Well, there goes my enjoyment of all episodes of "Murder, She Wrote" featuring Knepper.

For some reason, I have the most difficult time mustering sympathy for people who refer to the NFL and to the players who "take a knee" as "N*****s for Life."

I'm not particularly fond of CNN, but I can see what the DOJ is doing here, and I think it's dirty. I'm VERY worried that AT&T will sell off CNN, because, as always, money talks and talks loudest.

I guess Michelle Obama was right: when they go low, you go high.

You certainly did. Damn. Even I, the misanthrope, am having a hard time with the "damned human race" these days. All these allegations about all these monsters is showing me a side of human nature I NEVER enjoy seeing.

Wow. Heather Unruh. Hearing that name takes me back, lol. (She was an anchor here, at our NBC affiliate, a few eons ago.)

On the one hand, it makes sense. Democrats know Black women will not vote Republican (especially now, after Charlottesville). However, what they might fail to realize is that Black women could still vote third-party or just plain stay home. I still save money by buying my regular prescription drugs at Sam's Club. However, for the past year, I've stressed a tad more than usual about developing a disease that would require medical tests or lengthy hospital stays.

That doesn't surprise me, or that guns was number two. At the end of the day, all the dog whistles over "issues" like whether one should stand up for or salute the flag are just that: dog whistles.

Apropos of nothing, but I will have medical insurance again in 2018 -- and with a $0 monthly premium. And all I had to do was promise to file an income tax return for the 2018 year.

In that case...maybe a secret homosexual relationship gone bad? I'm kidding.

Dear. God. You'd think Harvey Weinstein was a politician, not a film producer. AFAIC, castration ain't good enough for men like Kevin Spacey.

And I can't blame him. Moments of silence won't fix what's so obviously wrong here. Welp. Somebody had to say it.

Pardon the language, Maureen O'Hara was one ballsy woman. She didn't take any guff from anyone.

I think so.

The Doctors Discussion Thread
Agree. I tried to watch some of the Pollocks' stuff, but I had to bail out. Maggie's story (with her growing suspicions that she was losing her sanity) bordered on insulting; and it was exasperating me how characters like Althea, who was still in the middle of that tiresome mess with John Morrison, had to behave like a total idiot to keep the plot from coming undone.

IA. It couldn't have been easy for Chynna to realize that her father had been such a monster to anyone, let alone one of her siblings. And to have it out in public, with the entire world knowing what Chynna, herself, said she had told only a few people in the years before? If she hadn't have broken down emotionally after that ordeal, I'd have been shocked. I'll admit that part of me suspects the reason why Bijou didn't stand with Mackenzie and Chynna is because she, too, had been molested by John but isn't in a place mentally and emotionally to accept what appears to be something the rest of the family knew for many years. (Mackenzie herself admitted she retracted what she had told her half-sister when she saw that Bijou wasn't able to cope with the information.) But that's just my thinking.

What sort of "bad history" exists between Richard and Harry Dreyfuss?

Oh, God, that was so horrible. At least Chynna stood by Mackenzie, though.

God knows Hillary isn't among my all-time favorites, but people REALLY need to lay off the woman. Whatever "offenses" she might have committed are more than in the past and (AFAIK) beyond the scope of authority for our justice system. Trump Nation keeps accusing the other side of refusing to get over the fact that Trump won and she lost; but really, to me, it's more the other way around. They're the ones who keep bringing it up.

1) No, you didn't. 2) That's your right (if you did, which, if I wasn't clear before, I doubt). 3) Shut up.

As Minnie Driver said to John Cusack in "Grosse Pointe Blank," there are certain things that you don't do in a civilized society. Robbing defenseless, underaged boys of their innocence and security would be high on anyone's list.
