WHAT???

[Guest]

Has GAA moved on from laps of the pitch?

No idea tbh, my opinions on gaa would be close to SP's on football, except mine are based in reality

There are other motivations for running lads.

No one said there wasn't!

[Lazare]

No one said there wasn't!

I would hazard a guess that strength building as in muscle mass falls way way down the list of motivations for the vast majority. If it features at all.

[dobby]

It's a grim day when Dobby is correcting me and is right. I blame my manflu.

Ah now. Gfy. Even a blind squirrel will find a nut

[Strewelpeter]

I dunno how you're still taking everything he does literally.

I'm not taking everything he says literally because just as it would be stupid to take everything any schoolyard bully who finds themselves caught out and cornered literally it would be even sillier to take this orange buffon at his word.
However the fact is that he is POTUS and that is a role where words especially when made as statements of facts do have consequences.

You see, just because someone is a big child and lives in their own little play reality where they can pretend that whatever we want to believe is true and employ enough sycophants to reinforce their delusions, it does not take away from the fact that there is an ineluctable external reality.

He did a decent thesis for his degree on the racing industry. Ever read it ? BTW tell him hello and sorry about his son etc

Never got a chance no. Will do!

[Denny Crane]

But Reuters interviews with nearly a dozen executives and lobbyists who have taken part in these meetings or have been briefed on them reveal a Trump who is very different from his uncompromising and demanding @realDonaldTrump Twitter handle.

When he meets the nation's top chief executives in person, he is a mix of charm and cajoling. This Trump is flexible and inquisitive, a schmoozer who remembers birthdays and often lavishes praise on their companies, said the people, who spoke on condition of anonymity so they could freely discuss private meetings.

This private side of Trump sheds light on why many CEOs have expressed confidence that the Republican president is good for business, despite his share-denting public attacks.

"He said one thing for the cameras and the door shuts and then it's like kumbaya," said one person who was briefed on a meeting between Trump and a group of CEOs.

Shocking!

What area of Sydney Mellor?

Maybe just a reaction to the greyness of the Irish winter but currently feeling a very strong nostalgic pull towards Australia. So much so that I just wasted 10 minutes checking out open roles in Oz on my companies mobility site.

Zetland, sort of between Surry Hills and Randwick.

So what about the author who wrote his book and spent a lot of time with him who said he is exactly as he seems. Fake news?

[AndyFatBastard]

New wiki leaks CIA leaks are the kind of stuff people would still regards as tinfoil hat stuff,the internet of shit strikes again
The documents cover a range of topics, including what appeared to be a discussion about how to compromise smart televisions and turn them into improvised surveillance devices.

WikiLeaks said the leaked data also included details on the agency’s efforts to subvert American software products and smartphones, including Apple’s iPhone, Google’s Android and Microsoft’s Windows.

https://www.theguardian.com/media/2017/mar/07/wikileaks-publishes-biggest-ever-leak-of-secret-cia-documents-hacking-surveillance?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other

Must be the Russians fault again

General concensus today is that none of Wikileak's claims are backed up by their own evidence. Showing that CIA agents discussed how they would go about hacking Smart TVs does not mean that they can actually do it.

You could not go to his particular church but go to one with a priest who has not done so.

Same as if you found out that your local publican was refusing to serve black people you could go to a different bar rather than stop drinking all together.

@shambles:

going to the electric brixton tomorrow night to see tinariwen. Any suggestions for a good pub round there to have a few pints beforehand?

[Hectorjelly]

Well that is how it comes across.

So what are you trying to say. That Catholic people that chose to still go to church are supporting people who committed crimes in the name of religion by going to church. That is ridiculous.

I see where you are coming from, however the crimes that are being discussed here aren't the work of a few bad apples, they are the systematic end product of a fundamentally irrational and evil organisation. Your football hooliganism analogy would apply only if the violence was being committed by the players, covered up by the club and the club also brainwashed their fans into further acts of madness every Sunday.

Don't spend much time in Brixton tbh but the Craft Beer Co looks a decent spot, the Market House is just around the corner from the venue and is grand

Upstairs at the Ritzy might be worth a look!

If you come in via Herne Hill station (probably not), The Florence is a nice pub and the one straight across from station is alright!

If you're looking for a couple after the gig checkout Hootenanny which is only about 5 minutes walk from it

Did Nealons not turn into a gay bar?

Last time I was in there, it was all just middle aged gay blokes, could have just been that night

Just ordered a jalapeno popper and cheese fries, hoping I don't see someone taking a shit.

They often lease the upstairs to various niche groups, who obviously head across the road once Nealon's closes. My favourites are the bears, but all credit must be given to the leather fetish lads. They really know how to party. Rigger can attest.

Had a customer meeting this morning in which I pretty much fell asleep

Just managed to catch myself as I jolted

Think I got away with it

Hard to escape the thought that the inside voice of Trump people - Spicer in particular - is not 'i've no fcking idea what he means, and I deeply regret having to defend him'. This is just consistently absolutely crazy stuff. There's clearly something mentally wrong with him. Much more so that even the most silly things I've read about Reagan.

.We’re going to do something that’s great, and I am proud to support the replacement plan released by the House of Representatives,” Mr. Trump said. “This will be a plan where you can choose your doctor, and this will be a plan where you can choose your plan. And you know what the plan is. This is the plan. It’s a complicated process, but actually it’s very simple, it’s called good health care

Just even the idea that their big plan is to remove proper healthcare from about 10 million mainly black mainly poor people. How do you get to being a country where a political party can propose that as their main grand plan?!

Stop looking at America through European eyes. It doesn't make sense.

A lot of the people who voted for Trump are covered by Obamacare. Go figure.

They have a deeply individualistic society. They can't handle it when something is clearly better socialised. Massive cognitive dissonance results.

i.e. "we are better, America sucks!"

Yet millions of people continue to emigrate there. The cognitive dissonance is not localised.

I wonder if the trend to call it Republicare will catch on and will it cause a similar reaction to the party?

It's Not EU vs NA, it's people that are looked down on, often the less educated or less intelligent, which happens everywhere.

The same thing happened with brexit, the areas of the UK where it was overwhelmingly voted for were often the people that needed and got the most money from the EU.


It's also no wonder that people emigrate there, it's good for educated people to be there, they are paid way more compared to here in a lot of fields. People want money, the worse conditions of employment etc don't really factor in as much to a lot of people.
A lot of the bad things about America don't affect people with education and money.

The majority of people emigrating to the US are unskilled workers (maybe not 100% legally).

The vast majority of those come from places where inadequate health care is the least of their worries, not from rich European countries.

Jaysus. The door on my gas meter box in the front garden was broken the last few weeks. Never told anyone about it or did anything about it. Got back today and there was a whole new box on the meter and a new key sitting on the mat.
That kind of efficiency doesn't belong in Ireland.
