George Martin has said that if the Beatles hadn't replace Best with Ringo, he would have been bringing in a session drummer for their first album.

For those saying there are no illegal orders, I suggest you look up Lt. William Calley and a little place called My Lai in Vietnam.

If they went back to the great days of the 80s where they were all coked up like Darryl Strawberry, I'd be fine with that too.

Not just Trump. The GOP and most of the online MAGAsphere are fighting a war on women. Hence the anti-abortion laws that negatively impact women's health.
The GOP wants women barefoot, pregnant, and in the kitchen.

Just out of curiosity, what actual difference does it make whether a degree is considered "professional"? Loan treatment? Pay differences?

The NBA is in the worst shape its been in since Larry Bird and Magic Johnson entered the league. No defense, just a bunch of boring open 3 pointers. A bunch of dead ass "stars" taking every other night off. What a shitty product the NBA is now.

That's what you call a competitive league. As long as the Patriots don't win it, I'm happy.

Except it is clear that Trump colluded with Russia. He wouldn't have had to fire Jeff Sessions and Bring in Bill Barr to obstruct Justice and shut down Robert Mueller if he was innocent.

Boy, she really hates the Frenchies. I really hope she loses the lawsuit the French brought against her. We need more of those right wing idiots to become broke.

"The Art of the Deal".
Apparently that art is handing off the actual negotiating to others while you go fishing around for bribes, kickbacks, and other corruption opportunities.

The notion that policy has shit all to do with modern elections is quaint. It's like people believe voters are like Sarah Longwell rather than the dumbasses who have given us Donald Trump and Marjorie Taylor Green.

The people robbing Haiti are usually the leaders of Haiti, whether they are elected or take control by force. It's been that way since they elected the Duvaliers. The record of self government by the Haitian people is pretty atrocious.

That's good/lucky for him. With the Braves he was a Hall of Famer and a World Series winner.
With the Mets he was just another loser, as the Mets have been for most of the Franchises existence. There has just been an aura of stink around the Mets since they were founded.

Absolutely no chance. Look at assholes like Elon Musk. He will insist on scooping up all the "wealth" generated.

I have just been amazed that Blizzard, for example, seems to get Devs who have no idea about the genre of games they are developing. Diablo, for example, has been put together by MMORPG and RTS developers for the last decade and a half.

It was vague, but no where was anybody referring to the Talking Heads. You made up that reference all on your own. Which is weird, because you'd clearly heard of the Tom Tom Club.

Yes, I know it was Tom Tom club. Tina and Chris' band. Talking Heads wasn't mentioned by me, or by the post I was responding to.
