Politics And Current Events

Germans weren't allowed in because of fear they'd act as spies and funnel intel back to friends and family in the homeland. Jews weren't turned away because they were violent, just because they were undesirable and might be agents of the enemy. I think that's still pretty relevant today.

Good-bye Virgin Racing/Marussia/Manor F1. We hardly knew 'ye! "The teams collapse means all of the teams added to the grid in 2010 , have now disappeared from the grid." I'm still all for customer cars. Lotus/Renault went belly-up and then coming back as Renault, Force India is always rumored to be...

No guys, you're supposed to sit on your hands and not tell the politicians what you want to see improved/retained in this country. Let them do whatever they want and then only say something after its already done and written into law.

Makes sense.
Meanwhile to go along with the "costs of protests" discussion from earlier: my BIL put in 12 hrs yesterday, 14 today, and is scheduled for another 12 tomorrow for the GOP powwow in Philly.

RIP

Haven't heard much more. Initial reports are no alcohol looked to be involved (but toxicology hadn't been done yet) and his World Series Ring was stolen from the site which has led to an unconfirmed report that he was alive when the first people made it to the scene and opted to rob him rather than ...

Yep.
My wife and I were in the stands for what was arguably his best performance, Game 6 of the 2014 WS which he pitched in honor of Oscar Taveras. Most amazing sporting event I've ever attended.

We've run three Lemons races, still have the car up at the shop but real life has shelved repair plans. A lot of Lemons cars are some incredible Gerry-rigged engineering stuff, I seem to remember Chumpcar being a bit more straightforward. Almost want to buy an EP RX7 to try to make the runoffs at In...

I heard about it, and how poorly it was run/presented.
This. It was pretty much a joke, but props to Dario and whoever the other announcer was for staying professional through it all.

The Little Golden Book also speaks to my new theory on why comedy/comedians are generally panned these days. In the old days, a comedian was the funniest person we knew or heard. But with the internet, no comedian is going to be funnier than combined high points of the 1000 people we have access to ...

That's the possible upside to Trump. There's never been any doubt that he'll help business owners, the question is whether any of that will help the worker.
