    Gee, Think There is a LITTLE Conflict of Interest Here?

    Why would a Federal Judge, serving on the board of a NGO that was receiving $100+ MILLION from the government be allowed to rule on a EO from the President of the US to stop funding??? https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/02/racist-judge-jack-mcconnell-who-halted-president-trumps/

    BREAKING 01/31/25 6:20PM EST: Plane crashes near Philadelphia mall. ETA: Updates coming in now.

    Lear 55 was the first corporate jet my former company bought in 1979/80. No one wanted to ride in it because the first one was rumored to have crashed in South Africa. Maybe that was a rumor the executives started so the peons wouldn't take an open seat. The Big guy was notorious for...

    Anyone have their big dog on Librela for pain from OA?

    My GDS is 11-12 (rescue so not 100% sure). He is not doing the miles of walks anymore, jumping in/out of the Polaris, or really jumping into the truck any more. He has a custom built ramp. He has been on Adequan for about 18 months and doesn't seem to be helping. We use Rimadyl occasionally...
