  1. Either Uncut or Mojo had a ramble on rose give away made up of mainly live cuts. I'll look it up and try to get back to it. As to to the discussion of the film it's sort of like that old story of the bljnd men touching the elephant and describing it. One has the head and trunk the other has the torso. They are describing the same thing but from different perspectives. I enjoyed the film, but I don't have the depth of knowledge that others have here.
  2. Good for him. The initial report was bad and the video looked pretty bad too. I'm surprised his knee wasn't at least hyperextended.
  3. Whoa, Bryce Harper torn ACL & torn PCL.
  4. Everyone will have an opinion on what to listen too, but most will include Bee Thousand at or near the top of their lists. I like Isolation Drills, Earthquake Glue, August by Cake. I like these because I tend to like concise pop songs From them. Robert Pollards CD's have a ton to offer too.
  5. "Fire and fury like the world has never seen before" I stopped reading Tom Clancy when he started repeating himself, but I've been told that line comes from one of his books. Edit: NK immediately crossed Trumps line in the sand, now what? BTW the president has absolute authority to order a nuclear strike. There are no provisions for checks and balances with out nuclear arsenal.
  6. Don Baylor passed away today.
  7. I don't know if it was here or elsewhere, but somewhere I heard some one describe pence as being Rick Perry stupid". On one level can see pence being worse than trump, but in another I just see trump as an f'ing verbal and visual embarrassment 24-7 while pushing his white nationalist vision. So it's Christian domination vs pseudo Christian white nationalism. We're screwed regardless but which is worse in the long run?
  8. If the GJ indicts people and trump Pardons them, they will still have been indicted, which may not mean much to trumpers but it will mean something to those who are not die hards.
  9. Sorry but McCan has never been a maverick. That is just the image he sells. He will be very concerned or outraged by this or that but he almost always votes the party line. I think 95+ % of the time he voted with Bush, nearly 100% against obama and over 90% of the time with trump. A maverick in image only.
  10. Sean Picer quits. Now what will Melissa McCarthy do?
  11. Trump is rumored to be exploring issuing pardons for himself and his family. Upon further reading I found that he can't pardon Himself or named co conspirators. So he can Pardon people involved up until Mueller issues his report. Then he can only pardon those who are not listed as named co-conspirators with himself. Those he pardons can still be compelled to testify and they can't plead the fifth because they've already been pardoned. This leaves them Open to potential perjury charges if they lie.
  12. I made s comment last year that he was referring to his supporters as fans. They still are fans and as long as his fans are pleased, he is pleased. And as long as he does whatever congress (the republican pet only) wants him to do, they will turn a blind eye.
  13. Trumps NYT interview is something else. Anyhow.,. Trump: Mueller better not look at my families finances. Mueller: Hold my beer.
  14. Right now it was just the three mentioned talking by themselves for about an hour at the state dinner. Out of earshot of everyone else, but they were in eyesight.
  15. Apparently at the G20 Trump slipped away to have a secret meeting with Putin. The meeting was just Trump, Putin and Putin's translator. What could possibly go wrong with this.
  16. He's not falling on his sword he's an idiot who couldn't keep his yap shut. Besides his dad tossed him under the bus today by saying he had no knowledge of this meeting till a couple of days ago. Of course he's lying because that's what he does. Btw kudos to the NYT for rolling this story out a little bit each day. Kind of caused jr to provide the smoking gun emails today. I wonder what tomorrow will bring. Edit: in October, after the Comey letter to congress, Harry Reid wrote s letter to Comey. In the letter Reid lets Comey know that he understands that the FBI has quite a bit of informat
  17. Don Jr is either incredibly dumb or he's getting really bad legal advice or he's ignoring legal advice.
  18. Trump, Putin and Tillerson having s meeting with no one else present...what could possibly go wrong with that? Edit...Lavrov and translators so six total and I guess whomever is listening in on Russia's end. Edit 2: WTF? Our current administration was not smart enough to even book hotel rooms for the G20.
  19. At Gettysburg this weekend a bunch of armed individuals showed up "to protect" confederate monuments graves and flags from Being dedicated by anti fascists (does that make them pro-fascist?) anyhow it was all based on an internet rumor that was proven to be false. In the long run these guys made visitors feel uncomfortable and one of them ended up shooting himself.
  20. Apparently someone hollered out for Freebird at a Dylan show in Berkeley. Surprisingly they then played Freebird. Next up...Whipping Post.
  21. Hmmm, non-living wages in Georgia, I'll bet kindly business owners could provide food, housing and appropriate work clothing for their employees. The employees overseers would make sure everything runs smoothly too.
  22. Trump had dinner with a couple republicans who are on the committee questioning Comey. Cotton and I can't remember the other one. He's not even trying to hide his obstruction any more.
