You don't understand the reference between him and me, tard.

I'd probably target 4:30, with the intention of actually getting there by 4:45. I'm notoriously late, largely because there is always one more PITA thing I need to do with my laryngectomy, at least that is my excuse. But as others have pointed out, you don't want to show up as the bride is heading down the aisle.

I just tried to ignore him, but it doesn't work. I still see his posts. This is the first time I've ever put anyone on ignore. Even GF, occasionally during his rants, had a nugget worth reading, often for comedic value but still... Seafoam is just bombarding this place with irrelevant videos. Thankfully few if any people are engaging with him, but despite the lack of positive reinforcement, he's still going strong.

My wife saw Foo Fighters for free at the big Salesforce conference this past year, she said it was a fun show.

Bruce Springsteen is truly the boss. Saw him this past Tuesday. Friends of ours had 4 tix to his concert here this past November, but he came down with some ulcer problem in September and canceled the rest of the tour. This was apparently his first performance since coming back. Their kids were going to go originally but weren't available, so they asked us to go. I've never been a huge Bruce fan but, meh, what the heck, I hear he puts on a good concert, so let's go. Ho-leee fock! He played for just shy of 3 hours non-stop. By non-stop, I mean that when most songs ended, he yelled "1 2 3 4" before the end and launched into a new song. Twice the band went off stage, I presume for some union break rules, but Bruce stayed onstage and played by himself. Dood is 75 going on 35. He played a lot of older, more obscure stuff, but that was back when he was writing meaningful music, so it was great. I knew enough of the songs that, combined with the awesomeness of the seats (not that we sat much), it was phenomenal. In the past two months I've seen Billy Joel (with Stevie Nicks) and Tool. Joel and Tool are two of my favorite artists ever, and I thoroughly enjoyed the shows. But from a pure performance perspective, they couldn't hold a candle to Bruce. If you are a Bruce fan, particularly his older stuff, and you have the chance to see this performance, do yourself a favor and do it.

Appreciate it, thanks!

I'm not watching the entire episode. Post a clip you thought was worth discussing.

Great post, thanks for the link showing what you thought was great.

I'll take Gonzaga.

Who here still supports Jan 6 attack?
jerryskids replied to The Psychic Observer's topic in The Geek Club
Has it been proven that the isolated incident(s) are as you suggest? I recall discussing here how such items were not discussed by the 1/6 Committee, which made that committee not a search for truth, but rather a prosecution. Sure, people did bad things, and they should face consequences. Only a handful went there with anything resembling a plan, and it wasn't a very good one. The majority of people got caught up in the mob mentality that often happens in mob situations. They should still face consequences, but this insurrection stuff for those people is laughable. An honest person can admit this. -

There is video of security at one of the entrances pulling aside the bicycle stand from an otherwise docile crowd and letting them in. This has been discussed here back when it happened, and the video posted, but I don't know how to easily find it now. I believe that @Fnordfrom Team Blue can corroborate this. -
@weepawsdoesn't respond to questions for which he has no answers. I've asked him a bunch of times what his solution is to his repeated comments about the red team and blue team both sucking, he has nothing so he ignores it.

Your cut and paste about the Hur report on the is exactly what I said, thanks for corroborating. I didn't say the NY joke case is about tax fraud, read better. Regarding Hillary, you are technically correct. Technically she smashed cell phones which had evidence of what was on the servers, which she lobotomized before turning in. https://www.newsweek.com/fact-check-hillary-clinton-hammer-private-email-server-evidence-fbi-1806046 Not intentional misconduct.

This has nothing to do with my post. Otherwise good job, good effort.

The problem is, as Scott Adams has said: you and I are watching different movies of events. Let me show you my movie. In my movie, The Stormy Daniels thing was a laughable joke. Something the feds long ago conclude was a dog with absolutely no bite, but some idiot in NY ran on getting the evil orange man. Sticking with your home state, this real estate valuation thing is a farce. In AZ, the tax value of my property is ridiculously low. I'm not complaining, but if somebody said that I did something wrong by valuing my property at market value instead of tax appraisal, I'd laugh in their face. In my movie, I'm reminding you that this is happening to the Republican candidate for POTUS. And I would be embarrassed if I lived in NY. I've always thought 1/6 was a joke, but the Left is so invested on somehow interpreting Trump's words as a call to invade the Capitol that I'm not sure it's worth discussing. I'll merely say in my movie, his words clearly did no such thing. Did he sit there enjoying that people were doing it for him? Yeah, he's a petulant pr1ck. But that's not illegal, and not insurrection... wait, he wasn't charged with insurrection, he was charged with four obscure items from the US Code. In my movie, this isn't done to the Republican candidate for POTUS. The Georgia thing, I've always thought was the most questionable of Trump's actions. I'm fundamentally fine with that being adjudicated, but it would have been nice to not wait until the election year to actually get around to doing it, at least in my movie. I'll end with the confidential docs, as I think this shows the most obvious difference in how things are handled. In my movie, I create a venn diagram of Trump and Biden's behavior, and I see how we can excuse Biden. The union of the two circles is: they both had confidential docs in unsecured places. Since this includes Biden, it is considered excusable. On the Biden-only side, he had docs he should never have had as VP. That seems kinda bad, no? Apparently not, or he's too old to be convicted. On the Trump-only side, he didn't return the docs fast enough. That's it! That's the bad thing! Not having docs he shouldn't have, but not returning them in time! Hillary literally destroyed her illegal server, which surely had confidential information, and it was deemed "no biggie." Trump, on the other hand, is charged for not returning the docs in a timely fashion. This is the movie I am watching. I'm confident that in your movie, all of the stuff I've listed is truly egregiously bad, worthy of indictment of the POTUS candidate of one of the two major political parties in our country. I look forward to your response.

You think a conservative objected to the American flag in a truck?

Hells yeah. She has a fit body, a great rack, and a lot of passion. I'm not looking to marry her, or even talk to her in the morning.

Who should be president, weepaws? I feel like I've asked this question before.

Also retired. Today is golf day for me. I'll get an aerobic leg workout walking in the desert looking for my ball, and a core workout from swinging a weighted club more often than I'd like.

Death penalty is one thing I've become more liberal on in my old age. I used to be in favor of it (if it were more expedient); now I oppose it. One, I don't think the government should be in the business of killing it's people. Two, I find it more consistent with my overall "sanctity of life" stance with abortion. Yeah I know, this monster is different than an innocent unborn child.

I don't have time to type a real response; heading to a spring training game soon. If you don't hear from me by the end of the week feel free to ping me.

I'm not a Leftist, but let me defend every Leftist position? Also, if you are going to zing me Gutter, at least have the proper number of "nots".

As I've said numerous times, I'm not in the Trump cult. I just don't like the Machine ginning up a bunch of stuff to influence our election process. I've also said numerous times that every time you reference the 91 indictments$#@! I chuckle, because it means the opposite of what you think. That same Machine told you "Trump is bad, he's he's selfish, and lies, and he talks to Putin, and he hit on women when he was young, and he valued his property higher than the tax value, and... wait, we'll show you, we'll throw a bunch of lawsuits at him!" And you look at all those indictments as proof of how bad he is. You are such a simp on this topic. Meanwhile Joe Biden didn't want his kids growing up in a racial jungle; meh, that was in the past. Stole confidential docs as a VP? Meh, he's a nice old guy, let's let him slide on this one. There might be more but I'll stop there.
