Ow, yeah grease burns hurt.

We can't ban Americans. The stats tell one story when you limit it to the last 10 years and would tell a different one if you did 30 years, but then again 9/11 was a LONG time ago now.

Conservatives are wildly successful at pumping the breaks, but it is unusual to get the truck in reverse. The slope isn't as slippery as it seems sometimes. Gay marriage has a pretty strong legal underpinning. It is very difficult to demonstrate who is damaged by it. As much as people...

I already knew it was a single person when you said he could import a European car every few years.

It is mostly the same Supreme Court and the conservatives were the most against it. All 9 were against it.

So apparently there is a never-before-used Presidential power to force the Senate into recess. There is talk now that Trump might use that if the Senate doesn't agree to his nominees. That will surely not fly with the Supreme Court. It was the conservatives that ruled in 2014 that only the...

Sounds good, I'll try it. I didn't realize they had a website.

I don't know that Ultra Magnus13 was pretending it was fair. He was working with the wrong numbers, but his conclusion wasn't backwards. The minimum wage guy is going to need to spend $21,623.64 at the store to spend his income tax savings and he's not going to have that much money...

For some years my goto news site has been cnn.com. I have no idea how much ad revenue they got from me stopping in twice a day and clicking maybe a dozen articles. Probably not a whole bunch. For a year or so I've been occasionally hitting a daily limit on how many articles I can read for...

More complicated than that. It was: Standard Deduct $4500 0-12500 - 1.85% 12500-50K - 3.5% 50K and up - 4.25% No Standard Deduct $12500 Flat 3% Flat tax always favors the rich. And so does sales tax. Raising the standard deductible favors the poor. So at a few easy income levels, we can do...

it is brain-tickling to think about how Tuvok infiltrated the Maquis and that wasn't obvious to them because they thought what they were doing was logical.

I don't think that is causal. I think they are both because of another reason. It's a big bankable success. Now. Not 20 years ago.

The mileage varies. In my situation, I hired into the refinery as a laborer and worked with other laborers doing whatever fairly lower skill work was needed. Some of the guys intended to be laborers permanently. You can stay that way, but all the employees for all the represented jobs started...

I worked in a workplace for a while where I was the only person who went to college. They actually firmly believe college is mostly a fraud. Kids that don't have any common sense go to college and get themselves a job at a desk doing something boring and questionable while real men go do work.

It is such a strange experience to have the message board complaining that this movie is a lazy shot for shot remake and have Facebook having a fit that they made Astrid black. So anyway...they've changed some shots. It just isn't historically accurate for dragon-riding Vikings with Scottish...

Is RFK Jr a DNC sleeper agent? He says he will work to get fluoride taken out of drinking water because it is lowering IQ. No federal body does anything other than advise on this issue, so it isn't likely that he will have any effect, but if he does and IQ starts going up, won't that damage...

You don't have to send him to prison. Fine him.

Early stuff for Cowboy Bebop emphasized shot for shot stuff, but the show wound up with its own feet. We don't know anything from this.

They are all unnecessary by almost any measure, and largely wasteful. Part of the draw for producers, I think, is that THEY didn't get to make it last time.
