You're right there by where the earthquake happened though. Of course your mind is jumping straight to concerns like this. Makes perfect sense to me.

Fukushima Volume 2? Probably not given that the Fukushima earth quake was a 9.0. These measurements are exponential so there's a pretty sizable difference between 7.6 and 9.0.

7.6 is still enough for some damage though. Hopefully that's all at a minimum for you folks over there. Best wishes.

Yeah, the contrast to Joe and Trump is impressive. Even Joe being old and with the problems he had could stay awake through a meeting and didn't need to restrict all his activities to the back half of the day because he couldn't even work a full day anymore. And boy, if Trump's rambling and nonsensical run on speeches were bad the first time around they're awful this time. I'd pay money for one of Joe's folksy stories rather than listen to another one of Trump's bizarre stream of consciousness rants that rarely make any sense.

I'll take it from your changing of the subject to pardon's that you're conceding Trump is acting in incredibly corrupt form right now with this auto pen nonsense as well.

How on earth does that data refute what I said? There's no reason Corollas selling 232k units a year and my statement can't both be true. It doesn't have to be a universally held stigma for what I said to be true.

Just look at our small car sales versus almost any other first world country. Something has to explain the massive disparity in sales.

....que people taking these on the highway. While there are some vehicles allowed on our roads that can't go on the highway few in America are used to a car that can't be.

It's also a cultural thing as in my experience, there are quite a few Americans who look down on small car drivers. I feel certain at least part of that is people associating small cars with being low income. Another part likely comes from whatever is motivating so many Americans to buy ridiculously oversized vehicles most have no legitimate need for.

It's all ridiculous of course but we're a very car centric culture.

Only among Trump's worshippers who for some reason believe all his nonsense without question.

As I said, there is nothing unusual about Biden using an autopen. This is a problem completely invented by Trump so he can illegally overturn things Biden signed off on which is the entire reason the Supreme Court is now ruling on the issue.

I had a free trial a while back and I couldn't find any stations I enjoyed. Even the stations that would seem to cater to the genres I enjoy played bands I did not enjoy far too often for me to find value in the station. It was really weird how consistent that problem was as I never had that problem with local radio stations in the 20th century.

They're also expensive relative to their Korean competition who have by now pretty much caught up to them completely. Outside of more customizable options one can pay through the nose for at the dealer they don't really offer much more than Hyundai as far as I can tell and yet similar models Honda offers typically sell for a couple grand more. Then again I'm not a big car guy so maybe I'm missing something.

President Autopen? Which president is that? Most presidents have used autopens going back an awful long ways. Even Trump uses one, he has literally said as such.

Love that you stand by your claims so much that you post AC.

There's also the fact that presidents have been using various forms of auto pens for 100 to 200 years depending on what you want to call an autopen https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... . Trump has even stated he uses one as well https://www.ms.now/morning-joe... .

In a first world country you're correct. In general, you are most definitely not.

Oops, the city didn't put it up. Never the less, it's a weird character to put a statue up for.

I enjoyed the heck out of at least the first Robocop movie when I was a kid and still think it's a pretty fun dumb action/sci fi movie. That being said I think it's a little weird putting a statue up of a cop who frequently went around executing people without any form of due process even if it is a fictional character.
