Wife and I had a hankering for Chinese food. We went to our favorite place in off hours. High ceilings, generously separated tables, guests seated proportionately. Luck of the draw had us just behind another couple. The woman had a persistent and nasty cough. Now the food can be spicy...

You are forgetting something. https://www.wsj.com/articles/covid-spurs-biggest-rise-in-life-insurance-payouts-in-a-century-11639045802 Seems however that I was too quick to post. Payouts are not nearly what they were in 1918 and have not yet triggered noticeable rises in the cost if policies.

Funny, thought I wrote that. Can't blame auto correct. Funny tho.

I believe that we take responsibility for our actions always. And no substance or situation will cause us to much stray from our true nature. I've taken pretty much every drug there is and have never considered harming another. I figure that is universal.

I've never been proud of any ability I might have to confuse. It is the chance to elucidate that encourages me to persist.

I got no Conrads, I don't even know what the hell they are. So who holds whom to their conrads again?

If I knew I might get less time in jail if I blamed a demon drug and my jury was as ill informed as I presumed they might be you can damn well bet I'd blame a pill. "The devil made me do it yer honor, it wasn't me I tell yah. " We got folks blaming donald trump for telling them to break into...

85 percent of u.s. wild fires are started by humans. But that really makes no difference unless you can stop them. Humans have been participating in wild fires since they discovered fire. That kinda makes them natural.

Um. Wut?

Ever think that your business was settled if precariously on a base of good government? Hmm? You have a sound dollar, predictable and reasonable legal system, a constant infrastructure and customers who are relatively unafraid of their society. This is spawned and perpetuated by government...

But in reality, those who toss a blanket of distrust and disgust over the entirety of "gubmint" are the ones that are playing directly into the hands of Republicans. "They are all bums and I'm not going to play along " is the very sentiment the right is seeking to evoke. Those who are now...

That is exactly how it works. But the richer errant women who are capable of getting a room somewhere in California next to a clinic might just have a problem upon returning home to Alabama after her little operation if her family, the attending physician, the airline and the Ramada in are...

For those with their heads and necks in the sand, sure, things in "the world" are just peachy. Things are already going pretty bad for any woman of child bearing years in the state of Texas. They were bad for anyone who couldn't fly to Mexico last winter and they were damn bad for the 800,000...

The solution, of course, is smaller government.

"Turn out in record numbers".. only to have their decision over ruled by a republican Cadre of election officials.

We seem to be ignoring the chaff and barriers left behind the Trump administration. The q folk have been asserting that 40,000 sealed enticements would be served for all those who ever turned against trump in the final days of trumps first reign. That didn't happen. Some of these posts seem...

I don't live in "reality" because I don't blindly agree with you ? All you are doing is repeating "small government" without offering any explanation. Our state department was all but disassembled during the Trump administration, his whitehouse staff was gutted top to bottom. That didn't...

I am going by the order I see them. Now what is so obviously unconsidered? I have offered you solutions or approaches, you have offered nothing as yet. You have enough time to formulate a belief that government is too big, based, one presumes, on news, stories, reports or observations that...

We agree but what about all those adult children who claim firearms are "just tools" while treating them as toys?

It takes big government because it is BIG business. There are no other powerful group entities but three, unions, government and business. "Reforming campaign finance and lobbying" is a portion of a fix but as I have said several times here, there is NO counter weight to business save...
