In fact, virtually none of them. Okay, Andy Jackson, but otherwise...
I love travel, food, good story-telling, and empathy. I also have a huge man-crush on the rule of law. I run a company that does business phone, video conferencing, and contact centers especially for local governments. www.vertical.com

They could reboot Double Dare together.
Yep, moving from Colorado to Alabama is such a smart move. Think of how much easier it will be to attract talent with Alabama's quality of life compared to Colorado...hold on, I'm being given some new information.
Who would have standing to sue on this one?
Always Angela Lansbury
Beautiful
Oh, I can fully endorse that. I loved that movie, but I don't see how you could ever remake it. For one thing, it's not very good.
Ohh....wow. I would just melt.
Historical Tiktok?
Historical movie?? 🤣
Are they rebooting Bedknobs and Broomsticks? Cause that's not a great idea.
Might be too boring, but I'd ask their favorite historical book. See where they are coming from.
Oooh, yum. Reminds me of trips to Seoul.
I assume that was, "original?" Makes sense.
Ohhh, so sorry. My past self empathizes immensely with you (present self doesn't want to remember back pain).
I'm just wondering what DOD sign vendor donated a couple of million to Trump. Also, have they considered at all that every DoD reference will now be DoW. Every move will influence the stock market.
On items we own, we list the Tariff line item on the customer invoice(though keeping track is a bitch). The real problem is items from other vendors. We try and keep track of what pricing changes the make, but most of the changes are just embedded into their list price.
We love to watch them every morning. Sometimes, their fishing technique makes me wonder how they get in shape for winter. Some of them are SO bad. www.youtube.com/live/73-Eekd...
Ooh, I love the clown riots. This is a pretty good article on it.
I understand. I never did anything about Mr. Woodchipper either. I just fumed a lot.
Are you SURE it isn't the one down the hall?
Oof, that's pretty brutal. I suggest getting up one morning at 6 and knocking aggressively on his door and ask to borrow something (his mower would be ironic). I once had a neighbor start taking down a tree and putting it through a wood chipper at 8 am. I never forgave them.
I do wonder if all the crap Lee got, early on, for digging in constantly and fighting defensively made him more aggressive in his later decision-making.
I mean,strapping different things onto the hull was the original design intent of the LCS.
That's the way to resource the assault.
You gotta labor to appreciate Labor Day, John.
Sorry about the mess. You should run away to Colorado.
They could use LCACs. Might be a bit wide, but the surface effects could be really fun.
Yeah, we just have to roll the die on each import and see what number we get this week. I know if several companies who have just walked away from shipments because they can't get a clear number.
Wow, Lewis & Clark shade! I love it.
Now if they claimed hackers would seize control of the wind farm and kill all the whales, they could have had a point. Alternatively, they form Voltron. Both are more sensible than this nonsense.
PaddingTen
Yeah, I started playing with the original as well. I just bounced off of Civ VII completely.
Not sure VII will ever be worth it.
Which Civ?
First thing I touched was an Apple IIe at the science museum. Later, we got a Vic-20 in our classroom. First computer we owned was a TI-80.
I remember the hell of installing Office 95 using flobby disks. There were 30 some odd, if I remember correctly.
I'm happy that none of those weapons have a history of accidental discharges so bad that another branch of service have removed them from use.
No simple way, but check this article out. spreadsheetpoint.com/mail-merge-g...
The most obvious point in that excerpt is that Reagan was willing to compliment someone besides himself.
Firing people sucks, even when they deserve it. Sorry. You have to hire carefully to get the ones who do right. It's really hard and I don't think it be done at scale.
I assumed the rebrand was a prelude to taking the brand international. So many American restaurants are depending on their international business to maintain growth.
Yesithas.
He's going to grab it off the chest of some poor homeless vet.
Every time you lose to a team you get to draft two of their players to make your team better.
Is there a serious threat of IEDs in the DC area? Cause that would be a big story.
Heh, watching it now as I see this post.
Is there ever a point where Christine Baranski doesn't deserve all the awards?
Note, we are collectively ignoring the offer of SunnyD. That stuff is vile.
In Nigeria, Cookie Monster is Zobi and likes to eat Yams.
Just add an LLM into the cabin and you can get all of the weird conspiracy theories too.
Shrimp Boy?
