What a weak man, all we can do is pray.

Brilliant legal argument
 
It is probably for the best.

So I have too much money in my watch fund, and this is one of the watches I have seen. Now all fine watches tend to be silly, overpriced and not as accurate as a quartz watch you can get out of a box of cereal. I mean like a hundred times less accurate than a watch a thousand times less expensive. Worse yet, they make terrible displays of wealth.

But I really love them.

Anyway, this watch has me confused. It is $4,500 and is made to copy a $20 watch from 40 years ago. No one would even notice it. And yet I am weirdly drawn to it.

Any thoughts?

Nice watch. I know a few guys who are into watches. My personal philosophy leans hard into avoiding attachments and following the maxim "Travel light, move fast, strike hard".

You want to get into legal arguments, fake lawyer faggot?
What does Article IV, Section 4 of The Constitution say, and what are the laws in each state pertaining to violation of Oath of Office, you fucking Miami
sidewalk mudpuddle in July deep shitbird?
Gavin Newsom can be removed from office and go to jail at any time.
The problem is our laws don't get enforced for politicians anymore.
 
Like Charlie Kirk? Thoughts and prayers. Move along.

FWIW, as the shooting in Australia proved, Draconian anti-gun laws don't fix the problem. Same for Rhode Island, which has some of the strongest anti-gun laws in the nation. IMHO, the problem isn't guns, but a severe lack of mental healthcare.

Is there any doubt that people who commit mass murder are not only murderers, but throwing their lives away? How is that rational?

You're fond of statistics and research. Just for the hell of it, look up mass shootings in Australia versus in the United States in 2024, to make it simpler.

No law is ever going to completely stop these unnecessary massacres. But that doesn't mean that we should just give in to carnage and murder.

I don't like the digital readout as much as the old fashioned hand and dial.

A friend bought me a refurbished vintage Soviet watch that looks similar to this:

Watches are interesting but not an important thing to me. That being said, I have my dad's retirement watch. It's a gold Omega he was given after 38 years with the same company. I don't know what its monetary value is but I cherish it because it was his. It's a beautiful timepiece.

Angry much?

How would the protection clause cause Newsom to be arrested?

He is the Governor of a Republic.

Australia has a smaller popular than Texas. 28,213,400 Aussies compared to 29,145,505 Texans. Similarly, the US also has a very severe LGBTQ+ problem compared to Australia, both in numbers and ratios: 9.3% to 3.6%, 31.7M (more than then entire Australia population) to 739K.

Agreed on not giving in. My point is that repeating the same strategy (gun banning) for over thirty years only to face repeated reversals in court is insane. Try another way. My suggestion is better mental healthcare and monitoring. Start in schools "to reduce child suicides". Most to colleges then businesses. As this evolves, push congress to enact red flag laws for those identified as being a danger to themselves (the vast majority of cases) or to others.

The polling of 14,000 adults showed that 9.3 percent identified as LGBTQ+, including 5.2 percent identifying as bisexual, 2 percent as gay, 1.4 percent as lesbian and 1.3 percent as transgender. Applied to a national population of 341 million people, that would be 31.7 million LGBTQ+ adults, including 17.7 million bisexual people, 6.8 million gay people, 4.8 million lesbians and 4.4 million transgender people.

An estimated 738,800 Australians aged 16 years and over, or 3.6% of the population, report their sexual orientation as gay, lesbian, bisexual or a different term such as asexual, pansexual or queer (LGB+). Of all Australians aged 16 years and over: 1.5% (or 315,800 people) are gay or lesbian.

For some reason my wife thinks watches are sexy. I guess they supposedly represent a man who has a schedule, keeps commitments, and has to manage his time.

Contrast that to your average MAGA moron who never seem to have had a career, never had important meetings to attend, possibly suffers mental illness, and can't even find the time to attend church despite posturing as a Christian nationalist.

I have been thinking about how I could get everything important to me onto a plane. I could do it with standard checked luggage, but not with standard. carry-on luggage. The fall of Saigon situation would have me unable to carry everything, though I would be able to get four watches out, two on each wrist.

A smartphone has taken the place of a watch in many cases these days. It can remind one of schedules, can contain an entire itinerary, and can be programmed with timers along with a lot of other capabilities.

In the military, we avoided jewelry, especially flashy, accessories. Even wedding rings, which were often worn on dog tag chains. This philosophy is exemplified in the Dr. Stranglove movie with Col. "Bat" Guano saying "You don't think I'd go into combat with loose change in my pocket, do you?"

The main punchline in the scene below is "You'll have to answer to the Coca-Cola company". LOL

Carry something valuable for exchange, trade or bribery? Watches would do it. So would a belt full of gold coins. :)

It's true that watches today are completely superfluous.
 
Cursive should be in schools we had to teach a friends son how to write his name in cursive so he could cash his pay check.
What is going on in our schools?
Oh and have you seen how some people are doing math now?
It is a real mess.
I've heard of the problem of teaching kids how to sign their name.

Everything in school seems to focus on computer keyboards.

I think you can print your name on a check or legal document, and it would still be legally valid. I don't think there is a legal requirement to be cursive.

Digital signatures on documents are rarely ever in cursive style.
