Incidently, Tommy Lee Jones actually played the roommate in the movie as well.

He was a star football player at Harvard.

Clown,

I believe the following is factual.

The movie Love Story was from a book by Erich Segal of the same name and was based on people he knew.

Segal was a professor at Harvard where he was met Al Gore and Tommy Lee Jones who were roommates.

He based the story of the father/son relationship on Al Gore and his father.

The roommate in the story was based on Tommy Lee Jones.

Bravo.....

I didn't catch it at first.

That was great...

Clown,

You're right.

It was stupid advice when it first was said in a movie.

Clown,

It was just as lame as another stupid idea from the entertainment industry most of who live in it can't keep a relationship together.

Donner posted another weird quote about relationships that came from the entertainment industry. I gringe when people quote songs or movies.

Donner,

Love means never having to say you're sorry.

Blue,

"you'll watch your freedom of speech disappear from this place real fast"

You can't lose what you don't have in the first place.

Morris,

I don't read anything with a paywall.

Plenty of free news.

Lamp,

Not only are you dumb, but you're a dishonest dumb.

You left the word "liberal" out of my quote completely changing the meaning.

And then have the gall to ask me to explain myself.

Pathetic.

Lamp,

"What, exactly has social media been doing the last several years?"

Don't play dumb.

It makes you look...well...dumb.

Sent,

"If she specifically directed it at Bezos, then this just dumb"

But did it look specifically directed at Bezos?

Didn't to me.

Any liberals who complain about Freedom of Speech should be honest with themselves about what liberal social media has been doing the last several years.

You just don't like it when the shoes on the other foot.

Donner,

This incident may even provide leads for the FBI to the whereabouts of sleeper cells.

Donner,

Of course I was speaking from their perspective why he would have easily got over the border no questions asked.

Maybe he was even transporting something in the truck.

Gal,

Actually not active duty (I think)..but a veteran.

Gal,

"Shamsud-Din Jabbar drove the rented pickup truck across the border into Texas"

He would probably be a good person to do it since he is a US citizen and in the military.

Zed,

You posted it would be good for people to start voting for "mental health".

From the ugly way your posts are written, sounds to me you should be signing up for anger management.

In any case, you should probably be on the FBI's short list.

"He is an American citizen who was born and raised in Beaumont, Texas"

Driving around with an ISIS flag on his truck.

Who radicalized him if he was just a regular American?

The truck came over the border a month ago.

I'd bet so did his cohorts.

Lamp,

"Now, how many times have the hosts on, say, OAN or Fox News, made such an admission?"

Or the regulars on this site?

Corky,

"Most are actually afraid to even read them."

You didn't really read my post.

Corky,

You know... there's something ironic about people in this world.

So many are obsessed with money just like the ones who live and breathe for it investing and growing rich.

Next time you're at a liberal think tank get together insulting half the country, take a moment.

Listen for the word "money."

That's the irony.

The love of money is everywhere whether or not you have much of it.

I got a chance to watch the film Hillbilly Elegy made from a book written by JD Vance about his life.

It was produced and directed by Ron Howard 4 years ago.

After seeing the movie where I didn't know much about him before. After seeing it I can see why Trump chose him.

Here's one interesting part in the movie. Ron Howard made the movie 4 years ago long before Vance was considered for the VP position.

The movie covers his childhood about as much as his adult life family and professional struggles coming from a Kentucky family being the first family member to go to college and Harvard at that.

One scene was him as a kid telling people to be quiet because he wanted to listen to Al Gore speak on TV.

I wonder how Howard feels that 4 years ago he had Vance watching Gore on TV and Vance ended up being the VP himself?

Laura,

"Me probably back in High School in the late 1980's"

I've talked about it in conversations here and there.

If you haven't discussed it since the 80's, sounds like all you care about is yourself.

Corky,

I said influence not governance.

Yes...the situation is dangerous.

Bell,

He gave away the Panama Canal and now China has a dangerous amount of influence of both ends.

Smart move...
