I'd have preferred marking the closed file "Patient Attendance Autonomously Suspended".

I own / live on a few hundred acres in ~central NY State. No mortgage, no lien, BUT ! I investigated bequeathing it back to the aboriginals whose ancestors occupied it. BUT ! It appears I can bequeath ownership but NOT sovereignty. If I did hand it over to a "tribe", they (the new owners) would...

I haven't paid enough attention over the generations to have known that, but if you say so ... The comment worth addressing: "how fraudulent Israel is?" Critics of Balfour may extend their attitude to present day Israel. I'm not so sure. The United States of America occupies the lower 48...

Guys our age can relate first-hand to the "shade tree mechanic". Cars were so shockingly simple in the '50's & '60's improvising was part of the culture. Don't have a feeler gauge to gap the points on a "points / plugs / condenser" tune-up? (remember that?) No feeler gauge? Use a matchbook cover...

Without much if any logical justification I liked doctors / senators Paul. Problem is the Paul family interpretation / application of "conservatism" may mystify genuine conservatives. Making life difficult for Dr. Anthony Fauci is an automatic demerit. Thank you for your impressive public...

J.C. !

And the amusement of this is not merely that - the president made a mistake! - but that Trump dropped a cultural reference, perhaps to demonstrate that despite living in the presidential bubble, he's still "with it", and can rattle off a hip reference. Bolo

U.S. and Saudi Arabia launch strikes against Iran-backed militias in Iraq The fighting flared after the U.S and Iran had experienced a period of calm, during which neither announced attacks for about three days. Allies shrug as US pushes for Strait of Hormuz patrol The Trump administration is...

In general your observation is easy enough to corroborate. None the less there are historic accounts that indicate the U.S. resisted entering War. FDR entering WWII has been cited as an example. This assertion presents "US government" as a static monolith. It isn't. Such decision-making...

correction: sear previously posted The correct wording is: "... Evidence the Cold War is [not] quite as "over" as we had wished to believe?" s #361 Please pardon my omission.

Almost certainly. Even if there are a few exceptions, it wouldn't make sense for a citizen that is deeply emotionally devoted to his culture / nation / People to go on an indiscriminate murder spree against them. Either way: wouldn't education / training in coping skills help reduce these...

Considering the trivia that have derailed more capable politicians, Trump's alarming style seems to protect him. The 2004 presidential campaign of Democrat Howard Dean MD was summarily dismissed after Dean expressed enthusiasm with a vocal cheer* on camera. BUT ! Trump squanders $12 $Million...

You know yours is a view that's marginalized outside Russia's own borders. My somewhat more conventional / majority view * is the David & Goliath view. President Zelenskyy's rightness or wrongness aside, the People of Ukraine demonstrate their convictions on the battlefield. I'm no huge fan of...

The definitions seems sensible to me. Are they genuine computer generated / A.I. translations? Not to sprinkle on the parade, but the news of Trump's manifold deficiencies was prominent before he televised the escalator ride. That means, old news. A.I. is the newer story, and at this stage, the...
