    That has nothing to do with the question. 

    Australia is cool but do not fly all the way down under and not also travel to New Zealand.  You’ll thank me if you heed this advice!  It’s about a 3 hour flight to Auckland from Sydney and not usually very expensive.

  2. I want nothing to do with any candidate sporting a D or R after their name.  Neither party leadership in this unholy and increasingly ineffective duopoly has any interest in anything beyond winning the next election and enriching themselves in the process.  Trump is dangerous and if given the chance evil.  Biden is a man of questionable judgement and has been long before his decline.  Yes, America would be better off with almost any other candidates.  That said, I have no illusion the candidates put forth in their stead would be anything more than status quo partisan hacks.

    If America is to reverse it’s decline it will only come about when we throw off the shackles of the Republican and Democratic duopoly.

  3. An incredibly brave man!  Dead at 47 for speaking the truth about Vladimir Putin and the Russian Oligarchs.

    Sadly, Navalny has no leadership equal among Americas political leadership.  I fully expect platitudes from our political leaders on the murder of Navalny but the growing tolerance of Putin and Russian aggression especially among the GOP leadership will be on full display.  The modern GOP puts all their energy towards and saves their greatest hatred and vitriol for their Democratic foes rather than for the true enemies of America and freedom.  Unfortunately, over the past 2 decades the GOP foreign policy has swung from the unthinking recklessness of the NeoCons to the immoral indifference of the MAGA crowd.

     

    This is what leadership looks and sounds like in the modern GOP….  Pathetic!

    Speaking at a rally Saturday in Conway, South Carolina, Trump recounted a story he has told before about an unidentified NATO member who confronted him over his threat not to defend members who fail to meet the trans-Atlantic alliance’s defense spending targets.

    But this time, Trump went further, saying had told the member that he would, in fact, “encourage” Russia to do as it wishes in that case

    I grew up in the country and can remember every time we went to town I’d beg my mom to stop at our little municipal park to play on the jungle gym.  She would always ask why when we have so many trees on the ranch to climb on.  I didn’t know it then but I think it was the fear factor of falling onto hard packed dirt or bars as I swung and climbed!  Ahh the good ole days………

    Obviously, Fisher sucks, but she’s all about ego and power, and if she doesn’t get her way, she wants to take her ball home. She’s acting just like Trump. The Goodman’s are corrupt pieces of shit. Boy do I have a story about Goodman’s son that wanted to build a storage facility behind my house around 2004 when daddy was mayor. 

    Why in the hell does Vegas have a mayor that’s almost 85????

    Well for phucksake, we are staring down the nose of a Biden v Trump rematch, so I don't see how much we can call out Vegas for that.

    Bill Clinton hasn’t been president in 26 years and he is still younger today than either Biden or Trump :(

    The MWC is quickly becoming a power conference in basketball and should be recognized as such.  We keep getting better year after year in the portal era.  We are really in the sweet spot.  We don't get the uber talent that often that is going to NIL out to the blue bloods, and we can offer NIL and larger opportunities to bring in transfers from 250 or so D1 teams ourselves.   

    Our teams are older, more mature and tough as shit.  

    I like what I am seeing during the regular season in recent years but until more than one MWC team advances past the first round of the NCAA tournament the conference depth, in terms of Power conference status is going to be questioned.  And rightfully so.

  7. As A vikings fan I loathe the Packers.  But watching Dallas getting their hearts ripped from their chests as they get dismantled brings a smile to my face.  Love the effort and execution of Jordan Love.
