I'm finally at an awesome company who treats people the right way and does business the right way, but it took a long time to find this place.

    The political stuff is background noise. When Regan got elected he was going to get us all killed by starting a nuclear war with Russia, both Bushes similar, Slick Willy was going to make us a socialist state and Obama was going to make us a Muslim socialist state. It's all BS. The country won't Chang dramatically because there's a new politician living at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. So, yeah, put on your big girl pants and get over it.
    A-****ing-men. We were screwed regardless with these candidates, but in the end, nothing will actually change. Rinse, wash and repeat in 4 years.

      The stupidity is amazing.
      As mr les said after last night's results, at least we can get high legally when things get bad.

      Until your funding gets cut.

      Morning Lodge. Scared for my kid who is of an age to be drafted when the world explodes and who is majoring in a topic that the soon to be prez doesn't believe is legit.

        The military's brass doesn't want a draft and will argue against any politician insistent on re-instituting one. Don't fret over it too much.

          Agreed. I can't see anyone going down that route, regardless of who is president. Especially considering, if we were to get into a major war, it would be over and the planet will be destroyed before anyone could even even contemplate a draft.

            Besides that, Trump has too many international suppliers. He needs to keep those Chinese factories producing if his "Make America Great Again" hats are going to stay on the market.

                This thought crossed my mind too as my son is a senior in high school, but I agree that it's unlikely to ever happen.

                  I remember being told every 2 years from 2000-2008 that in no uncertain terms that the draft was coming back.

                  Stuff it.

                  Edit: if I have to withhold my hysterics then so should you.

                    Down goes Frazier! Down goes Frazier!

                    The Lodge is starting to turn a bit ugly, folks. Everybody take a big, deep breath. Now exhale, and start onto some new topics.

                      Well, the nausea I feel from the stress has decreased my appetite. Good for wt loss. I am eternally grateful I am not working in practice right now. The number of people coming in for anxiety and depression is ridiculous right now.
