Another great, on-point column for Ham.

I’m going to keep saying “paddywagon.”

Half the reason he’s doing this is to set his boys up to run for office down the line. Can’t let people forget about the brand!

If Obama ran on a “a very clear, concise message on health care” in 2008, that would come as a very big surprise to many in the Democratic Party. Single Payer is a clear, concise message. Taking a Republican program down off the shelf and then trying to convince Democrats to go along with it was brave, but ultimately…

I hear you, but check this out.

As long as Steven “Haunted Dummy” Miller and Tom “Light Treason” Cotton are whispering in Trump’s ear, there will be no deal.

Thank you for your service, Jack.

That same strategy seemed to work out ok for the Republicans.

These words you speak are wise. Dems need to get in a court packing mood too.

Right. It’s people wanting to say “shite”, but realizing that since they don’t live in Layer Cake (the awesome Daniel Craig movie), they’d look like assholes if they did it.

“Confederate Treason Flag”

My dude, that’s not true.

A doofus named Eli, please.

No Mickey Rourke or am I just missing him?

As someone who also greatly appreciates the music of Phish and the Grateful Dead, I know exactly the kind of fan to which you are referring.

The three you listed are great, but you’ve got to have Changes in Latitudes and Son of a Son of a Sailor on there too. After that, there are good single songs on the albums, but that’s about it (I’m looking at you, One Particular Harbor and Volcano).

No, I definitely trend on the younger side of his fandom, but I stopped going to see him regularly when the ticket prices started creeping up into “Rolling Stones/Adele” territory. I found it difficult to reconcile a $200 ticket with the proclaimed Margaritaville lifestyle. I’d go see the Broadway show if a free…

No, but I’ll check him out!

Parrothead here. There is a subset of Buffett fandom that doesn’t acknowledge any of his music past the first six albums. It’s a smart idea.

And you’re basing that on what, exactly?
