The best visual I saw for this was a map of counties across the country. It showed a handful of counties in New York, LA and Chicago in blue while most of the country was in red. It explained that the population in those few counties was greater than all the red. I am fine with the EC remaining. I do think some states have neutralized themselves though. I believe Maine is one state that splits its EC votes based on the popular vote percentages. I am not sure how many states do something similar.

That looks like the scene at the end of Step Brothers when they try to hug. 😂

I came across this today. I did not remember this coming out. I did notice that Time did a story on it last year when I googled it. I have never been a Biden fan, and there are points in this that are pretty comical. But all this video shows is that the two major party candidates are bot pathological liars; along with a few other flaws. I still say that Joe does not make it out of the convention, and the DNC knows it. They HAVE to have a plan B in place. Plan B; who comes out of the convention as the candidate? Plan A; if Joe does survive the convention (literally and figuratively), his VP candidate has to be someone who can be seen as President for most of the term; or at least appear presidential to the voters. Regardless of which scenario plays out, the choice of VP (plan A) or the Presidential candidate (Plan B) has got to be a home run; and that CANNOT be Hillary.

Granted, I did post after he did on this. There is plenty of back and forth from multiple people though. I will keep an eye out. A couple of lines have been crossed........Just be civil folks.....PLEASE

I can see that.

You called me out for finishing a question with the word "right", so I wanted to make sure the word "correct" was ok. :)

Not really what I meant...lol I was thinking more along the lines of; at what point does power shift? Would it be the initial positive test? They would need to self quarantine, correct? (How is that for a finish to a question muda? 😄 ) Or would we wait to see how severe the symptoms would become?

It has been a while since I have read this particular page. I have to say I am not a fan of seeing it descend into personal insults and name calling. There is a lot of good/interesting info on both sides of this that is posted here. It gets old reading through all the shit though guys. Could we keep it more civil? I get that there may be a negative impact that the shut down has had on all of us, but we are all better than this.....aren't we? Yeah, I know, I am far from perfect. On another notes; with several WH staff and Exec branch staff testing positives; I saw a headline asking what happens if the President tests positive? How about the VP?

I was texting a friend at that moment and said pretty cool to see that he was so passionate about something then and he still reacts with strong emotion now. we were also messaging about the “compete” level he brought every day. It seems to be something missing from the game today. Kobe may have been the last one to compete on that level. But even he was smart enough to lean on MJ through the years for advice. The game thrived in the era of MJ because there were a number of players that had a level of mental toughness that is lacking. Even Kobe said years ago just how much club leagues are ruining the game.

My biggest complaint with this series and it has become much more annoying with each episode; is the LONG flashbacks. This would have been MUCH better if it had just gone in sequential order.

Fixed it....Try this, because it may not be obvious how to edit....scroll your mouse over the title; see if you get a thin popup of the title, and at the end of it, what I saw was "click and hold to edit".

16 stadiums are named? Sad to see that "other" is an option; how much effort to just name them all? ......same problems that "Gamenight" runs into......not just a level of favoritism, but repeated slights.

New Haven went with a darker gold......by accident, but we like it much better than the standard gold. We went with the large bulldog 2 seasons ago. The players’ numbers are on the other side of the helmet.

It goes back to the days of leather helmets. The seams in the leather were sewn in that pattern; and teams often did color combinations with it very much like we see now on the UM helmet. Funny story about Bo being hired. At the press conference to introduce him, he said he was excited to be there and that he could not wait to change the ugly helmets. 😄

I would agree that there are a lot of people that are acting irresponsibly throughout this whole thing, regardless of party affiliation. As far as answering the other question, that is who I meant to address it to, but this site merges posts.

I would have liked to have seen the number of padded days allowed would be for July. Are we still allowed to do 12 days? 5 competition days?

Not only did he know he was supposed to; his office sent a memo to everyone who would be attending the trip they needed to wear masks. https://www.businessinsider.com/pence-threatened-reporter-proved-knew-mayo-clinic-mask-rule-2020-5 And here is his admission that he should have worn one: https://www.politico.com/news/2020/05/03/pence-should-have-worn-mask-mayo-clinic-233360 As far as the other question, I have stated in a previous post the individuals I know personally who have passed away or have had the virus.

Do you get whiplash from spinning that hard? lol......You KNOW full well this is NOT about any order Pence gave or did not give. The policy at the hospital was for anyone entering to wear a mask. Every person that was part of that group received the exact same advance notice for the trip. Pence even said later, after his wife lied for him, that he should have worn a mask. and you blame other people for being sheep........lol What is also funny is that the king of this forum regarding the theme of fake news seems to be doing the exact same thing lately. Not just the spin you put on Bob’s comment, but the fake news regarding the statistical improbability of your comment that no one in your family or no one that works at the plant you do knows a single person who has the virus. Then there is the notion you put forth just prior to that one that apparently only democrats know people with the virus.

This young man has been an impressive young man for quite a while. While I am sad he went to Purdue lol; I wish him nothing but success. This is fun to listen tpo; even though the person doing the interview is clueless about the game lol https://facingfearwithsara.buzzsprout.com/651715/3504874-s3e3-just-a-kid-from-warren-purdue-football-s-big-10-freshman-of-the-year-david-bell

Such a perfectionist lol.....you chose to insert yourself in the conversation with a correction, so while I did ask you the question, it does not mean the question would not apply to Howe as well. Maybe you choose to not answer because the answer does not fit some sort of stance you two have in common regarding the virus? 🤔

Apology accepted. But adding 950 more people to the equation further increases the odds quite a bit that someone he mentioned actually knows someone who tested positive, right?

Yeah...too lazy...as if that actually helped. And yeah, you have never typed something wrong have you? That said....just where the hell do you see “match person”?

So, my math person said this is the equation. There are actually 2 million in the metro Indy area. For discussion purposes, I will guess there are 50 people that work at the plant you do. You never answered that question, so if it is more or less, the equation is the same. But let’s just say all those people know just two other people. I won’t guess the number of siblings still married though, so I will keep your number at 77. So with an estimate at the plant of 50, we are at 127 people. So if each of them knows two people, we are at 381. so 381/2,000,000 x 9936 is the equation. .0001905x9936=1.892. Convert that into a percentage, and there is a 2% chance that all the people you mentioned do NOT know someone who has tested positive, based on yesterday’s numbers. I am still curious though if you did indeed talk to all 76 people you mentioned yesterday to know for sure if they do not know anyone who has the virus.

It has been some time since it was posted. But I believe your basic premise for what you believe is that people should be allowed to do whatever they want as long as it does no harm to others or infringe upon the rights of others. Has that changed now? also, being a supporter of a strict and limited interpretation of the Constitution, my next question is how do you define the phrase “promote the general welfare”?
