 I don't think anyone had the Bears hanging 40 tonight on their bingo card.

 @01ea33cb But it is certainly satisfying that they won a game and the offense looked good. Hopefully, the oline continues to play well. It wouldn't hurt if Carolina would lose out since we have their 1st rd draft choice. 🙂 
 @4b611ef4 So sorry. I didn't want the dog we have either and they just manage to worm their way into your heart. 
 Seems to me it does. 
 @6211bb94 I am waiting patiently for the judge to lower the boom on him for continuing to make public comments . He seems to be able to walk a very fine line yelling poor me, I'm being persecuted and disparaging the state, the judge, the district attorney et alia at the top of his lung and not get called on it. I guess they fear that any response on their part only works to his advantage. 
 The republicunts are now accusing Taylor Swift of being trans. While I admit that Ms. Swift is in... 
 @9485605b They are working on their image by doing what they do. They truly believe that if they try to make the rest of the world look bad, they look better. Fortunately, the clown show that they are currently giving the world can never make any of them look good except to the far right. Remember this a year from now and vote the scoundrels out! 
 @ee21d814 Good Morning! It's been a while since we've seen you hanging out here. Good to see you back! 
 @0a5f14f0 I've never understood the willingness to give up all privacy in the browser. Most browsers take some info but Chrome is the worst. Google/Chrome/Gmail and I divorced when I scheduled a trip, received a confirm in Gmail and Google placed the event in my calendar without any intervention. So, if they are reading that.....In any event, I get the benefit of Chromium with Brave and get to keep most of my private things private. 
 @b8c256d6 That's the crap that makes me crazy on dry pavement. To do that kind of thing on wet pavement is a danger to everyone around him/her. Get more than one in near proximity and you have a recipe for disaster. 
 I keep seeing anti-gun regulation people with signs and t-shirts that read "Ban idiots, not guns"... 
 @3fe52772 Not necessarily an either/or proposition. Ban both guns and idiots. We could start with assault weapons and people that wear that tshirt. 
 @deceb30c Yep. Welcome to my pain. All of us Chicago Fans have grown to expect a championship every 40 years or so. Which team is immaterial. The Michael Jordan Bulls being the lone exception. 😪 
 There is this strange idea, that if we understand the facts or science behind how something works... 
 @3fe52772 People miss so much if they can't look around them with "childlike" (not childish) eyes to see the wonder in the world. I saw a hummingbird today and was totally enchanted. Your post reminded me, that even though we understand the science of the hummingbird, the experience of it is astonishing. Besides, we are finding out that maybe we don't understand the facts after all. The James Webb telescope seems to be potentially turning astrophysics on its head.

Until you have good governm... 
 @1c48236d @9485605b No question. However, good government seems to be beyond our reach as GOP and Dem politicians will do anything to torpedo any initiative of the other regardless of the fact that it could make life better for their own constituents. Compromise has been replaced by "make the other guy look bad". In this environment, tax reform is a dream. We can't even get assault weapons off the street.

 @5a01e6ce It's got that "Well, I'm waiting" look. 🙂
