Dear Sherman,

A former co-worker would tell management she had a migraine. 

The absolute worst I’ve ever driven, was the rinky-dink 2.2 liter carbureted 84 hp K-car engine in my 1983 Chrysler Lebaron 4 door. This was a car that would start a climb on a hilly section of the Merritt Parkway at 55 MPH and would slow to about 35 MPH with the pedal to the floor as it struggled to climb the incline.

Wow, someone *my* age! I went with the ‘53 Hudson Hornet Twin-H Convertible, but I love your exotic taste!

As a genuine antique human, I’d have to go with a 1953 Hudson Hornet Twin-H Convertible.

I’ll clean up the quote a little:

A manual CVT. And from automobiling’s early years. Mind blown.

So, now Democrats not only have to pack the SCOTUS, there will be a whole lot of recently-appointed federal judges who will have to be re-assigned to Nome or Fairbanks, or a soon-to-be-created circuit court located in Barrow or Prudhoe Bay . . . of course, judges who refuse a transfer can always resign.

The meme that infected radical feminism in the late 1970's with this anti-trans theme can be traced to the birth-genital essentialism of Roman Catholic theology. Janice Raymond, a former member of the Sisters of Mercy (an order of nuns best known for running those horrificIrish Magdalene Aslums), expanded her doctoral…

In order to give Schultz broader appeal to the right wing, Schmidt will attempt to convince Sarah Palin to be photographed drinking Starbucks coffee . . .

Remember Valerie Plame?

The arbiters of “style” might do better to bring back spats - at least one would not trip over them! See:

I’ll just leave this here:

The hundred student walkout in support of the teacher is indicative of how deeply rooted anti-trans sentiment remains in parts of the community. One wonders whether Roger Severino will take an interest.

“Running Dog” Don Junior seems to fear being on the menu - but that is not a literal one. The only menu he’ll be on is an indictment, followed by a fair trial, conviction, sentencing and incarceration.

An American version might be called a “Mini-KIng Cab Pickup Truck” - or maybe a “Little Prince Cab Pickup?

I can see this happening. A few years back, my elderly mom was frustrated by the fact that everyone else seemed to have SUVs or pick-up trucks, that she no longer felt safe backing out of a parking space in her car because her view to the right and left would be cut off by hulking behemoths to either side.

Rick Scott looks like the embodiment of Skeletor, but has fewer moral scruples, and while he has a history of medical insurance fraud that did not stop him from becoming governor, he now wants to add voting fraud to his long list of bad doings - and he has the gall to project his own evil machinations onto Democrats.…

It might be the flux capacitor - get it up to 88 mph . . .

I have found Myers-Briggs useful - as long as one understands that everyone is each still a unique individual and not a cardboard cutout that comes in 16 (or 4, or 64) “types,” and that all the inventory does is help paint in broad brushstrokes.
