Hi Nigel,

Well, this seems to be real news:  Mexican security chief confirms cartel family members entered US in a deal with Trump administration

And, it sure as hell is not The Onion.

You seem to have missed Saturday Night Live.

Will Mike suffice? Adrian? Angel? Aubry? Avery? Pat? Blair? Brooklyn? Casey? Edie? Dakota? Dallas? Harley? Robin? Riley?

Sandy? Sam? Quinn?

Never stopped to consider how many unisex names there actually are. An Ocean of them even, like a Phoenix!

An old friend of mine had three daughters and she named them all neutral-gender names, so they would not be discriminated against in academia and the business world.

Clever. I wonder if any downsides were revealed. Anyway, Onion or not:

"I won on the border. And I won on groceries. It's a very simple word: groceries. Like, almost, who uses the word — I started using the word — the groceries," Trump told "Meet the Press" in December.

“It’s such an old-fashioned term but a beautiful term: groceries," Trump mused during his "Liberation Day" speech in April that announced tariffs. "It sort of says a bag with different things in it."

"We have, uh, costs are way down. Groceries are — we have a term 'groceries.' It's an old term, but it means basically what you're buying, food. It's a pretty accurate term, but it's an old-fashioned sound; but groceries are down. Costs are down. Eggs are down. They were — the first week, they were hitting me with eggs are up 200%. And now they're down to a number that is amazing — down 97-98% from where they were."

Did someone drive him by a grocery store one day and foolishly mentioned that was where voters bought food?

Hi Joe,

That reminds of when Bush 41 saw a scanner at the check-out counter & did not know what it was.

Some folks really need to get out & really see the world.

We used to have a skydiving couple at the dz, Jody and Danielle. Jody worked in a call centre and Danielle as a mechanic. 

It was amazing how often people mixed up who was who (Jody was the husband)

One of my favourites is recently is “The good parts of the economy are mine and the bad parts are Bidens”,

A close second “if you remove the negative parts GDP actually grew 3%”

Btw, the gender names was onion.

Trump on stealth:

“I’m not a huge believer in stealth because stealth is, basically, a lot of it’s the design and the shape. I’m sure you maybe think, but also, if that’s the case, they’re gonna figure it out pretty fast, I think. So you’re gonna design an ugly plane for stealth reasons, and then six months later, they’re gonna figure out this and then you’re stuck with a plane.”

Clearly far more important for a next gen fighter is for it to be coated in gold leaf from tip to tail with a kind of Doric motif at the front. That always looks super classy.

"My uncle was a big, strong guy, very smart, at MIT.  He was the smartest ever at MIT, there in Missouri.  He came up to me with tears in his eyes.  He never cried before, big strong guy, but he came to me with tears in his eyes.  'Sir,' he said, 'I want you to know the power of the nuclear, it's beyond anything ever thought of, or even, you know, it's unthinkable, the power.'  He told me all about the nuclear, about the balls and the mushrooms and the nuclear, all of it.  That's why I know so much about the nuclear."
