    hahaha... here we go.

    on a serious note, that anchovy gave a helluva speech.

    It never ends. PJfan has a whole file drawer of Trump photos. My guess is we ain't seen nothin' yet.

    i love the photos. i feel like The Don is talking to me in the flesh.

    Well, dang it! Having some fun on the D.T. thread but just got this sent to me. Many of my book business buying and selling accts are through Paypal. Heck for breakfast!

    http://www.nytimes.com/2016/07/21/technology/peter-thiels-embrace-of-trump-has-silicon-valley-squirming.html?smprod=nytcore-ipad&smid=nytcore-ipad-share&_r=0

    "When the technology investor Peter Thiel takes the stage just before Donald J. Trump at the Republican convention this week, he will become the most prominent public face of a species so endangered it might as well be called extinct: the Silicon Valley Trump supporter.

    Nobody knows what Mr. Thiel, a co-founder of PayPal, will say (he declined an interview), but in the tech industry, his appearance at the convention is being greeted with more apprehension than excitement. Venture capitalists have a special term for investment opportunities that offer the potential for a big return but also carry a great deal of risk: high beta. For Silicon Valley’s political aspirations, Mr. Thiel’s speech is the ultimate high-beta performance."

    Whatever one may think of Trump, Ivanka strikes me as an intelligent and well-spoken young woman.

    Should be an interesting watch!

    I agree. Very sharp. She actually almost seems presidential, whatever that means.

    Or maybe a new TV show, Dynasty II ?

    Are those females working at the same levels of seniority and doing the same work as the males? If so, then yes, that's bullshit. If they are paid less, because they are in a different position, maybe phone outreach for example, then that makes sense.

    Ivanka was bragging about how all his executives are woman. Obviously a different venture, but still...

    Holy hell could it get anymore negative? Wasn't Reagan a beacon of hope?
