Some people just want to get ahead. They look over to their left and there is a long line of folks ahead of them, then they look to the right and the line is very, very short. Hey, that’s the line for me.

Chancellor Drumph wants even more statues, suggesting that Benedict Arnold should also be put up in bronze. ‘He did a lot of good things during the War of Independence, until, you know....’

This is the sort of thing that keeps football/soccer from gaining ground in North America. You’d never hear American Football players like Tom Brady complaining about justified suspensions. No wait......

As an old (are there any other kind) Brooklyn Dodger fan, just love the small ball game. Surprised to find out (thank you Baseball-Almanac) that Jackie never did it; on the bases he did everything else.

and a good judge of character.

Lifestyle and age weakens the immune system; he needs to take the Pneumococcal Vaccine. Surviving pneumonia does not make you stronger, in fact can make getting it again easier (yearly flu shots for Jeremy would also be in order).

You are totally right about not putting down our arms because a few important battles have been won. The haters will only stop when they die and they generally indoctrinate their unfortunate children with the same filth (see photo of toddler in KKK outfit at Charlottesville). I’m seeing things today that were…

Give him his props, he has some talent (C+ Song and Dance Man). He’s the perfect fill-in guest for late night shows and has transcended the Peter Principle bigly being a host.

I never said racism will never go away. Because of our built in xenophobia , human beings will always be distrustful of the ‘other’ the ‘strange’. The pendulum will swing back so that the white will be the other. Louis CK did a great monologue about how white European peoples have had it their own way for the last…

Eventually non-whites will outnumber the whites and if America is still a democracy the pendulum will swing in the other direction. This is small comfort I know, but it scaring the white supremacists right now.

Unless we are talking going nuclear, America is not ready to take on NK with conventional weapons (see Desert Storm). Months of build up would be necessary (se Foxtrot Alpha).

Yeah, but the cigarette smoking is way down; heck they have even removed the ash trays from the ice.

Absolutely right on the nose (see Margaret Court Smith).

A colleague I worked with for many years used to say her ideal lover would make love to her all night and then turn into a pizza at 2:00 am. So I guess pizza it is.

I remember the sixties and seventies when young, bright and scared American men crossed the border to avoid Vietnam (most didn’t have rich dads who could bribe MD’s to get medical deferments). At the time, it was a reversal of the Canadian brain drain (a lot of Canadians would get their government subsidized college…

Scientology specifically targeted the Hollywood set back in the day to boost the church’s profile; the hippie members of the 70's were not bringing in the cash. It is a perfect group to recruit into the cult. American show people are somewhat neurotic, shallow and not very bright (sorry being good a playing make…

Totally disagree with Simmons take on Genie’s career, however she is doing herself no favours with her Jay Cutler like persona. When asked about how she feels about another young Canadian Ladies player, she said it would be good for someone else to carry the ‘burden’ of Canada. Genie needs to decide whether she is…

South has the worst public education (poorest funded, poorest post secondary stats) and the highest authoritarian abuses. No surprise its citizens regularly vote against their best interests. Union organizers will just have to keep at it, trade unions took a long time to be accepted a hundred years ago. The South…

Speaking of missing, I hope the North Korean missiles guidance systems don’t mistake BC for California. I’d much rather die of radiation poisoning than instant defragmentation. No wait, maybe not.

The Theory of Gravity is only a theory. The alt right gravity deniers think more study is needed since this could only be a one off.
