OT a bit, but, um, hey, did anyone notice that we have a new Triple Crown winner? First time in 37 years!
I mean, Wow! (And I’m not even a racing fan.)

Looking forward to the recipes if you continue that. They were fantastic. (New Zealanders taught me to eat fresh tomatoes on toast; habit still going strong.)
Hillary Rodham Clinton appears to be dispensing with the nationwide electoral strategy that won her husband two terms in the White House and brought white working-class voters and great stretches of what is now red-state America back to Democrats.
Instead, she is poised to retrace Barack Obama’s far narrower path to the presidency
@Omnes Omnibus: I was going to say that buying them is no good because they have to be rusty. I am sure some smart person could come up with a way of selling the rustiest ones, for political purposes.

@Omnes Omnibus: Indeed. If one is lucky one gets sent to make beer.

judging from the last three or four “football” threads, it seems that very few people really give a shit about soccer. We have some comments about rugby, horse racing and Hillary. Soccer, not so much.
but it looks good on you, though.
(sorry, can’t resist taking a jab at soccer and its fans….I have issues…what can I say? I’m sure the fans are having a very rewarding time watching these Women’s World Cup games….oops….matches. Lot’s of excitement on the field…..oops…..pitch.)

@magurakurin: As one of the people who made rugby comments, I can say that I will start taking an interest in the Women’s World Cup once it enters the elimination phase. I think a lot of people are that way.

@Omnes Omnibus: fair point, but it still doesn’t resolve my issues. Soccer, the Olympics and Apple…haters gotta hate…guilty as charged.

Well, looks like the NYT is emanating giant squid clouds of butt-hurt b/c Hillary’s flipping the script from ’08:http://mobile.nytimes.com/2015/06/07/us/politics/hillary-clinton-traces-friendly-path-troubling-party.html?_r=1&referrer=

2008 365/173 69,297,997/59,597,520
Clinton won five more electoral votes than Obama, and the Times wants to talk about Obama’s “far narrower path?”

@efgoldman: And some of them so lonely!
Also, too. For anyone interested Netherlands won 1-0 (though I didn’t watch it, just reporting the result)

Fuck the High Broderist New York Fucking Times. Fuck them! With a rusty pitchfork, fuck!
Valdivia (The Terrible)
@fuckwit: I think we are going to need more than one rusty implement. I am willing to bring my own.

@Valdivia (The Terrible): I would need to go up to our cabin, but I think I could find a few in the shed.

@Valdivia (The Terrible): Some people want to monetize everything.
Valdivia (The Terrible)
@Omnes Omnibus: True true. But I wasn’t thinking of the monetization angle, more about making sure we had enough. For the movement.
Omnes Omnibus
@Valdivia (The Terrible): We could just have the local soviets ‘nationalize” the things.
Valdivia (The Terrible)
@Omnes Omnibus: Oh yes, we could liberate them. Excellent idea. Me and my false consciousness talking about selling them.
Omnes Omnibus
@Valdivia (The Terrible): “Liberate.” That is the word I was seeking.
Omnes Omnibus
Wow, fresh tomatoes mentioned on this thread as well. It must be the season.
Valdivia (The Terrible)
@Omnes Omnibus: Not to worry. You will be refered for a refresher lingo course tout suite ;)
Omnes Omnibus
@Valdivia (The Terrible): Is the one of those courses where “intellectuals’ and “liberals” work with their hands for a while?
