  1. I like that she always checks with her guest to make sure that the long lead in did for them was factually correct. It drove me bonkers this morning that Joe seized on the <<<EPA>>>> being the big bad GOVERNMENT agency that was at fault for poisoning Flint's water. I can think of four other groups that had closer interaction with the actual water that I would blame even before the Governor. Detroit Water (I keep hearing weird things about how more expensive the water was going to be then I hear not) Emergency manager for selling off the connecting pipe. Flint Public Works - the manager, the water supply superintendent, any engineer, the water plant operators, etc. The labs that test the water - they have to do grab samples and the lab technician that read the results of the lady that screamed the loudest about the water quality But no, to Joe, its all about EPA, like there are no other local City or State people who are afraid of losing their jobs.
  2. I like the fact that she doesn't just say - "It will be great" There is meat, sinew and veins on that bone she has.
  3. A Tennessee HS cancelled their basketball season because of hazing that involved rape. http://http://espn.go.com/espn/story/_/id/14520526/tennessee-high-school-cancels-basketball-season-rape-charges
  4. They also had a lurve fest over Peggy Noonan's Op-Ed that praises the GOP mess and calls Clinton a queen that deigns to select who could interview her. Eugene Robinson was the only one to say the Emperor had no clothes. What a mess.
  5. There has always been something about that guy that has set off that part of my lizard brain. "Don't Trust Him!" I don't get how nobody else goes running to the hills when the guy starts talking.
  6. It bothered me all week that the pundits forced Obama to make a speech to calm a frightened America about how we are going to combat ISIS. It makes me think that we are scared shaking children who needs daddy to reassure them about the scary monsters out there. I woke up this morning to one Repub candidate after another blathering on about stuff they don't know. I was done and went to catch up on my Warriors.
  7. He wants Obama to go off the deep end and start rounding up people who have funny names and look different. It makes people FEEL better. It doesn't help in the long run, but FEELINGS are better than logic.
  8. Of course we still need to raise the retirement age to 70. Everyone should work until they're 70. Doesn't matter if the body has already broken down.
  9. I would probably never even agree with Rubio on even the weather, but you can make good money as a welder. It is one of those jobs that are harder to ship overseas. It will take a toll on the body though.
  10. The chyron for that bit was funny - "George Bush on John Meacham's new book" - Why would George Bush talk about....oooh. Oops.
  11. So, they can't deflect a hostile question and go to their talking point? Heavens, how can the expect to stand up to PUTIN!!!
  12. My guilty pleasure is Naked and Afraid, don't hate. After watching a bunch of those episodes, you understand how critical food, fire and water are to one's survival. Within an hour of her chatting to herself (without water), Simmons would have done the inner monologue. Depending on when she ate lunch, she'd start looking for food within 6 hours. Definitely stumbling, crawling and hallucinations within 36 -48 hours without food or water. It was nice that the water she stumbled upon wasn't stagnant and didn't have bugs that ripped her insides to shreds. It also have something that she could eat that wasn't poisonous to her. Other than that and the blue filter, I had fun.
  13. Every now and then, Jessica reminds me of a lady I had to work with who was from Hong Kong. Jessica is much less abrasive.
  14. I actually ate at one of the restaurants he ate at! The moment they showed the Buddhist Temple, I knew exactly where they were. Squee. J-Town is slowly being taken over by the hipsters, but it is a great place to get old school Japanese food. Minato's isn't known for its sushi menu (I think they only make three types of rolls), but good food at a decent price. I don't think that was brown gravy on Tony's plate , I'm pretty sure it was the curry plate. Fairly mild curry, but it doesn't like me.
  15. I like the Okinawan version of bull fighting. In a not-Okiniwan city, they put an image of the bullfighitng on a manhole cover. I can't find it right now.
  16. That is the part that bugs me. Surgery is messy and gory, but for the med staff it is normal. I think talking about poop treatment plants is normal stuff you talk when eating lunch. Some people don't want to know how the sausage is made.
  17. I made it to the part where Joe thought the Justice Department was covering for Clinton and that it set a bad precedence. The Bush years never happened?
  18. When they kept getting the "we're from NY, we're hustlers and we can sell anything" cut, I figured their time was coming up.
  19. My mom did a tour out to Sedona and the Grand Canyon. It included the pink jeep trip. She loved it.
  20. This pisses me off every night. I even FF through the parts where they talk about his "impact". What does Joe know about being a reporter? Ramos isn't a reporter? Kasie was having none of Joe's BS this morning.
  21. She built a better temporary shelter than most of the other groups that decided to stay in one place. Really interested in the groups where the multiple women sit around and bake in the heat without actually building anything.
  22. Schwarz Muzik? Is that what the Germans really call it?
  23. That one will be really interesting. Most of the pairs barely made it out of there and coasted the last couple of days on body fat. After 40 days, they would tap out or carried out.
