Why? Were they fightin' a war? When I was hemming and hawing whether the weather was too much for me to fly, General Yeager would finally make it clear it was too much that day: "You're not fightin' a war!" In other words, you don't have to fly today so don't.
My plane is stressed for 15 kts crosswind. I'm, however, stressed for 7 or 8.

I will recommend anything I want and Ugo there can stomp his feet and throw a temper tantrum. He is not the boss of us.

You should, for example, read my books.

Many hobbits are embracing extremist rhetoric and promote hateful ideology which claims they have a right to exist

I bring home a trapped coyote and let it loose in the kitchen.

Hackles up. Teeth bared. Pissing on the floor.

My wife says, "Get it out."

I tell her that is a very unwelcoming and unchristian way to speak about a future house pet.

The children back into the hallway.

I tell them it's a rescue.
I tell them fences are fear.
I tell them cages are barbaric.
I tell them the old rules were cruel.
I tell them it will domesticate in time.

Then I grab my lunchbox and leave them to live with my principles.

When I get home, there is blood on the floor, and the experts who sold me on compassion are already explaining why nobody could have seen this coming.

Anyway, that's Western migration policy.

Every report now confirming President Trump’s outrage over vandals cutting a gash into the Reflecting Pool with a knife or razor overnight June 8 is just catching up to my exclusive. I’m the only one who has photos of the damage. See here:

BREAKING: The Supreme Court has decided that Hawaii's law barring gun owners with concealed-carry permits from bringing their guns on to private property unless they have affirmative permission from the owner is unconconstitutional.

In a 6-3 Decision, SCOUTS has decided the law infringed on Second Amendment rights in Wolford v. Lopez

@cicero_mn Does the Strib even hire writers anymore? That caption is awkward trash.

During the filming of space opera “Star Wars” in Tunisia, Libya mistakes “sandcrawler” vehicles for military tanks, and Muammar Gaddafi threatens to bomb the set unless the vehicles are removed.

George Lucas agrees to move the vehicles to a more distant location.

My eight-year-old just started asking me about the guillotine in detail. What is it? Who used it? Was it exported out of France? Eventually, I asked him where he’d learned that the guillotine even existed.

“Tom and Jerry.”

Minnesota journalism group gives top award to woman facing charges in connection to Cities Church invasion

The indictment alleges Georgia Fort met with leaders of the disruption "for a pre-op briefing" at a "shopping center," which included "instruction on how the operation would be conducted once they arrived at the Church."

"Once at the Church, all of the defendants entered the Church to conduct a takeover-style attack," the complaint alleges.

I’m sorry but did the good Major say he was shot NINETEEN TIMES in his career?

He did say NINETEEN did he not?

Simply cannot bend my mind to that. 🤯

[Victor Davis Hanson @VDHanson]

As a general rule, anytime Barack Obama lectures the country or its people on their purported sins—with Khalil Gibran pop platitudes—he is seeking absolution for his own obsessions by projecting his own guilty desires onto others.

The latest? At the dedication of his narcissistic Obama Presidential Center in Chicago—a $850 million flak-tower, monolithic boondoggle mired in debt—Obama lectured us on the need to resist the allure off "money, attention, [and] fame."

Thus spoke the owner of four homes, three of them multimillion-dollar mansions, whose last inert year in office was spent closing book and Netflix deals that ensured he would become a multimillionaire the moment he left office, and on spec, jets private to sermonize to various audiences–often at $400,000 a shot—on their own false-consciousness shortcomings.

Plain-speaking, frugal Harry Truman in obscure retirement in Independence, Missouri Obama certainly is not.

@billglahn So I guess the. NExt step is to monitor these people and make sure they serve their full sentence.
