I compare harry solar power reid to what my dog just left on the lawn.
You sound mad. Don’t be mad, just point at him and laugh. :)
This is an example of why the code duello should still be legal.
Like that riddle!!
"Ahh, but the strawberries that's... that's where I had them. They laughed at me and made jokes but I proved beyond the shadow of a doubt and with... geometric logic... that a duplicate key to the wardroom icebox DID exist, and I'd have produced that key if they hadn't of pulled the Caine out of action. I, I, I know now they were only trying to protect some fellow officers... "
Is there anyway to remove a sitting senator from office when it has become clear that he’s lost his mind! I’m starting to think Harry’s picnic basket is empty. Is his staff propping him up like Bernie Lomax so they can keep their jobs, plopping down talking points in from of him like he’s a parrot.
The child-molesting rustler didn’t take his meds again.
Further proof that, given the chance, these “friends across the aisle” would kill the men, rape the women and sell the children into slavery if they could.
Harry; you've mis-read too many things on FR.
The Flying Inmen are DIRTY pigs; not greased ones.
They merely need hosed down - NOT a thorough scrubbing.
