I am definitely not a fan. I put it in the same category as everyone High 10ing everyone on the team in all ladies' college sports after they complete a play or whatever. When I paused on an SEC Gymnastics match it took the team longer to give everyone a High 10 after each routine was completed by the gymnast, than it did for the gymnast to complete the actual routine.
Pizza is underrated. I’ll put great pizza and red wine against any high end steak or seafood dish and wine pairing. The “problem” is you can get so much pretty good pizza for cheap, it’s hard to get great pizza outside of pretty large population centers. I still love pretty good pizza, but man I’d love to have ready access to great pizza.
We are all evil. You are just the vehicle that keeps us that way.
I find 2 Brothers equivalent to Dave’s Darkhorse. Both dumps with over-rated food and waitresses.
Doesn’t have anything to do with being on the wrong side of history in my opinion. China has done a good job of mixing authoritarian govt and industrial policy with just enough economic freedom to make progress. But they doomed themselves with the one child policy. Such an obviously catastrophic move, even without the benefit of hindsight. That’s why it’s so hard to compete with authoritarianism. So many opportunities to make one stupid decision and impose it across an entire country.
I’m not one to bash on Ruth’s Chris, but I’ve had better, particularly if you get a place with good aged steaks. But it’s done a great job of maintaining good consistency and value as it’s turned into a big chain. Been to many more places worse than better.
Concur, China is zero military threat to the US or our allies, anyone who says different watches too much FNC. I don't even think they'll try to invade Taiwan. I do wish we'd move more China manufacturing to Mexico though.
Haha, what now?
Hey man, meaning more nationally in the US House and Senate and Bush's 41 and 43. That's not a knock against Ds, I admire it.
This! When a republican wins an election, he or she is “in office.” When a democrat wins, he/she/it/they are “in power.”
China is zero threat to invade the US, but are a major threat in their region. If they decided to invade Taiwan, it would be very difficult and they would take heavy losses, but we would not be able to do much, and once they actually manage landfall and take over, it's over. Taiwan would not manage a resistance like Ukraine. I am convinced that Chinese espionage has so thoroughly infiltrated our defense contractors, supply chain, and such, that we would be lucky to even get a shot off at them.
I agree and understand. But China depends on the US and west to buy cheap junk made in their factories. Much of their economy depends on it. I just can't see them jeopardizing that and risking boycotts, etc.
I wonder if 50 years from know, historians will look back on COVID and determine if it caused the end of most small to average sized congregations in America? For the most part religion has been dead in Europe for decades. Eventually we will get to a point where there are only a few small, hard core, "Pentecostal" type churches and "feel good" mega churches left.
