Re: Trumpwatch 2.0

The 'capitalist' are loosing money BUT what will it cost to fix all the undoing to just get back to a good working level after so much institutional knowledge is gone and the replacements haven't gotten the needed training to replace at the level required.

Re: Trumpwatch 2.0

Didn't playing Sgt Shultz, " I know nothing", get us going with Covid? "When it gets warm it will go away...." Shutting down the communications between health agencies around the world is a good way to let it get a good foothold here due to lack of information. Reminds me of the Michael Lewis book ...

Re: Trumpwatch 2.0

The breakfast 'hat trick' is coming. Last week NPR did a story on the lack of finding people to week in the hog processing plants. The companies have been short help and now with the ICE due some have pulled up stakes and left town. Right now there are 100 job openings for every 39 people. The ...

Re: Saving Photo Albums from Fire

It can be a time consuming project to digitize. It took a chunk of my life to do 4k slides of my racing photographer stint. Then the black and white negatives. Then the family photos after my parents passed. It was worth it. I combined it with the family history from work on Ancestry. I now have a ...

Re: First Time I Listened to FM Radio in a While...

Have to agree on the state of FM stations. I to listen to sat radio when in the car. At night (late) I'll listen to WHMI cuz I like what they play and not much ad wise between songs. The draw back was getting the station clear due to an Ohio and ONT station fighting for time on my radio. I fixed it ...

Re: Biden commutes sentences of 37 federal death row inmates

Does this mean that old Joe IS more pro life than the folks that want the ultimate penalty?

Remember when Sgt. Joe Friday would tell the perp to give up or he would get the gas chamber?
I guess that deterrent don't work no more.

Re: Seen On A Sign

For years on I 96 near Howell there was a billboard that said (for maybe 20 years)

SAVE THE REPUBLIC
IMPEACH EARL WARREN

It had that local sign on private property and got cleaned up every few years.

Re: College sports is ruined

NCAA brought this all on themselves for the way they have collected H*** sums for the rights on the backs of the 'student athletes'. I would be willing to figure that a D1 football player spends more time on football related activities, then also school classes (to keep their eligibility) than the ...

Re: Trumpwatch 2.0

We are seeing a repeat of the 2016 class of important jobs being filled. I highly recommend the Micheal Lewis book The Fifth Risk on how Trump had people taking charge of Dept. that they had no idea what they did. I profiles the people who toil in the basement offices that make thing run as smooth ...

Re: Theatre Critics Descend On Howell Performance

Note; The last time these folks visited the Livingston area, it turned out that none were residents.
Was this some of what the Sheriff talked about in his Trump ads?

Re: Trump voters, talk to me about the logistics of the mass deportation

Has anyone thought as to how much it will add to the tax burden for the residents? Besides doing the jobs that the average citizen won't do as a career like picking veggies and fruit. This group adds 100 billion $ in tax money that for the most part they can never reclaim like Soc Sec. A hundred ...

Re: Trumpwatch 2.0

Remember when Trump trade moves caused China to get it's soy beans elsewhere and Congress had to bail them out. The business has never gotten back to the level that it was.

Re: HATE WEEK!

Money and NIL will spell the end to the old way college sports are to be treated. It's become pro style teams with NO long term contracts. (4 year college) Jump where the money is or promised like the U Nevada QB who quit when the check was a no show. The end of game stuff.... Go back and watch the ...
