Yes.

Housing prices are out of control. Food, gas, insurance ... to high to hide it from the masses anymore. But commercial real estate (CRE) is the real bomb. Banks are truly swinging in the wind with their CRE loans. When those start defaulting ...

Dear New Zealand,

If they come for you, when they catch you, and hold you down, look calmly and steadily into their faces, one at at time, and say the following:

"Read my lips. Once you've poisoned me, I no longer have anything to lose. But you do. I make each of you this solemn promise. I am taking this moment to memorize your faces, memorize your names. The moment I get out of here, I promise I will use whatever time I have left to track down each and every one of you, and kill you. And your families. Choose your next move carefully."

You won't survive. But you might slow them reaching your loved ones ... and that might just be enough.

"You can always take one with you."

  • Sir Winston Churchill

She volunteered to be in a boxing match.

i thought that meant she is 'strong and independent'.

Does this mean she's not?

Multiple choice - choose one :

  1. She discovered multitudes of Chads were not waiting to drop at her feet like drops of rain falling from the sky.
  2. She ran out of money.
  3. 1 and 2.

We have seen this before. If you are going to step back into the grinder, at least contact an attorney to make sure you are protected when she changes her mind again. While I admire your optimism, in today's culture, once she turns down that road there is no turning back. Tommorrow, next month, next year, five years from now, you will be back. Statistics tell the tale.

I do wish you luck though.

The politicians figured it out in the early 50's. It was called Mutual Assured Destruction. (MAD) The nuclear age ensured world wars became a thing of the past. If a war went that big, literally everyone would lose. So for the last 70+ years, it's just been one brush fire after another.

This is no different. Tech changes. We develop something new and shiny, they develop something new and shiny. Stealth bombers vs hypersonic missiles is just the lastest bling in the last 20 years. Are phasers, antimatter power, and lightspeed drive systems really that far-fetched?

As for unlimited power, I say, bring it on. Cold fusion? Replicators? Electronic tranports? Sign me up. You're always going to have some batshit insane dictator at one time or another. People will either learn to talk again, or we'll become an archeological curiousity in an alien college class on failed civilizations.

I don't know what will happen. But I am absolutely certain on two things:

  1. This isn't the country I grew up in anymore.
  2. I'm near the end of my lifespan. I just don't care what you do now.

Peace through strength, or perish. Your choice.

Good luck men.

will receive $2,245,480 divided into monthly payments for the next 20 years as well as an immediate one-time payment of $154,520 as “compensation for back wages and medical benefits since [his] dismissal,” according to the July 10 settlement agreement.

As long as it includes an annual inflation adjustment true-up, (using the 1980 formula), AND continued payments/credits into the college's retirement system, I don't see a problem with this.

Of course he's fed.

They're not going to jail one of their own. Just look at ray epps. They'll plant a few benign articles in the paper for a few days, until something else shiny comes along to distract the masses.

Welcome to the party.

If people are supposedly paying by credit card, isn't that 'credit card fraud'?

  • Isn't 'credit card fraud' a state felony?

If someone received a credit card statement via the US Postal Service, with knowingly fraudulent charges in it, isn't that 'mail fraud'?

  • Isn't 'mail fraud' a state felony?

I wonder what happens if someone initiates a 'chargeback' on the 'fraudulent' credit card charges ...

Wait - are you suggesting she didn't fully appreciate her cultural exchange with the 'newcomers'?

O'Biden's not dead until just after 'Dr' Jill signs Hunter's pardon.

Not demanding toxicology testing to find out what really killed him is the price she extracted from the deep-state to not challenge the pardon ...
