Look for the Mouse to take this all the way to at least the Florida Supreme Court. So does this mean the Orange and Osceola county governments now have to take over the functions and services that the Reedy Creek Improvement District has been providing for the last 50 years? That should be a smooth and seamless transition.........................

Patients Beware: Washington Is Pushing Woke Health Care https://www.nationalreview.com/2022/04/patients-beware-washington-is-pushing-woke-health-care/ Disgusting.

https://reason.com/2022/04/19/desantis-calls-for-end-of-walt-disney-worlds-self-rule/ Good luck to Mr. DeSantis is trying to get this legislation passed. It won't work. And while I find the news that Disney has been pushing pro-LGBT messaging into various children's media products for years abhorrent that doesn't mean parents are being forced to have their children consume Disney products and services.

My wife kicked me out because of my terrible Arnold Schwarzenegger impressions, but don't worry. I'll return.

Heh heh, looks about like the work from the UofM School of Engineering.

The last time I was in Michigan Stadium, which I'll admit was in the mid-1990's, it was a crumbling dump. And they crammed you in there like sardines to the point that if you didn't sit down when everybody sat down you had lost your seat on the cold, hard, bleachers.

Why Does Elon Musk's Potential Twitter Takeover Scare the Media So Much? https://reason.com/2022/04/18/elon-musk-twitter-takeover-poison-pill-media-speech/ Axios writes that Musk has gone into "full goblin mode" and is acting like a super villain. City University of New York journalism professor Jeff Jarvis implied that Musk's takeover would be akin to the rise of Nazi Germany. These people are desperately scared by the mere possibility that a wealthy person with somewhat different politics—and a somewhat more favorable disposition to unfiltered speech—is going to tweak their favorite toy. Agreed. They are frightened snowflakes.

I've tried to get into watching Breaking Bad a couple times now, and it just couldn't hold my interest. Don't really know why. However I did recently binge watch both seasons of Barry on HBO Max, and was pleasantly surprised.

What Old-Time Saloons Tell Us About the Pandemic's Damage https://reason.com/2022/04/16/bars-are-full-of-good-ideas/

Yep. If it is a material that is put into a battery, solar cell, or windmill then any form of exploitation to get such material is justified. Think about the planet!

They provide a service to the market. Too bad government regulation and laws have basically made them mandatory, along with our society's post-WW2 insistence that employers pay for said medical insurance.

So under this 8-man system could an established Mega-School, say a Carmel, Ben Davis, or Center Grove field a team as well? After all these schools often have very large rosters, and frankly there are athletes who spend most of their time "riding the pine" on the 11-man squad that could contribute and excel on an 8-man team.

Do you think if Mr. Musk succeeds and takes Twitter private he will unban Mr. Trump?

https://www.indystar.com/story/sports/high-school/2022/04/14/8-man-high-school-football-coming-indiana-2022-pilot-season/7274754001/ Meh, I wish them luck but am skeptical that this will take off. Call me when the like of Rossville fields a team or Clinton Central, with an slowly eroding 9-12 enrollment, decides to switch to 8-man football.

No, that was Mr. Sasso IIRC. Neither, friend. It is you attempting to move the goalposts and lambast insurance companies and not the federal government entitlements like medicare and medicaid.

I saw a radio for sale for $1, and it had a note saying volume was stuck at full. I just knew I couldn’t turn that down.

Covid hypocrite of the week:

But, but there was a "plot" to strand her in the middle of Lake Michigan in a boat without a motor!

Probably. Especially if you write a song about it like Dennis Leary did: Folks, I'd like to sing a song about the American Dream About me, about you About the way our American hearts beat way down in the bottom of our chests About that special feeling we get in the cockles of our hearts Maybe below the cockles Maybe in the sub cockle area Maybe in the liver, maybe in the kidneys Maybe even in the colon, we don't know I'm just a regular Joe with a regular job I'm your average white, suburbanite slob I like football and porno and books about war I got an average house with a nice hardwood floor My wife and my job, my kids and my car My feet on my table and a Cuban cigar But sometimes, that just ain't enough to keep a man like me interested (Oh, no, no way, uh-uh) No, I gotta go out and have fun at someone else's expense (Whoa, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) I drive really slow in the ultra fast lane While people behind me are going insane I'm an asshole (He's an asshole, what an asshole) I'm an asshole (He's an asshole, such an asshole) I use public toilets, and I piss on the seat I walk around in the Summer time, saying, "How about this heat?" I'm an asshole (He's an asshole, what an asshole) I'm an asshole (He's the world's biggest asshole) Sometimes, I park in handicapped spaces While handicapped people make handicapped faces I'm an asshole (He's an asshole, what an asshole) I'm an asshole (He's a real fucking asshole) Maybe I shouldn't be singing this song Ranting and raving and carrying on Maybe they're right when they tell me I'm wrong... Nah I'm an asshole (He's an asshole, what an asshole) I'm an asshole (He's the world's biggest asshole) You know what I'm gonna do? I'm gonna get myself a 1967 Cadillac Eldorado convertible Hot pink with whale skin hubcaps And all leather cow interior And big brown baby seal eyes for head lights (Yeah) And I'm gonna drive in that baby at 115 miles per hour Gettin' one mile per gallon Sucking down Quarter Pounder cheeseburgers from McDonald's In the old fashioned non-biodegradable styrofoam containers And when I'm done sucking down those greaseball burgers I'm gonna wipe my mouth with the American flag And then I'm gonna toss the styrofoam containers right out the side And there ain't a goddamn thing anybody can do about it You know why? Because we've got the bomb, that's why Two words: nuclear fucking weapons, okay? Russia, Germany, Romania, they can have all the democracy they want They can have a big democracy cakewalk Right through the middle of Tiananmen Square And it won't make a lick of difference Because we've got the bombs, okay? John Wayne's not dead, he's frozen And as soon as we find a cure for cancer We're gonna thaw out the Duke, and he's gonna be pretty pissed off You know why? Have you ever taken a cold shower? Well, multiply that by fifteen million times That's how pissed off the Duke's gonna be I'm gonna get the Duke, and John Cassavetes And Lee Marvin, and Sam Peckinpah, and a case of whiskey And drive down to Texas and (Hey! You know, you really are an asshole!) Why don't you just shut up and sing the song, pal? I'm an asshole (He's an asshole, what an asshole) I'm an asshole (He's the world's biggest asshole) A-S-S-H-O-L-E Everybody A-S-S-H-O-L-E I'm an asshole, and I'm proud of it
