I faintly remember the film and wondering at the time, as I am a nurse, how he could possibly have assuaged his conscience, or fooled actual doctors as pretended his medical role. That he scammed us by making up scams that’s funny. And, —not dangerous to sick kids. I like that.

If only they were merely playing. Then someone could call out “olly olly in free”…

Directing others to commit murder on the high seas must be a result of the “ I could shoot somebody on fifth Avenue and I wouldn’t lose a vote” philosophy, extended by the Supreme Court to cover crimes done while the president.

What is the origin of or the underlying meaning of “ indict a ham sandwich”? A sandwich cannot be culpable. It seems possible that the phrase began life somewhat longer as, — would indict a dog for stealing a sandwich, or something similar. But as it stands, the meaning eludes me.

You and my cat?

I stand corrected. I had not previously been aware of such a useful tool as the - full body Freudian MRI.

The absence of a heart in what appears to be your report on a brain MRI, is to not probative. More interesting would be to know if a thoracic CT indicated a small heart with all four chambers gilded like the redone White House.

On further reflection, I think the logic circuits in his brain are set up to be self exculpatory, or to generate fervent lies at a rate that would give Twain’s Tom Sawyer a lesson in inventiveness. He himself, might not know which. He just experiences indignant confidence even as his story changes.

Yes. A splendid example of why cats and dogs go well together.

That is rough. I used to live in a small town though within the populous state of New York. The poll workers smiled in amusement or contempt when I came in. they had to get out the almost empty Democratic party registration book for me to sign in on. Every vote matters, I would tell myself.

Yes. The purchase of power and the resale of it, he excels at it. The super wealthy are only too happy to invest in him for the excellent returns they get. Then there’s Clarence Thomas who appears to have been years ahead in this area.

Yes and yes to all your examples. Also Secure borders. Without denying the societal mess of ICE raids and related social brutality, we live in high safety without foreign threat or attack. Unlike say, Ukraine. Taxes provide that too.

Vote.

To the extent he thinks that, it is because that is what he is experiencing. The Supreme Court gave him a ticket to ride and he is using it.

One needs to have enough hair that it doesn’t just stand up in shock at the craftily specious words leaving the press secretary‘s mouth, and able to sway according to circumstance.

Going after the trivialities here, “SecDef”, so much cooler a nickname than “SecWar”, which when you say it aloud sounds like a grammatical construction I didn’t understand in third grade. For that alone, we should refuse to use it.

Sufficient unto the day. Why hold out for perfection of motivation? Fear of God or love of God; for this, either will do. We just need to stop killing at sea, —which is yet another device to distract from the Epstein files.

Prosecuted? Or did you mean that they should in fact endure persecution as a turnabout for what they have already done to others?

The worst part is the murder of people. The humans whose names and faces neither you or I know. The second worst is the disgrace to our military, and to our country as a whole for acting like hoodlums. Murderous hoodlums.

That’s a delightfully succinct, yet ground covering premise for a failure-to-fly movie proposal.

👍

He might. Taking one for dear leader might be part of his sense of manliness. Or he could just be threatened into it.

If Hegseth gets pushed down the illegal/criminal orders staircase, does that qualify as taking a fall for Trump?

I too was struck by the absence of Freshetta and further startled by their praise of diGiorno, which I think of as the poster child for cardboard flavored crust. Maybe it has improved in the many years since I last tasted it?
Or the review is a spoof ghostwritten by Jon Stewart for Pizza Rat?

Thanks. Fortunately, it’s about what I expected. A retronym for one of the chief tools of post WWII domesticity, whose renaming was necessitated by the development of blenders and hand-held mixers. My grandma loved hers and its multitude of attachments.

In that case, which side of the argument would you take? pizza is cheap but transient? or mixer, bulky, enduring, but below the threshold of amortization?

Ah. 🥰Stand mixer is the same as or very near to the ancient mid-centjry Mix Master. For the volume of dough involved in a pizza, a wooden spoon followed by hand kneading , easy, effective, and potentially quite entertaining if you add a helping child to the making process. Or buy already made.

I who used to make bread a lot and always kneaded dough with my hands, have now been wondering for two days what is a stand mixer?

I didn’t vote for Ronald Reagan either time. His approach the economy was prominent among the things he got wrong. He wasn’t completely wrong, but more wrong than right. And we’re still paying for it.

Excellent. Whilst immediately appreciating the potential of this breakthrough, the demonic portion of my brain within seconds further imagined transdermal insulin as a plot point in a spy v. spy murder. Sticking with the humorous, imagine it as an episode of “Get Smart” or “Man from U.N.C.L.E.
