    Hi Keith, I think that all of us who are opposed to the death penalty occasionally have these feelings. I know I do. But, I have not changed my mind yet. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi John, And, since this one was a black man, that probably just reinforces the response of our 'not so nice' * LEOs when they stop the next black driver. Jerry Baumchen * NOTE: I do not mean the vast majority LEOs who are very decent, responsible people.

    Hi Steve, Another female member of a number of US Teams back in the 70's was Karen Roach: rumor was that she was also CIA. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Robert, When all else fails, go for the tax returns. It is how they got Al Capone. IMO it will be a good day when he enters prison. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Robert, I think this is the first time I've ever gotten in ahead of you*: Best memes about the Capitol invasion - Page 5 - Speakers Corner - Dropzone.com Jerry Baumchen * It's that old time zone thingy.

    Hi Ken, When compared to where the bar was while Trump was in office, IMO it is quite high. Maybe not as high as some would want, but I go back to: He is not Trump. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Bill, Yuppers. I look at Biden being a success for one simple reason: He is not Trump. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Wendy, Re: I don't plan on divesting myself of all assets if I ever need nursing home care so that I can go on Medicaid I had to take my mother thru the MedicAid procedure/nightmare. She did have to divest herself of all of her assets; well, nearly all, she got to keep about $20k in the bank. Everything that you have given away, sold, etc, in the last 5 yrs goes into the MedicAid calculations. BTDT, Jerry Baumchen PS) And when she died, the state of Oregon got that $20k.

    Hi John, Yes, I know. Now, how about the answers to your two quizzes? Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Joe, And you would recommend? History and Etymology for affair. Middle English aferes "activities," affaire "enterprise," borrowed from Anglo-French afaire, affere "business, activity, enterprise, matter, topic, situation," from the phrase a faire "to do," from a "to" (going back to Latin ad) + faire "to do," going back to Latin facere.

    Hi John, I'm going out on a limb with this guess: Notorious womanizers. Jerry Baumchen PS) IMO Ike would not be on the list.

    Hi Joe, To me, that says delusional. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi John, OK, I'll take a guess: Mitch McConnell Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Dave, I think Nic means this: (I bet every AAD user manual states to turn off the AAD before driving with it), and in some cases doing so has put the AAD in to its plane mode (this has been the sub-topic of a recent discussion in a different thread). AAD is the maker of the Vigil; Advanced Aerospace Design ( I think ). Jerry Baumchen

    Hi folks, OK, now I know he is delusional: I stand before you this evening filled with confidence that in 2022, we are going to take back the House and we are going to reclaim the Senate — and then in 2024, a Republican candidate is going to win the White House. Now, compare that to this ( from the same article ): While a significant faction of the Republican Party hopes to move past Trump’s divisive leadership Donald Trump plans to affirm commitment to Republican Party - oregonlive.com Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Keith, Re: But I ramble. I'm with you. And, as we both know, you did not get a 'choice' when in the military. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Keith, Yup: It showed the largest proportion of deaths—29 percent—occurred in people ages 80 to 89. * Fact Check: Have 966 People Died After Receiving the COVID vaccine? (newsweek.com) Jerry Baumchen * The ones who have died here in Oregon have been the very elderly with underlying conditions; according to my local tv news. PS) The very first day of my Statistics class, the professor said, 'Nothing is 100% and nothing is zero %."

    Hi Bill, And, it looks like non of the R's are stepping up for him either; not even Sidney Powell. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Bill, Re: I think second degree manslaughter is the most likely I've thought this for some time now; for the same reasons you list. Jerry Baumchen
