If any of the half dozen of you that read this thread have read God and Gold by Walter Russell Meade, or The Spirit of Democratic Capitalism, by Michael Novak, send me a private note.
Three Ole Miss Tri-Delts decided to become reacquainted after a few years of raising *******. They met on the Square in Oxford for mimosas at lunch-time , before a mid afternoon kickoff between Bama and Ole Miss. Their husbands were chugging beers in the Grove.

When I read these political postings I am always dazzled. The handful of you or so that regularly post are well informed. Neither of I or perhaps anyone else would agree with all of what you say. But, why argue with the few number of people that read politics on this site? Besides, you are...
Mac opines in various forums on here, as if he or the rest of us cannot live another day without his rendering of his latest opinion. Somewhere on here he advises someone he cannot post something, because he is on his company computer, and the document or pic is unfortunately at home, on his...
I just finished reading They Thought They Were Free, by Milton Meyer. This was published in 1954, and written by an American. The book starts with his interviews in the early 1950s of 10 Germans in a small German town, and their views of the Nazis, from 1932 on. It was the typical German view...
I am still wondering what clip the movie is from that is noted above. It is not from Slaughter's Big Rip Off, as noted by humpibumpi. Any info is appreciated. My guess is that this was filmed for the aforementioned movie, but the scene was deleted. If that is the case, who gained access to it?
HOW TO WIN AN ARGUMENT-Suppose you are at a party and some hotshot intellectual [or MacNfries] is expounding on the economy in Peru, a subject you know nothing about. If you're drinking some health-fanatic ******* like grapefruit juice, you'll hang back, afraid to display your ignorance, while the...
I do not believe the state owes the wrongly accused compensation, as a general rule, if it is later determined that the person was innocent, but convicted. It depends. If it can be proven that the state suppressed evidence, or there was some deliberate wrongdoing by the prosecution or the judge...
I accidentally clicked the wrong thing to reply to-meant to reference one of Torpedos' golf stories. But yessir! I will behave from now on. Glad to see who is in charge here. Another case of the morons running the asylum.
Several years ago, three of us were ready to tee off at a resort golf course. A fellow drove up in his cart , got up close to us and said "I am deaf, but I read lips. Can I play with you?" He was very hard to understand, as if he had been deaf from birth and had never heard a human voice. He was...
You say "as I recall...Obama offered a 3 for 1." If you want to review who offered what and who reneged on what, read Bob Woodard's [that ole right wing Repub of Watergate fame] book on that episode.
Economists cannot agree on the ultimate value of deficit spending to the short term...
About 30 years ago, a friend played golf at the Mount Kenya Safari Club. They issued him the clubs and two balls. He said the course was surrounded by a see through fence, to keep the animals out. He hit one ball over the fence.
After the round, he returned his clubs and one ball. A...
