Still not 'duly elected' Arizona Governor -- Kari Lake, TFG Endorsee
Hi Meghan, As mothers, (both with two kiddos) I’m know we both agree that our children’s future is too important to let it slip away over past grudges or hurt feelings. That’s why I’m working hard to unite Republicans, Independents, Democrats — ALL Americans. We are facing huge challenges and it’s ...

Art: I know it when I see it.
Indeed, but inexplicable to me that so many would prefer to watch it by staring at their phone.

What's your ancestry and other genealogy stuff
I’ve been researching my ancestry here in the UK for forty years. In the main we were a simple, unremarkable family, with roots in Berkshire, southern England. For all that, it has been fascinating though. The most interesting ancestor was someone whose occupation on a census was given as ‘Bookbinde...

Derek Chauvin trial: The murder of George Floyd
I have nothing for Chauvin but prisoners should be safe. George Floyd should have been able to go out without fear of violence, too. Not arguing that, but violence in prison is a disgrace. Agreed. Equally disgraceful are the sly, nudge nudge, wink wink comments approving of sexual assault that one ...

This woman was in a grocery store and decided it was her business to question why a man had a dog in the store. He told her this is my service dog. She demanded to see proof and made a huge deal and apparently the dog did something she didn't like, she says it jumped on her. So, she kicked the disa...

Marjorie Taylor Greene [R - Deliverance Country]
British PM John Major used to call the opposition "the right honourable Member." The insult was implied and understood. I think people should start using that phrase to refer to her. Even better, the press should freaking ignore her. Once again, being stupid has gotten her to where she is...

I know little about law in my country, let alone yours, but I am astonished that this gentleman is allowed to launch all these doomed actions. He must waste thousands of hours of the courts’ time, let alone his own. Why does he do it? Is it a question of thinking that one day, if he throws enough, s...

George Santos (R-NY) and his imaginative (but dishonest) résumé
"we" doesn't sound third-person to me. It sounds like he is speaking of himself and staff collectively. Now some politicians in the past have distinctly used third-person speak. i.e. Bob Dole talking about Bob Dole. :biggrin: And on this side of the pond, Margaret Thatcher was ridiculed w...

I belong to what appears to be a rapidly shrinking group that thinks all tattoos are hideous. I simply can’t think why anyone would want to disfigure themselves in that way.

Re: American Peoples Convoy Protest
This has been a great thread, and it has been fantastic entertainment. Thanks to those who provide the updates. But I really think that the ‘movement’ and its equally demented counter protesters, have now shrunk into a tiny dot of irrevelance, and it’s time we left them to it.

Re: Bill_G, retired, affluence of effluent, and errata
Running a spreadsheet has been a big part of my financial planning over the years since I retired. I receive my pensions (both private and state) monthly. But I have quite a few bills that come in every three or six months, and one large one annually. This means every now and then I would have a ver...

I’m 74. Things have started happening. I get out of the shower, start to get dressed, and find I’ve forgotten to dry off part of me. I go into another room for something, then forget what it was I went there for. I go to put on my trousers (pants for you people in the colonies), left leg goes in, ri...
