And yet, since so many of his ilk have such puritanical attitudes towards sexuality, the fact that his downfall will be because of ethics lapses related to his own dalliances still has karmic value. They got Capone for tax evasion, after all. A win is a win.

Similar nuisance laws are being passed across the country, in states like New York, Arizona and Wisconsin

Bredar said he was convinced the consent decree is necessary after reviewing the Justice Department investigation. Perhaps Sessions should read it, too.

Jesus liked poor people, assholes.

I have been a Walter Hill fan for decades, and count many of his movies as all-time favorites (even his sometimes maligned, but truly wondrous, Streets of Fire.) That includes his work as a screenwriter, not just a director, and I am one of the few who will passionately argue that his shooting draft for Alien is one…

We see these beautiful pictures at night from the decks of these two U.S. Navy vessels in the Eastern Mediterranean. I am tempted to quote the great Leonard Cohen: “I am guided by the beauty of our weapons.” And they are beautiful pictures of fearsome armaments making what is for them a brief flight over this…

3. What the fuck is wrong with you people?

Depending on the region, Dr. Pepper is either distributed by Pepsi-Cola or Coke. In my area, it is Pepsi. So no, I seriously doubt that Cadbury-Schwepps wants to bite the hand that puts it on the shelf.

“An Airbnb spokesperson told NBC 4 that the host has been permanently removed from the site under the site’s non-discrimination policy.” 

In that case, he wishes that they took it all the way. . .

“Despite Sessions’ threat, Baltimore officials were prepared to move forward with the prescribed reforms, with or without the consent decree in place.”

Well, I was talking about the sedan, not the wagon, but yes, GM hosed us on the wagon & the ute. But considering how poorly the sedan has sold, that is no surprise.

“’I think he shouldn’t have settled; personally I think he shouldn’t have settled,’ said Mr. Trump. ‘Because you should have taken it all the way. I don’t think Bill did anything wrong.’”

“We” in the global sense.

I was actually looking for Ash from Armies of Darkness saying the same thing, since it would have fit in the stormy environment better, but could not find it, so Farley had to do.
