Jack, thanks for the post. Greg's comment is right on. Why can't these concepts/conflicts be discussed in schools and colleges? Sad days for freedom of thought.

Mike Lorts, I need to check what comes from using my cell phone for this shit! I usually go back and check my post but obviously not that time. If you ever used your phone for posting you would know it anticipates what you want to say. No spell check when using an iPhone, at least mine. Thanks!

Finally, the media is talking about whether the band of attorneys that went to Biden locations to pick up classified documents.....IF those attorneys had clearances to "see" classified material.  It's as if they read my post #8974 dated 1/13.  For some reason Keystone Kops comes to mind.

AMERICA FIRST!!  SECURE THE BORDER!!  TERM LIMITS!!

Michalia School in London--Google it-----Mixed Race Free School which parallels with American Charter Schools.  Results based tha tells their students--"You are in control of your destiny"!!  Doug Ducey was putting a policy in place in which the education money from the State stayed with the students.  I wonder where the new Governor stands on this or is she a slave to the Teachers Union?

Mike Lorts

At the risk of being snarky again.

Jim, the correct spelling is attorneys, not attornies

Mike L.

You say tomatoes, Jim says tomotoes.

You say attouneys, Jim says attornies. 

Just call the whole thing off. (SNARK SNARK)

How about the state senator from Wyoming, Jim Anderson, introducing legislation to ban all ELECTRIC cars by 2035 in his state? Sen. Anderson admits this will not become law because of its sheer idiocy. Instead, he wants to make a statement to states like California about how ridiculous these laws are.  

Jim Coats

Lorts.  I deny that I spelled anything wrong....I'm never wrong!  Prove it!!  I'll deny that I denied anything.  I have plausible deniability!  I have implausible deniability!  I was NOT there!  I've never been on this Forum, see?  I have an alibi (aliby?) Nope, alibi!  I'm innocent, see.  Yeah!  That's right....innocent!  I was out with a dame and she'll alibi me.  I'm goin' outside for a shot of Early Times and smoke a fag....see?

BTW, Mar-a-Lago is hyphenated and the 2nd "a" is not capitalized.  Yeah...that's right, see?

Frank Wiley

I have a question?  Do any of you remember a Teacher giving their personal opinion about politics?  I don't.

DeWitt Bacon

Frank. I remember one time. But it didn't bother me because I happened to agree with her. :)

What is a SKIF? (Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility, pronounced “skiff”), a U.S. Department of Defense term for a secure room. It would seem to me that a safe, inside a double-locked room, in a house guarded by the Secret Service would fit the description of that term. I would not think a 'locked' garage with files stacked in plain sight would fit that description. I don't care how valuable you think your car is. Do we know where in the house the other files were located? Were they in a double-locked room in a safe? I doubt that. And, of course, Hunter had access to all of those. I wonder how many documents referred to his illegal actions in China, Russia, and Ukraine. We'll probably never know. I'm sure they will mysteriously disappear.

Bill RIHS

Oh! Joey sis at it again. Classified documents care extremely important to him. In the same statement he was surprised and did not know those document were as found. What a genius, Not!

Patty Meyers (Anderson)

Frank, I never heard a personal opinion from any teacher, even those I knew fairly well, they don't belong in the schools.

Bill RIHS

Frank, I never heard political opinions from teachers.

Dennis Moran

Frank,

I was born in Pittsburgh PA the magical city of red dog and steel industries...hey we had the Clark bar too.

I didn't know about York being a capital in the Revolution but that was very cool...so much history.. We went to Philly and took the city history tour...it was amazing to hear that the British troops who died were burried head first..it made it easier for them to go to hell. saw Benjamin Franklin grave n his wife too.  wow before that I thought Boston had the most history well I was wrong.

i recomend the book Red Coats and Rebels...an excellent book on the revolution with British views as well.

I still thank Miss Knapstein for showing the humor of the Revolution and encoraging my interest it

It still surprises me that Arizona is larger than Pennsylvania.

Mike Lorts

Jim,

Maybe you dunt spel so gud but you shur funy.

Jim Coats

Mike L.  I deny being funny.  So you think I'm funny?  I'm not a funny guy, see?  Don't make me go all Joe Pesci on youse.

I think we've worn this one out.  Have a good night and try to come to the Beer Summit on 1/31.  NO politics, NO religion.  Just old guys (Good Fellas) lying.  It's OK, see?

Bill RIHS

Wow! Lorts has a sense of humor. I am shocked 😁😎. Mike, show up to the Beer Summit.👍

Bill Randall

Anyone ever use "Turo" for a car rental?? Seems cost-effective. Big selections, very interesting.

**Beer Summit on the 31st. Time; 5:30 or 6:00p? Place (too kool for outside/patio). Need to consider Manuel's on 28th St & Indain School.

Camelback HS questions about "personal opinions". Yes, Miss Knapstein was very outspoken her beliefs, as class would start, but she challenged anyone's thinking. She enjoyed any debate.

Also there was a young teacher(1963) who also enjoyed stirring our minds. Would play current events, asking for any views. The JFK assination blew her away, the class became very dull afterwards. 

Frank Wiley

San Francisco City Council has approved a payment of up to $5,000,000 (5 Million) to Black People who were supposedly effected by Slavery.  Again I repeat what Clint Eastwood said, "I never owned slaves, and you were never a slave!"  Translation--Clint and I do not owe them a cent!!  California is the "Fool's" Golden State!!  

Frank Wiley

Beer Summit is at 5:30.  We will discuss a change in venue which I'm open to.  

Mike Lorts

Is the summit on the 20 or the 31?

Jim Coats

31st at this moment in time.  Info is on the Home Page before you hit Message Forum.
