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.

Is anyone old enough to remember 1/20/1981? Reagan's inauguration day? Incompetent Jimmy Carter, turned out resoundingly by Ronald Reagan, went STRAIGHT TO GERMANY TO WELCOME THEM HOME. Carter did not go home, he did not pass go, he did not collect $200, he went DIRECTLY from the inauguration ceremonies.

I wonder if the Iranian wild eyed mullahs got a clue that their days of jacking this country around were about to come to an immediate disconclusion?

Nah... prolly just a coincidence that they found their truth on the same day as Reagan taking office!
