  1. Past hour
  2. It's hard to believe a Cleveland Brown was in jail? This could be fake news...
  3. The Following Message Is for Donald J. Trump, President of the United States https://flip.it/Gh8fx7
  4. Cataract surgery is amazing. I had mine 2 years ago and it has been great. Night driving is 1000% better and seeing the golf ball is wonderful. I get to be the "sighter" in our golf group as some of the guys have not yet had their cataract surgery. I have a 50 year college Homecoming event this fall and am looking forward to that.
  5. Saw Sir Paul at Pepsi Arena in Albany years ago. #1, or top 2 favorite shows between him and Billy Joel. Had fun visiting London, and Liverpool last year on a tour through UK, - enjoyed seeing Cavern Club, Penny Lane, Strawberry Field, and Sir Paul's boyhood home. Probably saw it when it first came out but good one on YouTube watching Carpool Karaoke with Paul McCartney, they show it there, too.
  6. Josh doesn’t have it this week. Back to back 82s, too many doubles (which are -2 points each), and only two birdies. With a decent round today he should get into the top 30 but I’m sure he’s disappointed. The “Josh spends too much time on golf and not enough on football” crowd should be happy. Barkley cracks me up…played probably the best round of his life on Friday and then reverted to the mean yesterday…a 25 point swing in scoring! It’s a fun tournament, and some of these guys are really good, but the most fun is seeing professional athletes in different sports make fools of themselves trying to play this game.
  7. Quick caution on the "follow your kids" motto...We were looking to move to be closer to our son, and his newlywed bride. They ended up taking new jobs 2 hours from there, so good thing we didn't make the move (yet). We will look into it again, if/when we're blessed for grandkids to come into play, and looking forward to it. As for snowbird locations, more and more are considering AZ area, and after seeing Sedona and other areas, i can see why.
  8. Today
  9. I did not realize Ms Diestler had that kind of power to manipulate the vote, perhaps you would like to explain it- I will also point out that Homeboy didn't even defend it because it is such an obvious lie.
  10. When it opens people are gonna talk/complain about how steep it is......most people dont go to other stadiums and all the new ones are steep like this. You can see it in some of the mages/movies. A few people will need one less beer, LOL
  11. Im sure the Chiefs are on the phone trying to acquire him as we speak.
  12. What are some of your favorite things about Mamdani and his platform? Do you expect him to be a successful mayor?
  13. The idiots that politicized Laken Riley are lecturing.
  14. His name sounds like a made up madden name. In fact, I'm pretty sure I've seen it years ago.
  15. Del Boca Vista, Phase Two!
  16. The politics of fear, anger, and false outrage never fail.
  17. I actually know a little bit about cricket--got into it due to a cousin who played--and can corroborate that Gunner is, indeed, talking sense. Meantime, I was thinking about Josh Allen and how special he is. I've never met him, but by all accounts including @Alphadawg7's, he seems to be one of those rare people who have the inner generosity and strength to be a real role model--not just someone whose accomplishments you admire, but someone who conducts themselves with real character. And yet, he's funny and not saintly or boring! We are really lucky to have the guy.
  18. I used real world examples that represent progressive policies in our nation. Not curves or textbooks. You think neoliberal/republican policies are a big function of urban unaffordability, which is true. Im not denying it. Thats different then needing to go farther left with progressive policies to alleviate some of these problems in mythical ways. Is San Fransico more progressive then NY city? I think so. Are there any results showing this is making a difference. Lets google. *Housing costs are 161% higher than the national average. *Utilities are 58% higher than the national average. *Transportation costs (including gas and public transit) are 43% higher than the national average. *Grocery prices are 21% higher than the national average. Urban affordability. So when will we see the results at least tip in the other direction or is the area just neoprogressive and needs MORE left policies on top of the ones they have? Are we just adding a sidestep of human waste everyday and buying a car window once a month? " I take umbrage with the notion that “free money” and “closing down businesses” were distinctly progressive policies at that time." states were given their own choice of how to handle the pandemic and to suggest the progressive response was anything other then to advocate exactly what happened in democrat cities for years is disingenuous. Id suggest the effects would have been greater and more prolonged if progressives had their way. Thats what i see in progressives, a policy action and then no accountability on the effects. I wonder how long until small bodegas and corner stores are closed down around these gov controlled ones. Labled "for profit markets" and then get a rinse and repeat of the other damages done to examples i made in my last post. Next is the demand for more gov stores because there arent enough around for the urban people to go to. Just 5 more stores. This problem predates and is not specific to progressive policy coming soon. "It was conventional epidemiological wisdom to shut down NYC" Yeah i was in the covid thread trying to have common sense discussions on what others saw as conventional wisdom from EXPERTS. Read some of them and the date they were written and then check out how long after dems and progressives alike were calling for extending lockdowns. Checkpoints for vax passposts erected kay! The epidemiological wisdom became the main factor in why all families including urban expenses became unaffordable to this day. The rest of us were busy killing grandmas. Consumer demand would have been normalised if real wisdom would have been the reaction. Instead it was funneled to huge corporations while progressives neos alike where chearing for the cops closing (radical) mom and pop shops in cities across the country and demanding more stimulus after catching their leaders break every new covid rule and forgiving them. I didnt even touch progressive views and measures on mass immigration that are now mainstream "neoliberal" that effect every point you say. Unless somewhere in a textbook millions of extra people fighting over limited resources lowers prices. Thats great that you got a chuckle for how capitalist have to "navigate" paid/family time. Guess how they do it. The same way they do everything. Pass the brunt of it on to everyone else or close shop. By close shop i mean open it where they dont have to navigate aggressively and stay rich. Be that in a new state or nation. People who dont abuse it are subject to carry the workload. Joe just used pfl for his wifes "anxiety" problem again. We need you to do another double tonight or we wont make quota. We dont make quota enough times we are moving the company. We move the company and progressives fight for gov to "support" the newly unemployed. A cycle that starts with a well intentioned progressive mandate that they give little care if abused. Then we talk about urban affordability in the area with no employment prospects. Im not for capitalist profits and low taxes at all but taxing them alot more or abuse of something like pfl has one of those trickle down effects that you speak of like reaganomics. Its not as easy a solution as its suggested repeatedly for a quick fix. Then demand more to address new problems created. On and on. I agree with this but I see the far lefts novel ambitious ideas. This thread has them. I live in NY. I named some of them. Im not seeing them resulting in much more then alot more empowerment to the largest corporation in the world. which is still ironic. Why dont progressives fund the things they claim to fight for? Give a couple bucks to bus fair united for free bus rides? Give a couple more to urban families so they have affordability. Keep giving it all away to all the great things politicians promise will be tax funded and we will fund whatever we want to. Cut out the US corpratist middlemen who squander it on corruption. is worker cooperation progression? Why doesnt someone run on that? You choose off a list of where YOUR taxes go every year and see what gets funded and what dries up in the country. Want to throw in more? Go ahead, there will be no need to go into weeds on a football message board ever again.
  19. Performative outrage with moral bankruptcy
  20. Hoping they were looking across the field, so that was the visitor's side in the sun. Can anyone confirm? (Couldn't hear audio so unsure if that is mentioned in any "narration.")
  21. Alligator Auschwitz - $150,000 taxpayer dollars per detainee, per year SNAP benefits - $2,256 per citizen, per year Keep reining in that spending!
