Approaching retirement but still feel like a teenager, except for the aches and pains everywhere, all the time! Love photography, reading, writing and Manchester United; intrigued by US politics. Live in beautiful NZ. Views are my own.

I call Trump's Iran bombing "Operation Stormy Daniels."

It couldn't find the target, it didn't penetrate, and it prematurely exploded.

โ€˜Stupidest thing Iโ€™ve doneโ€™: All Blacks star avoids conviction after speeding 60kph over limit on motorbike As Caleb Clarke was announced to be playing in the latest All Blacks test series, he sat in court awaiting his fate.

If this guy was ... a teacher, builder, plumber, IT tech, journalist ... would he still have been discharged without conviction?
For context, in some quarters, rugby is almost a religion and is apparently New Zealand's national game.

I'm still confused about why every sports event in the US, and some in Canada, starts with the National Anthem.
Seems a little like mind control, or even propaganda.
(And some of the performers are really awful.)
PS: Where I'm from, the anthem is reserved for international fixtures.
