The next season of Boardwalk Empire will be its last.
That’s probably a good thing. The can write a good ending instead of going nowhere like the past season.
But I do agree on the benefits of ending the series too early rather than too late.
Have you seen Root on Justified? He plays a judge.
Is there a name? Is it Walgreens brand?
This has nothing to do with anything, and isn't directed towards you, but I just need to vent since I can't drink this away yet. An adorably cute woman at work (with the best poopper in the office) just "sir"-ed me.
Ugh.
Walker, is a potential veep candidate, depending on the Stregnth of his machine.
Flip NJ, and Wisconsin no Dem Prez, but...WI can be flipped without Walker on the ticket,
It’s generally 10000 votes,
Gov should just wait and declare a state of emergency, in Madison, on Election day.
Just
For
Men.
Xsboy is astute-I envy you. The cub did just that-and now she has a monster student debt, and no job or prospects in an already saturated field where the only jobs are going to be toast-thank God-as soon as we have a conservative CIC.
I advised her to go into water quality and conservation-get work with a river authority, or water conservation board-something that makes real world sense, but no-she believed the lib profs, went into the chicken little enviro field, turned herself into an acolyte and now has no income, no job prospects in that lalaland-and no sympathy or interest from mom, either. According to my ultra conservative-and fed up-SIL, if she doesn’t get her head out of her ass she will soon have no husband, either-and he refuses to help her pay a debt he tried so hard to keep her from incurring, begging her to pay as you go. Her dad and I did our best to bring her up right-I’ll bet he is turning in his early grave...
Assuming that he turns NJ red in the general election, and wins every state that Romney won in 2012, he would still have to turn some more states that obama won back to red. And that hinges on the very big assumption that red state voters in the south and midwest decide to come out and vote for the third straight Rovian candidate from the Rockefeller/Kennedy wing of the big government side of the GOP. I’m glad you have a lot of confidence in him, and maybe you’ve seen something from a guy who managed to win twice in one of the most liberal high-tax big government states in the union to justify that confidence. I’m just not convinced that the GOP needs to pin its hopes on candidates from states that routinely elect dems for both their senate seats and a majority of their house seats and for most of their state legislative seats. Sounds to me like a recipe for a democrat lite party and not a limited government return to the constitution republican party.
He got you so you don’t know what you’re doin’...
Oh that is such a shame!
Maybe she’s into discipline.
She’s my cub, and I love her-but she made the bed-it is no one else’s doing that she has to lie in it, she is many years over 18.
I’m very proud of MrT5’s daughter, though-no sheeplike behavior or denial of reality there-ad agencies are pretty real places to work-the only koolaid offered there is from the companies whose ads you write and illustrate. I’m hoping she will interest someone in my book-to-be.
Even jobless and in debt she doesn’t see the error of her ways?
Not yet-all her new friends are liberal lunatics from the Austin area-she keeps herself well insulated from anyone from the real world, family included. She doesn’t believe her husband will get fed up because he has loved her since she was 15 and they were best friends, either. Of I were her therapist, I’d call her Cleopatra, Queen of Denial and check her purse for paxil or some such...
“If” I were her therapist...
You saw my dissertation on the last two elections.
Palin!Perry?McCain? Romney?
The most pathetic aspect of that list..is Palin was the only one with a punch,
There is no Dem path to the WH without NJ.
NC,Fla, will swing back, as the Dems have to Pay NY money to shore up NJ.
Wisconsin tilts our way.
So as long as she already sees you as an older man, maybe you should start using “caboose” instead. I’m just sayin’...
he better not reference that woman’s behind, in the workplace, by ANY name! ROR~~