Ohh, I saw this in the theater and, even then, I knew it was terrible. I have it on streaming and keep trying to convince myself to watch it.
There's a reason we call all infantry, crunchies. And if I'm buttoned up, there's nothing a zombie could do to the tank crew (or Bradleys, or even 113s). Also, as an aside no Military communications net works anything like how Brooks had it working in the book.
There are MANY problems with the Battle of Yonkers. My personal problem is that he insists tanks were worthless because they only had sabot rounds to fight with. As if flechette ammo doesn't exist. Much less the coax machine gun with 12,000 ready rounds. And a tank can carry a lot more ammo.
But fun to listen to her ramblings. You should see her when she finds a new animal friend, especially a bird.
Me, too. I just had some lady going on and on about a junkyard in my feed.
I'm betting on a LT in charge.
Has Trump said, "Peace in our time," yet?
Now, we wait for an LT to make a bad decision.
If I was Ukraine, I would only accept 3 armored corps permanently on the Russian border as a security guarantee. We have already shown them that paper guarantees are not worth anything.
Mary, that's just going to result in a need for an even BIGGER room.
I think caring requires successes for those already engaged. For others the problem is that we need to completely overturn their information ecosystem. They aren't hearing the same story. That's hard.
How about you just have them take on some of the many roles that the State Department no longer does. Have them report on their progress regularly.
It's like buying a PC in the 90s. You got a do some work to make it livable. Can be done, but it is work. Better than buying Google's crap.
Ooh, good to know. Pre-ordered. The whole family will be happy!
Easiest way to understand this is to read Gen. Smedley Butler's War Is A Racket. Butler participated in most of the Banana Wars (as well as fighting in China). War is a Racket is his speech turned pamphlet about the Marine Corps becoming the tools of American Business.
Aww, just some horsing around.
Who knew that John Bolton was a Doctor Who fan.
That's a stretch.
Ooh, I bet. I can't quit thinking that Crecy would like a word.
Yes
I suggest a T-shirt cannon. I bet you could get a sub in there.
Is Trump going to give Putin some B-2s, or just let him take pics inside? www.twz.com/air/b-2-bomb...
I often consider RTFM as my superpower.
I think this will all end with all PME just being the bayonet course.
Best is hard. There were these meat pies at the Omni in Atlanta in the 80s that I couldn't get enough of. But I think the best meal ever was at La Jules Verne in the Eiffel Tower. Just an amazing combination of food, service, and location. Worst? Durian rates.
Putin may include that Nobel Peace Prize in the deal. He just has to invade Norway first.
Ever feel like you want to go back to 1908 and convince Frederick Winslow Taylor to do something else with his time? Maybe we could have avoided some of the MBA-induces carnage in this country.
Great time for a comeback for the torpedo sandwich.
This sounds MUCH better than the actual movie.
Me too, Otis, me too.
Oooh, that would be cool. Wait was there air support that it was spotting for? Cause that's an ambitious show.
They'd be over in the Apocalypse Now show?
There's no stopping you.
This is the best thing of my day. My nephew does this. He's argued for a Switch, a new baseball glove, and much more.
C'mon, Trump plays a nice hand of solitaire. The red queen comes up. Putin gives him his orders. Russia gets Alaska. That's 30 minutes, tops.
No, that's going to be Marco Rubio.
I got a agree with Lacy Baugher here. The latest Strange New Worlds episode makes me want a prequel series about the Scavengers. Really deep backstory for a single episode villain. www.denofgeek.com/tv/star-trek...
I'm ashamed I remember it.
Can Nicholas Cage learn to fly using NVGs? A thrilling tale of squinting if I remember.
I used to like Ledo's a decade ago or so. Can't remember details though. Maybe I'm wrong.
My nemesis was a head of sales who's attitude was he could lie his way through life. Pissed me off every day. Then, I became his boss and he had mellowed over time. We ended up working well together. Who knew?
The State Department, you say? These guys? www.npr.org/2025/07/11/n...
Wow, there's so many things wrong with that characterization of Agincourt. I can't begin. This guy needs a civilian history professor to teach him.
It's a great book? Or your publisher is secretly selling drugs with your book as the mule? Make sure to get your fair cut.
Super cute kitten face!
The opposite of bureaucracy is arbitrary dictator.
Hey, they got rid of the FEMA camps, and the helicopters are green!
