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.

On Mr Nasrallah's murder at the hands of Israel.

Perhaps the rainbow flags can be half staff. Perhaps buy a $5 tea or coffee with a friend, text each other while sipping it and comfort each other.

Please know I'm with you and that one day you'll feel better and just look around here for your destiny. One day, all your little beliefs and causes will be totally shelved, and you'll pursue 401K returns, and you'll be puckering up for your corporate overlords turned deities.

In other news, while I do not totally support either side.....once more what an awesome display of intelligence and skill by the Israelis.

Mind you, they've spent all of human history being targets.

(I guess that part is just a coincidence with no reason whatsoever. Must be the wrong brand of aftershave, I guess. )

But either way - amazing. They know when their enemies are taking a piss. And they know how to find them and target them with some level of precision.

I wonder if the Next Generation of Freedom Fighters and Soldiers are as brave and wise and forward thinking and committed as people like Mr Nasrallah. Or if they are just smartphone-social media toting snowflake kids who just want to be left alone to text and snap. Will be interesting to see. (It was Howard Dean who taught me that they are soldiers. And PA Liberals who taught me that one man's terrorist is another man's Freedom Fighter).
