  1. Am reduced to listening the game on OB- have to say the new broadcast team is better than I expected and not bad at all.
  2. Uvalde Police Lied: A Teacher Never Left The Door Open Law enforcement tried to blame a teacher who left a door open for the Uvalde shooting, but surveillance video shows that the school employee closed the door. https://www.politicususa.com/2022/05/31/uvalde-police-lied-a-teacher-never-left-the-door-open.html
  3. Have been online with BellMTS for nearly an hour now and getting the runaround. Horrid rendition of the anthem.
  4. Apparently not, according to Bell/MTS tech support.
  5. Thanks but paying $50+ to watch a preseason game is not cost-effective.
  6. Our Bell-MTS tv service is down and will be for at least the next 24 hours- does anyone know if the game is being streamed anywhere else, like Youtube?
  7. Did something else happen that you are not telling us about?
  8. Credible reports from BBC and Al-Jazeera have been consistent in reporting that the Russians made some advances in Donetsk but have bogged down and even lost significant ground in the north-east.
  9. And its not as if the Fraser Institute has ever parroted the right-wing agenda.
  10. You may wish to consider Comwave or an IPTV package.
  11. And yet, the healthiest economies along with the lowest violent crime rates and the highest public satisfaction (Norway, Sweden, Finland, Denmark, Germany, Holland etc have thr highest corporate and personal income taxes and tightly regulated industries are....gasp... socialist. Every time the minimum wage or wages in general rise, there are dire predictions of economic doom. And yet, they never seem to come to pass.
  12. It probably all comes down to Margaret Thatcher's attitude about her slashing services and supports for the poor, disabled and mentally ill. When questioned about how she could conscience grinding the less fortunate, she said," F..k them. They don't vote anyways."
  13. The concept was the assumption that the very wealthy would be magnanimous and shower the poorer. The reality is that damned few wealthy choose to do that. The wealthy buy bigger yachts, more spacious homes, more expensive vehicles and use the money to build gated communities or even buy whole islands and always have. Democratic governments are supposed to create and sustain dynamic balances between all the competing social forces and strata. Another nice theory.
  14. For fans of John Oliver, here is this week's look at American politics:
  15. That otta slow down the Rider passing game.
  16. Not the proper context. Ronnie Raygun was given this adage so as to justify making the rich richer on the assumption that there would be the infamous "Trickle Down Theory" which was instantly rephrased to "Tinkle Down Theory"- a very apt description of the Reagan era. Under his administration, the S&L debacle and the Enron catastrophe happened.
  17. Price of gas in France A thief in Paris planned to steal some paintings from the Louvre. After careful planning, he got past security, stole the paintings, and made it safely to his van. However, he was captured only two blocks away when his van ran out of gas. When asked how he could mastermind such a crime and then make such an obvious error, he replied, "Monsieur, that is the reason I stole the paintings--- I had no Monet To buy Degas To make the Van Gogh." See if you have De Gaulle to send this on. to someone else. I sent i on because I figured I had nothing Toulouse .
  18. Good in theory but ain't gonna happen. There's no way to rule out stupidity.
  19. If memory serves, Pipkin has a rep of being resistant to coaching and going off script. Not sure if that would be a good fit for O'Shea.
