They should have hired a better photographer - subject off-centre, poor lighting, cluttered background and Trump's eye is half closed unless it's supposed to be a leering wink. If I was Trump I'd sue for incompetence.
-
He'll be happy about that mainly because his `release the hostages, OR ELSE' bluster won't be tested. He wouldn't have had a clue what to do about the `or else' part.

No worries Marty. You being wrong and me being right are equally rare events.
-
I'm not so sure Marty. I agree that two negatives multiplied together are a positive, but in (-2²) the exponent is worked out first so (-2²) becomes (-(2²)) = -4 as opposed to (-2)² = (-2)x(-2) = 4 In the above example: -(-2+2-2) - (-2²) becomes -(-2) - (-4) 2 +4 = 6
-
-2² means -(2²) = -4 its being confused with (-2)² = 4

First one 39, second one 6

So, revenue raised by tariffs imposed on exporters but actually paid internally by US importers is now redefined as `external revenue`? Sounds like a good plan by Trump to convince his supporters of his financial genius while they wonder why they're paying more for what they buy.

Turned 93 in August last year. Looks more like 103 in that first photo. so I think OT is probably right that it's been modified. Still, hard to believe she's 93. Doesn't seem that long ago that I was watching that show. ☹️

I remember using 10 figure logs for surveying calculations. That was about 1970. Put me off becoming a surveyor.

All egotistical bluff and bluster at this stage. Lets see what actually happens when he gets in and whether his competency matches his ambitions. "When I take over, all hell will break loose" may be right, but it won't have anything to do with the hostages, just his chaotic mismanagement.

He’s a nutcase. He might even scare Trump because he’s so much richer and in some ways more influential. Trump doesn’t like competition from someone he can’t easily intimidate. Will be interesting to see what happens when they don’t want to be on the same team anymore.

I got caught like that once. Had a credit balance on my credit card, withdrew some of it on-line to pay into another account and immediately got hit with a $20 or $25 fee. That was NAB or Westpac. Can't remember which. Never did that again. I'll bet they all do it.

You’re right. There goes another elegant theory destroyed by an inconvenient fact.

How many stings did it cost you. -
Roulettes over Perth some years ago. Quite a few years ago now, come to think of it. Must be getting older.

Yes, not a lot of optimism in that image.... Hope it turns out better.

Bringing in the New Year:

Probably not as unpleasant as following him.

Not sure about all, but most would be current or former pilots.

I’ve better too. Glaucoma knocked off a lot of vision in one eye (the other one is fine) and I lost my wife in August so life has been a bit hard. Nevertheless it’s Christmas and we’ll have a good day.

They would have assumed you drove a road train. If they were matching thongs they would have given you credit for being well dressed. -
He’s probably up the creek with a paddle.

More like ten to fifteen years for me. By that time development may have matured, range increased to make long distance driving easy and stress-free, charging stations available everywhere with five minutes from dead flat to full charge, and prices come down to reasonable levels. Re-sale value of current EV’s must generally be near re-cycling levels.

Then I check the clock and it's only 1:00am.

I’m waiting for a good, cheap, small, cold nuclear fusion reactor.
