Sometimes a picture is just a picture. Maybe it will mean something down the road, maybe not.
No 8/ used in eucre
Powerful, that Trump card...
"flash dark" is a groaner of a play on words.
And you deserve to have an interpreter so that we can always understand the profundity of your comments. I can glance down a page and always stop on yours, even without checking on ids. So enjoyable.
It’s just a nice place to be when the fireworks go off in DC Monday morning a 1:00 AM.
“Role of Hillary Clinton’s brother in Haiti gold mine raises eyebrows” https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/role-of-hillary-clintons-brother-in-haiti-gold-mine-raises-eyebrows/2015/03/20/c8b6e3bc-cc05-11e4-a2a7-9517a3a70506_story.html?noredirect=on&utm_term=.dbd4abf9a9c4
See I knew it!!
Agreed, Q is in FL with Trump.
Anybody notice he skipped the Las Vegas question and just answered the Seth Rich one?
But that's some badass weed.
Ol’ Cboldt, in his cups - NTTAWWT - posted a poker hand pic we assumed was Q and we analyzed TF out of it. Good exercise, gotta keep our ol’ neural knots elastic for the Q game.
Madame, you’ve impinged my reputation! I’m from Michigan, where euchre and beer get us through the endless (12” of new snow this week!) winters!
Lest I am besmirched, let me explain my answer. I was merely explaining what a trump card is in euchre. I know there are no 8s in that game. C’mon, it’s the only card game I’ve ever bothered to learn!! I will not require a formal apology, I believe my snowfall amounts give me enough cred. LOLOL!
For Mary Ann’s coconut pies.
Rudy is here not for Mueller. He’s here to deliver the insurance file.
He’s here to break it to the country. He’s here to lay it out, get us ready, and then he’s going to break it.
The DNC suit is the entre. They gave them exactly what 45 wanted.
Hey, neighb, I’m back from HOU stay/task; my Austinites kept me alive vicariously, thank you....
Yes, was wondering about that. Or perhaps means the truth about Vegas will also be revealed in June and he just did not mention it?

A nuclear blast is measured in kilotons and megatons.
The Little Boy atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima on August 6, 1945, exploded with an energy of about 15 kilotons of TNT (63 TJ), and the Fat Man atomic bomb dropped on Nagasaki on August 9, 1945, exploded with an energy of about 20 kilotons of TNT (84 TJ)
The Air Force’s ‘rods from god’ could hit with the force of a nuclear weapon — with no fallout
The 107-country Outer Space Treaty signed in 1967 prohibits nuclear, biological, or chemical weapons from being placed in or used from Earth’s orbit. What they didn’t count on was the US Air Force’s most simple weapon ever: a tungsten rod that could hit a city with the explosive power of an intercontinental ballistic missile
The rod itself would penetrate hundreds of feet into the Earth, destroying any potential hardened bunkers or secret underground sites. More than that, when the rod hits, the explosion would be on par with the magnitude of a ground-penetrating nuclear weapon— but with no fallout.
Such a weapon could destroy a target with 15 minutes’ notice.
One Quora user who works in the defense aerospace industry quoted a cost of no less than $10,000 a pound to fire anything into space. With 20 cubic feet of dense tungsten weighing in at just over 24,000 pounds, the math is easy. Just one of the rods would be prohibitively expensive. The cost of $230 million a rod was unimaginable during the Cold War.
These days, not so much. The Bush administration even considered revisiting the idea to hit underground nuclear sites in rogue nations in the years following 9/11. Interestingly enough, the cost of a single Minuteman III ICBM was $7 million in 1962, when it was first introduced ($57 million adjusted for inflation).
The trouble with a nuclear payload is that it isn’t designed to penetrate deep into the surface. And the fallout from a nuclear device can be devastating to surrounding, potentially friendly areas.
Puzzles are fun and good for the brain even if they do take us in circles at times.
It’s a sundial. That’s why the shadow of the central does not line up with the surrounding vertical items -—it’s on a diagonal.
