Sweet Christ on a bike. What malignancies will we face tomorrow? Stay tuned. It’s a surefire quotidian guarantee that there will be something uncut diabolical.

Collusion (says this 0.0 wins-above-replacement lawyer) will be a bitch to prove.

You can actually be too depressed to carry out a suicide plan. This I know.

1946 thru October 1963

Never for a moment did I consider Mike Pence a monster. However—God-struck, wussified, fuckwittish, bleating, wind-up, otiose, hypocritical tool—these qualities abide our question.

If modestly concealed, it does not.

And hey! In my state (WA), unwanted physical contact (includes mere touching) with a sexual motivation is a Class C Felony! So this set now includes not only our President, but Oscar-winning stubbler Ben Affleck! To whom shall I now look for moral guidance?

Our “leadership’s” efforts to the contrary, we’re going to have a, well, perhaps unprecedented involvement in global affairs before too long a time has passed, if you know what I mean, and I’ll bet that you do.

Corporations are not “bad,” nor do they “suck,” and so forth, anymore than a monitor lizard or a tardigrade sucks. They are steadfastly true to their natures—admirably so. It’s statutory law, bolstered by common law, in my state, and I’ll wager in all of the rest, that a corporate entity’s only—not primarily, but sole…

Palace eunuch in prodromal trough before full-blown Korsakoff’s Syndrome

I have been reading the work of Lt. Col. Robert Bateman (USA ret.) for some years, going back to the Iraqi invasion. He is, among other things, an historian, as well as a shrewd analyst of politico-military trends. You can find him these days in the politics section of Esquire magazine. Insofar as North Korea goes, he…

Sister Rosetta was sui generis. Should have been in long ago—at least, if the R & R Hall of Fame wasn’t antithetical to the crucial exposition of R & R, which was rebellion made manifest—and I emphasize here, not to be soi-disant shocking, calculated careerism without a core, e.g. Madonna, but to expose and reject and…

Cholula Chili Garlic—intense flavors, hot, but only to the extent that it enhances the tastes of the fundamental dish

Right you are, sir, on your precise definitions. But I suspect that McClean didn’t mean it in that context, and even so, a general audience wouldn’t be aware of these fine points.

Alabama for sure, perhaps also DC. But if memory serves, you don’t have to be a licensed attorney to hold the office of AG—and elsewhere, you needn’t be a licensed attorney in order to be a judge.

He’s also an officer of the court and with his every act disparages that privilege. He’s under threat of discipline for his many lies under oath when before Congress. How sweet would it be if trump’s AG got disbarred?

Question for any member of the AL State Bar Ass’n: since Moore has been twice removed from his office, is it yet appropriate under your rules for him to campaign as “Judge” Roy Moore? And is he still a Bar member in good standing?

She rocked out to American Pie? Now *that* was actually The Day The Music Died.

If SHS can get over on you, it’s time to hang up your jock and let someone skilled in the art of cross-examination take your seat.

My dear friend Tom, who passed away several years ago, served as an officer in the US Army for 24 years. He was already fighting in Korea when the Red Chinese came over the hill. His battalion suffered so many casualties that it had to be disbanded and re-formed. Unlike our magnificent leader, he had firm ethical…
