It is really one step beyond....

 It's just a jump to the left
And then a step to the right
 With your hands on your hips
You bring your knees in tight
But it's the pelvic thrust
That really drives you insane

Of course she is a buzzkill.... just look at that daguerreotype portrait of her sitting there.....

What happened to me is that in Crash #1 I tripped as the Sessions table in the database was being corrupted, fell face first onto the floor and was knocked unconscious.... went through the concussion protocol and wasn't cleared to post until Crash #3 was underway....  during Crash #4 I was nearly crushed to death by the Topics table falling to the ground.....  both legs pinned under the records....  barely able to breath....   if the "hero for our times" hadn't come along to dig me out, you guys would have been fighting about me with inappropriate posts in the Obituary thread at this point....

"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."

What, no patronizing ‘we got im now’...? You’re slipping.

Yes, biased source is reporting direct quotes from people and directly from the indictment. How horrible. Nobody made Giuliani talk to the Atlantic. Get a bleeping grip.

"Got 'im now" is getting old...need fresher material.  I'm afraid I just don't jump when the press cracks the whip anymore.  Since the press never asks for comments from the the target anymore, I must wait until target can speak up for himself.  It's the hazards of living in an environment when there is no longer a press that does the old "5-Ws" approach to reporting.  That means I have to do the waiting for the full story, as the press used to do in the past.

Sue me.  How many times have I been burned because of incomplete stories in the Age of Trump?  You have caught me in that your own self, so now I am more cautious.

You're wise beyond your years, CL. Too many axes being ground to go off half cocked anymore. The media - any media - has largely destroyed its own credibility - anyone who takes what they say at face value these days is more seeking validation for their own POV than they are searching for the truth.

And the fact that the target has found a way around their filter is driving them insane.  !! Just for you @edpc

I know, but it bugs me to do it that way. That implies that the period belongs to the quote, not the entire sentence.

I have that same problem with the period/quotation mark issue.  I actually got into a bit of a discussion about it with my Honors English class back in college.  The word is meant to be in scare quotes alone, not part of the sentence!  At the end, do you know what happened?

The Copyright ran out, so now I can't collect royalties on it, leaving me with just the popcorn concession to live on.

Well, if you’re going to harangue me for posting ‘biased sources,’ perhaps you want to take a shot at Myst for posting this thread, sourced with an article from The Hill. Perhaps I’m out of the loop and they’ve become conservative friendly, now?

I thought I made it clear as to why I post material other people generally wouldn’t, in our private exchange, the other day. Since it seems I have to reiterate things, I’m sick and effing tired of the snide BS and oblique comments. There are people that purposely troll, here. I’m not one of them.
I disagree.  Circle gets the square.

Let's wait a few news cycles for the real information to start coming out.

Really?

Next you'll want people to read the article before posting.

I don't see much point in arguing about Angels dancing on a pin. This looks bad for Rudy, but I'll wait a bit before calling for frog marching.

Dramatic happens to be one of my many middle names.

Speaking of a buzzkill, according to Strunk, that period belongs inside (contained within) the closing quotation mark.  (Same holds for true for any terminal punctuation.)

"Shut up!" she explained.

Screw Strunk, they didn't help us in Normandy.

My Pappy was too busy to help in Normandy. He was busy killing Japs in Iwo Jima.

Keep in mind the federal prosecutors in this case are SDNY. Can’t help but thinking that colors this story in some way.
