If anything deadlier than Covid hits these shores, we're screwed.
Covid was a test. We failed the test and haven't studied for the following mid-term.
I can only hope the next bug concentrates in "gated communities".

I'm sorry, but I just do not see a situation in which teachers hiding information about someone else's minor child comes out well for teachers. If, after talking to the kid, the kid is seen as being put into harm's way by notifying the parents, the parents need to be put on notice that if anything happens to the kid, they're Suspect #1. Districts can act to protect the kids, but hiding info from parents puts educators in a horrid position.

Kentucky Sen. Mitch McConnell, the former GOP leader, called the settlement "utterly stupid, morally wrong."

"The nation's top law enforcement official is asking for a slush fund to pay people who assault cops?" McConnell said in a statement afterward.

Regular hit $5.79 at the casino, around $6 in town. Diesel's over $7. About 2 hrs north of SF.
So much winning.

That piece of paper gets tossed in the trash with the next administration.

If you're dumb enough to buy one, you're dumb enough to drive it into a lake.

"Leadership" will screw it up.

My undergrad Human Anatomy lab had cadavers to dissect and, as we unzipped the bags first day to meet our subjects, one of the cadavers had the old style springy rod implants in place and the tape holding the member down gave as the bag opened. SPROING!!
The shriek from the female members of that lab team, well, ya just had to be there.

OK, hate to say it, but it makes sense.
The new generation of MarineOne copters are larger, more powerful and burning the WH lawn.
Not that this excuses the many other tasteless renovations he's made to the grounds.

Mark my word, if and when these preachers get control of the [Republican] party, and they're sure trying to do so, it's going to be a terrible damn problem. Frankly, these people frighten me. Politics and governing demand compromise. But these Christians believe they are acting in the name of God, so they can't and won't compromise. I know, I've tried to deal with them.

Having said that, that San Antonio/OKC series is must-see TV.

That's a "not for the squeamish" procedure.
And the consequences if an infection happens post-op can be pretty horrible.
All that said, this guy doesn't have squat for a Public Health background.

Best money Putin could have spent. Accomplished most of the old USSR's long term goals without firing a shot.

And how many of them will have rubber arms by age 22 as a result?

For years I used to eat a cheeseburger and fries once a month... just to prove I wasn't being too rigid, lol.

I hope you washed it down with a malt. My local burger stand does a good 'un. They're getting hard to find.

Sparks.
My Jr year in High School('73-ish), a DJ from the local hip radio station did a presentation on the Future Of Rock and Roll, or some such pretentious crap.
What I came away from it with was his declaration that Sparks was going to become the biggest thing since the Beatles. He was serious as a heart attack. How, in his bent brain, he thought Ron Mael was ever going to become popular, is way beyond me.
They, Ron and brother Russell(vocals) have, however, created a unique body of work over the last 50+ years.

How much of that disappeared into Iraq and Afghanistan, courtesy of Shrub/Cheney?

They're against processed, salty, fatty, sweetened stuff.
I'm against denying myself things I love to eat. In moderation.

What?!? Jailing 85 year old French grannies isn't helping Tourism? Shocking.

I gave up on the "major networks" when I dumped Hulu last year and I can't say I've missed them.
I catch Colbert and Kimmel clips on You Tube. The rest of their programming is crap. I gave up on Sports with all the reviews and other delays. It's all about keeping the gamblers and fantasy sports crowd happy. Can't have those folks losing big bucks on a blown call. College sports has been ruined by the same stuff, plus all the transfers and NIL stuff.
There are other ways to be informed without all the corporate bs baggage.

Married women lean republican 50% to 45%

Meanwhile, never married women lean dem 72% to 24%. It's right there in the data.

Too bad Hillary didn't get the memo. More likely she just ignored it.

There is a large segment of the population, largely GOP, that will not be satisfied until only white male property owners are considered fully human beings.
