Aint No Right

Soooo, apparently John Kelly and John Bolton had a shouting match outside the oval office yesterday. I wonder who will ultimately be top dog there.

I think Sessions will be next, after the mid-terms (assuming DT can restrain himself until then).

I am happy to report that the acupuncture is working for the pain :bigrin: (although I was left with a painless purple bruise about the size of a quarter after one session). I have been going to physical therapy as well. My right side is at about 80% mobility. My left is still pretty stiff - maybe 4...

I saw the first episode of The Haunting of Hill House (netflix). It was pretty good. I was surprised since I thought the trailer was only so-so.

FYI: I will not be organizing or participating in this year's Secret Santa. The reindeer reins are up for grabs.

(I know it's early but someone mentioned Secret Santa in another thread.)

Okay people - get back in your respective corners and chill. I realize everyone is a little on edge, but today's President Alert was only a test.

Perhaps we can do another internethon for donations?

I haven't been able to get past the 2nd episode of Ozark. I have been watching this season's American Horror Story: Apocalypse. I really like this season (8). I watched all of the first four seasons, but then lost interest. (I only watched the first episode of season 5, the first episode of season 6...

"My people" are voting in a name-change referendum today. I was born and raised in Canada and never really got into the debate about who are the true Macedonians. Greeks will say the Macedonians are actually Slavs, blahblahblah. My mothe, born in Skopje, doesn't agree with being called 'North Maced...

This exchange early in the hearing made me laugh:

Just based on the testimonies of each Dr. Ford seemed more believable. Dr. Ford came across as sincere and humble. Mr. Snarly acted like an entitled, aggrieved, petulant child. I realized someone can get stressed out when falsely accused of something, but his behavior during yesterday's judiciary he...

BK on a break now. I guess he has to pee after all that water he drank. He's going to have a breakdown soon. I hope he doesn't do anything drastic in the men's room.

I hope they don't let him come back out. For everyone else's sake as well as his own.

So after a 45 minute train wreck of an opening statement, and approximately 15 minutes of questions where at one point he summarily stated "we drank beer" ad nauseam, he needed a break.

I didn't get to see Dr. Ford's opening statement or much of the 1st half of these hearings. I just sat unmoved through Kavanaugh's cringeworthy, blubbering statement. Dear God. He sounded like a twelve year old. I can't wait for the questioning.

Michael Avenatti unlocked his Twitter account; he said he shut it down because he was being trolled.
