Johnson, like Trump, has a life long public record of lying. Like our racist right Republicans' embrace of Trump, the British embrace of Johnson reveals a terrifying moral bankruptcy. There have...

Take care, lest The Committee intervene.

So far, 'conspiracy theory' covers this social phenomenon best.

Greta Thunberg refers to autism as her superpower.

I had a Sabra in the mid '60s. The twin SU carbs overflowed, the gasoline vaporized on the mufflers, and I'd use up another fire extinguisher. Not the chick magnet a 19 year old imagined. But...

Always loved this bit. A haul-out party special.

I put foam tucked into the inner band of the Quaker Marine Atlantic Roll-Up you can see on my pic here. I also add a functional chin band.

I've hunted with fire arms various birds, squirrels, rabbits, and deer. More to the pointless (from so many), I come from a family of unapologetic fox hunters. As Oscar Wilde put it, “The unspeakable...

"Barbara Tuchman (sp) may need to write a new chapter for the 'March of Folly'." [15]

Doesn't fit what she meant by folly and she's not available on this plane of existence anyway.

Ideas, philosophy, thought are supposed to make people uncomfortable. Not to be a sort of intellectually dead snuggie.

Modern flying is like particle physics.

You can know where you are.

You can know where you're going.

But you can't know both.

[IMc - Biden attempts to preserve the compromises of civility with what seems like betrayal. The real question may come down to whether Biden's search for the old ways will lure McConnell past all...

I've had good luck with getting to bare (or nearly bare) wood and flooding with CPES first. Then use a micro-balloon thickened (easy fairing) epoxy. Then a coat or two of epoxy before paint. If...

Granuaile, an LFH 'Marco Polo', was 5:1.

[IMc - I'm not sure that it's a coup, as in deliberately plotted, as it's the Court moving into the vacuum of McConnell's paralyzing both Congress and the administration. The effect of destroying our...

bobbys can read and therefore he or she knows that AOC is not giving medical advice but is referring people to those who can provide advice and services.

[IMc - The racist right Republicans would condemn AOC for assisting people with how to comply with the law.]

'Yeah, And?': Ocasio-Cortez Embraces GOP Freakout Over Helping Women Skirt Abortion...

[IMc - If this is as it appears, Biden could not have done more to ensure catastrophe in November. I can see the reasoning - Better to sacrifice one seat in exchange for McConnell's not blocking...

He's right on this weird issue. Still hard right on most things, especially civil rights. This is not exactly a native rights issue.

The Republicans blame it all on the Bork nomination. Bork's record favoring poll taxes, literacy tests, and opposition to the unenumerated right to privacy, not to mention his gleeful execution of...

Many sailors have learned the low-light vision trick of looking out the corner of the eye due to greater concentration of rods for periferal vision. This can be used to advantage for rowing even in...

The Trump supporters have enough lingering shame to not articulate the "good things". They just leave them on display.

He'll take it to the Supreme Court - Manchin fundraising for legal fees - and . . .

The Federalist Society called Hill a liar. And claims based on unsupported claims that so did Biden. ...

The reason I called the "selfish gene" a metaphor is two-fold: Not just a gene, but a combination; and there are countervailing genes that incline us to community, self-sacrifice, empathy, and all...

There is no filibuster in the constitution. The Federalist assures that the Senate runs on simple majority except for a few constitutionally named matters. The old "talking filibuster" was...

"Pond scum" is a problematic metaphor but it's evocative and it's not unusual for a idiomatic expression to fail literalist exegesis.

Meanwhile George certainly hits the key point that we need not...

Some years back Dad, my sister, and I went to DC to watch my brother argue before the Supreme Court to exclude his accused bank robber's confession. I had to promise my brother most solemnly not to...

Justice Thomas wants to "revisit" cases that like Roe v. Wade relied on the 14th amendment. Does that mean he'll "revisit" Loving v. Virginia?

Keel in the water; mast in the air.
Finastkind.

It was that a school eligible for federal money, in any form including tuition assistance, could not religiously indoctrinate or postalize the children. Now I suppose that any yeshiva school or...

The Six for right wing theocracy.

Is it hypocrisy or irony to inform a fellow Forum member of being put on an ignore list for being, it is claimed, a hypocrite?

A half dozen couples in a half dozen boats - a Kedgers' Klub flotilla - returning from a weekend's engineless cruise. Becalmed. Sticky hot. Time to break out some beer for the Nantucket Sound pool...

Good idea if constitutional. But it appears to cramp the constitution's Article II, Section 2, Clause 1.

Norman Mailer's first novel employed generous use of our favorite bannable noun/verb. The publisher changed all the entries to "fug" or "fugging". So when Dorothy Parker met Mailer she said, "So...

Great PSA.

Brilliant.

Yep. A big part of the job. Time spent fundraising is a bigger part for senators and representatives.

Love it.

My live-aboard life was respectable - on a mooring (town sticker and all) in summer, at a dock winter, boat documented, all clean and orderly even when doing major work.

New England weather...

What an opening. The racist right Republicans are right to do what little they can to undercut.

John's story as it emerged here is quite wonderful. He had a great and lasting impact on our community.

Republicans proving that their claims of electoral fraud are true.

People politics triumphed over party politics.

How did I miss that? Well written at that, showing a level of effort far beyond my easy C&P. I don't believe in deleting, even redundancies because I don't believe in hiding my flaws. But I certainly...
