    They were trolling you. Any way, who gives a goat's ass? How many women in the past had to cope with cancer at around the same age, or younger? My mother did, and I knew a few more too.

    If she had not married William, she would be just another number for the general medical statistics.

    Why would any democratic form of government still pay homage and so much attention ...[text shortened]... h that said I conclude with a sincere cheer and best wishes for the woman. Long live Kate Middleton!

    I must agree with this. I like Kate a lot, but many women are diagnosed with cancer everyday, and very few of them have access to the kind of elite medical care Kate will have, because of this many will simply die.

    Everyone here is invited to the "Memorial of Jesus death" at your local Kingdom Halls. All meetings will begin right after sunset according to your location on the planet.
    Please look up this subject at JW.ORG for more information on this meeting that Jesus himself commanded that his true followers would attend. Thanks....

    All well and good I suppose, but this is just an ad promoting Jenova's Witness. Other Christian denominations do this as well.

    “If you want to know the truth about liberals - it’s really simple.

    They’re the most hateful, vile, angry, bitter losers on the planet.

    And because they’re so miserable - they spend every single day of their lives trying to make happy, successful people as miserable as they are.”
    They’re the most hateful, vile, angry, bitter losers on the planet.

    I found most Liberals to be environmentally friendly, supportive higher education and of those whom conservatives normally abhor i.e. gays, lesbians, immigrants, and the underprivileged. In addition, Liberals seem to be winning quite a few elections, so your "loser" label isn't really accurate.

    - Sorry you don't see things this way. 🙂

    This is your president. 200k deportation cases thrown out under his watch. His world is a nightmare, we have to live in it. As a lib might say..."It's not faaaaaair"
    So, none of his failures bother you in the least.? You won't read it, but it ain't goin' away.

    Dear Joe - You really need to get more fun out of life. I'd like to remind you that deportation cases are decided by judges and juries, NOT the President, so blaming Biden doesn't make any sense. In addition, I think Joe Bidens world is doing just fine, there is no economic recession looming, we have a strong job market, and inflation has dropped significantly in the last 2 years.

    In case you're interested, THIS Liberal thinks it's all very fair. Presidents normally get blamed for everything from the weather to long stoplights, so cry all you want little elephant - I'll send you a box of tissues! 😆

    Stylish shirt you have there.

    Zoltan Ribli is an interesting guy; he didn't hit his peak playing days until his mid to late 30's.

    I agree regarding the traditional diagrams, the shadow idea in novel, but unnecessary.

    A low-tech idea from one of IM Kostya Kavutskiy's students is to make copies of tactics diagrams, tape or paste them to 3x5 cards, and note the solutions on the back of the cards. When you travel, just take out the cards and you're ready to do some tactics training. Not quite as effective as using physical pieces, but very portable, and NO electronics needed. 🙂

    RICO is a law that allows the government to punish individuals associated with criminal activity, specifically the leaders of crime organizations. RICO is a law. Not a crime. As usual you've succeeded in putting your ignorance on display. Keep up the good work Joe. 😏

    It's a world-wide problem because the buffoons in charge used covid as an excuse to dole out oodles of pork to their constituencies to gain popularity, with zero regard to responsible fiscal and monetary policy.

    The nature of politicians and how they think and what they can get away with is a world-wide problem.

    A brief 2-part seminar on how politicians think: 1. NOT getting caught lying is just the same as telling the truth. 2. If you got away with it, then it must be OK to do it again.

    You don't really need to find out what's going on.
    You don't really want to know just how far it's gone.

    It turns out the BS surrounding Trump has pretty much bankrupted the coffers of the formerly called republican party and Dems have a LOT more money now and they are pumping millions into ads using Trump's own words against him, 'immigrants poisoning the blood of the people' or some such rot and 'I will be a dictator on day one. which repubs say nay, he was just joki ...[text shortened]... out the hard way when they no longer can vote and elections will be run just like Putin 'elections'.
    Thank You. Hope you are correct.

    Assuming you support anyone but Trump (as most people on this board obviously do), the battleground polling has got to be at least a little concerning.

    According to aggregator RCP's list of battleground polls (Wisconsin, Arizona, Nevada, Michigan, Pennsylvania, North Carolina and Georgia) it has been almost 2 months, since January 28 (a Franklin & Marshall poll that gave him ...[text shortened]... I polls were tied).

    https://www.realclearpolling.com/elections/president/2024/battleground-states
    IMHO It's too close to call. All I know at this point is this will be an especially bitter and nasty election between 2 old men that are not very popular. This is why I shut off the TV at night, retreat into my little office and move funny looking little wooden pieces around a chessboard.

    Aaron Taylor-Johnson will be the next James Bond.

    The studio has reportedly sent over a contract. He would be a fool to turn this role down.
    I watched Daniel Craig get blasted to bits in the last James Bond movie, and now we have another James Bond? I guess that's OK, but no more Bond for me.

    So MANY reasons, how about restricting corporations investing more in the company. Do y'all REALLY think Biden has the best minds when it comes to economics?
    If you knew anything about how our tax code works, you'd stop posting this nonsense.

    Why do you insist on letting websites do your thinking. Can't you think for yourself?

    this is why women should have never been given the right to vote.

    The White House has argued that the law violates the Constitution and federal law by interfering with the U.S. government's power to regulate immigration
    Liberal Justices Ketanji Brown Jackson, Elena Kagan and Sonia Sotomayor dissented from the majority decision
    this is why women should have never been given the right to vote.

    This attitude by the right wing is why conservatives have lost elections and may very well lose the next one. Like it or not, women make up a really big voting group. It's not wise to alienate them.

    To start with, I'm not blaming any specific political philosophy. I'm blaming the people who kept schools into the 2020-2021 school year (and especially beyond that). I don't care what their other political beliefs are.

    Normally I would agree, but times are changing. Technology and a strong job market is changing the way people work. It's no longer "like every other job" since an increasing number of people work from home - pandemic or no.
