Re: National Public Radio, so left it leans on the ground
The Hunter Biden computer story was very personal to me. The computer guy who had the mysterious hard drive with lots of juicy stuff on it was a very important guy for me. He ran a one man business in a little business neighbor hood that also had the dentist who did a root canal on me that was less ...

Re: 2024 Presidential polls and projections
I guess it is fortunate that tomorrow is Tuesday, but not the first Tuesday in November. Way back in 1969 a had a graduate Poli Sci class on elections in the USofA. It was taken as well established that the voters who decided their votes at the last minute, were also the least informed voters and ma...

Thank you , Mr Liberty for another demonstration of your analytical skills.

Re: Arise citizens!
People I know and respect told me way back when Les Mis was the hot ticket on broadway that this was a great demonstration of musical theater. Live theater, even local community productions, have been beyond my finances back then, and now. Now suicide is a primary focus for my life. IMNSHO, professi...

Re: Arise citizens!
I had to revive this thread because I just watched the 2012 movie version of Les Miserables. I have a question, but I liked seeing these posters that I have missed greatly. What is the general evaluation of the music in this stage/cinematic production? For reason that are not relevant here, I am foc...

Re: An Eclipse.... woop dee doo!
People are crazy? I have friends in Texas that tell me there are believed stories of food (and toilet paper) shortages to be caused by this fairly common event. (Happens somewhere on this planet about every 18 months,.)

Re: The Amazons
IMNSHO, people who use the English language to aks questions like: " people or just a myth?" have a very limited understanding of language and communication skills.
An association of ideas become a myth BECAUSE it is a tool for sharing a reality that is important to that society.

Re: Israel at War
I revise my post up above about the four hour 42 minute delay in responding to the invasion. I now think those jewish villages were bait for the Zionists must be Destroyed! crowd. The more than 4 hour delay was to give the fish plenty of time to swallow the bait. Yesterday evening I hear an IDF spok...

the incredible non-shrinking coffee can
75 years ago the one pound coffee can and the one quart mason jar were versatile and ubiquitous storage containers. The can had an air-tight lid and the jar let you see what was inside. Small parts, screws, bolts, nails all kinds of stuff accumulated in taking things apart for other uses or repair. ...

That picture just above, Is he holding a two iron? I am not a golfer, but I have been told that if a golfer is caught out on the fairway in a lightening storm, one should hold up a Two Iron, because not even God can hit a two iron.

Re: Do Unto Others...
I have a nearly instinctive belief that anyone selling bibles is a crook. There seems to be an aroma of exploitation that always goes with them.
Completely in contrast to my default reaction toward anyone operating a book store.

Re: Ignorance of the Law IS a Defense?
No, lack of evidence on the part of the prosecution is a defense. Personally, I think she was probably voting Republican. There have been 'many, many' instances of established voter fraud, nearly all of them by Republicans.
