Like this country studies history... even recent history. We all know Obama crashed the economy, started two wars, wrecked healthcare and helped the Clintons start a pedophile ring in a pizza shop. The fact that none of that happened doesn’t deter half the population from believing it. There is a sizable group that…

A quality fatty pepperoni leaks oil like the Valdez. If you get a NY slice without some red drip, your eating a much less flavorful pep.

We can only hope social media “influencing” dies as a business model with this pandemic. People needlessly starving to death and dying of dysentery before the pandemic yet a large portion of our society was wrapped up in the stupidity of what some moron thinks about some relatively pointless product.

Nearly 2 million people around the world die from diarrhea each year. In most cases it is completely preventable if people really cared. What is scary about this is that most of us are now facing a reality that millions of truly poor people face each day of their lives.

No matter how this situation goes down we know two things about the right. First, it will be the dems fault mainly Obama and Hillary. Second if Trump wasn’t in charge, it would have been way worse. Count on it.

General “prepping” is just a good idea anywhere and at any time. Having 2-4 weeks of food, water, basic hygiene products and prescription medications is reasonable.

Buy slowly as it goes down. Given the shift of Americans pushing significant amounts of money into the market via 401k every month regardless of how it does, the market has a massive buffer. Outside of a serious collapse long term losses are unlikely.

Whaaaa! If she cannot manage the press at this juncture she stands zero chance against Trump and the RNC. When Mayor Pete and Amy are kicking your political ass, time to call it.

6'3" linebacker sized fellow around 50 here and I do it on every flight. I don’t have to do it as I can squeeze into those tiny seats but spending the extra to stretch out makes a trip comfortable instead of torturous for me and whoever is sitting next to me.

Liquidating a few thousand companies on the stock market to reduce healthcare costs by maybe 20% is an absurd plan. Unemployment will skyrocket, cities built around the industry will shut down, stock market will drop like a rock overnight and the plan doesn’t even address the largest cost of healthcare which is…

This is a self inflicted wound. It isn’t like housing where a person might be priced out of the market. Cars have a pretty flat price and newer used cars are extremely reliable. I can afford to drive an absurdly expensive car but I drive an old beat up Ridgeline because cars are a racket built to suck money out of…

We expanded the economy but didn’t restore interest rates to give the fed room to pull us out quickly if we hit another recession. Given that several large overseas markets have slowed and several large markets are looking at borrowing issues, every where we turn outside of US jobs looks a bit ugly. If we do fall into…

Lucas up until the mid-80s was effectively brilliant. THX:1138, American Graffiti, Star Wars, Empire, Indiana... amazing. Then he ran out of magic. It started with Return of the Jedi and he simply never recovered.

You can completely skip PM and not even notice. It adds little useful information to the Star Wars story and is essentially defined by one fight scene.

Mine is 17.91 - 2.92 coupon then tax on top of it. If I wanted to play the game it would be a buck or so with taxes but I didn’t see the $12 deal.

I typically replace “effect” and “affect” with “result” in my head when I am proofing. If it makes zero sense, affect is usually correct otherwise effect. I am sure there are exceptions but generally it works. For example:

Acura TSX? Dependable, respectable and comfortable.

I go Allegiant when I can and book two seats so I can stretch out. Usually cheaper than the big airlines and easier airports but they do not fly to a lot of destinations so YMMV.

Having lived in Atlanta for over 20 years and now residing in Florida... I will take a ride in Florida any day over ATL. Atlanta is Nascar without the training. At least in Florida I can leave some space between me and the car in front without 3 suvs trying to cram in there at high speed. Don’t even get me started on…

The only reason there is a “Florida Man” is because Florida has strong freedom of information laws. Every state has similar crazy stories but most aren’t easily accessible.
