"Hunter Biden enriched himself because his father is the president. How dare he? We will investigate this unprecedented and outrageous crime and bring him to heel."

Irony is lost...

Newsmax, maybe OAN. Fox is taboo. Sorry I'm so late in responding. I'm......irregular!

Then again, it could all be a setup for failure. That would be awkward. I don't particularly like the leaks and consider their occurrence beneath the importance of the case. It's really painful...

Kevin! Exactly.

How much do you think you'd want...or need....to be his lawyer for the moment and how does the contract read? It's a good thing he's got The Base to pay for it. He sure...

^David!

When the hell do we get some solid schadenfreude out of the fate of this miserable turd? This is the least of the charges that make any sense but maybe NY believes it has the goods...

I did a dumb thing and French polished an Indonesian monkey wood table. It was the worst finishing experience of my life but it was gorgeous for about three days. I was quite proud of the...

That's the most obvious physical thing to me. The difference between Moscow and Mariupol is clear. Although what a low res thing the Mariupol snapshot is and the chins are weird. Then again,...

I wish to explain to gypsie that beets can be boiled and roasted but whatever you do to them, you get a reminder the next day. They seem to pas more or less straight through. For some reason this...

I'm partial to a proper bagel, cream cheese, lox, maybe some capers and red onion. That gets it done.

Corn is of course grain, seeds and berries in general so pepper is corn thinking olde style and liberally allowing for variations. I think Jewish pastrami with its pepper crust is what to think of...

Joe! Well, there once was a Jewish Lord Mayor of Dublin. It was a celebrated item when he was elected. But I think most Jews with Irish surnames never actually set foot in Ireland. Legend has it...

It’s surprising how seriously my imaginary origin story can appear to some. People are just too cereal these days.I guess corned beef and cabbage should not be taken lightly. This is heavy duty fare!

You could say a Reuben is inspired by eastern European Jewish cuisine but I read you. It isn’t kosher but then neither am I.

Actually the traditional garnish is smetana, a richer and more natural version of cultured dairy resembling crème fresh more than American sour cream. Borscht is but a vehicle for the sour cream in...

From your replies I suspect my word play and feeble attempts at irony have failed. For the record, there is no known relationship between borscht and corned beef and cabbage except they are both...

Tonight, being St. Patrick's Day, our meal is the traditional one eaten by Jews of Irish descent or those like me with Irish surnames that were gifted to their progenitors when passing through Ellis...

Blech.

I think the commentator makes solid points regarding the IOC's posture as respects the participation of Russian athletes. The IOC never fails...

Oh dear. You miss understand! I have no illusions that I can stop a train wreck in progress, nor would I try. But I'm happy to heckle from the sidelines. As for respected analysts, have you viewed...

It's why I don't come here anymore. He and Vad take up a lot of space while expelling mostly miasma. When I want to hear how the non MSM explains the latest outrages can be justified I indulge in ...

Apparently your discomfort is not shared. In any case, Person of The Year isn't an alternative to a Nobel. It's awarded in consideration of ia person's impact and significance on the world stage....

Thanks good buddies. A relaxed and uneventful day was spent with family and friends. My sister, whom I last saw in Connecticut following the Mystic show flew in to be with us. I’m going to dust off...

Thanks guys (and ever reliable birthday lady, Ms. Spindrift). Things have been mostly uneventful these last months. My Achilles tendon repair is working out although they weren't kidding when they...

I can't escape the thought that American politics as they are today are more dangerous than anything the...

Jake Broe's been mentioned here before. He's a former USAF commissioned missileer turned You Tuber. Follow the link he mentions in the video (he links it below the vid) to see what sort of problems...

Her cycles have all been desperate attempts to remain relevant. She hasn’t mattered for years but here she is making news again. Practicing Hindu, will play huge here in the Bible Belt. One mixed...

Can't vote for a Republican election denier. That makes this an easy question to answer. I'd feel the same if I was a voter in the Bronx, New Orleans, Savannah, Grass Valley or Phoenix.

I tested negative this morning, exactly a week after first noticing symptoms. That seems like a pretty quick overall trip up and down. Is Paxlovid responsible for this quick turn round? Only my...

To answer the obvious question, I post using an iPad or my iMac and results seem to be the same whichever platform I use. However, it's true that for the last week (since testing positive) I've...

I think if you contracted covid, you'd be less inclined to ingest anything via your lungs. Edibles or drink certainly, but the idea of smoking simply doesn't appeal to me at this time. Having a...

For the last several months I have noticed that videos I have posted do not actually appear in the body of the text. Apparently they are visible to others but after posting them, they only appear as...

Culture break.

I'm not sure what you're saying here but I have offered no explanation as to what series of events caused this result other than to suggest blowing it from atop the roadway would be the least...

Thanks Kevin!

For the record, I took the final dose of Paxlovid this morning. I also tested positive at that time. I've still got some congestion and a bit of a hacking cough but no fever...

I have a second contributing factor because I had cancer 15 years ago. I’m also a little older than you are not that I like admitting it. I was indeed informed about possible side effects and my...

^They’re Russian for the exit. We’d hope anyway.

The best bridge blowing scene that proves conclusively how it’s done. You can’t get better proof than this scientifically authoritative scene.

Jesus Nick don’t be thick. This is exactly how it’s done in the real world. I will post some more for you.

I was referring to working the problem from the bottom up as it were, not from above the trestles. That’s what I mean by attacking it from below, at the attachment points or at key structural...

Has such a sickening repulsive resonance. Who exactly are the Nazis in this struggle anyway? The ones pointing fingers are the very ones pulling teeth. Ipso facto.

I agree Skip. Or as is likely, it wasn’t a truck bomb alone. Blowing a bridge from the top is extremely difficult. But then again……. it was built to Russian standards. Since posting last night...

Thanks George. I expected your participation of course. Your posts reflect my sense of the benefits this therapy provides. Despite my burning desire to not be seen as geriatric, when it came to...

I’m doing fine gents, thank you all for your concerns, each and every man Jack of you.

I wasn’t terribly worried to begin with as I’m as vaccinated as it’s possible to be and I don’t have...

I was so sure I was going to not get it, Ron. However, we hosted friends….from Seattle!…..the previous week and one of them unknowingly brought it with him. I credit him with my exposure, but...

Was that one or two tours, Sandy? Thanks for your service.

After all this time I developed symptoms this Monday and tested positive Monday afternoon. I called my doc as at 76, I am technically high risk. I am of course fully faxed with two boosters and...

Since I wrote that late last night I’ve had second thoughts about blaming the collapse just on construction quality. Obviously a large explosion had something to do with it! But it is true that...

About that bridge. The Antonovsky bridge has been pummeled by HIMARS for months and still stands, albeit considerably weakened. The Crimean bridge collapsed after this single admittedly potent...
