It's like rain on your wedding day.

It's like a free ride when you've already paid.

It's like rain on your wedding day.

I'm way past your Sister Socialist post but I don't think it's too late to say "Power to the Proletariat!" and Bernie Sanders rocks! End of my politicking.

What is this Rick Steves meme?

Whenever Trostol gets bored with a guest he says "Oh look, Rick Steves is on".

[trostol]

LOL - A little Michael Crichton ??

yup..never gotten around to reading it so i figured i would..been on something of a JP kick lately

[ShayP]

I did hear about a reboot but am uncertain of the validity of the rumor.

[sydtron]

[TigerLily]

Has Art or guest talked about the Nuclear Doomsday Clock yet?

[zeebo]

That's not funny, George is not funny. Nope. Nada.

But he's running for prez isn't he?  :

[Noorynoid]

Hey look at it this way, we haven't had a world war for 70 years, time to get things hopping! We got vendors just dying to see their stuff blowing shit up.

[DangerDog]

I'm not a red arm-band wearing commy either, but you know what - FEEL THE BERN! Sanders in 2016!

[SciFiAuthor]

Deacon SciFi...   Your department ?

Make love, not war. My plan is to introduce the Russians to C2C if the war hits. I'll have that somebitch won in two weeks. They'll be screaming for mercy.

[trostol]

trostol's man crush.

George is running under the pizza roll party.

Starr is interesting but words don't really have the grab factor. The Congress (actually, everyone) should be required to watch the documentary "Trinity and Beyond" annually.  The true meaning of "awesome" and "terrifying" become clearer.

Close but nope, I like them both but for me, Floyd forever

[AppealPlay]

I'm disappointed.  Art should have booted this fella and gone open lines.

[Bradsmith313]

oh yes...yes...I remember the series too. Sure. Isn't there a new version of the movie coming out too?

It's in production hell. They want to use the original concept from the novel, with the Age of Renewal at 21.

I'm braaping by myself.  I keep hearing this noise.  Turns out my arm rest is loose.  This listening to radio programs is tough work.  i can see why Hoagland struggles actually doing a show.  I kid Richard! I kid!

I'm braaping by myself.

I just don't know how to respond.  Happy for you, though.

[Sandra Kristen]

Has Art or guest talked about the Nuclear Doomsday Clock yet?

I don't think so. But I've only been half paying attention.

[TigerLily]

And who would've thought, it figures

Isn't it ironic?

[AppealPlay]

If you had to die by nuke then what a better way to go than ride it down!

[=Schlyder=]

the Inuit might survive.

  Uhh...yeah...no...

[Sandra Kristen]

Imagine Richard riding it down. That'd be the greatest thing ever.

[TigerLily]

I'll wormhole

[Barfly]

I want a Concealed Carry Nuke license, nobody would mess with me
