CanConners, to welcome in the new year, please join me in singing the New Year Hymn. . . We love it here We love it here Ya fuckin'-ay We love it here!

And yet you claim to "know" of the existence and involvement of a Great Big Sky Daddy with not a shred of hard evidence.

You're the one who seems to think that the U.S. having 4-5 times your gun homicide rate is no big deal. No, not at all. We take virtually no measures whatever to license, insure, or regulate cars and drivers. It's all one big continental game of bumper cars down here. No ruels. Good point...

Um. . . "the USA" isn't buying the goods. US companies (mostly US subsidiaries of global MNCs) are. Trump isn't actually buying them, neither with his own money nor with Federal tax money.

No side ever is.

Yeah, man, like that! Totally cool.

Hey, it's recycling! It's all crunchy and fruit n' nutty! Peace.

How many Trump bibles have you bought?

I do. The carrot/stick game is delicate. I actually have some sympathy for Netan-yahoo. We'll never know if he appreciates the subtleties, because he's got a pissed-off and terrified electorate to placate.

Civilised is BritEnglish. In the U.S. it's "civilized." I read a lot of British/Canadian literature and periodicals. My written English is a hodgepodge of them all. Damned if I can figure it. Listen, we got our asses kicked by a bunch of illiterate peasants in Vietnam. Only thing I can...

Hard to say, and I'm as lost as you are. But in the here-and-now, I'm good with "Israel is justified in protecting its people and eliminating threats to its people. In so doing, they must obey the laws of war. Or lose their support from the civilised world."

Try it with Trump. When you've decided you're sick of living.

I'm not even sure what a "Palestinian" is. Insofar as it's a culture of its own, it seems to exist in Gaza, the West Bank, and Jordan. So, no, I don't think an effort to shift the Gazans to the east (ironically where the "West Bank" is) constitutes genocide. That's debatable, though, because...

James Earl Carter, 39th President of the United States, 1924-2024.

Nope. Y'all take us debt and all.

It can be. "Genocide" is a deliberate attempt to wipe out a people as a people. It doesn't mean "killing a lot of folks." It needn't even involve much killing at all. It's the attempt to wipe out a culture. That's why kidnapping little kids into "schools," cutting their hair, and beating...

I hear Prince Harry's free.

Hunh. I'm not Canadian and not completely up on your laws, but I agree. . . this makes CBC an arm of the government and ineligible to hold a copyright.

Works for me. Why not just the whole country?

Curiousity. . . what percentage of CBC's budget comes from public funds? What are the other sources?
