OK, you've already admitted your ignorance, and now you're lecturing me. Genius. Sheer genius.

Casey Jones you better watch your speed!

So, water generated. Thanks.

They had a bear down at the zoo. One day he'd run around and play and swim and climb all day, with inexhaustible energy. The next day he'd lie there all day, not even moving, not eating, nothing. They decided he was a bi-polar bear.

Hell, over 90% of everybody's power is water generated. That's what steam turbines run on.

Ignorant indeed. The op-ed section isn't people who write in. When you're ignorant, your best two options are to keep your hole shut, or to ask questions. And if you don't even know that the op-ed section is not "letters to the editor," you are supremely ignorant.

OK, first, if you don't know the difference between the New York Post and the New York Times. . . well, you're stupid. Second, if you don't know the difference between a Washington Post article and a Washington Post op-ed. . . well, you're ignorant.

Between $500 mil and $600 mil if you take it lump-sum. You lose Federal tax, state tax, and "time value of money." If you take the 30 annual payouts, you get a bit over $1 billion. But you lose the proceeds of investment for much of it. Best way to end up with the most money is to take the...

That's quite shocking. Usually hurricanes blow away leafs.

Steve Scalise. Yep, that's the conservative Kool-Aid. "The Democrats/Liberals/left would laugh just as hard if a Republican/Conservative/right or relative was attacked." The fact that it HAS happened and the Democrats/Liberals/left DID NOT respond with glee, lies, and jokes has no more effect...

Does it bother anybody here that the U.S. Republicans back Russia in Ukraine?

Cool. Smart. Brave.

Well, in an odd (and unintended, I'm sure) way, exactly that. A guru is a spiritual or religious teacher/advisor. Given that for all the hardcores, their version of environmentalism shows all the characteristics of a religion, I'm willing to call it a religion. So that'd make Thunberg a...

Well, I guess the Tories got half of what they wanted. Of course, if they really wanted BoreJo back, why'd they elect Rishi?

Yep, that's Sumer. Tigris-Euphrates plain. Can't swear to it, but I think it was Sumer first, later came to be Babylon. Is your story the right one, or mine? I'll look it up at some point out of curiosity, but can't be arsed at the moment. Basically the same. . . smart guy does something...

That's why vaccines are bad. People who don't like working out with a nice bout of smallpox or polio are lazy wimps.

Yes, what they often call "Zoroastrianism." Zoroaster was supposedly the king who foresaw the flood and led his people into the hills until it passed, then came down and rebuilt the city. I believe it was Uruk in Sumeria (it's been a while). As I understand it, what the bible-writers turned...

On Grafton Street, I saw a busker playing it. He was surrounded by a crowd of women, 8-80, singing lustily and doing the the "stomp." It is more than a song. It's an anthem.

Who cares? OK, they got a Really Old Book. I got an older one, the Epic of Gilgamesh. So if antiquity lends verity, ol' Gil wins.

To quote another famous actress (Princess Elsa) Let it go, let it go You're dumb as bag of dirt Let it go, let it go If you push, you'll only get hurt
