    Didn’t see that you were banned. You probably weren’t able to the PM I sent you and Old Spanish Trail in response to his reply to you.

    Wokeism is now a banned term? Amazing. I got a six month ban for ridiculing Pelosi for mixing up Mays with McCovey on May’s birthday. She posted a pic of her with McCovery. Not that they are from her Congressional District or anything. No prior warnings, no nothing. . . .

    Several years ago, we were in another drought. EBMUD encouraged folks to cut back voluntarily. So we did, lost plants, etc. but cut our usage significantly.  The next year, the drought worsened and they mandated cuts imposing penalties for anyone who used 90% or more of their usage from the prior year. I may be off on my percentage, but because we had cut back the prior year, we had an artificially low baseline and were screwed because we did what they asked the prior year and cut back. . . .

    I live in the area, and pay EBMUD a ridiculous amount for water. Decided to let t he plants die this year rather than water them as it is cheaper to relandscape than water. That said, I don’t recall anything from EBMUD stating that my usage as a customer was fair game to release to the masses.

    If that is indeed part of the public domain, I’d love to see an expose on the power and water usage of those in Congress pushing “green” initiatives.

    Like Tulsi a lot. Have for a few years now. Like Nikki Haley, too. What a ticket that would be. . ..

    Thought I posted something similar a few weeks back. Oakland was lamenting how far their kids had fallen behind, and similarly, CA as a whole.

    No shit Sherlock. You reap what you sow.  . . .Oh, and the gun homicide rate in Oakland is way, way up. Go figure.

    Love Bernie, he’s been fantastic as Waldorf on Sesame Street for as long as I can remember. . . .

    15% increase over 50 years?!? Didn’t even keep up with inflation . . .

    Not surprising at all. Remind me, who’s the congressional rep for SF?

    What is surprising is that Concord, CA is the happiest city in the country, according to a similar survey

    I’ve had lots of friends head for the Deep South and Texas. When the daughter is done with high school, we may do the same. Though it would be tough for a few years after as she wouldn’t have a connection to her childhood and high school friends. . . .

    Who would you rather have as President, Harris or Newsom? Harris is completely incompetent and would get nothing accomplished. Newsom on the other hand, could be the final nail in the coffin for the US.

    Biden will hang on until Jan 20, 2023. Then whoever takes his place, Kamala or Newsom can run as the incumbent and theoretically could hold office for 10 years. . . .

    Was on campus for the first time in years, well at least the academic areas. Opulence beyond comprehension. Lost a lot, there too, I think. One of my favorite memories from Stanford was dragging a keg out to the softball fields at Wilbur Friday afternoons freshman year. One of the guys in our dorm was a fullback, and occasionally would show up with Elway and company. Fun times. Doubt that’d be allowed these days. Lady mud wrestling and tossing burning couches off roofs is probably frowned upon, too.

    And by the way. I don’t support Trump. I support his policies almost completely, and enjoy his sense of humor. Though, as I’ve not met him, I seriously doubt I’d like the guy.

     

    But more to your point, you’d charge him treason and push to see him hanged in the public square, as that is the penalty for treason, correct? How Stalinesque.

    What game? I asked a specific question and you answered with a rant about Trump that has nothing to do with the the question I asked. Now you’re taking your ball and going home. Wow.
