I am sure Trump will chime in on the invasion but his condemnation of Putin will be short and wishey washey. I think Trumps only regret about the invasion is that Putin might be too busy in the Ukraine to help him steal the next election. Cheers and happy weekend! less

They might of done that so that if they start losing the war or other countries interfere they will use Chernobyl as a scorched earth policy and set off a giant dirty bomb. And it will likely be the hostages that set off the bomb because Russia will find their relatives and let the hostages know that they will be killed if they don't set off the bomb. The only thing that might prevent that from happening is Russia's love for their wild strawberries - Russians must know that setting off a dirty bomb that close to Russia will destroy their wild strawberries and they are the pride of Russia.

He also said Putin was very savvy for describing his troops aligned on the Ukrainian border as peacekeepers. Then Trump added "now Putin is going to go in and be a peacekeeper that’s the strongest peace force I’ve ever seen - there were more army tanks than I’ve ever seen. They’re going to keep peace, all right. No, but think of it. Here’s a guy who’s very savvy.” The extra crappy part about all that is Trump said that on Americas Presidents' Day - he praised a dictator and his army on Americas Presidents' Day. Cheers! less

During the evenings conversation my wife mentioned that her father built the Sydney Opera House and he is now President of carpenters union in Windsor. The guy said BS his father is the President of the carpenters union in Windsor. After 5 minutes of heated arguing it turned out that they were both right - his father was president of the finishing carpenters union in Windsor and my wife's father was the president of the framing carpenters union in Windsor.

My neighbor and I were discussing this. He went in to his general practitioner for an insect bite because he’s allergic to certain venoms. When he was being treated, they opened a new 1-ounce tube of 1% hydrocortisone and put a dab of it on the bite area, but when he went home, they didn’t give him the tube.
His after-care instructions included application of 1% hydrocortisone for the next couple of weeks, so on the way home, he bought a 1-ounce tube of it from a drug store/pharmacy. Now about ten or twelve days later, the doctor’s bill has come in. The portion of it that was not covered by insurance is asking him to pay more than $37 for “hospital-grade” 1% hydrocortisone in a 1-ounce tube. The drug store/pharmacy charged just over $5 plus tax for the exact same thing. He called the doctor’s office, they said he was supposed to have been given the tube that they opened, but if he really didn’t... less
