I've heard a lot of comments that conservatives are making now they are on the cusp of overturning Roe V Wade. That they would be willing do something/anything to help these women. Many or most of whom are young, with no education, no additinal parental support, little family support, etc. How...

A league I am in cuts off waiver wire pickups after week nine. (Weird and dum I know) But due to this I am looking to handcuff Ekelor but it doesn't seem clear who would benefit if Ekelor goes down. Rountree has the most rushes and yards behind him but is listed as fourth on the depth chart by...

Just looking over the new W-4 form. Reads like Ikea instructions. Still trying to grok it.  Is this what small gubmt is? Holy cow I hire literally hundreds of people under 25 and many/most all work multiple jobs. What a nightmare.  

I have made a committment to the 2020 election cycle. I have been marginally politically active in the past. At one point I was the treasuruer for a failed State Rep run in KS. (DESTROYED) I have made cash contributions in the past and been shouty on the innerwebs. But I feel called to be truly...

Need some trip advice.  My son has a buddy stationed in Charleston and wants to visit. We are heading that way March 9-March 18th or so. Son is grown and will be doing his own thing. So me and the wife have a pretty open schedule and are looking to entertain ourselves.  Among things we would...

https://amp.jsonline.com/amp/2198624002?__twitter_impression=true Look at the list of items at the end the Wisconsin Legislature and Governor is trying to put in place in lame duck session. Effectively clipping the wings of the incoming Dem Governor and legislature. Unconscionable. Spitting in...

Got a good friend who is a Sedgwick County Sheriff in Wichita. His son is a senior at Northwest High School and is a four star recruit headed to play for the University of Oklahoma next year. Super nice kid, getting it done on the field and in the classroom. He is in the fan vote for the Under...

I can;t seem to find a straight answer on when this new wage for professional and/or administrative exemptions to the FLSA. Does anybody have any insight on this. Both on when it goes into affect and the salary level. I think $50,440 was the proposed level but have heard also as low as...

http://www.bloombergview.com/articles/2015-03-09/republicans-warn-iran-and-obama-that-deal-won-t-last A group of 47 Republican senators has written an open letter to Iran's leaders warning them that any nuclear deal they sign with President Barack Obama's administration won’t last after Obama...

Day after the all star game is the slowest sports day of the year. Sports center is even more of a steaming pile of garbage than usual. Not sure what the sports betters do to get by on this day. Euro Cricket? Plan to acknowledge my wife and children. Maybe grill something up. Do a little...

Reporter from the New Yorker crashed their secret society fraternity. Yucking it up at the country's expense. Come revolution time these guys need to be eaten first. Just really really bad people. These are the so called job creators that we are supposed to love and admire...

Looks very similar to Obamacare in many respects. This article discusses it in some detail. It addresses the big tax increase in the plan on employer contributions to employee health plans. As I understand it that has already been stripped out of the bill which I assume makes it a big deficit...

Even in Washington Reid went pretty hardcore here. Contrary to popular opinion the dude is not dumb, he made a very calculated statement here. Given Romney's non-denial denial this weekend you have to wonder. He went Clintonian with the "so far as I can recall". All I'm saying if is Reid's...

Plenty of other places to argue the ins and outs of the budget battle. I'm wondering what is really gonna happen if the government shuts down. Will social security checks stop coming? Will the mail be delivered? What really happens. I wasn't really plugged in during the last shutdown. I really...

http://andrewsullivan.theatlantic.com/the_...ping-point.html Big time protests in Egypt on the tail of a succesful regime change in Tunisia. Egypt is a major player in the region. Got to feel like with the protest in Iran last year and the revolt in Tunisia that something significant is going...

We had a problem with a trade last year. Priest holmes was out for the season and I dropped him. We apparently had a rule that you have to keep a keeper on your roster regardless of whether he is out for the season or not. Anyway it turned into a giant cluster and people were not happy. It was...
