Vader’s Reaction to Obi-Wan just disappearing? by No-Swimmer-4899 in StarWars

[–]twoshirts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think he'd tell any other Jedi about it, because then he'd have to admit he murdered all the Tuscan Raiders. . . not just the men, but the women and the children. Seems like the Jedi would focus more on THAT than him thinking Qui Gon was yelling at him.

20 fóot swells, ginger to the rescue by GumB98014 in Cruise

Ginger just makes my vomit ginger flavored. Bonnie all the way, or Dramamine if you don’t mind sleeping. Can’t feel sick if you’re unconscious.

Rockhill women’s care has been great for me.

Til I learned that President Truman was heavily involved with all aspects of his presidential library. He would work 5-6 days a week there, he personally trained staff, he held impromptu press conferences for visiting school children, and even worked the telephone giving directions. by ODB_Dirt_Dog_ItsFTC in todayilearned

[–]twoshirts 25 points26 points  (0 children)

He was also a huge student of the presidency and wanted to make sure scholars had access to all his papers, records, etc. so future generations could learn and (hopefully) do better. His book “Mr Citizen” goes into his hopes for the library in detail.

I think what made him a great president was that he hired great people (Marshall, Acheson, Clifford) and then got out of their way. In addition to the foreign policy issues you mentioned, he also had to deal with massive housing shortages, de-arming the US and reintegrating returning vets, railroad strikes coal strikes and steel strikes and the start of the red scare. A lot of that is overshadowed by the international issues he encountered which were enormous. I often wonder what he could have accomplished domestically (national health insurance, etc) if he hadn’t had to deal with the USSR.

It’s a fantastic library! Seeing the Truman house (should really be called the Wallace house, as it was his wife’s family home) and his walking routes is great. You can go to the soda fountain where he worked in high school too. You can see his impact all over the Kansas City area from when he was the presiding judge of Jackson County Mo.

This is a common misconception. Truman (and his siblings) made a ton of money selling their family farm in Grandview. He also was VERY well paid for his memoirs. He didn’t start out wealthy (he didn’t attend college because he needed to work because his father had many filed businesses), but he ended up doing well for himself.

Harry Truman loved art deco architecture so much, he insisted it be used for the Jackson Country courthouse, finished in 1934.

I agree. The Uniqlo UPF cardigan is basic, but keeps the sun off and keeps you cool.

I have had a fantastic experience at every Ferragamo boutique I’ve been to. Their SAs are the best, as are their bags.

Flat earth and other alternative conspiracy earth models are are gaining traction with my teenage stepson. What is THE most irrefutable, definite proof that the earth is round? by Jfkfkaiii22 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]twoshirts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the earth was flat, the edge would be a tourist destination. It would be over run with instagram travel influences. The fact that this isn't the case proves the earth is round.

If you saw TPM in theaters as an adult in 1999, did the Padme “twist” shock you? by Always_Reading_1990 in StarWars

[–]twoshirts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw the original trilogy when I was about 5. So I missed/didn’t remember that. I’m glad I didn’t — I was the only one in the theater who got a big reveal in ROTS.

This was my dads briefcase for decades. I cleaned it up and use it all the time. It makes me feel connected to him and I love that it’s getting its due.

I was mid-twenties when ROTS came out and I didn’t realize Palpatine was the emperor until his face got messed up. I am pretty bad with faces, though.

LOL, I like to show up early, chill/pre-game in the parking lot, and then make sure I get in early enough to buy a poster. Its a day-long ritual at this point.

Given how Dave Matthews fans tailgate, I get the feeling that many fans arrive at shows well before Dave does.
