Re: Who's Everyone Seeing Live?

It seems to me that the real question here is whether we can find and apply a useful principle that can guide us through this and other messes.

Pitchers and catchers have already reported and not a peep from any of us. Sign of the times I guess. Looking fwd to yet another season of profound mediocrity from the Phillies. Play ball!!

How can the government help people “learn to be healthy” without raising the ire of people like you who distrust it inherently?
It can't. Nor should it. Personal healthcare and lifestyle choices should be none of the governments business.

If that was a joke, it wasn't a very funny one, but if the Eaglesmith thing is just a way to defuse and pivot away from a largely irrelevant (to BTB's point) conversation, I'm on board.

Consistently losing every election? You get used to it. Plus you get to agree with and piss off all the partisan hacks. Often in the same conversation. Here is my real point.
