My basic philosophy, too. Eat colorful, whole foods. Drink water. Exercise your heart. Lift heavy. It seems to work.

It’s always been the way with the Clintons, though. Surely, something is fishy about them. Repeated investigations. Time and money and bandwidth spent and nothing gained. Rinse and repeat.

Tammany Hall? I’d settle for getting earmarks back. At least we, the little people, got a little pork out of the pork barrel now and then.

Bevin is a dangerous piece of shit. He’s got eyes on running for President.

Wow, really? I didn’t know and didn’t bother to look. I saw it last night and honestly I felt like it was a little short. I guess that speaks to good pacing.

In Asia I usually skip the burgers and gravitate toward Yoshinoya or Yonghe Soymilk 永和豆漿 (or any of the several soymilk/quick eats chains with “Yonghe” in the name).

OP was talking about older white men who try to rope him into their racist bullshit because he is also white. It also happens to me, particularly with white men of a certain age. In my experience it’s often suggestive speech that is less overtly racist, more of a “wink and a nod” to racist worldviews.

That little kid’s enthusiasm is cute and a little evil...

Exactly my father’s experience. He was rich! Until he wasn’t.

Sadly very true.

“that alone pretty much puts him in the DC Hall of Fame”

Offer also applies to abortions for inconvenient pregnancies, sex with someone of the same gender, liberal arts degrees, and publicly funded health insurance, among other things.

I have a cruel desire, in a very ugly part of my brain, to watch these programs go down the tubes just to see the look on my parents’ faces now that they rely upon them. When I was a kid, when Ronnie Raygun was in the White House, I’m sure they thought they’d retire as bazillionaires, and so it was easy to fling…

Many of them have (see: Paul Ryan). But the Republican Golden Rule is: Always for me but not for thee.

I never looked at a Prius in quite the same way again.

This is a good way to go. My wife’s family wanted a yuuuuge wedding with their giant extended family and everyone else they felt obligated to invite. We decided to do the ceremony with a few people in a park and let her parents rent out a restaurant to do a “y’all come” reception the next day. It went fine and…
