MexicanDragon Posted September 12, 2023 Report Share Posted September 12, 2023 I haven't had a drink at home in a fortnight, but I have a couple inches of whiskey left in a 1.75L bottle. I'd be doing Jimmy a disservice if I don't kill it. *Cheers* 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knuckledragger Posted September 29, 2023 Report Share Posted September 29, 2023 Sen. Dianne Feinstein, an 'icon for women in politics,' dies at 90. I was not particularly a fan of her, but keeping her in office as long as her handlers did was an act of elder abuse. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voltron Posted September 29, 2023 Report Share Posted September 29, 2023 (edited) I don’t want to start a political discussion here but DiFi had an incredible career as a public servant. There’s room for debate on whether keeping her in office this long was appropriate but she did it as another service to her state and country. The republicans claimed they would not follow senate protocol and would refuse to allow her appointed replacement to take over her committee assignments etc. They held her hostage in my opinion and I’ll be curious to see how it plays out after she died in office. /end rant RIP Senator Feinstein, you deserve the rest.

swt61 Posted September 29, 2023 Report Share Posted September 29, 2023 I don't like to get too political either, but it's too late for that. Everyone here knows I'm a liberal Democrat. I do however believe in crossing the isle to work with Republicans to get things done. That is just becoming increasingly impossible with what has become of the Republican party. Dianne was an amazing politician. Her accomplishments are too vast to mention here. Not only a role model for women, but a role model for anyone that believes our Government has a role to play in helping it's citizens. I'm sorry she didn't live long enough to see the ultra MAGA contingent ousted. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knuckledragger Posted October 2, 2023 Report Share Posted October 2, 2023 RIP Tim Wakefield, Boston Red Sox relief pitcher. 57 years old is awfully young. Also screw Curt Schilling who is never not an absolute clown. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Chalk Posted October 14, 2023 Report Share Posted October 14, 2023 RIP Rudolph Isley, harmony singer and one of the main songwriters of the Isley Brothers. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voltron Posted October 14, 2023 Report Share Posted October 14, 2023 RIP RIP Rudolph. I love the Isleys and always played my vinyl version of Live It Up! back in the day when we actually had parties where people danced. This summer there was a local restaurant and bar with a DJ outdoors and I requested the Isleys and he ended up doing a medley that finished with B-Boy Bouillabaisse by Beastie Boys, which samples That Lady. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Chalk Posted October 15, 2023 Report Share Posted October 15, 2023 Yeah, that was an emotional one. This is an ironic one (or unfortunate, I don't know which): Michael Chiarello -- famous food chef, died of complications resulting from an acute allergic reaction. What an awful way to go. I'll probably die of something stupid, like drowning in my own snot (I have a cold right now, and I had one of the hottest Chinese mustards I've ever had on my egg roll earlier, and the mustard loosened up my sinuses), so I am not being judgmental here. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

en480c4 Posted October 27, 2023 Report Share Posted October 27, 2023 Luckily my wife’s family is safe. My sister-in-law and niece live in Lewiston, just outside the Bates campus, between the two scenes. And my in-laws are about 5 miles away in Auburn. It was a pretty stressful evening with so little information. Hope they’re able to track him down soon. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voltron Posted October 27, 2023 Report Share Posted October 27, 2023 Sorry for your family's worries, Ian. Both of my twin nieces live in Portland and both have taught at Bates, but neither does currently. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
