baseball is NOT the most BORING game on television, however…that falls to golf which is for old men who find watching grass grow much too enervating…
And soccer, what Europeans refer to as “football”, might be interesting if they trebled the number of players and reduced the size of the field upon which it’s played 50 % – though I really enjoy the all too few times when failed local community theater actors fall to the ground holding their shins and pretend to be “injured”… It’s been repeatedly proven that it’s much more dangerous to be in the stands, watching than on the field – playing…
And it probably won’t be over even then, given Donnie John’s track record from the election of 2020 – we’re just going to have to learn to ignore the “noise” from the Right and let the courts, at least those that haven’t been totally corrupted by republicans, that is, decide – and the “mentally deranged” segment probably will NEVER accept the outcome – Trump still maintains that he won in 2020 even after having lost over 60 attempts to prove otherwise in the courts, so don’t hold your breath, Tim…
Sorry, Dobber, it’s an “inside” joke we “oakies” sometimes use – in Spanish, “baja” means beneath or under and somewhat lower than whale excrement beneath Oklahoma is the excrescence ALSO known as “Texas”…
Didn’t mean to confuse you…
(Although, these days, Oklahoma isn’t much better than Texas, politically, but, hey we all need something to look down upon) And since you now need a Scanning Electron Microscope to find the intelligence in the average M.A.G.A. republican, it’s almost abusive to make fun of THEM…
101, I will admit to an “appreciation” of the various “Bond Girls” over the years, but understand THIS – two to three hours of great sex does not begin to give me enough reasons to want me to put myself in “Bond’s shoes” – I’m of an age where good conversation trumps (pun definitely intended) great sex every time – I married a woman (not a girl; a woman) who had three advanced degrees going into my marriage – I joked that SOMEONE had to carry the “torch” of intelligence in our marriage and over the plus 40 years of our marriage this has been proven true over and over again- for instance, she too despises Donnie John and you can’t get much more “simpatico” than that…
What we have here is a case of history repeating itself – in the 1850s we had a substantial portion of the American population supporting a totally “untenable” political situation – we have that situation yet again…
When the country fragments THIS TIME, let’s see if we cannot be so stupid as to try to put it back together, again… we REALLY NEED to get rid of “Baja Oklahoma” – that would rid us of a major source of the cultural “poison” Trump keeps blathering about…
Why would ANY rational, sane individual EVER want to be James Bond?
Outside of the marginally interesting Astin Martin he sometimes got to drive, you would have to be a member of a second-rate clandestine secret service in a country that was marginalized by World War 2 and by the reprehensible way we Americans treated them (they were the ONLY European country that had to pay back the “financial help” we extended during the war)…
Of course, “Brexit” proved they never were the brightest “bulbs in the basket”, but still… “Bond” ?…
One of the things I never had, growing up, was a snowsled like “rosebud” – father being in the military precluded acquisition of a whole lot of things most kids had as kids – if mom and I wanted to travel with dad (and we both did) – the acquisition of extraneous “stuff” was “verboten”.
Actually, Joe, the nation is ALREADY pretty much torn asunder by the idiocies of Trump and the republican party – any LEGAL actions would only serve to START the healing – however, as ANY medical person will tell you, the LONGER the wound is allowed to fester “unclosed” the harder it will become to heal…
and left “unsutured”, it will never again be as strong as it once was – amputation and cauterization is often the only successful course in such cases…
Why would I want to do that, Salty? a lot of people ALREADY think I’m an ignorant moron – why would I want to prove them RIGHT? That makes no sense at all…
