Start imposing taxes on U-S airline flights and cruise ships into countries like Greenland and Canada. Give Trump na taste of own medicine. Also remind Donald who paid for the Howe Bridge when it opens

All this talk and desire for oil, but maybe this is where real money is. And the Orange Mussolini holds a grudge because he's still in the 1950s

I've spent a bit of time in traffic in Indiana. Not exactly the sharpest tools in the shed when it comes to drivers

Meanwhile that same road construction has closed one of the 2 main entrances to the subdivisions around us. It only adds a few more minutes to the trip, just a bit of a pain traveling about 3 miles out of your way to get to the nearest grocery store. We're still in a bit of a shopping wasteland here. It seems longer, but its about a 15 minute drive to the Food Lion. While they do a good job, the increase in the nearby population takes a toll on availability and staff is constantly restocking. The next closest is another 15 minute drive. A real pain if your just looking for a few items

Our area has a combination of cameras on buses as well as speed cameras in school zones. The neighboring county has placed speed cameras along the interstate in the construction zone. Anyone clocked at more than ten miles over the posted speed limit gets a ticket in the mail. It's been quite profitable for them

The good news is it's an extremely slow time in CW. Most "passers thru" are hopefully vaccinated. Will probably carry a mask just in case

The initial British raid on Norfolk’s waterfront on New Year’s Day burned nineteen buildings, worth three thousand pounds (added to the thirty-two houses, worth two thousand pounds, Lord Dunmore razed while fortifying the town when the British were still in control of it). Howe & Woodford’s official communications will simply omit that it is Virginia & North Carolina troops who are responsible for destroying the eighth-largest town in the Thirteen Colonies, nor will they correct anyone who speaks or writes to them of British forces’ “horrid work.” The Virginia Convention’s initial investigation will be headed by Howe himself, and it will conclude, unsurprisingly, that it is the British who destroyed the town—a conclusion that Americans will simply accept. In 1777, after petitions from townsfolk, a further investigation will unearth the truth of matters, at which time the state legislature will compensate those victims who are not Loyalists. But the new investigation’s report will be kept secret. Not until the 1830s will the Virginia government make the report public, and even then it will be buried in a legislative journal. It will be the twentieth century before historians discover the truth of the burning of Norfolk.

As long as Trump apologizers are in the majority the sheep will remain silent..

I wouldn’t trust any one of these people to run a simple game bored Rover

Marco looks absolutely thrilled

We learned absolutely nothing from Viet Nam, Iraq, Afghanistan etc What we really need is country leaders lead from the front lines. Not draft dodgers making decisions behind a safe desk

The "perfect" GM is unwilling to put down his beer and back away from the screen to acctually acomplish anything. (20 plus years of APBA and a couple of the simlpified version of OOTP and I still know ****)

So do the Lions promote Scotty Montgomery as I've seen some speculation or dk they try to poach JT Barrett back from the Bears? Wild card options?

She's white and Russian so she gets to stay despite being indicted for illegally taking money for her "business".
