So if you could live anywhere, where would you live?

Gordonopolis Island, where the power is tide generated, the internet is fast, the women are topless and under 35, and the beer flows like wine.

I would rent a condo there.

I could give you a list of places I'd move to and why, but I could also match that list with the same places and why I wouldn't live there.

Younger and single me would have a vastly different list than old married me.

Am I limited to a state or can I pick anywhere in the universe?

Let's say your current situation in life (married + kids), but you have enough $$$ or can work remotely to live anywhere that exists.

I’m still debating this...

Beto should probably drop out.

A majority of Americans think Trump will win a second term.

Dear Dems,

If this doesn't wake you up to the fact that most of the U.S. isn't on board with your insanity, I'm not sure what will. Losing to this clown once, fine, nobody expected it. Losing to him a second time? Ouch.

The Dems game plan (Please correct me if I'm wrong):

1. Turn social issues into the talking points for every election instead of actual state, nation, and worldwide policies.
2. Make it so illegals can vote.
3. Eliminate the electoral college.
4. Take total and permanent control of the country.

I feel like #1 and #4 are not different based on party.

#4 absolutely agree.

#1 I'd argue the Dems are much, much better at it and winning easily.

It helps when 90% of the press is helping you on that front. I was in Kroger a couple of weekends ago and the checker was telling me they are moving to paper bags as their default bagging method as a store policy. You know... because the press keeps telling us we need to save the turtles. I told him I was working in that exact Kroger 32 years ago when they went to plastic as the default bagging method because the press kept telling us we needed to save the trees and the landfills.
