[quote]@DennisMJordan I am a Republican voter. I just did our taxes. The @GOP tax bill cost my family THOUSANDS of dollars this year on our return due to changes, thereby hitting us with the LARGEST tax increase of our lives. We are middle-class homeowners, and you raised our taxes. In...

I know a lot of people here didn't give us a chance of beating Philly last year at the NFC championship game even if we had beat the Vikings in that crazy divisional game. What's different about this year's Philly team that makes them not as good as last year's?...

Ok, maybe that was tongue in cheek, but it was the only year as a Saint where he failed to top at least one passing category. This year unsurprisingly he ended No.1 in both Completion % and Passer Rating. How I wish he was 30 years old instead of 40. He will be missed. [IMG]http://i68.tinypic....

And it's him that ends up behind bars? Chuck Rhoades and SDNY are formidable opponents even to the mighty Emperor, and not someone you frick with. [img]https://gingesbecray.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/17_00.gif[/img] [img]https://i.gifer.com/NgRv.gif[/img] [img]https://i.gifer.com/HJ2...

[quote]Elizabeth Holmes, once a darling of Silicon Valley, vowed to disrupt health care with inexpensive, accessible finger-prick blood tests. Now the 34-year-old founder of the biotech startup Theranos is facing federal criminal charges. On Friday, the US attorney’s office in San Francisco wrapp...

On this day, which is also Flag Day, I'd like to say this: As a legal immigrant who once came to America for higher education, I must say that the country I arrived in was a lot different than the one it is since the current administration took over. While I condone some (not all) of the political a...

[quote]One way to think of President Trump's trade policy as a sort of soap opera. There are multiple plotlines, there's high drama, and plot twists abound. And on top of all that, you can walk away for a while, come back, and still know the general thrust of the plot — in this case, the thrust bein...

Did it all start when USC won the AP national championship in 2003 pissing off LSU fans? Every other day there is a thread here bashing high California home prices and cost of living, cheering exodus of companies from the Bay Area and such when I'm pretty sure a majority of those railing on CA have ...

One can ask why we weren't having these tragedies 30- 40- 50 years ago. We have to look at some of the differences. The vast majority of us had 2 parents in the house. Most of us had one parent at home to raise us until 1st grade came along, so we had attention an overwhelmed daycare attendant can't...

[quote]An Indian once told me that Northern Indians are the engineers and math whizzes. The Southern Indians are the 7-11 and franchisee types. Or maybe it's the reverse. Anyway, I found that interesting.[/quote] It's the reverse actually. Most hotels are owned by Patels and Singhs who come f...

[quote]I have never ever supported ANY subsidy to any industry. When you choose to take your business somewhere, you are essentially "voting" for that business. [/quote] So I am assuming you are against mortgage interest deductions and long-term capital gains tax too? Because that is essentiall...

[quote]Let green energy come naturally through the market. Let consumers decide when they want to switch to green energy. It isn't right to prop up ANY industry that consumers do not vote for with their wallets.[/quote] So you are saying the Oil and Gas industry never benefitted from an...
