      Everyone knows there's no crying in football 

  2. Going to buy sunglasses for the eclipse of the sun. Hope it offers protection from the miniaturised nuclear warhead. Trump should be scaring the hell out of every Canadian.

      Celestron has a good reputation so those should be ok. Great price too. I didn't know about them, will check it out.

      we used a shoebox with a pinhole ! Kids these days!

      Yeah, "pinhole camera". These days we can do a little better than that though, old-timer. lol

  3. That thing we got going on. 

  4. Besides trivializing the plight innocent displaced by war, Trump's flippant tweet gets the math wrong. The risk of being killed by a refugee has been credibly estimated as 1 in 3.6 billion per year. The Washington Post says this number of Skittles would fill one and a half Olympic swimming pools.

      Donald can afford a bowl of skittles that big.

  5. "We're Canadians. We travel with our values. And share them. So while we're on the subject, gentlemen – it's 2016. We need a lot more women on this stage," Trudeau said, a nod to his speech at the November cabinet unveiling.

      I think the women who believe in that fallacy would be wise to remember the performance of the fashionable female premiers of the last 5 years. Of course they would need to be honest about it first, and ignore their gyno centric biases. We should have the best people, we should enable women to become the best, not promote them simply because they exist.

      Wind em up and watch them flail around.

  6. Nan's last Google search ""Please translate these roman numerals mcmxcviii thank you," the search said, followed by the answer — 1998.

      And googles response

      "Dearest Ben's Nan. Hope you're well. In a world of billions of searches, yours made us smile. Oh, and it's 1998. Thank YOU," Google tweeted back.

      Apparently you dont know Africa. Not a lot of snow there to ski on. But swim, of course they can.

      A fact. In 2014 95 of the top 100 marathon times were set by Kenyans or Ethiopians

    4. drummindiver

      drummindiver

      They could ski Kilmajaro while they are becoming acclimatized.

      Fact. So what? Kenyans in modern day Olympic history have won one marathon. Can we agree that a gold Olympic medal is the highest obtainable goal for an athlete?

      I made a tongue in cheek remark, because I didn't agree with your comment WCR, though I'm sure you didn't mean it in a mean way.

  9. You can't this stuff up! Palin's quote: "Another Latin word, status quo, and it stands for, ‘Man, the middle-class everyday Americans are really getting taken for a ride.’ That's status quo, and GOP leaders, by the way, you know the man can only ride ya when your back is bent. So strengthen it. Then the man can't ride ya. "

      Yeah, just like Joe Biden, the dumbest VP ever. Can't wait to watch him in the primaries!

    3. Shady

      Except when Biden says something stupid, people just shrug and say that's just Joe being Joe. Lol.

    4. On Guard for Thee

      On Guard for Thee

      The good news is that pallin says so many stupid things its unlikely she will ever hold the same office as Biden, but you never know what repubs might do. After all they elected GW talking about saying stupid things

  10. Why do the Republicans allow and encourage Palin and Trump to seek out the spotlight in Iowa? What's in it for them?

      Better than the baffoon currently occupying it!

  11. If Waldo was banned/sent to the cooler, then it is a dam shame and a poor reflection on this forum. Especially when we have folks like Shady saying 'does that guy ever learn' or socialist saying 'hopefully he comes back with better understanding'.

      Since he sent me a private message telling me to go f*** off, I have little sympathy for him.

      I've noticed there hasn't been any decent threads on environment- especially climate change issues of late. Now I know why. I'll have to fill in for him while he's gone.

      It's probably because it's not that exciting of a topic. Humans are resourceful. We'll find a way to repair any damage if necessary.

  12. Hillary has rented a house on the Hamptons until their residence is ready in 2016

    1. On Guard for Thee

      On Guard for Thee

      UM, would that new residence happen to be in DC per chance?

      Rand Paul has this thing locked up.

      Does Bill know hard is is to get escort services to make house calls that far out?

  13. Obama had a real zinger at the correspondent's dinner tonight. "Fox will miss me when I'm gone, It will be hard to convince everyone Hillary is from Kenya".

      Shady

      When did Fox ever suggest that? I guess he has to blame somebody for his failed presidency.

    3. On Guard for Thee

      On Guard for Thee

      Naw, I think Hillary is safe from that, Fox folks probably don't believe there are any white people from Kenya.

      Yep you're right Shady! Whenever Obama sais Fox news is bad, the donations pour like rain!
