That's the truth. Like McDonalds is a real estate company not a burger company so it goes with many medical practices: several doctors and a few offices in the same practice sort of thing. Sometimes they'll buy their own MRI, for example, make it it's own entity then refer you for an MRI. A different desk person in the same building but as a different business petitions insurance for approval. Lot's of ways to scam the system.

You toss big, fat softballs and you should expect a swing. I hope your heart issues resolve easily, for sure, but the bills can be huge and they say there are no atheists in foxholes. When it was my turn in the barrel for open heart surgery Medicare and my AARP supplement paid every penny. I was happy I supported the program all along.

Of course, otherwise there would be no reason to moderate your approval even if your humongous medical bills were being subsidized by cantaloupe pickers.

If nothing else, our Tump loving friends who continue to explain why they couldn't see it coming, please take notice not of just Putins smile but also of his two thumbs up.

So much for the enlightenment. Some of us want to return to Bronze age thinking, some of us want to go boldly into a future where yesterdays ideas are the valued building blocks upon which we stand to look even further forward.

I can understand being emotional about freedoms you wanted for your fellow human beings denied because in spite of your best efforts you came up short and failed. But being emotional because freedoms you wanted desperately to deny your fellow human beings are about to be granted despite your best efforts is, to my mind, absolutely antithetical to the idea of being a representative serving in a representative democracy. We will never be able to move forward as a society, moreover as a society able to coexist to the point of integration with other societies, until all societies purge this nonsense from their bodies. Hence my continued pessimism.

a pistol packin' paternalistic 'piscopalian peanut lander?

Your one warning: you don't do that enough!.

You've totally lost your novelty.

I can't say what or where I'm going with this but to be absolutely clear, I struggle with being a participant in a forum where our fellow citizens rights are constantly discussed as being possibilities. If anything causes me to be gone from here it is this.

Glad that I am a stand up guy in your book. But please know that I have some real stand up guys, and girls, that are both pitchers and catchers (and both) who are my delightful friends. Hence my offense when the discrimination card gets played.

When it comes to gay prostitution I am comfortable with my position.

I'll trade a Ruger M77 (killed 10 Elk) and a Remington 870 (killed a bazillion waterfowl) for Brents worst AR rifle and pay shipping and fees both way's.

Yep, you're just a regular guy without agendas.

Bingo. End to a means, so entirely acceptable, I reckon. What I don't get is why the specter of that sort of thinking, and how it affects those not just nearby but peripherally and in not only geographical but in today and tomorrow terms, sits so easily with some. I get it that I'm my own version and that a lot of folks have ample, and probably very defensible, reasons for judging me an asshole. But I can only hope that no one can ever claim that I took favor, profit, or political gain from another's misfortune. Please note that I excluded schadenfreude, something from which none of us can honestly claim exemption.

Handled. I've blocked him, signed up for therapy, and have committed myself to humming a certain Bill Withers song every hour on the hour. I can do this thing.

Not doubt you put the same effort into solidifying that belief with facts as you have what else you believe. Have you received one of your coded messages confirming that he wasn't spying, even a little bit? After all, if he is just a nobody businessman caught up in worldwide injustice why wouldn't he have been freed in a swap by Trump long before Griner's stupidity cost the US a big bargaining chip?

So will the PT6 you sit behind when jumping but service life is seriously degraded and maintenance costs, including time down, increases a lot.

There are three pedestals on the podium, but you probably wouldn't know that either.

No, I mean a caricature like a hypothetical humorless brit whose petty agenda overwhelms his intelligence. I have no doubt that we'd send a wing of F-16's to Ukraine if they could fly and maintain them. Same with M1A1 tanks which run on Jet fuel not the diesel their supply chain can provide. Same with Bradley Fighting Vehicles etc. etc.

We are brother nations. Our fates are inextricably entwined and that's a good thing. The world we live in now is not the previous world. (being selfish, and a touch maudlin, I am adding a picture of my fathers B-24 on a bombing run. (He was a tail gunner, highly medaled including a purple heart and PUC). The US can afford to bear the burden for now but that will change if our brother nations don't step up. We have public opinion, too.

Can you for a single post not be a caricature? You know, that someone who defensibly will google until they believe they have an edge? Canadians are not awful they are just weak defense partners. For you to pop your chest out claiming Canadian fidelity because three guys kicked ass using American made rifles does, in the context of this thread, sort of label you as a .........

In this case chicks are more equal than others and Hallelujah! Neal Katyal was a star, absolutely. But Elizabeth Prelogar, our solicitor general, was a rock star. Ketanji Jackson Brown sorted out how to ask the same obvious question differently three times (if a state constitution gives a the legislature an authority does it make sense to conclude that authority could negate the authority granted them by the constitution) Even Amy Coney Barrett grasped the discontinuity. Thanks to the women, again, democracy may not be over.

You're right, as always. Let us know if you need three more sniper rifles or have you yet sorted out how to make those? Fun fact, the Canadian CA15C2 Sniper rifle is made by Christensen Arms. Guess where they are located.
