Post by wesw »

sec def mattis was asked...., "what keeps you up at night? ".

the immediate , unhesitating reply was...,

"nothing, I keep other people up at night.".

deadpan and deadly serious.

Lying on a security clearance application would constitute perjury, am I right?

Scooter, I don't find anything about Mattis lying on a security clearance application...

Are you thinking of Flynn?

I'm thinking of Kushner, and wondering what our resident Trumpanzee thinks about it.

Drinking is more reliable and far less destructive of brain cells.

Taken from personal experience, I take it. :mrgreen:

Not really, I read very little of Joe Guy/ wes so I can only surmise about the degree of brain damage that a regular diet would cause. I am regularly surprised that anyone responds to his drivel at all. It is boring even as an invented identity.


And as to drinking I've never woken up in jail, as you have, so I cannot speak with authority there either.

Never had a DUI in all my 50 years of driving.

OTOH, you've posted here drunk on several notable occasions. The entertainment value is not to be missed. :nana

Fixed.

(Though not as often as he used to at the CSB; there was one stretch that went on for months when he posted drunk more often than he posted sober...)
