Also, the gals who I've bedded down said it was the best 5 and 3/4 inches they've ever experienced

 

Okay, but I still don't know why I'd need a salve, my anus is just fine, well mostly fine.

 

See Riley....

'We live in an increasingly volatile and primal era, in which history is speeding up and liberal democracy is weakening. As Vladimir Lenin wrote, “In some decades, nothing happens; in some weeks, decades happen.” Get ready for the creative destruction of public institutions, something every society periodically requires to clear out what is obsolete, ossified and dysfunctional — and to tilt the playing field of wealth and power away from the old and back to the young. Forests need periodic fires; rivers need periodic floods. Societies, too. That’s the price we must pay for a new golden age.

If we look at the broader rhythms of history, we have reason to be heartened, not discouraged, by these trends. Anglo-American history over the past several centuries has experienced civic crises in a fairly regular cycle, about every 80 or 90 years, or roughly the length of a long human life. This pattern reveals itself in the intervals separating the colonial Glorious Revolution, the American Revolution, the Civil War, and the Great Depression and World War II. Fast-forward the length of a long human life from the 1930s, and we end up where we are today.

America entered a new Fourth Turning in 2008. It is likely to last until around 2030. Our paradigm suggests that current trends will deepen as we move toward the halfway point.

Further adverse events, possibly another financial crisis or a major armed conflict, will galvanize public opinion and mobilize leaders to take more decisive action. Rising regionalism and nationalism around the world could lead to the fragmentation of major political entities (perhaps the European Union) and the outbreak of hostilities (perhaps in the South China Sea, the Korean Peninsula, the Baltic states or the Persian Gulf).

Despite a new tilt toward isolationism, the United States could find itself at war. I certainly do not hope for war. I simply make a sobering observation: Every total war in U.S. history has occurred during a Fourth Turning, and no Fourth Turning has yet unfolded without one. America’s objectives in such a war are likely to be defined very broadly.

At the end of the 2020s, the Fourth Turning crisis era will climax and draw to a close. Settlements will be negotiated, treaties will be signed, new borders will be drawn, and perhaps (as in the late 1940s) a new durable world order will be created. Perhaps as well, by the early 2030s, we will enter a new First Turning: Young families will rejoice, fertility will rebound, economic equality will rise, a new middle class will emerge, public investment will grow into a new 21st-century infrastructure, and ordered prosperity will recommence.'
---- Neil Howe

 

Thx for posting that. I might pick up his book.

 

Musical interlude ..

 

I have a serious question for the Trump supporters here. What would the Mueller report have to show to make you suspicious the Trump campaign was in cahoots with Russia or change your mind on Trump? If it showed clear collusion but nothing to directly charge Trump with a crime, would that matter to you? Say if Don Jr. or Kushner were charged. Just curious what where you guys set the bar.

Colluded how? I need to see real evidence. Nothing I have seen yet shows collusion with the Russians by anybody.

 

I wouldnt trust anything a Rat has to say to save his own ass. Also, what does this have to do with Russia?

 

What does half the stuff on this thread have to do with Russia?

 

You just asked a question about Trumpsters accepting Russia Collusion like a good little Liberal lap dog. And then post this article about a Rat lawyer trying to buy a get out of jail card that had nothing to do with Russia.

 

Independent statements. Try to keep up bally!

 

It was an investigation by WSJ that Cohen confirmed via twitter, so not exactly how you characterized it.

 

Games, silly games you play.
