Re: Daily "Check In" Thread For Us

Oh, I didn't let you guys know... I actually ended up returning the 14" MacBook Pro and opting for the 16" variety. I was wrong... I missed having a bigger screen. Sure, it's less portable, so either way you're compromising in one dimension or another, but this a great little powerhouse: ...

Re: Daily "Check In" Thread For Us

In my hometown it's actually been unseasonably cold and rainy. It was hot for a few days, like spring/summer had arrived in force, but now it's colder and wetter than it was in March. It's much needed though, as our province has been experiencing a lot of wildfires along with the associated smoke. ...

But providentially will not rain on the Washington D.C. waste of money parade?

Conclusion: 10. Now comes the strategic phase. It’s obvious that the U.S. and Israel are playing **good cop, bad cop** with Iran. Israel strikes.

That Israel was able to do all they did shows what a mismatch it is between Iran and Israel. Israel can count on different forms of powerful backing from the United States. What effective support does Iran have from anywhere? While not exactly the US’s counterpart, Iran *is* the support. It *is* th...

When a terrorist state keeps trying to kill you while chanting "Death to America" and "Death to Israel", you either do something about it
