FWIW, I've been very interested in this case since it was filed and slowly worked it's way up the chain. My guess is that it's going to be Roberts's call, and he is unpredictable as far as I'm concerned.
It will undoubtedly be taken by Trump to his "Supreme" Court:
"THIS SUPREME COURT IS THE BIGGEST, BEST AND MOST SUPREMEST COURT IN THE HISTORY OF THE UNITED STATES, and IT'S ALL MINE !!!)
Thanks so very much, Catch... I'm really happy to know that I can buy that watch, but @Observant1 has me so totally outclassed that it's probably not worth it anymore.
Well, I was gonna buy myself one of those really expensive Swiss watches so all you guys would be impressed, but I guess I'll have to stay with my good ol' Seiko. Darn. A day late and a dollar short. Again.

Excerpts from a current Wall Street Journal article by Jason Zweig
The excerpts shown here are a very small section of Mr. Zweig's entire report. I stronly recommend that his report be read in it's entir…
She's going to "get" a lot more before this is over... he's just begun. The poison that's being injected into America is going to remain in our bloodstream for generations.
@Observant1- What a great find! Takes me back to the 70s for sure. Unfortunately my hearing is so degraded that without captions I can't really understand much of anything anymore. But for those who don't need captions, this group of programs is a r…
"why proper diversification means always having some parts of your portfolio that aren't performing well."
Well, FD1k certainly sneers at that sort of thing. He don't need no stinkin' diversification.
"I don't claim to know which stage the stock market is in."
Well, I don't know for sure either, but I'll put all of my money on "it isn't the Hedge phase", and a whole lot of my money on "it isn't the Hedge phase or the Speculative phase".
My hearing is severely compromised, so email or chat is the only way that I can effectively communicate. I've used chat on Schwab a fair number of times, and found their chat people to be very courteous and helpful.
@Derf- well, here in CA the local counties typically enforce their own building codes. There is also a state building code, which I'm assuming (always dangerous ! ) would apply in areas where there is no local building code. I would further infer…
No pilot. Electric ignition. Yes, I think that's the standard setup now. That's very good to know, because my workbench is about 20' from the water heater.

Many rational individuals believe that Ms. Gabbard lacks the requisite Intelligence for the Director of National Intelligence position.
@cheapneon1: Unless Mr Ruffles happens to read this thread he will not become aware of your question.
In situations like this it's best to use @MrRuffles in your post. That should generate a flag on his account the next time that he visits MFO.
@hank- As you have personally noted with respect to your occasional structural improvements, inflation and sometime scarcity of required materials or qualified tradespeople have seriously increased construction costs. The Fed renovation is subject t…
"Tulsi Gabbard claimed to have seen allegations Hillary Clinton had used "heavy tranquilizers" during her time in office."
"Claimed to have seen". Boy, there's a reliable source for you. They must be really desperate to take the heat off Trump &am…
@Catch22- Hello there. Glad to see you posting a lot more. A question about the above- so much of financial success comes at the expense of the party on the other side of a trade. Assuming for the sake of discussion that everyone has the same AI adv…
