    Try living in the south. If the weather forecasts a 10% chance of snow on Saturday, and its Tuesday, accidents will increase by 60% on the commute home every night in between. We will also have a month long shortage of bread, milk and eggs at the grocery store. Apparently, french toast and soggy milk and egg sandwiches are all that can be cooked during winter weather.

    I mostly watched it so I could watch Nancy Pelosi over Trump's shoulder.

    The signals she would use to either allow or not allow the lefts side of the aisle to applaud or not.

    This is all I hear when he talks, just finish every sentence with "moose and squirrel."

    “If I had not been elected president of the United States, we would right now, in my opinion, be in a major war with North Korea." Over Moose and Squirrel.

    This is our new American moment. There has never been a better time to start living the American Dream. To catch Moose and Squirrel. giphy (2).gif

    Coworkers who send emails asking when a product will ship to our customer. Followed by in the next sentence, "is it back from the outside processor yet?"

    After explaining that no, it has not even left for the outside processor-scheduled to ship tomorrow, they ask, "when will it be back? When will it be shipping to customer. Need to give customer a ship date."

    After explaining that they return truck in next Thursday truck (a fact this person knows) and will ship on Friday, I get "we need these back before that......blah blah"

    WTF dude??? Why not just lead with that and ask for expedited shipping and processing?

    My response is below? Too much?

    I'm glad you have a sense of humor, Germ. I surely don't mean anything personal towards you concerning politics. The Wolverine hate's real, though. ;)

    I am really entertained by the wildlife biologists that work for the Forest service and F&W. Ilse Royal had a wolf problem so they artificially added 3 wolves last year. Kinda funny the last wolf before the restock said the hell with it and headed back to the mainland over ice, well one of the 3 that were transplanted said the hell with it and headed for the mainland over the ice. When you play god and then god laughs at you it is hilarious.

    Everything race based these days. Absurd. Adidas having to remove an all white shoe that honored African Americans during black history month. Because of backlash...because the shoe was, oh my goodness, white. Now people cannot even honor others without having to worry about what color something may be. Pitting our brother and sister Americans against one another for political and financial gain. VOTE these bums out.

    The bad part about doing that is I'm even more afraid of who would be voted in to replace them.

    Could you imagine a congress full of AOC's.

    So, sitting here tonight I think a compromise on the wall can be had.

    Pelosi, Feinstein and the other CA Democrats are not supportive of a physical wall. Cameras, drones, foot patrol and other technology are sufficient.

    Why not take the physical barrier down at the southern CA border and relocate that 150 miles of barrier where it is currently needed, replace it with the aforementioned technological surveilance and discuss it again in 6 months?

    It is February 6th and we turned the a/c tonight because today was almost 80 and got the house up to 75. My wife and sleep better when it is below 70. The a/c on in FEBRUARY! I would much rather be paying a high gas bill for using the heat than a high electric bill for the a/c. Gas is way cheaper than electric and would mean that it actually feels like winter instead if May outside. If this keeps up summer will be another ballsbeque.

    That's good...better yet while we're at it let's just wall off California. Population is already majority illegal alien + their anchor-baby kids. Not a fake stat.

    Many of the rest are homeless and/or drug addicts. That state is ruined forever. Sucks because it's gorgeous- prettiest state in the mainland 48.

    I like the use of both drones and wall. We are going to need this guy to catch the drones transporting drugs over the wall. I want this job!!!
