If people would actually look into the stories the media tells about Trump and his allies, they would realize just how much the media lies to us.

They’ve been defined as other terms like terrorists. But they are all equally as bad. Anyone with hate towards or a desire to cause harm to someone because they are different need…. Whataboutism will also bring down humanity.

Richest man in the world. Built Paypal. Built video games. Builds electric cars, rockets, tunnels, robots, and is researching how to implement literal bionic and robotic parts connected to a human brain so people without limbs can have limbs. Built a submarine to try and rescue those people in that cave…. This dude is a closet Nazi, just waiting…[Read more]

What I said was if he continues to have moments where he “accidentally” uses a Nazi symbol the at that point I would change my perception of him and he would be a duck. Read the whole comment not what you just want to read to start a fight. But I guess you’re allowed to perceive things as you want.

Given the 20th Century’s history, it’s shocking to a lot of Americans that, before WWII, this is how people would pledge allegiance.

I disagree. I get what you are saying, but in this case it wasn’t walk like duck is a duck. That’s ridiculous. And perception is not reality. There is no “my” truth or relative reality.

Bellamy salute

Since you ask I’ll give my opinion. Perception is reality. Whether he meant it as a Nazi salute or not the only thing that matters is what people believe. I watched the speech and when he did that I was like uh oh because of how aggressive it was. I personally don’t think he’s that way but when it comes to anything close to Nazism people shoul…[Read more]

Well, I guess what I would say is that once the IRS closes the loophole of having athletic donations count as tax write-offs, then the money will dry up. I for one am, well, I guess I shouldn’t really be shocked, that all of these collectives are, at the moment, considered to be 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organizations. It’s one thing to give money to…[Read more]

What aren’t billionaires buying? From my perch it looks like we are entering the era of the robber barons circa 1880’s.

As a Miami guy, I’m obviously not a Bills’ fan but I really wish Cole and Dalton nothing but the best come Sunday.

At the end of the day who cares? Give me guys who want to be a Ute! If Snowden wants to go to BYU for extra money then so be it! Snowden won’t fix their O line or D line which is by far their biggest area of need going into next year.

With or without Snowden, Utah will have a top 25 defense …

The issues for Utah falls completely on their hea…[Read more]

The interesting part of the story is that I had to make the decision on a Monday. On the Saturday night before, the wife and I did an analysis of Stay vs Go. We wrote in the margin everything we could think of, house, neighborhood, job, church, friends, town, money, etc. etc. We ranked them all 1-10, and at the end of the list when we totaled…[Read more]

I have had two similar experiences. Both times I left a company strictly for an increase in pay. Both times I didn’t care if the working conditions and responsibilities would make me happier. Both times I was miserable and regretted the decision.

On another occasion, I left a company that included a nice salary increase, but that wasn’t the…[Read more]

Ever so true. The lessons we learn at the school of hard knocks but we all know you can talk to a kid until you are blue in the face and they will do just the opposite.

I did that once in my career, wasn’t quite double but it was nearly a 70% increase, and within one year I was on the cusp of cracking 6 figures. I wasn’t even 30 years old yet, so it was pretty exciting. But after 18 months, I left to return to my prior company for a different, not nearly as good of a position for a 20% pay cut because I was…[Read more]

Good points. Isn’t there an independent source that sets player values based on position and past performance? If I have 5 employees doing the same job and one makes double the other 4 that creates issues.
