This discussion is fun! I feel like a lay onlooker at The Anatomy Lesson of Dr. Nicolaes Tulp (by Rembrandt): https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/4d/Rembrandt_-_The_Anatomy_Lesson_of_Dr_Nicolaes_Tulp.jpg/1280px-Rembrandt_-_The_Anatomy_Lesson_of_Dr_Nicolaes_Tulp.jpg I wonder if Jud...

Compare it to other social media platforms and their value per MAU and it’s “not hard to imagine shares being worth well below $1.”

Damn typos! Surely the author mistyped $ for ¢?

Definitely better-looking than the cybertruck. That thing...yikes. :roll: :think: How important is the pick-up truck and similar market outside North America? It's certainly not a big sector in Europe outside the actual practical use by tradesmen, farmers, etc. Too big and expensive to run on small...

So. I’m trapped in no-man’s-land. I’m in the Delhi airport. I can’t leave the airport because I don’t have a visa. I can’t enter the main terminal because I don’t have a boarding pass. I can’t get a boarding pass until the United ticket agent shows up at five pm! It’s now 10:13 am, and I’ve been he...

Terri Kanefield has posted her take on the coming trial: https://terikanefield.com/sex-lies-and-falsified-documents/ Kanefield is a sober and reliable commentator on criminal law issues, as well as litigation generally.

bob, I love you, :lovestruck: I love your expertise, :lovestruck: I love your generosity in sharing that expertise, :lovestruck: but sometimes :( I wish that expertise wasn't continually deployed in delivering disappointment, dashing hopes, squashing fallacies and dismantling faulty reasoning! But b...

Wouldn't an equitable and practical solution be to suggest that the insurance company put appropriate funds into the court's escrow account? If the company does that, fine. If not, either unwilling or unable, then they were acting in bad faith. I appreciate that that is effectively skipping the whol...

"Waahh!! I've done so many crimes it's really difficult to fit in all the court appearances!"

Hmm. Not convinced that gripe draws buckets of sympathy from the well of human kindness.

If you can't do the court time, don't do the white collar crime.

My KJV is a beautifully written work of art. Indeed it has some majestic and sonorous prose, which I believe was a stated aim of the translation project. But it influenced my family for countless generations, mostly (I think) for the better. My father's faith is undeniably strong, and he uses it on...

Excuse my ignorance and failing memory: when the tweets above say … the DC National Guard were ready to deploy on J6 following Trump's orders are they referring to actual orders or to imagined orders? And were those iimagined/actual orders to promote the insurrection by preventing the electoral coll...

We have to remember that the Bible was written by people so primitive, they didn't even have toilet paper. We just know a lot more about the Earth and the Universe than those folks did. But the big chap revised the patchy and pedestrian first edition of My Big Holey Book about 2000 years ago and lo...

The court could employ Trump's expertise in infectious disease management as demonstrated in 2020. Sit him down, give him a handful of ivermectin worming tablets and a cup of bleach, followed by an ultraviolet lamp down the throat. Off we go! "Now Mr. Trump, are you ready to proceed?" &quo...

If he tries that [claiming covid contact] remand him in custody until he tests negative while appearing each day via video. :) Oh gosh, Dave, you poor thing, you need more evil in your soul! Have you not seen The Silence Of The Lambs ? Some simple adjustments to the courtroom would keep everybody s...

Indeed! The adage "a fool and his money are soon parted" is almost a guiding principle for the Trump's brigade of clueless clowns. I sometimes feel sympathy for victims of sophistcated scams targeting people's weak points, even when they should know better, but when nasty-minded folk greed...

I like the way Judge Merchan politely points out that it stinks for Trump to complain about publicity when he enthusiastically generated much of it himself, often immediately outside the courthouse.

Thanks Andy. I'd forgotten about the Rodney King assault being around the same time. I can't remember a slogan used by anti-apartheid campaigners protesting against international competitions involving whites-only South Africa teams around the 1980s. It was something like "no fair sport in an u...

He's got COVID-19 again. They're treating him in the skilled nursing facility, not taking him to the hospital ... yet. He's unable to feed himself or talk on the phone. I'm afraid he won't last long, but he has told us he's ready to go. There's absolutely nothing I can do to help him. Nothing. I fe...

We may not be worthy … but unlike $DJT stock we'll never be worthless!

Thanks for that p0rtia. Did you read his book, the one called How I Didn't Do It , or something like that? My impression from afar was always that Simpson was the killer. Recent revelations support that too, circumstantially at least. I wonder how I'd have felt though as a juror from an oppressed se...

Mm… now I fancy a turkey sandwich! Does Miki have that effect on everybody?

On Roodles' living situation... Why doesn't Donald let Rudy live at Berghof-A-Lago? Seems perfect, Rudy can bunk in with Donald and Melania can stay in NYC. Probably a TV studio in Berghof-A-Lago too also. :think: Why not Bedminster, closer to his spiritual home (no, not the one where his favorite ...

Hey! She's a pro-life Republican! How dare you suggest that she take an active interest in the welfare of her offspring after they have left her womb?

I didn't follow the evidence, just saw some of the international coverage of the trial. What struck me most was hearing that ordinary people's views on Simpson's guilt or innocence split on racial lines. I thought that was immensely depressing. Of course people's views on police and the fairness of ...
