  1. Very legit. The natural progression was a moderate to aggressive recovery. Obama's policies reduced the natural progression to a very, very weak uptick due to stifling regulations. Trump removed these barriers, which allowed the economy to flourish. Would you care to offer a refuting causational theory?
  2. The growth under Obama/Biden was abysmal...that is...it naturally moved forward at a snails pace despite Obama/Biden's policies. Look up why S&P gave the US our only downgrade in the history of our country. Trump removed the ball & chain, resulting in, well you know. (I have to link Biden to Obama because, well, you also know.)
  3. Yes. As soon as he started rolling back stifling, job killing regulations imposed by the previous administration.
  4. I'm curious, if this new technology is implemented, then as a result the trees/plants start dying off from lack of CO2, who will get the blame? If this new technology is implemented, then as a result the environment starts to cool, who will get the blame? If this new technology is implemented, then as a result the environment shows no changes, who will get the blame? If this new technology is implemented, then no matter what happens, who will be hailed as heroes? Who will suffer the wrath? Everyone on this board knows the answers to each of these questions. Shouldn't we study the problem before offering solutions?
  5. The Liberals know law enforcement is necessary. They are trying to demonize the cops in order to instill Federal control over them. Get rid of local enforcement and nationalize it, just like a national healthcare system. Can you imagine a Federal government that controls your housing, your healthcare, your education, your job, and your personal protection/law enforcement? We are very close to being there.
  6. I'm did not see anywhere in the article where this guy gave any evidence of Man Made Global Warming. He basically said most people were ignorant of science (which I don't really disagree) and he was forced out of NASA for sticking to his Man Made Global Warming mantra. I didn't see any evidence in the article that should warrant giving credence to this guy's beliefs. If you know something more about his research/evidence, please share. A possibly disgruntled former NASA employee in no way persuades me to join the Man Made Global Warming cult.
  7. For not reading them, you sure do reply to all of them...and as usual...your replies are off topic. I actually complimented you on your post. YOU derailed it like you always do. Now will you stay on topic or retreat to your safe space as you fling insults at everyone. Call me out again then try to play victim! It's exactly what got you booted the previous times.
  8. I'm just "yanking your chain". Why do you continually try to belittle everyone on this board? Why did you call me out on a post you started with "you low IQ posters"? Are you actually trying to play victim? Do you think you should be the only one that can insult people then retreat to your safe space? All I'm doing is replying to your asinine posts using your same asinine playbook. How can you not see this? You are just like a kindergartner who calls his teacher stupid. And are you really still trying to act like this scenario hasn't played out before? As bad as your previous performance was, I guess I would repress that memory also. How long do you think you will make it this time?
  9. Wow, you actually responded to a post without trying to tower over with your self-proclaimed intellectually superiority. What a refreshing way to air your opinion. Maybe you should stick to this form of response. You actually don't sound quite (scaled) as stupid than you do on the other ones. Thank you for your contribution...literally.
  10. I was reading about the judge still not dismissing the Michael Flynn case because Flynn pleaded guilty to lying...twice, and this oldie came to mind: Farmer Angus A farmer named Angus had a car accident. He was hit by a truck owned by the Eversweet Company. In court, the Eversweet Company's hot-shot lawyer was questioning Angus. "Didn't you say to the policeman at the scene of the accident, 'I'm fine'?"asked the lawyer. Angus responded: "Well, I'll tell you what happened. I had just loaded my favorite cow, Bessie, into the..." "I didn't ask for any details", the lawyer interrupted. "Just answer the question. Did you not say, at the scene of the accident, 'I'm fine!'?" Angus said, "Well, I had just got Bessie into the trailer and I was driving down the road...." The lawyer interrupted again and said, "Your Honor, I am trying to establish the fact that, at the scene of the accident, this man told the police on the scene that he was fine. Now several weeks after the accident, he is trying to sue my client. I believe he is a fraud. Please tell him to simply answer the question." By this time, the Judge was fairly interested in Angus' answer and said to the lawyer: "I'd like to hear what he has to say about his favorite cow, Bessie". Angus thanked the Judge and proceeded. "Well as I was saying, I had just loaded Bessie, my favorite cow, into the trailer and was driving her down the road when this huge Eversweet truck and trailer came through a stop sign and hit my trailer right in the side. I was thrown into one ditch and Bessie was thrown into the other. I was hurt, very bad, and didn't want to move. However, I could hear old Bessie moaning and groaning. I knew she was in terrible pain just by her groans. Shortly after the accident, a policeman on a motorbike turned up. He could hear Bessie moaning and groaning so he went over to her. After he looked at her, and saw her condition, he took out his gun and shot her between the eyes. Then the policeman came across the road, gun still in hand, looked at me, and said, 'How are you feeling?' Now just what would you have said"?
  11. On the DVD edition, you have the option of turning on subtitles, or subtitles just for Brad Pitt's character.
  12. My two favorites are (in no particular order): Snatch Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels If you watch one...and liked it...you will love the other one. If you didn't like it...you will hate the other one.
  13. I bought a gun. Thank you Nancy and Chuck.
  14. If he makes a comeback, I will be poised to make mine. I'm sitting back waiting for him.
  15. I want to be the clock operator for this game. Hit start, kick back and relax. Easy money.

  17. From the way I understand the tie-breakers, in a three-way tie the point differential only determines the first team in. Head-to-head determines the second and third place seeding. Therefore, if HF beats WOS by less than 7, WOS gets the first seed based on point differential and Silsbee gets the second seed based on head-to-head against HF. If HF beats WOS by 7 or more, HF gets the first seed based on point differential and WOS gets the second seed based on head-to-head against Silsbee. This is the way most districts have determine the tie-breakers in the past. I don't know for certain, but haven't heard of any district changes.
  18. We lost Hornsfan86 last week to a fatal car wreck. He was one of the most loyal and passionate fans around. You could count on one hand the number of Hamshire-Fannett games we have missed in the last 30+ years...through rain, shine, sleet or...well, I don't remember any snow. I had to chuckle when talking to a bunch of friends this week. More than one person told me that when they got to the football game, they would look in the stands to find us...then proceeded to the other end of the stands. We didn't call each to other to asked if we were going to the game, we just asked what time do you want to go. Even after Harvey and Imelda, in which both of our houses were flooded, the conversation was still "what time are you going to pick me up to head to the game". I'm not sure how many people on here knew him, as he did not engage too much on this forum. But every ref that has called a Hamshire-Fannett game has surely heard him. But after the game, on the ride back home, our conversations were strictly on who we were playing the next game. He did not dwell on play calling, referee calls, or plays made or not made. Prayers to his wife and three kids. RIP Hornsfan86...you will be missed.

  20. Silsbee is not playing Hampshire Fannett. They are playing Hamshire-Fannett.

  24. Just another "A Modest Proposal". Jonathon Swift's descendants should sue for plagiarism.
