At this stage I think nobody cares about Trump. The world (yes even MAGAts) has got Trumpfatigue. And the world has now started to develop a vague fear of finding out what a naked unrestricted republican party might do, post Trump.

Is that why politicians don't generally become effective terrorists? Nothing they do surprises me, and few know when to shut up.

Help me out here. What was the hidden message in it? PS I don't have a psych degree (but my darling wife does)

If you had told me yesterday Ida come over and sorted it forya.

A difficult task - but the only fix for the problem. I venture to suggest that nobody in their right mind, goes around shooting people. And guns are the only tools designed specifically for mass killing. Improving mental health, coupled with psych tests prior to granting gun licences would be a good start. Major penalties for any person found in possession of an unlicenced weapon, would help too.

Did I miss something there? Was I condemning, casting stones, or sinning? I stated my opinion. That's all. It's just my own opinion. Nobody has to like it. If you don't like that opinion I can offer you others.

Too late. Somebody already wote.. "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance".

I don't expect the employer (taxpayers) to pay for family airfares, etc. When I spent 20yrs travelling for work, my wage was somewhat higher than city based equivalents. Sometimes I delayed my return at the end of a project. I paid my wife's airfare to join me for the weekend. I paid the extra couple of days at the hotel. I was a mere technician but I did this to maintain some work/life balance, to make up a bit for my absence from home. I didn't think it fair to expect my employer to pay for that. Many jobs put stress on home life. Politician or bureaucrat is just one such job.

Nev, we live in a capitalist world. Politicians are in it for the money, even the ones that start out with high ideals. Maybe excepting the rare few who are motivated primarily by ethics.

Having now read the first chapter of "Tall Tales and True from an Adventurous Life", I am singularly impressed by the great strides you have made. You really can type! We hope all future posts are as well typed! Darn. Took so long to read, my coffee went cold.

There has been mention of that from time to time. Sadly, I think it is to be expected.

Yeah. We had summer for a couple of days last week. Shorts & tee shirts. Sunday the grey came back with wet air. Four degrees this morning!

Hey I was only highlighting a product that USA has a surplus of. The could benefit from exporting their surplus porky arseholes.

More than that, I believe that Both Russia and USA presently aim to break up the EU. It would be far easier for them to intimidate or intimidate the disparate European countries if they can be separated.

Allegedly:- "Russia has attacked 4 Turkish ships over the past 48 hours. 3 of the ships were hit by Russian suicide drones in the port of Odesa yesterday while 1 ship was hit by a Russian drone out at open sea." This looks like a bold step - attacking vessels registered to a NATO country. https://x.com/visegrad24/status/1999960598248091839/photo/1
