Works for me. There was not so much tromping as there was splashing in this case.
Well, since this has become the Tangent-Of-The-Hour thread, I’ll point out that how excited I am that, as a curler, I think I have a chance to emigrate to Canada (maybe even get a stipend based on my sweeping skills …)!
Ahh, but the serious curlers uphold the sport’s Scottish roots by having a “wee drrram”.
With four on a team, I’ve often seen the two teams getting together in the clubhouse, and hey! eight bottles of good Scotch get pulled out of backpacks.
Caution: There is nothing wee about a wee dram…
HAAARRDDDD HURRY HAAARRDDD!
(yes, this is a curling thing. Get your mind out of the gutter)
In cahoots from beyond the grave with Chavez and other nogoodniks of history to thwart the Man of Orange by invading America 80 years ago? Is there no end to the lengths the Democrats will go to steal power?
??? 
That was in reply to A German sub dropped several agents on the beach in my home town on Long island during WWII with the intent of sabotage They were later apprehended due to betrayal within their ranks.
Clearly even the mention of her name is powerful enough to send me into flights of incoherent paranoid speculation.
I’ll put my Kraken back into the cupboard and we’ll speak no more about it.
That’s what she said! 
There are some bad hambres around here that can’t wait for an invasion from Mexican taco trucks.
But taco trucks don’t have hamberders.
Actually, I haven’t heard anyone say this since Russ Howard retired. And I watch a lot of curling on TV. The one that amuses me is the Russian teams saying, “Fweep, Fweep!” At least that’s what it sounds like to me.
But the real question is, do we want you? Maybe New England, mid-Atlantic, and west coast states. We’ll trade you Alberta (AKA Texas North, the birthplace of Ted Cruz) for them.
Done!
Where have you gone Mark Russell? America turns it’s lonely eyes to you.
Good news everyone! Dominion is suing Sidney Powell for 1.3 BILLION dollars!
Surely Trump will share some of his millions to help her out, right? He’ll repay her for all her loyalty.
I was literally about to post the same thing 
I like that Dominion isn’t willing to settle at this point.
At what point can Guiliani be added to the list? If I ask my Trumper father in law who Sidney Powell is, he has no idea. But he sure knows who Guiliani is.
Sidney who? Never heard of her.
She was hired to fetch coffee. She kept bringing Trump decaf so she was let go.
Now we should be accurate here. Sidney Powell has been the go to lawyer for extreme right-wing causes for many years. She led the fight by several right-wing organizations (including the Tea Party I believe) to protect their tax-exempt status several years ago. The NRA has her on speed-dial. She wasn’t hired to fetch coffee. Her problem with the Trump organization was that she out-crazied Guiliani and was a threat to Guiliani’s influence. So she had to go.
And Trump isn’t going to waste any of his money on helping someone else. She already has a fund-raising PAC established.
