If the hydromethane on the ocean floor melts (bubbles are rising already in some places), we're screwed.

A Bejoran perhaps, but she'd have to live in the shed. There's no room in the house.

The highway cuts through the hills and is relatively straight, the back way follows the ridges and winds like a snake with a broken back.  

I don't have a spare room, the place is crowded already. Legal or not, alien or not, I'd need to hang anybody extra from a hook in the ceiling.

Nope. Those places usually have a "no pets" rule and generally have dozens of other persnickety rules as well. I would never live in an area with a HOA, same reason.

I was University champion, a VERY long time ago. We played international competition rules.

Doesn't matter, by the rules you can have half a dozen queens if you promote enough pawns. In practice, I've never seen more than three.

I read it as meaning they were both pointed at the same square. No two pieces can occupy the same square regardless of what they are.

No two pieces can occupy the same square regardless of what they are. However, one bishop can travel on/attack the white squares, the other only the black, as both move diagonally and start on a different coloured square. Unless you promote a pawn by moving it the length of the board, in which you can make it a bishop and it will occupy diagonals of the same colour as the ultimate square - but I never heard of anyone actually doing that, the defaults are queen or at a pinch, knight.  less

English Classic rock (Pink Floyd, Queen, the Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple ...)

Unless you promoted a pawn that way, it's impossible. If you did, WHY?

Grilled cheese and Vegemite, which works a lot better than you probably think.

Element 99 might sue for trademark infringement, he owns that number as an AM handle.

Japanese. The school I went to stopped offering it as an elective just before I started eighth grade. Never had much of an opportunity to pick it up again.

They should build one of those at Coober Pedy. I drive a Subaru Outback, I could park behind another one in the rear carpark - so I'd have an Outback out back of an Outback, out back of the Outback in the outback.

Different rules than for impeachment, a simple majority is all that is needed for this one - and as of right now the Democrats have that, even WITHOUT a casting vote from Kamala. The Democrats actually gained a Senate seat at the midterms, have you forgotten that?

Yet all of the Confederates got off Scot free. They should have built a gallows for Robert E Lee and Jefferson Davis, not put up statues of them.

There are two, and both of them were named John - John Kimble in Kindergarten Cop, and John Keating in Dead Poets Society.

Screwed, blued and tattooed, darling. As usual, Trumpicans will continue to excuse all sorts of behaviour (bigotry, racism, misogyny and outright treason etc) but you have completely failed to provide ANY alternative interpretation of the 14th which clears him.

Trump has also stated, publicly,  that if re-elected he will pardon all of those involved - so that nails it down. Slam dunk, offering comfort to persons guilty of sedition.

Stewart Rhodes jailed for 18 years for sedition. How does this affect His Royal Orangeness?

He still hasn't forgiven me for "The Great Vegemite Caper". It was a practical JOKE, dude.

Given that The People's Temple Agricultural Project declared itself a sovereign state, I'll go with Jonestown.

Killer Tomatoes failed so badly as a horror that it succeeded as a comedy. It actually wasn't supposed to be.

Too much money.

Neglectful. My son has custody of his kids because their mother was neglecting them.

So? A lot of women think he's attractive, certainly more so than her husband. Then again, the Loch Ness Monster is more attractive than her husband.

Sometimes. The Beach Boys, Vanilla Ice and Kid Rock infuriated me by rank plagiarism.

So "framing" somebody who is NOT YET President is treason, but ACTIVELY ATTEMPTING TO PREVENT THE PEACEFUL TRANSITION OF POWER TO A DEMOCRATICALLY ELECTED President by stirring up a lynch mob IS NOT.Riiiiiiiiiiight ...

When you're one of seven kids, you have to be noisy to be noticed. I'm also extremely extroverted.

The interview tapes were NOT classified.

The only thing I know about mermaids is that they all have C cup breasts. That's why they wear C shells.

Insecure, childish and demented.

Wrong, he told Raffensperger to find extra votes for him that didn't exist - in effect, to falsify the returns.

The real "crime" regarding the election (apart from Jan 6 which according to the Fourteenth ABSOLUTELY disqualifies him from running again) is his attempt to put a hammer lock on Raffensperger.

You do have to say it, TO someone, WHILE in office. You can't just do it by thinking it. The man is also a kleptomaniac. Or a toddler - "I want it, so it's mine". That kind of behaviour isn't to be tolerated in a two-year-old, never mind from a grandfather.

The key words are "do you think". Danilo isn't accusing the scientists of dishonesty, m2c is with her "follow the money" comment. Accusing them of accepting bribes (actually the deniers are doing that, from Big Oil).

How does this differ from Trump's firing of Comey and the AG?Oh, that's right, they were investigating him personally, not any of his pestilential brood. And the DoJ hasn't actually fired anybody.

The NRA is a terrorist organisation and should be recognised as such.

4. Belligerent nationalism and racism is His Royal Orangeness's TRADEMARK!

Fascism is far right by definition and Trump is one. The antithesis of communism. Both are wrong.

Biden is centre right, like most Dems - there is ONE left wing politician in Congress and he is regarded as a maverick - Bernie. Of course, they are to the left of Trump but so is everybody including Mussolini.

"10% for the Big Guy" could just as easily refer to tithing. Lots of folks pay lip service to their faith by making financial contributions to a church while behaving in a way that contravenes its teaching. More than a few of them are Republicans.

Hunter is a grown man and not his father's puppet (neither has Joe put him on the government payroll, UNLIKE his predecessor did with his brood). Is he corrupt? Probably.

Does this implicate his father? No.I'm not a fan of Biden, he's a stuffed shirt. A career politician and at least as senile as Trump. But the fact that he's NOT a megalomaniac who has built a personality cult around himself has me sleeping a little more comfortably.
