Engorgeous George

I liked him in his first Fast and Furious movie. He was decent playing Riddick. Stupid Senator.

Are you implying some sort of gay trist with this fella playing the doe to Hunter's buck?

As long as you are asking you should ask he be equiped with a plasma rifle of at least the 40 watt range otherwise your terminator may be stopped before completion of its mission.

Maybe they can recut the movie and give snow white and the queen a lesbian scene.

Around that same time as that marketing campaign was launched Wisconsin launched its Escape to Wisconsin campaign. Some folks cut up the bumper stickers like a ransom note, rearranged the letters and came up with Wisconsin, cos cows is nice! Quite the bumper sticker that was.

Is there a mens rea aspect to the statute? Does it have to be done intentionally, knowingly, or reckless, or perhaps even neglegently, or is it a strict liability offense? If the information was not classified, as has been stated, would it be enough that he intended to release classified informaiton. Maybe he would not be guilty of the crime, but of the inchoate offense of attempting to commit the crime even though it was impossible in fact.

I did two years in Marshall Minnesota as a law clerk. Fitting in socially was a challenge.

Clampoons...similar to harpoons but used on giant clams. Either that or good scotch, we keep doing shots until one of us perishes, or at least passes out and pisses themselves.

Not entirely. What Rachel Maddow did was translate Kamala Harris' forward from word salad gibberish into english, a valuable service.

I missed it. Perhaps it conflicted with a tour date for The Band, the Dead, or for Led Zepplin. Looks like I missed a raucous good time.

There will be widesspread condemnation of my new book entitled Orange is the New Flesh Tone.

I have not seen moves like that since Jed Clampett stomped one out when Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs came to visit.

How do you feel about western? Do you recognize Blue Grass as its own genre?

Maybe he was experiencing some gastric distress. Sometimes things can get quite urgent. Maybe there was a hot woman in the audience he wanted to engage with before she left.

It would be less annoying if his quotes were at least apropos of the subject matter of the thread, but they rarely, if ever, are.

Robert Hunter penned a song titled Cruel White Water. In it there is a line that states he heard "some talk of deviation, but from what was never mentioned, so he set out to find the wrong way home." That line resonated with my attitudes as a teenager and it seems it may have for you as well.

Careful. As demonstrated by your bit of history it is the challenged person who gets to pick weapons. Therefore be selective in who you challenge.

Have to be. Digging in that caliche is hard work. Juust get then down a foot or so and pile some rocks on to try to keep the javelinas out. Or appreciate that buzzards have to eat too.

I'm trying to picture this happening 50 years ago when I was in high school. I am guessing the brothers and boyfirends of the female athletes would have seen to it that the usurper would not have made it to the meet in any shape to compete. Now noting how times have changed does not mean I am advocating violence as a solution or a response now, I am simply noting how times have changed.

Not over, just evolving to a more "hands on" stage. Her next role will be off broadway in a more intimate boutique setting, with oils.

As I recall the matter the State of Texas, in defiance of the Feds, finally locked down their border stemming the flow. Then the Biden Administration, seeing the election slipping as California and some southwest swing states started getting the brunt from Texas and then, reluctantly, they tried to shut the border down doing what they had earlier stated was impossible, issuing an executive order which could have been issued at any time putting the lie to Biden's rhetoric. Then with the election won the south of the border flow dried up as they stopped coming knowing the open invitation Biden had extended for 3 + years was then gone. All we had to do to stem the tide was to stop inviting them. To stop the tide needed a lack of an invite and more vigilance on the border. Oh, and if you don't like the States I cited in my earlier example try sneaking into Isreal and see how that works out for you.Try sneaking into Australia or New Zealand or Iceland and get back to us. No country has an impenetrable border. That is not the reasonable argument or the reasonable goal and would only be argued by folks deliberately trying to miss the point. We can, though, have a relatively secure border backed up by cooperative local state and federal policing which keeps illegal immigration to a minimum. We can then get on with a more reasonable and beneficial legal immigration process which is thoughtful and controlled. Basically what you don't get is that most who want to stem illegal immigration are not racists or against immigrants, they are against lawbreaking and allowing the uneducated from the worlds most vicious ghettos to set our policy. We are against overwhelming the resources of local governments and the people who have a reasoanble expectancy of getting those resources having paid taxes and been citizens. We are against the chaos of the needs and expectancies of folks who like you have unreasonable expectancies based on a hundred and fifty year old aspirational poem which never really represented the sentiments of most Americans, just those like you who are utopians, which is to say idiots.

As I said, we worried about the risks. My wife wanted to proceed. She would even have proceeded if we found out it would have Down's. That possibility scared me, but not her. Sometimes I try to imagine what it would have been like to have a Down's kid. They all seem sweet when they are young. but I wonder, now at 66 could I deal with a 23 year old me with minimal intelligence and occassional flashes of frustrated anger. A 6'3' 250 pound mentally 4 to 8 year old would be quite the challenge.

I make nothing but daughters. 4 for 4 on that count. Happy to help if needed.

My wifes best friend for a few years after our youngest was born was a superhot 25 year old who was around a lot. She had a twin sister who was a fitness model.

Walls and fences did a fairly good job of holding desperate people in communist countires in the 50's, 60's, and 70"s. Walls and fences and active enforcement did a pretty good job of defending European borders for decades. None were perfect of course, but they were effective and we too can be effective if we choose to be. Also, we are not the only potential country for relocation. During the last decade or so and particularly during the Biden administration we were the easiest, but we can change that and folks may seek thier new homes elsewhere. If you think borders cannot be controled I welcome you to enter China or North Korea, or Iran illegally and see how you do. I do think we can absorb maybe 1% of our population in immigration each year. That is more than we currently allow in yearly legal immigration. I think entrants must be vetted. I think they must be healthy and immunized. i would prefer taht they are representative of the worl's demographics rather than all from one culture or region as they will likely integrate rather than concentrate in ethnic ghettos. I think they should be required to locate more or less evenly across the country for the first three to five years so no State and no locol government or school system is overwhelmed. We ought to get on this. By the way, in addition to welcoming the wretched refuse like my people and Tim's we ought to welcome the high achievers and wealthy looking to build something.
