Yeah, saw that. Very bland statement, and leaves enough gaps that you can drive a truck-bomb through.
Then you can appreciate the danger I was in as a stupid unknowing kid.

It’s blown out of control here. How many times have I grabbed a box of cookies off the shelf only to find the dreaded words ‘gluten free’ in much smaller print.
sawdust.
I have a friend who has celiac and I enjoy working on hors d’oevres that won’t kill him. Gluten intolerance is real, but spare me people who have no real medical reason for jumping on the bandwagon and ruining breads and sauces for the rest of us.

All while your firm’s phone numbers are getting disconnected. Passing strange, that.

Interesting info on Pierce
Neither Pierce nor Marshall responded Wednesday to Insider’s inquiries, and multiple phone numbers for Pierce’s law firm, Pierce Bainbridge P.C., have been disconnected.
Insider received an email late Wednesday from one of Pierce’s colleagues at the National Constitutional Law Union, a conservative legal organization Pierce founded to rival the left-leaning American Civil Liberties Union, with an update on his condition.
The colleague, Brody Womack, confirmed that Pierce was hospitalized on Monday “due to symptoms that he believed might have been related to COVID-19.” He neither confirmed nor denied that Pierce was diagnosed with COVID-19 and was on a ventilator.
“John appears to have been suffering from dehydration and exhaustion in relation to his tireless work on behalf of his clients, including the many defendants he represents in connection with the January 6, 2021 protest at the Capitol,” the email read. “John, a former Army tank platoon leader, is a natural-born fighter – both in and out of the courtroom. While John remains under the care of his doctors, we expect him to make a full recovery. John and his family thank everyone for their concern.”
And yet today, Marshall appeared on Pierce’s behalf, but didn’t confirm anything on his condition. Judge set status on that to Sept. 2,

And when John’s tireless fighting ends, his death certificate will be a public record that says COVID-19 on it.

Oh yeah. I was 16 or so when this happened. That sow had to be 500 pounds. I was maybe 160, soaking wet. She wasn’t particularly mean, but she had a thing about sweet corn. I guess she was my grandfather’s pet or something. She never farrowed to my knowledge, and she was still living in the sty a couple of years later when he died.

Rye flour is low in gluten but it’s not no gluten.

Original. Fuck all that other noise.
It puts the ingredients ON its Triscuit, not IN it, or it gets the hose again.

The bit about “natural-born fighter” jumped out at me too. It’s the kind of thing you remind yourself about a friend who really isn’t doing well.

I have no inside knowledge and don’t know any of the people involved. But from this outside observer’s position, it sounds like the grift is falling apart in conjunction with (admittedly speculative) substance abuse issues. The man does not seem to be at all stable, and none of his J6 clients appear to have any money capable of getting him paid. It just seems like he was collecting a bunch of right-wing celebrity clients and expecting the money to start flowing in. Instead, he’s gotten canned by Kyle Rittenhouse and accused of a bunch of financial misconduct, he’s way out of his depth in the J6 cases, he’s in the hospital (maybe), and he (maybe) can’t pay his telephone bill.

You’re kidding I hope. I like original Wasa Bread okay, but that stuff, the “thins” as they call them here, is ghastly.
That reminds me of one my father’s jokes.
Why don’t pigs whistle?
Because they can’t.
