    All that means is that he really is an alien. He’s been trying to get back home for years.

    Muscle development tends to cause that, but some things you just can’t hide in those swimsuits.

    I’ll say it again (and again …) We don’t need gun control. Let everyone who wants to have a gun, have as many of the darn things as they want. The amount of damage that a gun can do is extremely limited. Your granddaddy’s M1911A1 will raise one hell of welt if you hit someone with it. Done right, you might even kill him, but it will be up-close-n-personal, and would probably be easier to do it with a knife. The fundamental advantage of a gun is that it effects an action at a distance. Take that away, and a huge amount of crime, especially unsolved crime, goes away.

    We need to tax the livin’ hell out of ammo and make it as inconvenient to acquire as radioactive material of a comparable weight.

    When there’s a federal tax on ammo of, say 1000%, and you have to sign for the box with your “deadly materials permit”, you might want to rethink your choice of hobbies. (It’s a lot cheaper to learn how to juggle flaming axes.) Or even vocations, if you’re a criminal.

    I predict that Trump will do something that will make CNN rue the day they didn’t go with my “$10,000 Question” locked isolation booth approach …

    Oh, Mike, Mike, Mike… You missed a chance to have him make that sign with his LEFT hand, because when he practices it in the mirror …

    To have “brain freeze” one, perforce, must have a brain. The maga-polloi are immune to that malady.

    We go the other way: My wonderful wife gave me the complete DVD set of “The West Wing” for Christmas a few years back. It’s so refreshing to see brilliant, yet believably flawed people struggling to do their level-best for the good of the country.
