Pirro needs to return to TV where she pretended to be a lawyer..

I does wonders for the soul

I get that. Maybe we shouldn't be electing representatives who do not receive 50.1 percent of the total vote. And maybe that's where ranked choice voting comes in, and possibly move to multi member districts. That said the whole system needs to be reformed. Expand the House, add states like Puerto Rico and DC if you want. I really don't know.

At times I wish there were more than two parties in the US. I'm not sure given our DNA whether it would work, but would go a longer (than now) way to stop the Party Purity B-S we're seeing now. But that would go along with things like ranked voting and multi member districts.

Youtube is reportedly rolling out a "Sports Only" plan. Still expensive at $65 a month. It will include all the sports packages. Not sure what the local (Detroit and Michigan) cable companies are charging these days for something similar or a ESPN/Disney add on. Bottom line is they wii never be on "Free TV" again. Those days are long gone https://techcrunch.com/2026/02/09/youtube-tv-introduces-cheaper-bundles-including-a-65-month-sports-package/

Washington warned about political "factions" in his Farewell Address. He feared political parties would place loyalty to the party over the good of the country. Unfortunately, two of his cabinet members disagreed...

Everybody over 65 so they (MAGA) won't have to supplement healthcare or pay Social Security. 2) Anyone who doesn't pass their loyalty tests

Naturally she's not running for reelection...

From the CBC,,,Trump endorsed the project in 2017. The alcohol smuggling owners of the Ambassador Bridge have to be involved https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/trump-gordie-howe-bridge-9.7081924

Nice comback after losing to the Koreans the other night

Bugs Bunny, Mighty Mouse, some of the Disney stuff, all introduction to classical music back when we were a certain age. But then I'm old enough to remember the Young People's Concerts with Leonard Bernstein regularly as well.

I'm not sure if I made the comment here or someplace else. But i would love to see a good old fashion marching band halftime show. Some of the performances I've seen on YouTube and other places show some amazing works and innovative styles.

Just sayin...

The Regime has cut over $890 million from programs to help English learners develop English proficiency then complains about non english speaking programs. About 15% of residents speak Spanish at home according to recent census figures. As I told one guy on FB last night, maybe when Europeans invaded the country back about 1619 they should have learned the NATIVE languages European Privilege sucks

It was also a logistics solution. The most expediant way to move that many "plants" given time and cart restrictions,

I think you are correct about political leanings. BTW, the "plants" were real people..

My taste in music leans closer to Brandi Carlisle and classic rock as well as Americana music. I will say up front I've never been a Kid Rock fan, or heavy metal, the closest was probably fascination with The Steve Miller Band. I'm an old fart. That said I found the music and production from last night's Half Time Show to be a very joyous celebration. The production aspect was excellent, even more so after reading Wired's report about how the managed to get everything he wanted accomplished in the time restrictions and the confines of the NFL guidelines because the field had real grass. I don't care if I couldn't understand the lyrics. To those who complain go to the opera sometime, try an evening at your symphony or a community band. You just might learn something by expanding your horizons. Edit, link to Wired piece https://www.wired.com/video/watch/untold-story-bad-bunny-historic-super-bowl-halftime-show

BTW, guess who isn't in the Epstein files? OBAMA

I don't know. This sounds a lot like the pre MAGA GOP....

I think it's a combination of "it's a tourist thing, and we ate there when I was young..." I agree, neither of the above is my must go to's. Then again I've been there, done that, bought the Xmas ornament, Much like places here that get a lot of social media recommendations. They are OK, not great. I include the Colonial Williamsburg Taverns as well as the hotel, The taverns (Kings Arms and Christiana Campbells) are for the novelty, the food is good but not great. The couple of times we've dined at the Hotel, I found the food to be mediocre, but it's also buffet style. There are several places nearby that I prefer.
