  1. Or maybe stop smoking it
  2. The Commanders remind me a lot of what expected the Bears might be. Except the Commanders seem to have competent coaching. They could be scary.
  3. That could be scary. Washington is schizophrenic
  4. Phil Lewis ‪@phillewis.bsky.social‬ Follow Unpaywalled article: Canada PM Trudeau to announce resignation as early as Monday, Globe and Mail reports Canada PM Trudeau to announce resignation as early as Monday, Globe and Mail reports Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is expected to announce as early as Monday that he will resign as Liberal Party Leader, The Globe and Mail reported on Sunday, citing three sources.
  5. Just curious, what brand do you have. We've been discussing one for the master bath. Not interested in doing the required wiring for a heated one, I'll get used to the cold water
  6. Well, I never been to heaven But I been to Oklahoma Well, they tell me I was born there But I really don't remember In Oklahoma, not Arizona What does it matter? What does it matter?
  7. The grift that keeps on grifting https://bsky.app/profile/zacheverson.com/post/3leypzs3tl22o
  8. They've closed them down here too, probably just as well. I did get a note that Colonial Williamsburg was not opening til 11 AM. I guess current colonialists aren't as they were back in 1774.
  9. Commanders take Dallas. Gets the fifth seed.
  10. Bears pull it out on a last second FG
  11. Senator Sheldon Whitehouse ‪@whitehouse.senate.gov‬ Follow Here’s a timely phrase: “a parasitical oligarchy devouring the happiness of the many to feed the pleasures of the few” — and now about to be using the powers of government.

  12. True, I've seen in much worse in Richmond and Norfolk in the '70s and '80s. Then again as a former traffic reporter, the first significant or even first snowfall screws up traffic no matter where you are. People forget how to drive and then you get the yahoos in their pickups or SUV's who think that they can't skid on ice.
  13. I’ve seen 2-4 inches here, maybe .inches of ice. The local HT is packed. We may be stuck indoors for weeks
  14. From what I've read the Jefferson prayer has been bandied about since the early 1900's. First promoted by John McQuire from Connecticut. (For MAGA that was when Democrats were the conservative leading pro slave party, before Nixon was the One and Reagan sealed the deal) It has been published several times since, mostly in right leaning religious magazines.) I'm not sure the honorable SOH is that aware of its history
  15. A press release from the GOP. Great
  16. Not surprising, https://www.mlive.com/news/grand-rapids/2025/01/trump-campaign-still-owes-grand-rapids-nearly-50k-for-2024-rallies-city-says.html?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR0R4IvIK1kS4UkoJ_41wrmY8aBZzHIl-7tCRKtX_kA6LAMpZ3yu45smjfY_aem_wN8ySEEN5-ozHDcrtjTB9A
  17. Never a direct answer to a question. Always a deflection
  18. A 22-year-old arrangement between the Departments of Veterans Affairs and Immigration and Customs Enforcement has drawn ire from conservatives in Congress, who claim it puts health care for detained migrants over that of veterans. But VA officials say it has no impact whatsoever on veterans' services or health care -- and costs the agency nothing. Since 2002, the VA's Financial Services Center, or FSC, has processed medical claims for an ICE program office that is responsible for providing health care for migrants detained by the border security agency. The VA center facilitates the same work under separate contracts for a variety of other federal offices. VA officials said Thursday that, while taxpayer funding is used to process the health care claims, ICE, not the VA, pays for the work. And, VA Press Secretary Terrence Hayes added, the VA has never provided health care to migrant detainees. "VA does not provide or fund any health care to ICE detainees. There is a 2002 payment processing agreement, in which ICE pays for the FSC to process payments for ICE-funded health care. This involves no more than 10 employees, is fully paid for by ICE, and has been in place for every administration since 2002," Hayes said in a statement to Military.com. https://www.military.com/daily-news/2024/01/11/va-paying-migrant-health-care-agency-says-no-despite-wave-of-political-attacks.html
  19. Citation please. Show your work
  20. That was the draw of Twitter back in the day. Especially when there was breaking news. As a guy who grew up in broadcasting way back in the 70s, it was almost like having your own personal news wire machine.
