Somehow hearing of it relatively late makes the loss worse to me.Did you have a favorite line/bit he did?

The person in front is waiting, merchandise in hand possibly ... They arrive at the counter to be served, the attendant sorts and totals and says that will be X dollars.Then, and only then does the customer start digging in their bag for their money!This pees me off no end ... Why the bleeding hell can't they use the time spent waiting to be prepared? End of Rant ... You can all move on now. less

Suspected of who knows what because of who knows why? Shouldn't people have the right to face their accuser and KNOW of what they are being accused? Hilllary does get special treatment from Comey. He accords Russia and Trump much more respect. One wonders why?
They say whatever can be conceived can be achieved. That thinking makes it so. That you call into your life what you spend time thinking about! What if all of that were true?

No disrespect to other sections of the US. I'm kinda partial to the sound of the south. Then you have the Brits, the French, the Italians...others too. It tickles the ear and soothes and excites and invites. I have no idea if our American accents thrill anyone. I mean west coast is not really definable. Many of us are transplants from somewhere else so how we sound is a pot pourri of everywhere. East coast can be rather more definite and sometimes is. North? Well the accent in the movie FARGO was awesome. Do people really talk that way up there or was it exaggerated?

You are what you believe and you believe what your group/party believes and you melt into that and act as part of the whole. You disappear so you don't make waves/stand out/disagree. Individuals used to be heralded/celebrated/honored. Now? Well few dare to see what happens when they refuse to be swallowed up by an ideology. There are closet individuals here and there of course. There always will be. But the group rules. The ideology runs everything. SIGH. less
