On “One More Discussion About Guns

Mike nice post. If you ever get out Oklahoma way you need to check out the J..M. Davis Arms & Historical Museum in Claremore, OK. I am not a gun person by any stretch but fascinating place.

On “A Belated Post on the Passing of Merle Haggard

Thank you for a great post @mike-dwyer Merle's passing was covered here in Oklahoma extensively, not surprising as he has Oklahoma roots. Bowie, Merle and Prince.....my childhood going away

On ““The Jungle Book” Movie Review

Baloo always bugged me I did not think there were big bears in India. He looks like a some North American bear. In this movie they called him a sloth bear but he doesn't look like a sloth bear

On “Congress Doesn’t Get Encryption Either

FBI paid over 1.3 million for Iphone hack

On “I’m done – Kira Hall speaks out on the context of sexual assault

@Maribou I saw you post this on FB thank you for this

On “Weekend!

One of our dogs is a chewer rope toys last all of 10 min. has a kong but plays with it not chews it. He found a new favorite chew toy a 6" PVC pipe joint. So far so good they can't seem to get any pieces off of it though it is gouged up a bit

On “Breitbart Rolls Over After Reporter ‘Grabbed’ by Trump Aide – The Daily Beast

"The statement was issued in the wee hours of Wednesday morning but remains Breitbart’s official comment on the matter, hours after sources said Lewandowski acknowledged to Breitbart’s Washington political editor, Matthew Boyle, that he did manhandle Fields.

Lewandowski’s explanation to Boyle, said these sources, was that he and Fields had never met before and that he didn’t recognize her as a Breitbart reporter, instead mistaking her for an adversarial member of the mainstream media."

So am I wrong in reading this as - we sorry since you are on our team but fish any one from outside our team we will manhandle them all we like and be proud of it?

On “A Raising of the Glass & The Changing of the Guard

OMT! (Oh my Tod) I nominate this for a new catch phrase here at OT

Thank you @RTod for all you have done for us. We love you too. I have not had the privilege of meeting any of the Ordinary gentlepeople in person but you all have become such a big part of my daily life that I count you all as friends.

I too welcome our new Overlord Likko

On “A Rattlesnake Solution

Thanks @sam :) I can't be any worse than any of the current candidates right? Who wants to be in my cabinet? of course I'll need a veep, and my Supreme Court Nominee @Burt Likko

On “He didn’t assign the readings

In grad school I had a related problem with a professor he had a 10+page (may have even been 20 really ridiculous) reading list, and a syllabus with general areas that would be covered and when. so say for a certain topic he had 6 readings you had to either guess and hope that was the ones you read he used in class or try to read them all which was a literal impossibility time wise the program I was in we were carrying 18 hours (plus factor in finding and copying all the articles). He also assigned 14+ page term paper topics (the only thing we were graded on) one week out from when they were due. God I hated him okay rant over

On “Stupid Tuesday Questions: End of an Era Edition

The Christmas season in Oklahoma does not officially start until you have heard this. It has been running since 1956 [youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5LJBB65r-9o&w=420&h=315]

On “Sunday!

It is a long flight, I went for a job interview in Doha a few years ago and was only there for three days so I did not get to see a lot. We ate at Al Bandar in the Souq Waqif food was good but the view from the roof top dining was great. Hope you enjoy your trip!
