    Trump’s New Company, net-worth balloons to $6.4B

    I'm not finance guy, but isn't it likely he has his money working for him rather than laying around in liquid cash. It would take me up to a year to free up substqantial assets to make them liquid cash unless i were to take substantial penalties. Some of my money it would take up to three years to access without penalty. My real estte, well i would need to find a buyer, maybe that hapens right away, maybe not for months. I just don't think Trump not seeming to have half a billion dollars in cash tells us much. Now on the other hand trump is all about bluster and gilding the lily. It has always been important to him to seem like a rich big shot and I suspect he hs exaggerated his wealth for decades.

    American Flag

    I fly an American flag on Memorial day, Independance day, V.E. and V.J day, Veteran's day, flag day, and election days. Otherwise I keep it furled and stored away. As I have no illumination for it I take it down at sunset on the days I do display it.
  5. I gave up smoking, caffeine, and salt. I gave up listening to news on t.v. and radio as I do not need the aggravation. In the warm months I paddle for a few hours on even days and bike for a few hours on odd days. During those times I get into a rhythm which clears my mind and occassionally I see some amazing wildlife. I do a bit of light weight training. I am replacing my aikido practice with ballroom dancing lessons once a week. I try to walk a mile each evening. I eat nothing processed. I think I am going to get a dog to accompany me on my walks and padddles. Dogs calm me.
  6. You should start a commercial health spa. I know I would be interested in a program like you have outlined.

    Who here still supports the Salem witch trials?

    I do like pressing by stones as a punishment, but on the other hand I do like witchy chicks. I support it but only as to unsightly women.

    I thought the thread would be about Mathew boling, the Texas kid known as White Lightening.

    Who here still supports the Pearl Harbor attack?

    General Billy Mitchell predicted the attack two decades before it occured.

    Hamstringing the Government

    He posted something. The value of the information for him having formed his oppinion or trying to sell that opinion to others is something that can be questioned. As for me I was not looking to learn something on the number of deaths, but rather to learn something about the poster himself, and for that the link was instructive.

    Do you have a citation for this assertion? If so i would be interedsted in reading the source material. Nevermind. I see you did post a link.

    Hamstringing the Government

    That was disturbing what with the references to monkeys and rodents both, with comments on her physical features, and with his desire to have her disrobe which I understand he could mean resign her position, but I believe it was his subconcious expressing a desire. Here's the thing, we don't really know whether Justice Jackson holds the beliefs being ascribed to her right now. In questioning during oral argument Justices often use the socratic method and play devil's advocate for a moment to get the party to offer refutations to positions the Justices hope to elicit so they can expand on those refutations in their rulings. Like many of you I suspect the Justice asked the question because that was her belief, but I don't know her well enough yet to absolutely conclude that, and even if I did I would hope my opposition would be expressed without the racist rancor.
  17. I was courteous in how I addressed it. I was however firm in my resolve. My wife and daughter tell me I can be a bit menacing at times. I tell them I know and when I seem menacing it is by design. Now, in my dotage, were I to try to seem menacing it would likely just seem comical.
  18. I have zero issue with this if they do as college kids are generally adults, or the intellectual equivilent of adults for those precocious youngsters who are admitted early, and because the policy is known and accepted by the act of accepting admission to that college or university. Folks are prepared for the eventuality.
  19. When my youngest was maybe 6 or 7 she went into a Target restroom alone. A critter attempted to enter maybe two minutes later. I blocked its path. I explained my daughter was in there and would be done in a minute or two and until then noone was going to enter. I pointed out the adjacent Family restroom and the Mens room. The critter said it was within its rights. I told it that asserting its rights at that time may not be in its best interest. It said it was going to get a manager and I would be in trouble with the cops. My daughter and I left the store in orderly fashion being done shopping. No manager ever approached and no cops ever confronted me on the matter.

    What kind of school, could it be a public schoool, pid for by tax dollars, one where the community is frequently invited to events on the campus if not in the classrooms, you know, like sporting events, school plays and musicals, and the like?

    Kathie Lee Gifford

    Well I do have other vices. I am a bit worried about tomorrow. A two hour drive to a place to watch the tournament where everyone else will be smoking and where there will be booze and blow. Rode trips are big triggers for me and obviously booze, blow, and smoke while watching sports is another.

    ALBUM LINKS HAVE BEEN SENT TO REVIEWERS!

    I am going to guess this would not be my cup of tea.

    Planet Fitness.

    I'm retired. Nothing much better to do. I get a bit of exercise and outdoor time in during the week, like yesterday where I lifted and then went out for a paddle on the reservoir, and on the weekends I head up into the hills for some whitewater rafting or kayaking and some fishing. The reservoir had ice out in February this year which I have never seen. Damn though the water is still cold. Off now to get the lifts in. I will break for an hour to eat before biking. I am a diabetic and I need to refuel between activities.
