Why does it say Former DNI?


Came here to post the same. Thought I’d missed something.
Mom wanted a girl but got a boy. So she turned said boy into a girl and called him Violet. Dad is too big of a pussy to correct course.
Pelosi announces her retirement just as this starts to break, quite the coincidence.
I’m sure that can be pressure washed out. Not guilty.

Second this. I use them every time i visit NYC, a few times per year. Never had a bad experience.

This is my fear. He’s effectively neutralized and NYC hums along basically as is. The Dems then get to preach how “well” he’s done and how “the city is doing just fine” using it as a benchmark for other commie candidates elsewhere.
“A president as bad as our grammar”
Exactly what someone would say before coming out of retirement to coach LSU.
I think Andrew Dice Clay weighed in on this subject decades ago.

re: NIL era coaches contract

Posted by Big Jim Slade on 10/29/25 at 7:53 pm to
Unfortunately $10-15mill is the going rate for a top tier coach. But the contracts need void clauses, such that the schools aren’t stuck. Maybe tie it to a number of losses for consecutive years or final standings in the conference. The school has the option to void the remainder of the contract if the team has 4 or more losses for 2 consecutive years. Or caps on the length of the term, renewable each time. The coaches need some risk such that getting fired isn’t basically an incentive.

That would be outstanding if possible. If not no worries. Thank you.


Send a friendly reminder email in the AM.
I’d be a huge and uncaring a-hole at work too if I had $55mill coming to me for getting fired.

South Lake Tahoe is my preference. There are two Marriott Vacation clubs right in Heavenly next to the gondola. Usually reasonable priced, with a kitchen. Rooms at the casinos are fairly reasonable. Zalanta resort is about $700/nt.
