Stock Market?

Snip: Didn't know you were ever able to do that. You? Leave politics aside? Snipe: Probably not. But when I try other things, my penchant for it just crops up. Snip: You need a hobby.

Comments from Snipe
Hi Everyone, Snip is off this month so it's just me, Snipe, sniping at things as I am prone to do. So - here we go with a few tidbits: Gov Landry – Louisiana: “If you want to respect the rule of law, you’ve got to start from the original lawgiver, which was Moses.” Wow, as I recall the story, Moses didn't write those commandments, he just carried the … [Read More...]
Some Thoughts – FOWLEDGE
SNIPE: Ms. Snip is off on vacation so I'll just share some random thoughts about elected officials, tv commentators, state legislatures, salaries. If it weren't so sad it would be laughable. A Western State enacts a 'law' that went on the books before the state was a state. What was it? A territory law? One thing is certain, back then (and again now) it ignores at least … [Read More...]

They show contact for some snipping tool that has nothing to do with our posts. Even I had to fight several screens to get here. SNIP: Do we need to use a legal form to change our names? SNIPE: … [Read More...]
Really? I Don’t Understand
Snip: That orange guy has a lot of followers. Snipe: Yep. I just wonder about them. I think I know more than enough about him. He has been convicted of sexual assault by a jury. He has been convicted of financial fraud by a judge. Snip: He says he is innocent. Says they are out to get him. Snipe: Okay, who are … [Read More...]
Scandal? What scandal!
SNIP: Did you hear about the latest Washington scandal? SNIPE: Exactly which one are you talking about, the one with trials already adjudicated and others setting dates for hearings? SNIP: I understand there is a congressman who says he has ten people who know about some bank or computer or laptop or something. What’s that about? SNIPE: Just some nonsense being … [Read More...]
