Hello darkness, my old friend...
Seriously, I would fear living in the people's Republik of New York more than I ever feared the darkness.

What do you call the bottom 5% of lawyers?
Your honor...
At least that seems to be the case in recent years.
In decades past, I knew some very capable judges, but not so much today.

A slash through a zero prevents confusion with an oh.
But being American, I see little use in adding extra slashes on other characters as though I were German.

re: Can someone explain to me why the Boy Scouts had to start letting girls in?

Several of the leaders left and formed Trail Life as a boys only program very similar to how the Boy Scouts were previously structured.
No.
Deposited my paycheck into an account that we jointly held and trusted her with everything. Set up investments in a transparent manner all along the way.
Might not work for everyone, but I went all in on this relationship and have no regrets.

Someone understood that we are the militia.
This guy can face himself in the mirror knowing that the guy staring back is worthy of respect.
Well done!

The old growth rings from dense forest were very tight and strong from living in hard competition with less access to sun and nutrients while new growth was not overtopped and grew in even aged stands - with fertilizer. The newer plantation forests often grow without competition and have rapid growth with thicker, but weaker annual rings.
What you are seeing might well be accurate.
It might also be different species of tree.

Context is missing here. Clearly, something unusual caused the first officer to be there with the bean bag launcher as the video starts.
The strikes were in response to failures to comply with commands, struggles against being restrained or attempts to get up. Almost all were to less damaging areas - deep tissue parts of the body except for one where the arrestee may have turned his shin into the strike as it was taking place. Oh well.
This was not a vindictive beat down, but controlled strikes to gain compliance. My bet is that it will be ruled reasonable use of force.
The lesson here is to not violate laws and then to comply with lawful arrests and argue your case in court rather than on the streets. This is how nobody gets hurt,

re: Is it time to separate health insurance from the employer's responsibility?
Posted by Rabby on 10/24/26 at 10:49 am to theliontamer
The problem is that a few large insurance and drug companies are monopolistic and manipulating situations for ridiculous profit opportunities. We need to have some antitrust actions to break up their games for more competitive options.
We also need to limit the narrow interpretations for drug schemes where minor dosage variations are treated as new patents. US medication costs are too high and for no good reason.
The laws and policies need to be adjusted to benefit the consumers rather than the huge corporations.

If an organization would like to have loyalty from employees, they should initiate and invest in such a relationship and then maintain it.
Employees should try to set a similar relational tone, but they are not in the position of strength.
It takes effort from both sides to have a mature and loyal relationship.
Quid pro quo.

re: Are "Trunk-O-Treat" events for poor people who don't love their children?
Posted by Rabby on 10/23/26 at 4:08 pm to LSU Coyote
Aside from that name, this practice is nothing new.
I have seen many churches hold such events for many decades.
They wanted to provide a safer experience and also control how the event was presented to children for theological purposes.
Seems very reasonable to me.
Why do people have such a problem with this exercise of free association?

An EARNED benefit is just that.
If it was not intended to be used, why did they set it as an expectation?
Stop watching how another employee uses this benefit as this is none of your business.

I spun discs on the Collins board in the East Stadium during the WPRG era.
Jim Engster was there.
Stocky passed away years ago. Sad. Last visited him at the talk radio studio on Florida Blvd after winning a contest.
Lisa B was in the news area and is still doing radio traffic out of the NOLA area.
I think WPRG had planned to run the transmitter across the river to get the KLSU letters approved by the FCC since WLSU was taken. Paul Burke told me something along those lines.
That was so long ago that Free Speech Alley was a weekly event on Wednesdays. We bought Dixie beer in the Union and drank it while hearing the people take turns talking.
Ancient history...

The boomers need to recognize that their homes are no longer selling for what they’re 5-10 years ago and need to start lowering the fricking prices.
A house that we are about to sell is universally appraised at an all time high - based upon closely associated comps.
But dream on as you burn pea green with envy.
