was just reading about Aaron Rodgers being ahead of schedule and wanting to come back in a few weeks and it got me to think about where to rank the Jets if that happens. Talk me off the ledge here... I'm thinking all the way up at six just behind the Chiefs and Lions where DeShawn's Browns were and would still be. That's a scary team and I wouldn't want anything to do with them... of course that O-Line is even more dinged up than week one and his ankle makes him more gimpy than that week was well... We (or at least I) spent the preseason wondering how good these Jets were going to be. Well, things didn't work that way but the ship can be righted.

Wordle 886 4/6 🟨 🟨🟨 🟨🟨🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 Brutal word that gave me fits. Went for it on three, learned pretty much nothing except more places where stuff doesn't go... which helped, I suppose, because everything I could think of frustratingly didn't quite fit. You know you're close but just not seeing it.
