Trump vs. Obama? Hmm.
Well, crap, Fox cut away. What happened with Blanche sitting on the dollar bill?
This is the new definition of going scorched-earth.
The Donald is getting it all off his chest. No holds barred.
I don’t think the media and dims expected this level of bombing. It’s Iran-like.
Trump has nothing to lose by ripping the media. They’ll hate him as much tomorrow anyway.
Why Aug 3? Something about appointed successor or something?

I can’t wait for that MLK biopic with Adrian Brody in the lead.

I was 7 in 1957, LSU beat A&M behind Taylor and Cannon but all I cared about was when Dad was going to buy us more coke and peanuts. Plus, I hated wearing a coat and tie.

Things that concern me most is not only how we play but how we come out of it injury wise. A&M is next up.
Clemson, LaTech, Ole Miss and TAMU is a horrendous start.

re: Tom Clancy novels

Not a bad one in the bunch.
Red Storm Rising was my intro to Clancy and his first, I believe. Great novel.
Hunt for Red October was first Jack Ryan novel. Great but a bit too technical.
I really got into Sum of All Fears and then Debt of Honor and its companion Executive Orders.
Cardinal K had least action but best writing.
Most of his novels were about 800 pages. You really had to slog through the first 500 pages as he built worlds and storylines. But then you were rewarded with 300 pages of phenomenal storytelling as it all came together brilliantly.
His later works, mostly ghost written, fell off a bit. But still worthy. Book readers lost a treasure when he passed away too early.

re: Should I buy 85" TCL Qm7k vs Samsung 75" Q90F?
Posted by MDB on 6/22/26 at 10:33 pm to LSUSUPERSTAR
I bought a 98” TCL QM8K right before Christmas and kept it a week or so. The picture was nice but it just wasn’t right. Sports still had judder and lacked clarity. Regular TV and movies were ok.
I brought it back and got an 85” Sony Bravia 9. Yes, smaller but the picture is flat out gorgeous and sports are equivalent to OLED.
You can get them on sale right now. Act fast because they’ll be pulling them for the new expensive Bravia 9 II coming out this summer.
SONY is still better — it’s their processor. Will be interesting to see how quality holds now that they’ve merged with TCL.

I’m 76 and get a kick out of posters talking about long ago, like the ‘90s. lol. So 40 is my guess.
I post mostly on poli board and tech board but lurk everywhere. Have often got good tips on the home forum.
This is a great toilet site.

CIA and KGB did a lot of simulations and torture in this way and found a lot of psychosis as a result. Really fuks with your mind.
Now imagine what this would be like if the condition existed from birth.

Funny quip from my daughter who graduated from Baton Rouge Magnet in 2008.
Me: “ where did you finish in the class?”
Daughter: “uhh,18th.”
Me: “18th!!”
Daughter: “Well, second, not counting Indians and Asians.”

re: Who would get your vote for most anticipated football recruit in recent era?

I agree with all the current selections but let me tell you there was just as much buzz over RB Garry James and WR Todd Kinchen in the 70s and 80s.
Another was LB Roovelroe Swann who had a career-ending injury in his first pre-season camp.
Going way back, Billy Cannon, Pat Screen, Tommy Casanova and Bert Jones made quite a stir.
