  1. Best comments I saw on the Walker video:

    On Youtube: People like this are why we have instructions on a bottle of shampoo.

    On Twitter: I want to know what Biden's plans are for bringing our good air back from China.

    In my opinion, Musk either got caught by Twitter calling his bluff, OR he had this planned out so he could liquidate a sizable portion of his Tesla stock without tanking the price.

    OR he is just an immature man-child who made an impulse purchase w/o rationally thinking it through.

    Hi Robert,

    From your link:  Apparently fed up with both leaders, Musk has moved on to DeSantis.

    And I doubt that Musk will stick with DeSantis for long.

    Meh; He'll just sign an agreement to purchase DeSantis, then change his mind and get into a big shit-fest over it.

    Come on, man, you could make the same point about a 1st grader's Guinea Pig. If she sells it in the 2nd grade for half again more she's not gouging she's just a kid selling a Guinea Pig for a profit. That's in no way similar to BillVon constraining the worldwide supply of guinea pigs to create an artificial shortage and raise wholesale prices. I wouldn't put it past him, who would, but it's not the same. 

    I had always imagined Bill was in the business of buying/selling ducks.


  5. DOJ not impressed with Bannon's offer to testify:

    Steve Bannon's defense accused of lying to a judge – in after midnight DOJ court filing: report

    On June 29, 2022, former President Donald Trump's attorney, who sent the letter on which the defendant claimed his noncompliance was based, confirmed what his correspondence has already established: that the former president never invoked executive privilege over any particular information or materials; that the former president's counsel never asked or was asked to attend the defendant's deposition before the select committee, that the defendant's attorney misrepresented to the committee what the former president's counsel had told the defendant's attorney; and that the letter provided no basis for total noncompliance


  6. In college, I took a couple semesters of Spanish, and a couple semesters of Russian.

    Spanish, because I planned to eventually move to the SW portion of the country. That part of the plan worked out.

    Russian, because the Berlin Wall fell while I was in school, and I thought there might be business opportunities opening up with the former parts of the Soviet Union. I didn't expect Russia to go back to having a czar a few years later.

    The only place for spanking is in the bedroom or dungeon between consenting adults.

    You don't appreciate a lot of stuff in school until you get older. Little things like being spanked every day by a middle-aged woman: Stuff you pay good money for in later life.

    Errrrm actually no. He can’t even resign properly. 
     

    He’s stepping down as leader of his party but aiming to stay as ‘interim’ Prime Minister until the stories can pick a new leader at their conference in October. This saga is not finished yet.

    Doesn't the UK have something like impeachment?
