FFF enterprises ain't that big a company - 1500 employees. And 2 mill's a healthy chunk of change. No reason why they should return it. But if they do, I'd kick up a big fuss about doing it for the good of the taxpayer, etc. Of course, we are talking about a pharmaceutical company who accepted an order from a public body *knowing* it was buying the drug under false pretences so maybe ethics not a huge part of their thinking...

This would be hilarious if it wasn't a frankly offensive waste of public funds. Morons. - Comment on MAGA media looks to turn White House briefing room into a battlefield (2021-01-27 10:15:14)
“Organizations or individuals who traffic in conspiracy theories, propaganda and lies to spread disinformation will not be tolerated, and we’ll work with the WHCA to decide how to handle those instances moving forward.” Seems like most of them won't last long with a press pass anyway. Sean Spicer shouldn't be allowed within a mile of the building. His tenure as Press Sec was nothing but a tissue of whoppers. - Comment on Top Slots you must play online (2021-01-26 16:18:19)
Slots on a computer, whether it be in your home or on a bar in Vegas have almost seemed even more of a con than their mechanical variety. You put your buck in and the computer tells you whether you've lost it or not. It's not like pulling a handle and watching the reels spin. I know that statistically, they're all bullshit and that over a long enough timeline, you're going to get back 84% (or whatever it says on the front of the machine) back, regardless of skill or luck. Otherwise, they wouldn't make sense as a business model. But somehow a computer telling I've lost seems worse. Also, is the computer I'm actually gambling on located in *my* jurisdiction or the *server's*? If the latter, couldn't you put the server in, I dunno, Russia or Eritrea or the middle of the Atlantic, tell everyone it's going to pay out and then never actually pay a cent? Who'd know and who could do anything about it if they did? - Comment on Giuliani sued for 13 billion by Dominion Voting systems over false election fraud claims (2021-01-26 12:15:41)
Not sure but a successful insanity plea would have to have some impact on whether he can still be a lawyer, one would think. - Comment on STAR TREK (2021-01-26 12:04:39)
Jesus, Kirk was a looker in his day. I wonder if there's a correlation between being super good looking in your youth, losing it and being an asshole as you get older. Certainly happened to Shatner and you can't help but think that what he saw in the mirror wasn't what everyone else saw as he aged. And it sure as shit happened to Alex Jones. Mind you, there's likely brain damage and substance abuse to think of there also. But look at this guy, I'm sure that's what he still sees. https://www.reddit.com/r/pics/comments/bihbwj/rightwing_personality_alex_jones_at_22/ - Comment on Dredd Anderson Poster by Miguel Mercado and a little me (2021-01-26 06:41:22)
Nice job. - Comment on Sarah Sanders expected to announce bid for Arkansas governor on Monday (2021-01-25 17:46:29)
"With the radical left now in charge of Washington, your governor is your last line of defense. In fact, your governor must be on the front line," Radical left? Biden? You have got to be fucking kidding me. - Comment on BOAT (2021-01-25 11:33:10)
I was wondering that. Seems like you'd definitely need to make sure the motor was 'off' at the very least. - Comment on EXCALIBUR (2021-01-25 10:33:11)
In case you were wondering what happened to the sword from that movie (and let's face it, you weren't), it's now owned by this guy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arthur_Uther_Pendragon The story goes that he saw the prop in a antique/weapon shop where it was marked 'not for sale'. The guy said he'd only sell it to "the once and future king of England" so Arthur got his passport. At least, that's how he told it to me. :D I grew up near him. He likes a cider and once challenged my dad to a duel. - Comment on GUITAR (2021-01-23 18:42:35)
As always, it's hard to imagine the gig where this would be appropriate but it would almost be worth owning one just to go to auditions with. I still think it would be more useful than this. Which if you search "double neck guitar" on wish.com you'll see loads of examples of. - Comment on Three Weeks In America (2021-01-23 18:37:06)
It may have been late when I wrote that. :D But the point stands. - Comment on Marjorie Taylor Greene files articles of impeachment against Biden (2021-01-23 18:34:48)
You've got a chance to redress the balance by imprisoning Trump though. - Comment on TWICE (2021-01-22 11:07:32)
I don't know what an orthogonal argument is and Google isn't helping and it seems like a concept it would be useful to know. Would you mind giving me a quick explanation or a link? Ta. - Comment on GUITAR (2021-01-22 06:35:04)
Ooh. That's nice. What is it?
