“Hey, it’s Vinny Bagadonutz!”

Family style servings!!! :) LOL

I understand that, but I have to wonder if they lost any from the strong winds just shearing them off where the windmills meet the ground - think like how a light post might get hit with tons of wind and get sheared off, or a tree getting hit with hurricane force winds and shearing off at the ground level. That’s more…

1) Pick up a copy of Howard Zinn’s “A People’s History of The United States”.

Well, I believe in it in a way that science has dictated that, if I cool water to below 32 degrees F, it will almost always freeze - unless there’s a quantum hole to a parallel universe where it opens up to water boiling at 32 degrees F instead. :) And yes, you’re pretty much correct in that I believe in reality, and…

Sure. It’s called “science”. I’ve actually had people scoff at me because I believe in it.

This just makes me wonder - how are the wind generators holding up? I know Holland has a lot to pump water out of the dikes, and keep the cities from flooding, but with wind that strong, that’s liable to shear the generators clean off the ground...

Ok, this is going to sound dumb, but...How do people NOT know this is how you stack plates? Largest to smallest, silverware on top, instead of in between which can cause things to do that slip n’ slide when someone would pick it up?

The comment of “my button is bigger than yours” to North Korea was patently ridiculous. All I could think was, “Seriously??? We have a dick measuring contest with NUCLEAR WEAPONS?!?”

That’s the sad thing. I wasn’t bothered by the cast. I was bothered by the slapstick efforts to come out of the film. Feig was REALLY trying hard to sell us that men were dumb and women were smart, and yet he failed miserably by having Leslie Jones play a borderline Stepin Fetchit/Sambo type character, that was almost…

I live in San Diego. We’re pretty much guaranteed to be a target for nuclear strikes should World War III break out. We have the Marine Corps Recruit Depot, 32nd St. Naval Pier, Naval Air Station Coronado, where the USS Ronald Reagan is stationed, along with various other ships. We have Marine Corps Air Station…

If a nuke hits YOU, regardless of whether it’s one or a whole bunch, you still die.

I wouldn’t doubt that one bit. Although, she DID say in a few interviews in the late 90's that she saw herself as a little bit of a bitch...I wonder how much of that was “I don’t want to do what you want for threat of ruining me” and how much was her just giving them the finger because she felt she could...

Agreed! How is this not part of the understanding??? If a woman says, “Hey, that’s not comfortable - don’t do that!”, how hard is that to understand, in the middle of the act? If you play the game of, “She wanted it...” it’s rape.

Sharon Stone was the body all the guys at my high school couldn’t stop staring at after they saw Basic Instinct, and the “flash”.

And who’s to say she didn’t have any training with Luke? We know he tried to train her son, and others; I wouldn’t be surprised if she had a little bit of work with her brother in the time between ROTJ and TLJ...It’s believable. I’m not disagreeing with you; I think she could’ve reasonably done the force pull as you…

I didn’t have a problem with Leia saving herself using the Force. I figured she’d trained a little bit between Return of the Jedi and then, to have some Force powers. I mean, we knew she had a little bit in Empire, when she finds Luke beneath Bespin. No huge surprise.

Where I had an issue was that we all know Carrie…

Bull. You know it and I know it. I can make a direct comparison to pretty much any year between 1981 and 1989 and just interchange Reagan and Gorbachev for Trump and Kim Jong Un.

Exactly. I don’t want to be under the worry that will happen again.

I just...I give up. I lived through the end of the Cold War, and the promises of “Star Wars” and the anti-missile defense system that Reagan imagined. When the Soviet Union fell, and the Berlin Wall came down, it was amazing how much less panic there was.
