| I think due to the practical issues if convicted he will be sentenced to house arrest. Nixon was perfect fodder for satire, no politician has come close since. Almost agree. But we had two close runner ups back to back. "W" and Bill Clinton. Both had foibles and peccadillos that lended th... |

| Seem like good picks to me. Dont know as much about the goddesses in question as you. I know a tiny bit about Athena. She was the goddess of wisdom, "the hunt", and war (usually depicted as being as well armed as Xena the warrior princess). And one of the main cities, a city renowned for e... |

| I usually enjoy dreaming. I get along very well with people in my dreams. I am not sure if it's that I'm not autistic in my dreams or the other way around that every one is autistic, but everyone I interact with seems to be "clicking" with me. This is an interesting statement. One of the ... |

| I would have loved to have been around in 1954. The birth of Rock n Roll and the advent of London's original Routemasters both in the same year. I would have been in my glory and I would have been driving my parents crazy with that song. :twisted: Here is an actual British musician reminiscing abou... |

I didnt say it was impossible. I said it was difficult.
Clinton's sex scandals, and W's malapropisms, were an endless fountain of life-giving water for comedians.
Dana Carvey did a great HW Bush. I could post one his vids, but...it wouldnt be...prudent!  |

| What's the evidence that he falsified the records? You mean the money that was paid to Cohen for helping to get Daniels' story bought but not published?
