  1. Morning Chef It’s honestly not that important to me but forgive me, I’m a problem solver by nature. It occurs to me that much of the ‘controversy’ is over something quite easily resolved with just a tiny bit of creativity. So….how about garriage? Would that be so terrible? A gay man would describe himself as being garried. That way there wouldn’t be the awkward question of “what’s your wife’s name”, to which he has to reply “it’s actually my husband” and the inevitable “Oh, I see”. My solution isn’t at all disrespectful or demeaning…just a more precise use of language and honestly chock full of pride.
  2. You obviously did. I’m guessing you also think that Philadelphia being known as the “City of Brotherly Love” is something that Ben Franklin came up with. The point is that language is there to be more specific not less so. Just because a mule and a horse and a donkey are all similar four legged animals we don’t call them all ponies. Mine is not a message of hate. It’s instead to say why not create/utilize a word that is more definitive of this particular type of adult relationship? The gay community generally looks to single itself out at seemingly every turn. And I honestly have no problem with that. In fact I appreciate their message of independence and identity. Why not on this topic too?
  3. This has literally nothing to do with religion. Many non religious men and women are married. Such as yourself. Not where I’m coming from at all. Nice try though Jim.
  4. With much respect...That's the wrong way to look at it. Civilization didn't invent language to make communication more complicated or less definitive. It's actually just the opposite. We use words to BETTER define things...not to make things more vague. I know you are not religious but the Greeks had multiple words for what we use universally as "love". In English, we have new words that enter our language all the time. Did you ever think you'd be saying someone "tweeted" out a response?
  5. Not at all. I don't mention it out of hate. That's not where I'm coming from. I actually think it's worse that gay men are forced to be labeled as a hyphenated form of marriage. So, not a real marriage, but a "gay-marriage". I think it's a shame.
  6. I have no idea what that means. Please reboot your meme machine.
  7. Sure...it's going to be great when every single word in the English language is properly hyphenated so as not to offend anyone. Yep....that'll be FANTASTIC. Because using two words to define something is just a lazy use of the English language.
  8. Looks to me like they are just vacuuming up anyone they can find in hopes that someone sticks. Not a bad strategy, but hardly stacking the roster.
  9. Or maybe, just maybe....they could come up with a different word for the union of a man and man....and the entire issue goes away. Just saying.
  10. You've once again mistaken your mirror for your laptop. 😉
  11. Two Hammers Guy? Was he in the Godfather? Or was it the Sopranos? Ya know.....Johnny Two Hammers.
  12. Let’s put Kamala on it. She’s bound to get on the root causes. You go girl!
  13. There’s a video of Jesus? Cool bro!
  14. And right there is your problem.
  15. The real problem is that the Bills would have to resort to some sort of rules gimmick just to move the defense off the line of scrimmage. How about we line up and blow them backward?
  16. Note to everyone: Jesus was not a hippie.
  17. Forced Birth? That’s the new one. What a crack up! 😂😂😂
  18. Ouch! The president isn’t going to speak out on behalf of people protesting an oppressive regime? Really? That’s the official White House position? Unbelievable!
  19. Very good list. Where would you put guys like Wilson, Stafford and Ryan…in the former group? Or not even on the list at all?
  20. And for this single minded focus, the world is going to stand idly by and watch while innocent people’s lives anre destroyed and others are killed on a daily basis. This is simply not civilized and has gone on long enough. What a total shame.
  21. There isn’t a chance in the world that he has a job. Not a chance!
  22. Not trying to start an argument but if the list changes from year to year then I’d say those other guys aren’t really Franchise QBs. I believe the very definition is that they transcend the year to year up and downs.
  23. Note that I didn’t say it would save you a ton of money. I said it worked like a charm. Your array is purposely sized to take off just the top two tiers of your power bill. Those are the higher rates where solar is competitive. But still …it makes a lot of sense for a house, where you’re not using that much power per sf. On a commercial building it’s almost impossible for solar to keep pace with demand.
  24. Which guys are your eight?
