You shouldn't call a senior judge "Hon". It's unseemly.

My German friend's granddad was a general in WW2. He hated Hitler and the Nazi Party but was all like "my country, right or wrong". My friend is still so ashamed of his granddad that he used to pretend to be quarter-Jewish to cover it up.

So a "News" channel has nine hours out of 24 each day that is actually "News". That's awesome! Filter out the reverse mortgage and gold buying adds, along with when they bring their "opinion" guys on to "news" shows to blather, and it's probably more like 15 minutes of actual news each day.

Lines like this are why I subscribe. Thanks for that laugh Evan.

I can't disagree with his cynicism, and I'm not posing either.

Squee! Adorable! Fun/not so fun facts: Opossums are the only mammal that never stops growing, which is probably one reason why the poor things only live about 2 years in the wild.

Well, okay... but that doesn't exactly present a solution. Maybe along with your cynicism you're still sufficiently comfortable that this mess doesn't touch you directly. Maybe you won't be one of the first people whose internet access Ajit Pai yanks. But some people can't really afford to live like that.

Yes, well if 15 minutes of made up and spun stuff can be called news.

Like doctors and dentists, no matter how lousy they are you cant get them to just say, "yea, that guy sucks".
