@deedydas Comports with my experience learning Japanese in my 40s. Could never keep up until I learned not to pay so much attention to the honorifics and indirect locutions. OTH, emperors speak really slowly in public.

@LatticedJennaly @joshtpm I remember when he was a Republican lawyer getting booted from the Nixon admin. for trying to enforce civil rights laws. His performance as Clinton's 2nd CoS really turned things around.

@Nolan_Mc 1966 MD gubernatorial primary, won by the segregationist candidate (GP Mahoney) with just over 30% of the vote, because the non-segregationists couldn't coordinate. The general went R, with Your Kind of Man, Ted Agnew.

@MattGlassman312 @RepDidech When I worked for the state of Illinois, Washington's Birthday followed the 3rd-Monday dating whereas Lincoln's Birthday was always 2/12. Once in a blue moon, we'd get a 4-day weekend.

@unusual_whales I don't see any negative numbers. Is there a reporting bias in which only positive returns count?
