The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

"Meet Rebecca"

Rebecca definitely looked like a girl. But if Rebecca is a biological male, then she should
compete against biological males in sports. If this means that Rebecca would not make the
male high school team, then so be it. I played sports all of my youth thru HS, there were
tryouts for each team. Kids got cut from the team in tryouts. Had it happen to friends of
mine. It sucked for them, but they survived. They still played rec league sports, just
did not make the HS teams. None of the one's cut were scarred for life. And if I would have gone
to college right out of HS, and tried out for the College hoops team, I would have gotten cut.
I played ball against a number of college players, did just fine in pickup games, but they had too
much size for me. A few years later, when I did put myself thru college, I had no desire to
try to play sports. It was just a game, there were far more important things to spend my time and energy on than organized sports. But to this day, am still super active. Xc-Ski'd 16.5 miles today, on a tough, hilly trail system. Will do it again tomorrow, before the warmup hits.

Do you want the Dems to die on this hill, on this battle ? I want them to take Trump and MAGA down. Newsom is doing what it takes to possibly win. The Country is at stake, which trumps ( excuse the pun ) sports.
