    I work with a black guy who was doing fine in college with his professor until the prof found out he was married to a white women. Things went down hill after that.

    Not sure what "doing fine in college with his professor" means.

    Was he doing fine in class, then the professor found out he was married to a white women so he/she started grading him without giving him special consideration because of his color? Or that he was sleeping with her, then she got upset because she found out he was married and that caused their relationship to go downhill? You see how this could be confusing don't you?

    You can watch on TV and listen on the radio at the same time?

    Too much of a time delay on TV. Already know how the play ended several seconds before you see it.

    How do people listen to football on the radio?  If I can't watch it, I ain't listening to it.

    What's funny is when the announcer says one of the teams is moving from left to right. Strangely it somehow helps me picture the play,

    Tell you brother to put some pictures in the gallery on his website. It is odd that the article’s writer chose to include pictures of the outsides of the restaurants rather than of the pizzas. I wanted to see Craft’s so I went to their site, but there are no pictures there either. Or at least none accessible by my iOS phone. Seems like a pretty big oversight. 

    There's a few inside pictures on the Facebook page but not many. Needs to be updated. His world wide website is totally outdated, probably doesn't even realize he still has it. I'll mention it to him. Sorry about that!

    Most people are.  that's the point I was making.  The problem is you're being caught in the everything has to be this or that crowd.  If it's not from Fox, then it's from some equally bad liberal sources.  If like he said, it's 10-1 liberal MSM, then that's at least more choice.  It's funny my analysis of MSM makes you think I'm being biased.  They have you right on the hook, where they like you.  

    It would be hypocritical of me to disagree with this. Recently watched a 2008 HBO mini-series about John Adams. There is a scene from the first Continental Congress where Tom Wilkinson, portraying Ben Franklin, shouts that there is no room for anyone at this congress who isn't willing to compromise. George Washington warned against the party system in his farewell address: "Let me now take a more comprehensive view, and warn you in the most solemn manner against the baneful effects of the spirit of party generally...The alternate domination of one faction over another, sharpened by the spirit of revenge...is itself a frightful despotism..."

    Biden has a TON to run on and you know it. That’s why @BillsFanNC and the rest of the cult is politicking in the gutter - you freaks have NOTHING else to run on.

     

    So, what will this guy run on?

     

    This?

    Or this:

     

    giphy.gif?cid=2154d3d7p4z4hiv3s4j1nf07o4
     

    What about this?

     

    giphy.gif?cid=2154d3d78a432a77185df3700d

     

    I’m sure this is a winning message:

     

    giphy.gif?cid=2154d3d78a432a77185df3700d

     

     

     

    So I say that Biden's best strategy is to keep hammering Trump's behavior. Then you tell me how Biden has plenty of positives to run on, then go on to point out what a dirt bag Trump is rather than tell me all the good things Biden has done? And you think you're not making my point for me? How does that even make sense?

    You should know what it means but once you know then you're correct in that you shouldn't care.

    And you absolutely shouldn't ever use their language.  If someone ever refers to you as cis-gender then your response should be to tell them to ***** off.

    If you haven't changed your biological sex, which sane people know is impossible anyway, then you're cis.  If you're under the illusion that you've changed your biological sex, then you're trans.

     

    Thanks for the explanation. Now I know. An you're correct, I still don't care.

  7. The problem lies in your first sentence, Let's go back in time. Seems that's all that many on the left want to do, talk about how many bad things Trump did years ago. A good friend of mine says that to win in November Biden should just keep harping on Jan. 6th, 2021. I don't disagree with the strategy as there isn't much else he has to run on. From the botched Afghanistan withdrawal to mispronouncing Laken Riley's name, then apologizing for referring to her murderer as illegal rather than undocumented, from the mess at the border to inflation, things haven't gone well for Joe. So just keep hammering home the fact that politicians lie, we'll see how that works out.

    "I could care less."  If you could care less, that means that you do care.  

    The correct phrase is "I couldn't care less".

    Absolutely.

    And don't get me started on "very unique." If something is unique it is by definition one of a kind, it does not require an intensifier!

    the issue in testing thro-ring and temp limits.

    la parallel is the 2008 crash.  The financial models had constraints thst were ignored when the syste, stepped outside the parameter limits

    Not quite sure what you're trying to say, maybe you wrote this from your phone. Think it has something to do with testing of the O-ring failures. What I got from the article I read, and there were a couple graphs I didn't totally understand, was that temperature was never a characteristic that was factored in. Therefore, the common theme of the failures that were addressed were not the actual root cause of the them. So that when the engineers said that temperature might be a problem, management said we've already addressed the failure issues.

    After the Challenger disaster, NASA implemented a policy of coming forward with any concerns, no such thing as a dumb question or too small of a detail (because something like a faulty O-ring was the cause of the explosion), safety of the program is paramount.
     

    How quick the human race is to forget. We learn nothing.

    Not so much that the O-ring itself was faulty as it was never designed to function at the temperature at launch. Several engineers noted the problem, the concerns were dismissed by NASA management.

    THE AUTOMOBILE, far & away had the biggest impact of all time!

    It was a global phenominon (sorry for the spelling) that's still going on today. It impacted on our society on many, many, fronts.

    It impacted on the steel industry, the oil industry, commercial farming as well as private farming, road construction, the hotel

    and motel busineses, tourism, even the fast food business. The list goes on and on, longer than I have the time to post on this

    topic.  That machine provided millions and millions of jobs for a lot of people.

     

    And yet, but for the wheel it would be useless.

    I assume you wrote this only to get some response from Irv, but the underlying statistics are wrong. According to whirlpool, in 1986 25% of the US households owned a microwave; in 1997, the number had more than tripled to 90%. The divorce rate actually sank slightly from 1986 to 1997.  

    I suspect the decline in the divorce rate had more to do with average age of marriage going up. Because why bother getting married if you're going to get a microwaved dinner...
