I wonder how many doctors, nurses, and other well-paid healthcare workers in rural areas are now or soon will be looking for jobs in urban, suburban, and/or exurban locations? I’m guessing that before some rural hospitals close, they’ll be gutted by staff leaving.

He represents SW and western Wisconsin. His district is 89% white. He’s in his 2nd term. He won 51.8% in 2022 and 51.3% in 2024.

Who is the Tight End President?;)

Mr. Blonde was one evil character in “Reservoir Dogs.”

I don’t think Bessent’s lips are on Trump’s ass cheeks…..they’re buried deeper.

Not to be snide, but were your eyes at age 40ish identical to your Dad’s? I always figured my vision was similar to my Dad’s……we’re both acutely near-sighted and were so at a young age. At about 40, he needed bi- or tri-focals. He hated the bifocals; he adjusted to the tri-focals. At some...

I got dizzy reading that.

Let’s be honest…..aside from isolated pockets (Charlotte, RTP, Boone, Asheville, Wilmington, Triad, Greenville-SC, Atlanta, etc.), the Southeast has been a shithole country since at least the antebellum days.

It’s not ironic. Trump and the Trumplicans and MAGAts and GOP are lying, duplicitous, bigoted schmucks.

For the first time, I’m feeling like I don’t give a shit……for both football and basketball. I don’t know who the players are…….there’s almost no watching players develop from season-to-season. I’ve been a Tar Heel fan since we moved to Chapel Hill in 1967 when I was five. I’m still an avid...

“The return of all displaced Palestinian civilians to their homes in all areas of the Gaza Strip.” I wonder how many 10’s/100’s of thousands have no homes to which to return?

Phelps has numerous physical advantages that might have helped him: Height - 6’4” Wingspan - 6’7” (large wingspan is a huge plus in swimming) Legs of a 6’0” man (short legs is an advantage in swimming) Torso of a 6’8” man (helps house his abnormally large lungs) Large hands - allows the swimmer...

I mostly swam - so completely non-contact. When I was 14, at the state championships, I made finals (Top 8) in 5-6 events. I remember going to the blocks for the 200 meter fly. I was the only one who wasn’t 5’8” or taller. I was 4’11”. I was the only one who hadn’t “shaved down” for the meet...

Waited tables at Aurora when it was in Carrboro and Crooks’ Corner. Both in the ‘80’s. Both were mostly fun jobs and relatively well-paying while in college. One rarely left Crooks on a Th, Fr, Sat, or Sunday without netting $120-130 after tipping out. Good people at both places.

LOL. How many BILLIONS would it cost to modernize Alcatraz? Will employees get paid for the transit time on a ferry?
