That's probably why he used to be-devil our defense most of the time. Thanks.

I think words are the most deadly weapon in history.

Oh man, what do you say to that?

I'm torn. I always liked the whole unknown factor of exploration in TOS. However, I think it might be cool to have a series somehow related to the 31st century and the time travel aspect with that character Daniels from Enterprise.

If there was ever a scam that keeps poor people poor, its the lottery.

After seeing the last Thor trailer, I am pretty excited. It seems a little cheesy at times, but in a great way. Thor is by far my favorite character in the MCU. And I love the music!

Nobody complained when people tore down statues of Saddam and beat it with their shoes. I have no problem with removing these statues to the confederacy, but I oppose lawlessness.

Its expanding outside the original scope of statues of the Confederacy. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4808254/Protesters-want-removal-statue-controversial-doctor.html This guy was a horrible human being.

Any other IT folks having trouble getting to https://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/ ? Appears down.

Sitting here patching ESXi servers because I have nothing else to do while waiting for EMC support to "proactively" fix a controller on our XtremIO storage. Been going since 9PM Eastern and its worse off than when they started. Finance systems are shut down waiting for these guys to be done. Supposed to be a one hour job, and its been five. Another reason we left Dell/EMC for Pure Storage. So glad I start a new job in July and won't have to deal with this operational crap.

Totally agree. Very well done.

No they don't. https://www.plannedparenthood.org/learn/pregnancy/considering-adoption Just like cancer screenings, all they do is say go talk to one of these places on the approved list. Anyway. The problem with the GOP is not evangelicals, as much as some of you folks hate them. The problem is that its run by a bunch of stubborn old white men who are more about economic self service. It could still hold onto social conservativism and move more moderate in things like economics. You're average GOP conservative would follow economically to the middle.

Why do you have to bring the abortion industry into this?

Looks like 980 stopped simulcasting on 92.7 FM. That sealed it for me. Now the frequency is an alias of 102.3. Blech.

I'm waiting to see if they sneak in Mephisto somewhere. There was that whole story where he tried to capture Thor's soul, but got Loki's instead I think. And of course he was Thanos' henchman with the Infinity Gauntlet story.

It looked like Cate Blanchette to me, and she's playing Hela. Or maybe my eyes are going bad...

Hela, not Surtur.

Truth is considered bold these days I guess. You wrote one sentence or so in order to pay lip service to existing laws, but wrote an entire paragraph on why they shouldn't be enforced, which pretty much seems to be applicable to anybody but a violent criminal.

Don't you think that those who employ illegal immigrants at all should be subject to the law? Not just those that exploit them. Actually, I'm not sure you do "get that they are here illegally" at all. I'm all for compassion for people, but at the same time, a law is useless if not enforced.

http://www.latimes.com/nation/la-na-evangelical-refugee-20170215-story.html Great article on a pastor who decided to guide his flock down the narrow path of Christianity instead of the political path. Even if you are an atheist, you should read this.

That and "fake news."

Great blog post from a Christian pastor I have met several times. http://joelrainey.blogspot.com/2017/02/straw-men-dead-children-and-syrian.html Straw Men, Dead Children, and the Syrian Refugee Crisis More at link. WARNING: the image in the title block may be disturbing to some.

Sounds cool. Unfortunately, we are stuck with Identrust PKI's or CAC. Kind of excited when I get to play with new tech. We recently decided to change course on our virtual backups. Made an investment in Rubrik after years with Veeam. https://www.rubrik.com/solutions/backup-recovery/

My BIL served a boneless turkey breast instead of a whole turkey and it was delicious.

My sister is hosting Thanksgiving dinner this year. All we have to bring is dessert. My wife made home made whoopie pies!! I am hosting Christmas dinner. Doing a glazed ham with this recipe. Done it for about the last 7-8 years and everybody raves about it. http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/emeril-lagasse/sugarcane-baked-ham-with-spiced-apples-and-pears-recipe3.html#! Also trying to convince the better half to let me cook a goose as well. Every time I mention a goose to anybody they seem to think its a bad idea, sometimes even citing that it's dark meat, which doesn't make sense. I love dark meat instead of old dry white meat.
