Jesus, that website is depressing.

But in truth not as depressing as Tuckie's website hawking t-shirts with Kid Rock on them.

Does no one just ride off and fade into the sunset gracefully like Jimmy Carter any more?

Re: The Lurker says...

I was sorta expecting something Dylanesque, but the Lurker being the the Lurker, it sounds more Suessian. Oh how do I keep from owning my shit Or for my party, who's made things so dire? Something cryptic, let's see, oh yes, now I've got it! I'll keep repeating Yeats' widening gyre! Thus rhymeth The...

Re: The Lurker says...

Can I be blunt? I don't think it hurts you that I don't think of you at all. Rather, I think it hurts you that I don't want to play, that I don't want to feed your obsession or provide the dopamine rush you get from the surge of self-righteousness at political confrontation. I understand, at this p...

So if you're wondering about the relevance of this post to yours, then that makes us even, I guess. But I thought you had read the Fountainhead? Oh well.

Re: The Lurker says...

Funny you should bring him up. I was visiting the Sondern-Adler House with a prospective buyer on Friday afternoon. I told him the FLW story that was told to me by former Taliesin manservant/cult member and KU Prof Curtis Besinger. Mr Besinger was a good dude, one of my favorites at Marvin Hall. He ...

So I am driving to a site to look at a building for a dude. It's a neighborhood I spent time running around in my youth.A bit sketchy but some cool old homes near Roanoke Park.

Re: Charges

I guess going to court is a harsh reality check.... While this falls far short of the punishment he deserves, there was considerable satisfaction to be gained from reports that Donald Trump spent much of the first week of his first criminal trial sitting in silence listening to mean tweets about him...

Re: 2024

Because this pathological liar feels compelled to lie even about things that don't really matter to anyone but their fragile ego. Former President Donald Trump is a famed exaggerator of the size of his crowds. For years, he has lied about how many supporters attended his presidential inauguration an...

Mich and Oussie, let me just say that your depth of knowledge of this subject is something to behold. I want to go grab a beer; but please, please, continue.

The Lurker just texted me. He compared this to the KU vs KSU football games from the 1980's, sans helmets.

If the rubes have any money left after DJT stock tanks, I could see them buying these next if trumpty plumpty went all in on the promotion. Dear (former, best ever) President Donald Trump, We’ve had our disagreements over the years, some of them pretty bigly. But if there’s one important lesson you’...

Re: Evil Rich People

The DJT stock bounced back! well sort of. But the most goodest news is that trumpty plumpty is going to get an "earnout" bonus of 36 million shares due to stock performance. Yes you heard that right. The stock has lost 53% of it's "value" in its first 20 days of trading. It dropp...
