  1. How Tall is Michael Bloomberg, Really? "He's 5'5", or I'll eat my hat. President Donald Trump recently mocked Democratic presidential candidate Michael Bloomberg as “a 5’4” mass of dead energy.” Immediately, the mainstream press and tech companies were out playing defense for the diminutive billionaire founder of Bloomberg LP and former mayor of New York City. A National Public Radio host in a blasé tone rebuffed this as another one of the President’s lies, stating that Bloomberg was in reality 5’8”. Presumably the host relied on Google for her fact checking, because that’s the height that the tech giant lists. As a former Bloomberg News employee, I heard this and shook my head in disbelief. Google is lying. I’ve seen the man in person, and he’s strikingly short. My colleagues and I estimated him at 5’5”. Reviewing morning news reports, I note that Google isn’t the only one that inflates Bloomberg’s height. The Daily Caller and NBC News give him 5’7”, the Washington Free Beacon 5’6”. Apparently Bloomberg himself has said 5’7”, but then he’s also claimed to be 5’10”, which is taller than I am and contrary to my memory of having to tilt my head downward when I stood near him on one occasion several years ago..."
  2. At :15 of the first video -- One of the Doobie Brothers was in attendance!
  3. Yup, he's got the black vote, no prob. ?
  4. I counted one African-American. Whole video.
  5. Jasper banged a Pegula daughter, too? ?
  6. Agreed. Xi has kept a low profile for a reason. He knows he's in deep doo-doo.
  7. I wish Tyrod all the success in the world on another team.
  8. What about her?
  9. Her former friends are a bunch of knitwits. ?
  10. If Detroit's dealing a WR, I'm guessing it's Marvin Jones Jr., who's 29 and in the last year of his contract.
  11. If Buttigieg pulls this out Bernie Bros are gonna lose their *****. ?
  12. AOC doesn't wanna let cows fart. That's your chance to show you really care, Joaquin. (P.S. I'm glad you died in Gladiator)
  13. Not a fan of SNL, but this is pretty damn funny... ?
  14. Note that the date reads 'Dec. 20, 971.' That is NOT an error.
  15. I was being facetious. It's what I do on Sunday mornings. ?
  16. I like the idea, but given what I saw in this thread, it will become this within 15 minutes:
  17. What are the odds of an openly gay female?
  18. With the 45th pick in the NFL draft, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers select Terrance Steele, OT, Texas Tech. @bkep32 and the Denver Broncos are on the clock. He'll be protecting someone not named Winston in 2021.
  19. Spot on analysis. I grew up with a cold, affectionless father, and when I became a father, I promised I'd be different. Three years in, I don't get how a parent can refrain from being affectionate with his 3-year old.
