WI loss was a big bummer. Never got a reason for the WI asst technical. Refs were quite silly for the technicals they called, like pointing to the ceiling. I wanted the O Ducks to win, but if you can't shoot a free throw, you don't deserve to make it to the top 16 teams in the nation. AR - St Johns was fun to watch with the coach rivalry and glad to see The Hogs advance.

I was flippin channels on Utube TV and found the vintage MTv channel. Headbangers Ball was on playing this:

I'll bet Hilary did it as retribution for losing her security clearance.

No major upsets through round 1. Big 10 is holding up nicely. My teams will be lucky to make the 16, so no idea who can win it all. I do however, need The Ducks to take out Duke, just because.

Elon Trump thanks you for your service.🫡

Like Kid Rock shooting some H&K 9mm into the Bud? Or the bomb threats to some of their breweries. Or just search utube for a few hits on Bud abuse. Try not to forget too fast. Now, I did say this... Anyway, how much Tesla did you buy today? Finally order up the e-truck?

The Prez and his commerce sec want you to buy Tesla cars and stock. Get going! https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2025/03/20/trump-howard-lutnick-musk-tesla-stocks/82564889007/ https://www.wsj.com/finance/stocks/tesla-stock-selling-musk-politics-f144dbe5 While not the same, it reminds me of when everyone stopped drinking Bud Light, a shit beer and a most brilliant sabotage of the brand.

Less than the 63% N1 that kept the plane on speed and glidepath with the autopilot on.

Remember this guy? Maybe this an example of how? Also, when someone does this, media types will pile on the last 5 incidents in the article and insinuate they're all probably that company's fault.

Sim landings are never hard I guess.

I could use your whole post and replace the name with D. Trump. Or a Biden. Don't pretent the rest are angels. The D. stands for dishonorable.

Oooh, Putin better not piss off Trump, or he'll get The Tweet. See, there's The Tweet, and then there's the Mozam Tweet. That's where you can feel his breath as you read the tweet. Shits gonna get real. 🤣

I'm asking how your/BODNers investments are doing (I'm not making an assessment) with the turmoil created by T2, dun dun da dunt. If you predicted the downturn and shorted everything, congrats. But I think most Trump voters expected him to make everything great and didn't short the market and when they checked their accts recently, went WTF.

Trump says he ended weaponization of Fed Govt. https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/01/ending-the-weaponization-of-the-federal-government/ Now he says Biden pardons (which I didn't agree with) are void and now he will go after them. https://www.yahoo.com/news/trump-says-biden-pardons-now-113131037.html Isn't that, going after political enemies, the definition of a weaponized DOJ? Hypocrite.

@HeloDude I said investment portfolio, not economy. I was tempted to follow what Buffett did, cash out. Those above they answered it well enough for me.

That memo looks like it was written by.... a saint. I would rather have seen a memo like, "I just order 10 billion rounds of ammo. Get to the range. The standard is expert."

In chatting with some younger gens, the ones that talk 'burn it all down' say it, I think, because they can't/won't figure out how to compete in the world/reality we are in. They think if it's all torched that it levels the playing field. They think they can then gain an advantage. Maybe for an instant, but when it comes to success, I think there are two main types, sharks/hunters and prey/sheeple. The shark is successful today and will be successful tomorrow in any new world. The sheep will remain sheep. That saying, dog eat dog world, will likely always be valid. -‐---------------------- As for the Trump 2.0 experiment, how's everyone's investment portfolio looking?

I think I'm starting to understand Musk a little more. He wants a rapid unscheduled disassembly of govt, like his space ships. I was reading that Tesla sales are taking a hit, stock is down (wouldn't be surprised if Wall St Bets is shorting it), vandals are causing many Xs of 100Ks in damage to dealers/chargers, and 2X explosions. Maybe he should go back to his company. Or maybe the board should replace him. Either one probably makes the companies better off. You've got everyone in the whole world figured out. You want to spend less of your/our money on end of life care for others. So no hospice? Send em home and let em die like Gene Hackman? Sir, please lay here and die. Nobody will help. TV is on soaps. .45 is on the bedside table. See ya. What's your plan to make poor people health care more efficient, or rather, how is it inefficient today? Rewarding retirees for not saving for retirement. What is this reward you speak of? I think its safe to say there are retirees today that had pension plans but got taken by events. Many more thought the SS promise would take care of them. While IRAs have been around for a long time, the limits are too low to replace SS. Hell, there are plenty that thought their kids would take care of them because that's what they did when their parents got old. Other did save, but assholes banks creating the housing crisis put a dent it the plan. Or chiner/ruskie scammers stealing. Ooooh. For every $1 that chiner scammers have stolen, $10 in US debt is written off. Please describe this suffering future gens *will* have. I'm not saying the US should reduce debt, I'm asking what doomsday scenario you foretell. ------ Have any of you worked with an elder care planner/attorney? The rules and maneuvers around them play out so that assets are protected while the old gets care via govt. With a surviving spouse, this makes sense to a point. Without a surviving spouse, I am of the idea that your assets/savings are used to take care of you until you either die or run out of money.

"Trump loves me and will make sure I will pay less tax" "Trump loves me and will make sure I will pay less tax" "Trump loves me and will make sure I will pay less tax" "Trump loves me and will make sure I will pay less tax" Keep going, you're becoming convincing.

You mean lobby for EV tax credits so people buy my cars and end up becoming the richest man? You mean moving an HQ out of the US to create a tax haven? Fine, I'd like to declare my new HQ, for the purposes of taxes, in Limnadia. In Limnadia, the tax rate is 0% for all people that have planned military exercises regarding Limnadia.

Well, sadly there are Trump can do no wrong types on here who believe he is honorable and will do what is in the best interests of the nation...even after seeing him do wrong things. But oh well. I'm not supporting the dishonorable Trump in his burn it to the ground effort to change government and continue to allow billionaires to skirt taxes because they hire awesome lawyers and create clever ways to get around taxes and allow Musk to keep more of your money via his tax breaks for EVs (I had to continue the para to keep it in theme with your post. How am I doing?) Since we have a foundational difference of opinions and values (like honor), it's silly for this non liberal, non progressive, independent to go back and forth with the thick-skulled MAGAs on here, on this and other issues. Maybe you guys will get what you want. Maybe you'll regret it. Maybe you won't care. PS (you like these), in 2 years? Ha! Dems ain't got shit in one bag, let alone a bag. It will have to come from within the R party. But whenever one tries to show a little spine, they are truly revealed as weak ass lemmings.

I just noticed that nsplayer's profile shows as guest. Did he take his ball and go home?

So you're saying that to prevent our pic in the base paper, all we need to do is have a "gay" sign somewhere in the background? Damn, are they going to delete all the Navy pics?

Why do cuts need to be made to VA care to fund a Trump tax cut? Back atcha.
