Boss Hogg has more credibility.

James Comer displays all the hallmarks of genius normally found in a feces-and-marmalade handprint seven inches off the floor on the wall of a nursery.

I worked with a bunch of former Compaq people in early/mid-‘00s.

None of them could come up with a reasonable rationale for HP buying Compaq (aka Fiorina’s Folly).

"Dude put $100 million into his own campaign and lost..."

Dude almost certainly has a way of recouping that money through insurance, wagers or some other kind of billionaire scam that the peasants know nothing of.

Besides the fact that Compaq made better computers? I mean, a better question would be why HP went into the PC market in the first place. I bet Tektronix was giggling over on the sidelines.

Well, HP was already well established in the PC market at that time.

He was involved in a coup attempt with the man he calls "disloyal." Gee, you think?

They still like their private jets, too.

Yeah, let's grossly overpay for a PC company, at peak valuation, just as IBM (the smarter company) was getting out of the PC biz. But later on they also stepped in it big time by buying Autonomy (software company) and then discovering it was a load of rubbish.

"Bass Set To Kick Ass"

Yep. I wanted him out after that, but it was early in his term. Of course, everything he did after that just underscored how unfit he was for that office. Don't know a ton about Luna, but there was no way I was gonna vote for Villanueva.

The Ace of Bass beat the Deuce of Caruso.

Considering all the sneaky laws that let real estate developers reap crap tons of money and give nothing back? I would say there is probably a large share of assholes among them.

I think we need to give more credence to green space and how to incorporate it wisely. All the development around me go right up to the side walk with barely space for a flower bed. It's depressing as hell compared to older development with lawns that let people congregate and enjoy the outside.
