While we’re depressed, my wife’s aunt...who my stepdaughter considers her grandmother...just diagnosed with advanced pancreatic cancer. Just in time for Christmas. Would be our second loss as a couple...after my own aunt last week. Prayers...good thoughts. Whatever you got.

Started to repeat some kind and truthful words mentioned to me but you were the one that said them so..back at you brother.
And some wishes of peace for everyone, it's needed.

Tell you what. Overdo it on Thanksgiving like the rest of us miserable schlubs, complain on the board and we’ll call the year a win.

There was a lot of heaviness on VN today. Just thought a little levity was in order.


Fare thee well Mr. Hedgehog. We barely knew thee.

Lol. My wife spent like $20 on a new dog toy because it said it was indestructible... It lasted about 3 hours.

Good news... It was a stuffed Gator.

Anybody in favor of decriminalizing drugs in this country needs to do some research on what is happening in Seattle. They have effectively decriminalized drugs in that city and crime, filth, and homelessness have become a cancer that is rotting that city. Such a shame. They spend over $1 billion dollars per year on the homeless in that city and the problem is only getting worse. They could hand each homeless person $1 million dollars a year as a solution and it would save them a bunch of money.

They rarely prosecute for any drug offenses, including meth, heroin, cocaine, etc. I honestly couldn't care less about weed. If alcohol and tobacco are legal then why not marijuana. At least it has some medicinal benefits. However, the really hard drugs do nothing but kill folks and ruin lives.

You've been there recently haven't you? Did you witness any of the large homeless population? Just curious if it is really as bad as some of the stories I've seen.

Bro there was a huge homeless problem in the 90s, same as Portland, San Fran, LA, basically the whole west coast has been that way forever and always will be. Failure to lock up drug users doesn't really affect it. All that does is glut up the prisons more.

I'm not saying to lock up the users. They need mental and physical help. There has to be a combination of prosecuting dealers and reducing the number of people addicted. I know you think that the government should stay out of it but left to their devices, people will descend to chaos. Criminals have to be prosecuted or else what is the point of rules and laws.
