Putin probably needs to have a talk with Sergey Andreev, and find a replacement soon.

What happens if Donald Trump wins the election?
Will the US congress impeach him?
Will he immediately ban all trade with China?
Will he invade Mexico?
Will he ban the concept of Global Warming as it is (as he claims) a fabrication of the Chinese government?
Will the CIA assassinate him before he is sworn in?
Will he construct a one hundred story "Trump Tower" in DC?
Will he make a point to offend every sovereign nation on Earth once a day for his entire time in office?

Not sure, but the one who "would tell it like it is " sure comes off as pretty delicate when _others_ tell it like it is about him

And the "maverick" non-politician who does not read the polls keeps quoting the bible as his favorite book, not being able to address followup questions : https://www.google.com/search?q=tru...=UTF-8#q=how+many+times+did+trump+cited+bible

I can't say I completely understand how US elections work, but why is he leading in the polls? How does negative media attention actually make you more popular in preliminary surveys? It seems highly ironic that people don't take this stuff seriously but end up complaining about how their presidents are incompetent.

I have this persistent feeling Trump will soon be revealed to be a descendent of Moe Howard.

Indeed. I was hoping for a Tony Soprano / Paul Vitti presidential ticket.
If we're going to have crooked politicians let's be honest about it.

A friend from France once remarked, during Watergate:
"You Americans' attitudes seem strange to us.
You expect honesty in your politicians but don't care how many chemicals and filler additives you eat.
We French expect corrupt public servants but you'd better not mess with our food."

Maybe they're on to something.

" The Visit" movie, not to my taste. Just needed to break my routine, but could not find any movie that seemed appealing.

I'm appalled: I just found out one of my favorite authors has killed off one of his best characters.

Saw this guy , in an outdoor yuppie bar, drinking wine with a straw. He also put some ice cubes in it. Maybe it is the new fashion. Maybe he ordered an ice Merlot or something of that sort..

Koch brothers put two rockets on the surface: a small, pudgy one with a NASA sign and a gigantic one , with a VIAGRA painted on it :).

New strategy for getting more quarters for washing machine when paying: I "add change to the next quarter" . So if I need to pay, say, $4.33, I use a $5 bill and get $.67 in change, instead I pay $5.08 , so the change back is $0.75, i.e., 3 quarters.

Uhm, even if there is water, Mars is still more than a small hike away. There's no traffic either, hitchhiking won't work :<
The planet doesn't have any magnetic field, so the sun will destroy any and every life there could possibly be.

Less than 24 hours later, and he already has more than a million followers.
Ha! He's still only following one thing/person: The NSA

My random thought is...I wonder when Greg's automated "courtesy bump" is going to kick in and knock my quantum physics question back up to the top of the totem pole so I don't end up having the only question in the QM section that never got answered :olduhh:

Hi, a known person in one of my previous companies asked me to come back and work as a front end developer in his company . I like user-defined XML character mappings and the project offers me good chances to visit and work on world wide 's large web sites of big corps. :D (I am not their creators but at least I have sneaked my head in there). I need advice :((
BTW, I saw my Gold Member gone! :oldcry:
