"Out of the Blue" is such an underrated album and ELO is a far better group than they've ever been given credit for.

In other ELO news, in 2022 Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs is releasing a SACD of 'Eldorado', remastered from the original master tape. This is the first ELO remaster ever issued by MFSL.

Be sure to do action replay and magnify that fortion.....

Like the nameless internet talking head says, please defend him then tell us all about how Biden can't speak well.

Not to mention that the conspiracy theory he's spouting was thoroughly debunked the day after the idiotic accusation was made in November 2020, they action replayed the magnified fortion using the fashioned tape and D'oh, nothing.
He should have deengineered his speech (another ignorant Trumpism from the same speech).

Have a covfefe day.

PS, Trump testifies under oath today, so expect perjury charges tomorrow. You know he cannot ever tell the truth, so it's guaranteed he's going to lie under oath today.

Wrong. He admitted it, and admitted knowing it was wrong.
They had him on tape telling the Russian ambassador to ignore the Obama sanctions because Trump would remove them asap, so he had no other option.
He also admitted to lying about it under oath to the fbi (tried to hide it because he knew it was illegal, possibly treason), then tried to backtrack when his deal didn't seem so good anymore.

Then he was pardoned by Trump, they didn't just drop the case you fucking liar.

Accepting the pardon is an admission of guilt, (edit: something Flynn has now done at least three separate times on these charges) and legally requires a dismissal which the judge granted, but specifically said he was still guilty.

Wrong president....it was Trump who deferred to Putin over our own intelligence agencies. "I have president Putin, he just said it's not Russia. I will say this. I don't see any reason why it would be," President Trump said. Trump who turned a blind eye to Russian assassinations. Trump who recognized Russian Crimea and who withheld defense funding and aid from the Ukraine, giving Russia a huge leg up in their expansion into Ukraine.

But they do have the pee tape, no wonder bunker baby is terrified of them and was their sniveling bitch for four years.

Your video, Passenger taped to seat after attacking flight attendants, has made it into the Top 15 New Videos listing. Congratulations on your achievement. For your contribution you have been awarded 1 Power Point.

I used to have a VCR tape of old-timey newsreels from the 30s and one of them was a story about a dude who did this kinda thing to his car. He's showing this backward-car shit off in the city and some cop walks up to him, looks at the car, WHACKS THE DUDE WITH A FUCKING BATON, then points for him to GTFO with a "ged da fuck odda hehr!" expression. The best part is that everyone looks like they're having a great ol' time, including the dude who just got brained by Boston's finest. The guy's smiling while O'Malley the Copper looks like he's debating taking another swing.

If that dude with the car had been black, the tone of that newreel would have been a weeeeee bit different, especially the ending.

It's impossible to find now, but Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab's Ultradisc of 'Meddle' has a recording of Echoes taken from the original master tape. If the only version of the song you've heard is the muddy version on the original release, the MFSL version is almost like a totally different song. It takes something that's already beautiful and deifies it. It is the absolute definitive version of the song.

Also, David Gilmour's version of Echoes off "Live in Gdansk" is uplifting, powerful and heart-breaking all at the same time. Richard Wright plays keyboard; he knows he's dying of cancer and he knows this is the very last time he and his friend David will play the song together. Gilmour feels like he's pouring his heart out to Wright and together, they give the song, and the legendary keyboardist, the sendoff they both deserve.

Richard Wright died one week before "Live" was released, passing on too early at 64.

Just that little issue of his being an antisemite, caught on tape with Nixon discussing stopping the Jews from dragging the country down the drain. Pobody’s nerfect, putting him on a pedestal only sets him up for a fall.

Side note, this story is almost 3 years old.

should heed newt on that tangled.

that's the straight dope.

they had folks on tape talking about how they shut down power to the state. they laughed about it.

seriously, it might open yer eyes. if anything, you could read how a DEMOCRAT governor got recalled and was replaced by a REPUBLICAN!!!... due to the evilness of Enron.

so at least, there is an *eye-roll* a happy ending /s.

Yes....like Texas has no standing to sue other states for how they handled the election. The idea is asinine....but I hope other states start suing Texas over, let's say, gun laws, or immigration laws. If one state can sue another because their legislatures disagree, we are going to need a new court system.

________________________________________________________________

The ones they could VERIFY!?! They didn't verify any of those claims....mainly because they weren't a bit true. Their stack of "affidavits" was a print out of claims from their hotline, all unsigned, most anonymous, and a huge percentage was trolling jokes, which they admitted in court. That's the "unsound methodology".... offering a public bribe of $1 million to anyone who could lie convincingly enough about democratic election fraud to be believed in court, then pretending every attempt at that lie was a real honest affidavit. I think they verified 4 people that voted twice using dead relatives....all republicans. In fact, every single vote fraud case since 2016 has been a republican.

No, I taped the game....I'm only interested in the commercials. Foolsball is the Devil!

Yes.
Also a good idea to check that your safety rope is not on the wrong side of the cut....and not a bad idea to be sure your backup isn't directly below you.
The right failed on all counts and taped the throttle on their chainsaw fully open and pulled off the chain brake.
Right now I feel like they're hovering mid air like Wiley Coyote, holding a little sign saying "uh-oh".

The last paragraph addresses the irony, which is the entirety of my first comment. I did not expect him, when pushing for a legal/policy solution to her problem, to then start attacking red tape for building codes. Enough loans regulation and you'll have the same thing - complaints about not being able to get a loan and the extended processing times.. Then Bill will do a schtick showing us

I think that's at the discretion of the judge, if you asked for 15%, likely you'll get your principal back, if you asked for 1500%, chances are you won't get a dime back as punishment, and may end up owing the borrower if you went overboard trying to collect.

I live in California, building codes change constantly. I agree, it is maddening and often backwards. He was specifically talking about codes for building stand alone solar, which are newer building codes. Even old building codes are often poorly thought out and contradictory. I'm not saying there isn't an abundance of red tape here, especially for building.
That said, his contractor should have been aware of all codes, submitted his plan, and would have approval or notes on what to change in weeks tops. There's something wrong when it takes over a year to get a shed built, some reason his plans weren't approved like they weren't to code.
Citation : personal experience - I installed solar in California, it took 3 days for my permit approval....and only that long because my contractor was being lazy.

That's the thing I disagree with, no new laws are needed at all, just a removal of exemptions/deregulations for businesses that pay large enough bribes (contributions) to elected officials. Even making all credit businesses operate on the same rules, allowing them 30% interest, seems ok, but that isn't reality today. It's unconscionable to allow 1600% interest on loans peddled to desperate people that don't actually qualify for a real, legitimate line of credit, many of whom don't understand it's what they're agreeing to, but the payday loan lobby is well funded and connected.
Citation:
Although U.S. states set their own maximum legal interest rates, a Supreme Court interpretation of the National Bank Act of 1864 preempted state usury laws and created a path toward a national consumer lending economy. The most important federal case in credit card interest rate deregulation was decided in 1978.

Her problems were multifold. The predatory loan took a fixable issue, her terrible customer service, and compounded it with insurmountable and ever expanding debt, which in turn undoubtedly hurt her customer service more, thus increasing her debt..... It sounds like she never should have purchased a service oriented business, and likely overextended herself from day one just to do it.

I'm unsure of your point in the last paragraph.
