    I obviously don’t want Trump to win, but given the logic that he will lose in the general and has torn the Republican party asunder, is it really selfish of those people who resisted him?

    I mean, they would say they’re on the side of the Republican party, which is a large group of people (whose views I disagree with viscerally) while Trump is on his own side, using the party for his own purposes.

    Who is being selfish again?

    Trump was not and is in it to win. He was in it to suck up the oxygen as in capturing the media and create havoc among the R candidates. Most of all to get rid of them from becoming the nominee. The question now is has he decided to really become president or is he still in place to keep any other candidate get the nomination by whatever rule would allow it to happen.

    I mean, they would say they’re on the side of the Republican party, which is a large group of people (whose views I disagree with viscerally) while Trump is on his own side, using the party for his own purposes.

    I think the counter-argument is twofold:

    1) There is obviously a very large constituency within the Republican party that does want him as the nominee. They may or may not be an absolute majority of the party, but they’re the strongest single group within the party. Like it or not, he’s the logical choice as nominee, and the rest of the party needs to accept that any play by the rules they set.

    2) The rest of the party can’t reasonably undermine him as nominee and then turn around and complain about losing the election.

    Shorter: the problem with division is something Trump exploited to earn the nomination, not something he created.

    @opiejeanne: No. We get a pointy egg occasionally, but it’s fairly rare — maybe one in 200 or so. In my career as a chicken wrangler, one thing that has surprised me is just how much variation there is in the eggs. We get tiny, humongous, smooth, bumpy, nearly white, fairly dark brown, etc. Their feed is consistent, but they do free range daily. Maybe that accounts for it. I don’t know.

    @scav:
    There are plenty of species of birds that lay very pointy eggs, and it doesn’t seem to be a problem. There’s a relationship between the shape of eggs and the style of nest in which they’re laid. The greater the risk of the egg rolling out of the nest, the pointier it tends to be on one end, because that means it rolls in a circle instead of a straight line.

Others of you are still wondering how you can possibly live the lives you were born to lead. But no matter how isolated or scared you may feel today, the Department of Justice and the entire Obama Administration wants you to know that we see you; we stand with you; and we will do everything we can to protect you going forward. Please know that history is on your side. This country was founded on a promise of equal rights for all, and we have always managed to move closer to that promise, little by little, one day at a time. It may not be easy – but we’ll get there together.

    Harry Reid Ties GOP To Obstruction, Chickens And Trump
    The Senate minority leader says his Republican colleagues are to blame for the rise of The Donald.
    “Donald Trump is the Republican presidential nominee. So let’s think about that,” Reid said in opening remarks on the Senate floor.
    “The party of Abraham Lincoln, Theodore Roosevelt and many other Republicans like Ronald Reagan, Dwight Eisenhower — the party of these great men — nominated a misogynistic, anti-Latino, anti-Muslim, anti-immigrant xenophobe,” Reid said.
    …
    “He’s the nominee of the Republican Party but it’s the nominee the Republican leaders deserve,” Reid said.
    “Republican senators need to stop waffling about Donald Trump,” Reid added. “I hear a number of Republican senators say, ‘I’m not going to the convention.’ Well, that solves the problem, doesn’t it? Republican senators need to say whether they’re going to vote for this guy. The Republican Party’s chickens have come home to the roost in the form of Donald Trump.”

    @Betty Cracker: Interesting. I don’t remember seeing pointy eggs from our chickens when I was a kid. The white hens laid white eggs, the brown hens laid brown eggs, and size was the variation. They were Cornish cross and Leghorns. The leghorns laid white eggs that were almost all the same size. They were the “workhorse” of the egg ranching business back then. The Cornish crosses laid eggs of all sizes and sometimes double yolked eggs. One year a friend gave us a 55 gallon drum with red Canadian wheat and their eggyolks were almost pink. Went back to the usual corn and the color returned to bright yellow.
    There was a tiny egg one day, about the size of a robin’s egg, and we joked that the rooster had laid it. Looking back on it that might have been a joke by my grandfather that went unnoticed. He lived next door and the first year my parents planted a garden he went out after dark and by the light of his flashlight planted 4″ bean plants where Mom had planted beans the day before. I guess her reaction was hilarious, but I was so small I have no memory of it.

Minor giggle in an otherwise dull task. I’m not even sure central offices have to make too much geographic sense within an area code — probably were originally assigned more or less in block, but growth in demand probably messed them up long before it started nibbling away at area codes.

    @Lyn: My freshman year in college, I set up in a library carrel that was right by the humorists section. Benchley let me do a lot of procrastinating.

    @Shana: Benchley used to be part of the curriculum in California HS English. I remember one particular short story of a man telling about his long-dead friends (or was it relatives?), walking together in the evening, coming back from fishing. Of course they weren’t dead and had just gone fishing earlier that day, so a while later when the two did appear the guy he was telling the story to became very agitated and ran away.

    I’m sure I’ve told that story all wrong because I get it tangled with a comment my somewhat demented grandmother made about my long dead grandpa and their son who would be coming along shortly after going fishing because the sun was going down.

    @Betty Cracker:

    We used to get eggs from the next door neighbors, who had been picking up “exotic” chickens for decades, in every color of the rainbow, nearly. Pastels, but pink, green, blue, and tans and almost yellows. I forget the names of the different breeds that would lay colored eggs, but they were reliable about the colors.

    And they almost never got white eggs. Just didn’t like how they looked…
