Around my house, we just call Colman “the British actress.”  As there is no other.

Everyone should take a look at the drone photos of the camp fire. Check out the trees. Most of them look just fine. In fact, many trees simply didn’t burn, while the houses, underbrush and propane tanks went up in an inferno.  Trees aren’t the problem.  

I dislike the story about the guy who stayed and fought the fire with his hose, who happens to be in my circle of acquaintances. I’m glad he survived, but it’s a terrible example. I’m from Chico, and a friend asked me today, “what happens when you try to save your house with a hose?” My answer was, “you die.”  That’s…

I played with Foss in the early 90's in El Paso.  My band was so fucking punk that Foss would have been punk just by osmosis.

You know where has a surprisingly high level of pm2.5 pollution?  The San Francisco Bay area.  While Western San Francisco is usually very clean because of ocean breezes, the rest of the bay traps smog.  It’s often significantly unhealthy down in the South bay and Oakland.  Add in fires and refineries and it gets…

Here’s what I am doing:

I am also irritated by this, because it just makes her seem like she likes the attention in the same way that Booker and Harris do. It also makes her seem as if she’s naive enough to think that facts matter to Trump supporters.

I’m nearly 100% that it’s my old comment, but I don’t know what user name. Especially that thing about pharmaceutical companies and for-profit education systems. I know that’s me. Weird that it’s not under this account.

I was horrified by the part where she went on and on about how the person who leaked Ford’s letter was a bad person for hurting Ford.  What about the person who attempted to rape Ford?  Huh?  I’m furious, and I say this as a person whose wedding was attended by Susan Collins.

I feel like this is nearly a verbatim copy of a comment I made a while ago, although mine didn’t have the apostrophe mistake.

Somehow it doesn’t seem to make any sense to have all of this play out in a courtroom. It’s just so sad, and anyone who does something like this is so self-evidently out of their mind. It seems as if justice and punishment have no currency in this case.

Yes! La Taqueria is for people who don’t know what a real burrito is. It’s flooded with white dudes wearing plaid shirts and beards. I’ll say it’s a tossup between El Farolito or Cancun, but pretty much any real taqueria is better.

Yes, but one of the words in there is “risk”. Since there is no risk involved in removing the plug, there is no crime.

That is a stupid COD. It seems like many people along the chain in this case should be fired.

Ha, I spent so long trying to think of a funny analog, thanks for coming up with one.

But it can’t be the hinge of the prosecution’s case. It’s transparently false. The presence of a plug has zero bearing on these kayaks floating. Anyone who thinks otherwise has never been in, around, or even looked at one of these kayaks. Removing the plug will no more sink the kayak than singing “yes we have no…

Which is also a complete canard. Had she removed the plug on the top of the kayak, nothing would have happened. The plug ON TOP OF THE KAYAK has nothing to do with his death.

PLEASE! Somebody answer this. This case makes me crazy. The plug simply cannot have anything to do with this case. Why does every article mention it?

She also did not remove the plug so that water would come in. I have this kayak. The plug is on the top. Such a thing is not possible, and it remains an enduring mystery in this case. What the fuck are they they talking about when they talk about the plug?

Pretty much every nice house in the Garden District has tourists taking pictures of it every day, so I don’t think this is really the same.
