    Yes we know you says that for weeks, "next week" , "unfolded files" etc.. and nothing never happens.

    Wishing will... (at least I learned that expression)

    Yes well my grandson is impatient for Christmas too.

    (Do you mean ‘wishful thinking ‘?)

    I think it’s “wishing well” but his auto correct may have changed it

    poor skill language + orthographic being in french can lead to poetic sentences :)

    We are just settling in to an administration with a standard politician who will do very little for us, after having endured four years with a mentally retarded narcissist who did very little for us. Nothing will change other than if you hated the one guy more, you'll be slightly less annoyed come public address time. What's been supremely disappointing is how the masses of one party have supported the narcissist even when he really does something bad. It's all for the glory of making "the libtards cry!" Being a Libertarian through all of these sort of shit leaves you detached and kind of numb. Maybe we can get away from only seeking to make others cry for amusement and rebuild our country after the devastation of this virus.

    I suspect the French have a very rude expression for most things. It's why I like 'em. :D

    That sounds suspiciously like the foundation of an exit strategy before a tactical retreat:cool:

    Can you hear singing in the distance?

    Your arbiter of bias doesn’t exactly come with its own reputation intact. ‘Armchair’ and ‘unscientific’ crop up a lot.

    That’s fair enough but self described fact checkers are often no more or less bias free than any other source. Quite a few are designed with their own prejudices quietly disguised as ‘objectivity’.

    The Relief of Lucknow is a great story

    However who is going to play the role of the heroic 78th Highlanders coming to the rescue of the Trump Administrations tactless and incompetent East India Company:confused:
