I don't know what Germany's rent laws are like but Judge Judy would find that this landlady went a tad over the line.

Similar results in Ohio, but change Clinton to 88%. Republicans could get the majority of the black vote by announcing they are going to pay blacks slavery reparations. The bigger the payout the higher the percentage. Of course they would lose way more votes from non-blacks than what they'd gain. I...

What scares the Bejesus out of limited government fans is that Hillary could serve two terms and leave the court with a 7 to 2 liberal majority that would last to the middle of the century. That's a good thing for big gov't types but game over for people like me. So you'd prefer an authoritarian ru...

The direct answer is yes I'm bothered by it. Justices are actually barred by the federal judicial code from endorsing or opposing political candidates, and she should be subject to whatever level of censure is appropriate. The point of the question is I think it's selective whinging. You are wrong....

Amazing. The guy posted and told police his exact motive. potus reads the minds of tens of millions of whites to determine their racism (which is basically opposing his policies). I heard he spoke about the 2 black shooting victims. He couldn't bring himself to mention any of the dead police. I doub...

I might favor no.3 on this list. Number 8 has a decent chance of yielding better results than the last 20 some years.

Watched some revolutionary war and founding fathers stuff over the weekend. I knew about the prison ships that they held American prisoners in and how bad they were but forgot or didn't remember the details. There were roughly 8,500 rebel combat deaths out of 25,000 total. About 11,5000 Americans di...

Polyphasic sleep patterns
I didn't know what that meant but definitely polyphasic. I work midnight shifts and average 70 hours per week. I rarely take a day off; this year I sold back my vacation days now that they allow it. I sleep 3 or 4 hours in the AM when I get off work then I try to take a nap for a couple hours before...

This is the 100th anniversary of the Eastern uprising (it happened on Easter Monday and Easter was in April that year). PBS had an interesting 3 part show about it and the subsequent rebellion that lasted several years. That was also followed by a long Irish civil war that I was unaware of.
