I disagree with your final paragraph. We wouldn't be "running around hiding from dinosaurs." We would be patiently waiting behind fences for our dinosaur owners to feed us, or maybe "fatten us up" would be a more descriptive phrasing.

So, what I think you saying is that we humans are not and can not so screw up this Earth as to destroy all life. I know you know this, but, . . ., Republicans are going to read what you wrote as a challenge, to be met with, "Hey y'all, watch this!"

Only if what he throws comes back to him after hitting its target, like Thor's Hammer, only with lettuce and mayo.

The only reason Nellie Bly isn't a fictional character is because any self-respecting book editor would have dismissed a recounting of her actual life as absurdist fiction that no one would believe.

I would nominate Nellie Bly, (a) successfully went "Around the World" in 72 days in 1889, (b) went undercover as a patient at a mental hospital, (c) invented immersion journalism, such as working at a copper factory, (d) invented milk cans and stacking garbage cans, and (e) got herself arrested...

In re RIck Atkinson: I once had a brief e-mail correspondence with an active-duty Army Officer who had written a history book that was getting good reviews and some buzz as maybe a Pulitzer nominee. And then, as he put it, "Rick f***ing Atkinson" released Book 1 of the Liberation Trilogy...

I don't know if you ever served in the military, but what you are criticizing is the oath that every soldier has sworn to uphold for many, many years. I personally swore that oath that all six of those whom you condemn also swore. So what I have to say to you is f*** you and f*** the horse...

Is that you, . . ., Biily Mays, speaking to us from the grave?

Russian "negotiations" with St. Donald of Mar-a-Lago: "Do what we tell you or the Kompromat we have on you will be on the front page of every major newspaper in the world tomorrow morning."

Ping, ping, pingggg!, Richochet Rabbit!"

Have you noticed how in many of his photo ops, St. Donald of Mar-a-Lago is sitting and how often his right hand is covering his left hand and how incoherent he is. IIRC, all three of these are symtoms of Black Syphilis. That's the genetically engineered and incurable stain that the Russians...

Let's not quibble over land or population, let's adopt H. L. Hunt's proposal for "Graduated Sufferage." This was Hunt's plan to make how many votes a person could cast proportional to how much that person paid in income tax. Just think about all those biilionaires trying to figure out how they...

If only we had some sort of precedent for how the Federal Government would handle someone who committed such a crime. I mean, it's not like she some pedophile enabler and and the current administration surely wouldn't treat her like she was a pedophile enabler, would they? Transfer to a...

I know that issuing pardons in exchange for bribes is a concept that is about 10 seconds younger than the concept of a pardon. And I acknowledge that the concept of paying a bribe for a pardon may have actually been the motivation for the creation of the concept of a pardon. But, I can't help...

When we as a nation elect someone as deeply compromised and as compromisable as St. Donald of Mar-a-Lago, it is very predictable that foreign entities are going to blackmail that person for their own advantage and to the disadvantage of the United States. St. Donald is who and what every person...
