I was at the last Anaheim game with my son and about 11 other people there. Crickets !

What the heck is a “democratized work-force”? You mean a boss couldn’t tell a worker: “you know Mr. Smith this is not a democracy here. You do have a choice in the matter. You can follow our rules or you can go to work some place else.”

It dont matter what it means, since it aint gonna happen….There’s more than one way to organize work. Corporate-capitalism is just one way. There’s others. blah blah

Last game at Anaheim, must have been the Washington game, in 94. December 24. Rams went 4-12.

25,705 in attendance.

Rams lost 24 to 21. Ellard had 81 yards.

What did you think of the move to St.Louis back then? What were your thoughts.

Yeah, that thing is fucking-awesome.

So what killed em all off?

I dunno nuthin about prehistoric-history. They never taught that
in school.

Was it the Nazis? Or a plague? Mass suicide?

And homo sapiens wiped them out. The bloodbath was incredible, all over the world. Yuval Harari’s book was an eye-opener for me. I didn’t realize how many animals our species made extinct. And this continues today.

Is it considered “genocide” when it’s not human slaughter, but slaughter of animals by humans?

—————
Well did humans wipe out those big-ole ancient, giant big-toothed Mammals?

I just assumed somethin else happened to em.

Was it humans that hunted-em to death?

Man, that is almost as old as Waterfield. Imagine that. That shark may have seen Norm Van Brocklin in his prime.

“…Because radiocarbon dating does not produce exact dates, they believe that she could have been as “young” as 272 or as old as 512. But she was most likely somewhere in the middle, so about 400 years old.

It means she was born between the years of 1501 and 1744, but her most likely date of birth was in the 17th century…”

Well the article didnt address ‘trade pacts’ at all.

It did argue that robots were the future and meaningful, living-wage, human-jobs
are dwindling.

“Today, he says, a new and expensive Dutch-made system can take 20-foot sections of aluminum and churn out a finished rim in about 90 seconds. For that, the company would need only one operator, just to make sure that the machines don’t jam.

I am keeping the guys who catch the ball. That applies to WRs, TEs, RBs, and the defense.

Me too. So many of the draft-reports are about 40 times, and speed and
quickness and size and all that — but holding on to the damn ball
is no.1 for me.

Shaw, you mean.

DV was a figurehead.

So to bring it around, yes, Shaw was a better Anthem coach than Kroenke.

————–

Fine but don’t twist history. Facts are facts. Shaw wouldn’t even have kept his job after the 4-12 season in 98, had DV not met with Martz in the ‘big meeting’ and agreed that Shaw would continue as GM, only,
as long as he hired a new offensive astrologer.

Several things. One is her husband. Smart guy and our economy thrived under him. We can’t do a thing for the less fortunate unless we have a stronger economy. Another is her strength in the face of combat. She’s no pushover. I believe she’s sincere in her views on the struggles of those who are poor and sick. I supported her in her run against Obama even though my entire family supported Obama. I think her record as both Senator and Secretary of State was outstanding. I recognize there are issues that if you dislike her you can focus on (i.e. emails, etc) but that’s true of anyone running for office. Does she use political gamesmanship to accomplish stuff. Of course. Is she a “politician” as that word has come to mean over the years-of course. Can she be trusted-I don’t know and I doubt anyone does. Does she grate on my nerves when she speaks. Yes.

But even if I had nothing but negative views on her policies I would vote for her because of who she’s running against. The man is certifiable. I don’t want us to withdraw from the world. I think that is dangerous to all including my grandchildren who must grow up in a world that will be greatly impacted by this election. I do not want his administration picking the next Supreme Court justices.

Anyway I could go on about the pluses and minuses of Hillary along with the comparisons with Trump but I don’t have the time now to do that. Hopefully, that addresses your question.

Ok. As you know i see her and Bill completely differently. Totally differently.

But i’m sick of ‘arguing’ with people 🙂 I dunno about you, but
I’m sick of ‘that’.

I’ll vote for Jill, You vote for Hillary, and lets us
continue on our human-paths, into the wonder and mystery of life 🙂

To me its simple. You always vote for the lesser of two evils-always-because if you don’t your voting FOR the greater evil-even if you don’t vote at all. Sometimes stuff is just so simple.

So you are conceding Hillary is indeed a “lesser Evil”
and not a good candidate for the Presidency?

I have heard-tell that ravens are carrying messages, indicating
that Pa Ram is going to make a run for King of the North.

Just rumors at this point, but still.
