Hey wesw! Let me be the first (only) one to say Welcome Back! Then again it may just be that I'm either off or on my meds again. I can't remember which one it is that happens when you seem to appear...

but hey, gallows humor is under-appreciated.

You'll probably have a difficult time selling that pedestrian bridge. They're not very exciting.

Trump fired Tillerson as Secretary of State :cry: .... and now wesw is back. :shock: :o
Draw your own conclusions .. :lol: :lol:

Seriously though, wesw, you will of course have to bring us up to speed as to what you were doing this past year or so.

Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?

anyway, the frggin pedestrian bridge was supposed to have a center support.

can t hold up traffic tho...I m sure they ll get to it eventually....

and the friggin rescue efforts were so fucked up.....

500 first responders and their vehicles clogged the scene.

I saw one friggin crane.

no house moving company... they have way more hydraulic jacks than the firemen and they have more skill and experience

Is wes off pouting again, after deciding to take his ball and go home in several threads?

Perhaps trying to figure out a way to justify Trump carrying the Saudi regime's water for a murder they committed, before posting again.

Well, I've said it before, and I'll say it again...

As exasperating, (and sometimes infuriating) as I frequently find wes's posts I'm glad he's here...

We have a couple of other Trump supporters on the board, but nobody else who "brings the Trumpanzee" the way wes does...

He has a completely convoluted and delusional interpretation of reality, but it's a convoluted and delusional interpretation of reality that sadly is shared by millions of Americans, and I think there's value in having it here to respond to...

Plus wes' posts unquestionably stimulate discussion, and for a forum like this, that is always A Good Thing...

I agree Jim--wes looks at things in a very different way from most of us on this board, and understanding of that way of thinking is important as I think many share that viewpoint. I had a guy in my study group in law school that was a lot like that--I rarely agreed with him on much, but his views in analyzing cases and exam question gave me valuable insight into alternative points of view (sadly, the guy never ended up practicing law because he could only see things through his off center lens; he had a few jobs, and then went back to his pre law school job). I have a lot of problems with understanding the viewpoint of Trump supporters, but wes gets me as close to seeing that point of view as I think I can get. Of course, there are times when his reasoning eludes me, but then those are posts I ignore.

I, too, agree. I almost always disagree with wesw's POV, but admire his comprehension and verve.

That's okay guys. You don't have to thank me for introducing wesw to Plan B. I'm pretty sure that I convinced RayThom to join us also. I'm real good at spotting character... er... characters.

Who else here - other than Gob - has recruited new people within the last few years? Nobody!!!
