Back in 2000 60 Minutes commentator Andy Rooney said that if you couldn't decide between George Bush and John Kerry in five minutes you were too stupid to have a vote.

Of course, it's not like they are scrambling to actually try and stop the shootings...

The only reason Russia became a threat is that they had Trump there carrying their water.

Also, if Trump had the brains of a Fredo Corleone he would have realized that none of the kompromat Putin had on him would matter once he was in office. The CIA would swear up and down that it was 'fake news.'

My best guess is that you have to learn how to be a criminal in order to catch criminals.

A cop who investigates burglaries has to know what a lockpick looks like, and the bunco squad has to know about confidence games.

The directive was probably something like "figure out the genetic markers we'd have to look for to identify aberrant humans." imho

I'm lucky because I have an Italian food shop near me that makes homemade uncooked pizza. I can take it home and cook right away or freeze. Same with the chicken pot pies.

The main thing I'd say is get in the habit of making giant servings and freeze them. I will make 5 liters of stew/chili/soup on a Sunday and freeze it in pint containers. A different recipe the next Sunday. Now I've got 20 meals sitting in the freezer.

It takes as much effort to make a big meal as a small one; make a meal big enough for four people and freeze three portions.

What are you defrosting?

You don't have to defrost anything except raw meat and even that can go straight into the oven if you want to season it after it's cooked. If you have a frozen pizza/pot pie just throw it in a pre-heated oven.

Also, you can defrost quickly with a microwave.

If you don't have a freezer that can hold two weeks worth of meals, buy one. I have three homemade frozen pizzas and a half dozen chicken pot pies waiting right now.

I can cook a whole roast chicken on Sunday and enjoy chicken tacos, chicken sandwiches, etc. all week.

I can cook a five liter pot of chili/soup/stew and freeze it into pint containers; I've got a nice hot meal any time.

Slow cookers are another option.

I feel this way; we get 'growing pains' so we can grow.

Scrapped knees from learning to ride a bike let me learn to deal with greater pains later on.

Right now, this is the biggest problem these kids have faced

Just remember this : when Mitt Romney called Russia our greatest threat in 2012 the GOP rushed to his defense. A decade later they were openly admiring Putin.

TIL why so many Trump voters are obese.

You know it and I know it, now try to explain it to them.
