Re: Shame on Boston.

Shame on Boston. You should be ashamed of yourselves for allowing a crowd of privileged, liberal brats, most likely white liberal kids, from well-to-do families to roam the streets harassing elderly people for thrills. These spoiled young liberals have too much money and not enough purpose. Where d...

So you decided to add the missing quotation mark to this comment?.... :P

Re: Israel at War

If Hamas survives as an organization, they will continue to kill Jews. In response, the Israelis will continue to try to destroy Hamas. Hamas, in turn, will continue to use the people of Gaza as human shields and starve babies for propaganda. They said the same about Fatah and the PLO, and now they...

Just Shot Jeopardy in the Head

Why doesn’t someone take poor old Jeppie out back and shoot it in the head and end its suffering. It’s clearly in misery. There was a time when Jeopardy! challenged viewers with academic questions: history, science, mathematics. It was a show where you could test your knowledge, learn something new,...

CBS and NBC and bad business

It seems CBS and NBC recently canceled their late-night talk shows — one hosted by Jimmy Kimmel, the other by Stephen Colbert. There’s a lesson to be learned from this: in business, it’s generally unwise to go out of your way to antagonize half — or perhaps more than half — of your potential market....

Re: New York City mayoral candidate Mamdani

One idea that does seem to have potential is the concept of a city-owned grocery store. For it to truly serve the people, it would need to operate on a very low margin—perhaps as low as 0.5%—and focus heavily on sourcing food from local farms, dairies, and ranches. Costs could be further reduced by...

If the New York City mayoral candidate Mamdani turns out to be a communist, an ideology historically associated with regimes that have committed mass murder, then he could be seen as an enemy to all freedom-loving and decent people. That said, some of his ideas may not be entirely without merit. The...
