I just saw that if he appeals and of course if will that he has to bond out the 83.5M so when he loses the appeal the ruling gets paid out. As for being poor the rubes are paying his legal fees

I know they will. It's just funny that he cosplays as rich and is really just a poor grifter.

Yup, rubes that reflect the rich and powerful all the way down to people who can't rub two nickels together. 

Trump is nothing to me just a gross human being inside out, on his own he's meaningless but its these rubes from so many different walks of life that have been drawn out and emulate him that is real scary and unsettling. 

When I'm in a bad spot looking at humanity, I think sometimes in terms of progress we're making as humankind, I think of that cliche dressing up a pig with lipstick comes to mind but then thankfully I come across a great human-being that counters it.

Hindsight 20/20 but if the owner of the Cork and Flame would of just stayed in his place he would still be alive today, call 911 and let them take care of it. Just not worth it with the amount of meth heads and kooks out there.

We've all done stupid stuff where thinking back.... things could have turned out very bad. I had a fight in a bar (Maryland Hotel) which was a dive even back in the late 70's & held my own with this dude until another guy jumped in. Then it was a matter of getting them off me which my friend did  & running for our lives to his car which luckily was parked close to the door. He had managed to get out ahead of me & unlocked his car. We got the hell outta there so fast. My buddy drove like a maniac south on Maryland & then east on Portage. We started feeling safe when we got to Osborne Street & calmed down when we realized they weren't following us. I shudder to this day thinking what might have happened if I had to open the door with a key.... as I know at least two maybe three guys ran out of the pub after us. I was so scared I never even felt the bruising & blood on my face I had. As well as a cut on my right hand as I recall. We had gone to see the strippers & the bar was full of bikers & other low lifes. I never had another bar fight again. Learned my lesson.

Didn't they do that a while back when they killed TSN radio?  Do they own anything else in Winnipeg?

99.9 Bounce and 103.1 Virgin Radio (but they won't dare kill off the latter) and for the record they killed off 1290 in general

An 80-year-old man is facing prison time after he spent nearly 10 years trying to create giant sheep hybrids to sell to hunting facilities. https://ktla.com/news/nationworld/montana-man-pleads-guilty-to-creating-giant-hybrid-sheep/

Interesting.  This happens regularly with domesticated animals, especially on dairy farms

But with wildlife it's a crime.

Sure is, wild animals grow to the size their environment supports, on many small islands off the BC coast the deer population stands under 4 feet in height.  Interfering with the size of a species can throw the ecological balance off kilter almost as much as introducing an invasive species.

Captive hunting operations create interestingly blurred lines.
