You smile cordially and ask if he needs some bags to carry away the haul. You thank him for the visit and tell him you look forward to his next visit and let him know you are counting the days until you can see him again assuring him that you will have plenty of bags on hand for him to use for his next haul. Preposterous? Or not at all?

But it does make it harder to participate in anything when the ground keeps shifting and the lines keep moving and the reward/punishment is unknown. Yet people keep playing. Are they very brave?

What's the magic line or set of circumstances that confers "special" on someone and gives him/her carte blanche while others not so fortunate are given no leeway at all? Is there a guide to that? Who's OK and who isn't? What's OK and what isn't? Who sez so and who doesn't?

Would you hang in under those circumstances for the good of your country? For how long?

Especially if it were a meeting with an "adversary" although I cannot remember ever being in such a meeting. But in governments everywhere there are probably countless meetings with adversaries. The more notes taken the better. And then you distribute memos of what occurred to other interested parties. No secret stuff. Secret stuff means you have something to hide. Secret stuff going on with an adversary that is unknown to your own side is very suspicious. less

Genius is more intelligent than us regular folks and therefore more capable of being kind. What do you say and why?

Thousands of years there was no electricity and people managed to survive. Could we suvive again? People would die of course. Those on life support that requires electricity. I just wonder how much damage would occur initially until we figured out a way to survive it. I'm old enough to remember ice boxes and fan. No refrigerator. No air conditioning. It's better now. Maybe we'll find out how tough we are. I hope not but ya never know! :) less

If the internet goes down and stays down for days what would be affected? Would the damage be permanent or fixable? If a power grid does down how do we operate without electricity or power? I wonder if "the enemy" is currently working on it.

That way they will have access to all our secret stuff first hand. SIGH. Another thing to worry about. Do you?

Water was calm when they went in but 60 mile winds came up while on the water. Very sad. https://www.nytimes.com/2018/07/19/us/branson-boat-capsize-missouri.html

These are not my normal stomping grounds but I did enjoy a bit of culture vulturing and have got a taste for it.. What made me think of this is that there is apparently a Netflix like subscription thingy to an Arts based on demand thingy.. Marquee tv.. I wondered if anyone had ever heard of it, or tried it - it's apparently available in the US and Canada too. less

But if anyone challenges or takes exception to it they get all whiny hissy fitty accusatory. Why is that? Are they brain-challenged? What's going on with them that they accept and sypport all his sh** but get incensed when anyone dares return any of it? Anyone know?

He has finally acknowledged it and wants Putin to know how very grateful he is for doing that. In return Comrade Bonespur will be the ever-faithful loyal puppetclown useful idiot he was born to be. Everyone wins. Putin gets the worldwide acknowledgement of his essential crucial significant role in this and Comrade Bonespur gets to be the puppet clown he was always meant to be servicing a strong tough manly man. Something Bonespur wishes he were but knows he isn't. Isn't that sweet? less

The current Congress is useless. The check and balance they are supposed do is MIAFire all their a**es. Senators are more sensible . Let's let him show his stuff. See what happens. What could it hurt?
