Bill Clinton and the Pope both died on the same day. Due to a minor clerical error, the Pope went to Hell, while Clinton went to Heaven. When the Pope arrived in Hell, everyone realized the mistake. Due to an issue with the union, they couldn't swap the two until the next day, and the Pope had to spend the night in Hell, while Clinton spent the night in Heaven. The next day the paperwork got worked out. On his way up to Heaven, the Pope ran into Clinton. Clinton asked the Pope, "How was your night in Hell?" "Very educational," responded the Pope. "I've learned a lot from the experience, but now I'm glad I'm going to Heaven. I've been waiting all my life to meet the Virgin Mary." "Ooh, sorry," said Clinton, "you should have been there yesterday."

Let's not forget that Swalwell is facing allegations from staffers and he deserves the right to face the process of investigation and the right to plead his case and defend himself in a court of law..if he broke any laws.
I'm a bit concerned about the timing of the alleged conduct that is said to have occurred years ago. Swalwell deserves a trial and to be judged by a jury or judge.
If the allegations are judged to be true, Swalwell should be subjected to punishment according to the law. But if he is judged not guilty, so be it.
I have to hear the facts of the case before I judge anyone guilty...jmho

Re: Iranian War

I get it. But then again, the Gulf of Mexico is in international water and trump claims it's now the Gulf of America. I was saying the same thing you're saying when he claimed he changed the name of it.
I understand the circumstances are different but the claim to have control over anything in international waters is the same. so from what I understand this morning, there were the same sticking issues-nukes and the strait and Iran I would think has issues with reparations and sanction relief and they want to keep their nuke material. We put our best deal on the table and the two sides agree to disagree-but as of a few hours ago the ceasefire was holding and most would like the two sides to come back to the table. Don't know if that is going to happen. on fox this morning, trump said that he could wipe out Iran in a day and now the US is looking to blockade the Strait and refuse shipment to any ships Iran lets thru. So, I have an interesting question-Who was buying most of Irans oil-China. Are we going to go and tell a Chinese oil tanker who is coming in/out of the Strait to get lost? I am assuming that later today oil is going to jump biggy and unless there is the weekly taco event, stock futures are going to fall. On Friday, I went through all my investments and put most of our investments back into safer investments. Not too much in stocks right now Remember one thing about investments, you don't lose money until you sell. I don't know where you are in your investing lifecycle. Once you pass 40 you should begin to get more conservative with each decade. At least that was my guide. You still need to keep maybe 20- 25% of your portfolio in some solid growth stocks if you hope to stay ahead of inflation. If you are young, you might have sold low when you consider you might still have 25 years of investing in front of you. Markets go up, markets go down. Sometimes it's best to just go with the flow even if in the short term it is hard to look at your financial statements. I am a couple past 60-have about 4-5 years of work left unless they want me to still work as part time as needed-So, if i take a colossial hit, i don't have 20-25 years to make it back. And when I moved money last week-I was about 65% index growth stocks and 15-20 foreign growth stocks, most of the rest in bonds and prob less than 10% money market fund/cash. Way too aggressive for my age and the geopolitical time we are in. Don't think I have lost money at end of a year since 2008-up until 2025 I am probably averaging mid teen % growth at end of each year.

Justice Department opens investigation into NFLThe Justice Department has opened an investigation into whether the National Football League has engaged in anticompetitive tactics that harm consumers, according to people familiar with the situation.
The Sports Broadcasting Act grants the league limited antitrust protection to allow the teams to collectively negotiate packages of TV rights. Media companies, regulators and members of Congress have raised concerns in recent months over how difficult it is for consumers to be able to watch their favorite sports games as a result of rights deals in which leagues offer smaller packages of games to streamers.Full article: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/other/justice-department-opens-investigation-into-nfl/ar-AA20w86L Generally I don't agree with government interference with business, but here I agree. It's too complicated with all the TV packages being awarded.

Re: Myles

I am torn on Myles, love him, hes been the one thing we have that keeps me excited every Sunday. If he stays great, but if someone comes with 3 ones+ I would hate losing him but the Browns could rebuild this thing much faster! I believe the Browns feel that with this defense if they can have an improved offense they can contend in the AFC North. They need to finish the Oline rebuild and find some more weapons at receiver and hope that either Sanders can take a leap in his development or Watson somehow returns to 2020 form. If neither happens and the team gets off to another bad start to the season, I expect Garrett to get traded at the trade deadline. Many experts are saying the 2027 draft class has potential to be one of the best draft classes of all time. I do not see the Browns trading him before then because this draft class is not seen like that. There will be 3 receivers maybe more that will have a higher draft grade than Carnell Tate. Let's face it if Arch Manning were coming out this year, he would be #1 overall before Mendoza. Dante Moore will also be rated very high at QB and a few other QBs are viewed as 1st round talents at this time. That class is being viewed as being deep at the marquee positions QB, WR, and DE.

Mice hate peppermint and also ammonia will deter them (smells to them like cat pee)
I remember when I liked in Michigan. I must haver been 9 or 10. We got a mouse in, and set a trap. We caught it pretty quick. My mom couldn't take it out, so guess who had to do it. lol Never saw another though. We set further traps, but never had them go offf, or had the bait disappear.

I certainly like that idea in principal. It makes perfect sense to me. But what it brings into play is yet another instance where you have the refs making a judgement call which will always be second guessed and will vary from officiating crew to officiating crew.
I know something needs to be done and your idea is as good or better than any I've seen to this point so don't think I'm knocking it because I'm not. What my intentions are is to say that no matter what you do to resolve it, it will bring up yet another issue.

So not guilty still means guilty? Can't even come up with enough evidence to get an indictment still means guilty? Got it. I never said anything about guilty. I was addressing Damans comment. You were around here during the OJ fiasco. I was the one saying he was innocent because he was found innocent, and people got mad at me. Read his words again, then my words again and you will find you are barking up the wrong tree.
