    I apologize, I didn't come here to make enemies, just to learn how to grill better and use this new contraption.  And you're right, I have no business telling people what they can and can't do on here.  I'll stick to the cooking topics, hopefully you can give me good cooking advice someday soon.

    No need to apologize, we're all adults here.  Happy to help with cooks and with the consumption of adult beverages, whichever comes first.

    The way this country is slowly circling the toilet bowl, if we can't find the humor in something we would be like the Bergens in the movie Trolls. I must have seen that movie with my grand daughter at least 20 times so far, and now that Moana is out I'll be seeing that one repeatedly as well.

    Although I have to be careful in what I publicly state is humorous to me. As @lousubcap can probably attest, bubbleheads find humor in things that most people would find deplorable.

    @HeavyG, lol not trolling tonight I promise. Just posting on what I see in front of me.  Have never seen you post any original content though. Do you cook or just post about various things. If so post some pics. I want to see all of your insight in the form of food.  
    I did do an 8 lb. butt yesterday in my KBQ and thought about posting pics of that here but then I was afraid some noob would report me for being off topic and not using an Egg. So I didn't.

    I do appreciate those that do post their cooks or post pretty much anything else for that matter. Too many forums lack active participants; certainly not the case here.

    I have never actually posted any pictures of anything I've cooked and likely never will. Too lazy.

    I know that makes me a bad person but that's just another cross I 'll have to bear. :)

    As evidence, I submit the current generation of college students needing reprieves from exams, safe spaces, and coloring books all because the Chosen One didn't win the election. Guess what, life isn't always fair.

    History is rife with statements from cranky old people bemoaning the idleness and corruption of the youth of their day.

    I especially loved the comment that appeared in a mid-19th Century issue of Scientific American regarding the game of chess.

    Give the press a s $hit Sammy and tell them to enjoy. The media whores have been a threat to military operations in the past. And if you disagree I pray the rock you're hibernating under doesn't kill you.

    Surprised President Trump had time to act on this, what with the transgender restroom issue looming.

    One thing that made me realize that CNN is not as neutral as I once thought:

    after the second Trump Clinton debate (hot mic was at its height) CNN did had a group of I think 12-16 "regular folks," that they posed questions to about the debate.

    The first question went to one person and it was something to the tune of, How bad was that statement by Trump about grabbing cats or something like that. The person gave a good well thought out maybe preplanned answer saying how bad it was...the very next question was a poll to the entire group. They were to raise their hands if they thought Trumps debate performance had helped him on that issue. I can't remember for sure, but I think only one hand went up. 

    So they put that hot mic topic and how bad it was in the forefront of all their minds before polling the topic.

    It was strategic, and I thought showed how they played it to get the answer they wanted. If it was really neutral they would've polled that question first.

    that being said CNN and other main media outlets shouldn't have restricted access. Really agreed with the @Sardonicus video of Mccain

    I read about the first 10 comments then skipped to the end. I'll make my only comment then bow out. Donnie can refuse to talk to any media that he wants. He has plenty to do ferreting out and firing Obama's stay behind moles in the intelligence agencies and the upper ranks of the military.

    He's speaking about politicians and I thought everyone agrees he is not one.....at all.

    Of course he's a politician. Just not a very good one.

    Saying Trump isn't a politician is sorta like saying McCain really is a maverick.
