Not outside. THAT will be the mob/army location. Try to get from the convention center to your hotel...

Why does this idiot have so much power in the GOP? He is a Senator in a state that would have little problem voting for someone to the right of him if the GOPe doesn’t get its act together.

Seriously, we are being held hostage by him, Romney (two time failed US POTUS candidate), and John McCain (again, two time failed POTUS candidate). Yes, the Bushes are in that mix too, but those three are the more vociferous ones of the lot that are making all of the headlines.

Ryan might be heading back to that list soon.

Amazingly, Prebius seems to be behaving as one would hope. Very strange.

I’d love to be a fly on Mayo’s wall tonight. She was gunned under the bus. I loved her in that position. She was amazing ... for us ... I hope this new guy is the same level of idiot.

Got into a fight with three liberal guys at a rally after 9/11 on Staten Island.

One guy hit me, then another, and I had just had LASIK about a week before lol.

My girlfriend saw it and came and punched the guy, and he punched her back.

I went into a rage and threw as many punches as I could before the police choke hold lol.

That is a SCARY hold. You are afraid to move because you feel like your neck will break if you did.

most helpless feeling i ever had.

A fireman there told him to let me go and a lot of people left after that :)

It was very emasculating for an ex boxer, and it took me months to get over.

You know, the whole macho thing :)

Now at 48, three youngsters would beat me to a pulp!!

I HATE aging!! :)

Lindsey Graham is a self-serving, extremely limited, but equally arrogant failure. He could be more than a failure, if he didn’t put ego before almost everything else, but therein lies the conundrum.

Graham on GOP: 'I'm so sorry we are where we are'

This has-been seems to have joined the Old, Ugly, unindicted Criminal, Fat Cow's club:
Totally oblivious to the difference between "sorry" and accountable... in the criminal sense.

“...at 48, three youngsters would beat me to a pulp!! I HATE aging!”

At 63, I’m still pretty strong for my age. I routinely out-work my employees, many of whom are young enough to be my grandchildren. I suppose it’s because I’ve continued to do the same work I’ve done since I was in my twenties.

Still, I’m no fool. If confronted with a rampaging young bull, I’d probably pull my knife or pistol, rather than try to beat him the old fashioned way.

You did what I didn’t. Stay in shape.

There’s NO reason I shouldn’t be at 75 percent of what I was at 35.

You took the path less traveled, and it has made all the difference :)

Too many 40 and even 30 somethings i know are VERY overweight and get NO exercise, present company pretty much included.

Good for you!

Don't be hard on yourself. My career path simply led me in a direction that compelled me to be physically active from day to day. With my education, I could have easily chosen a path that was much less physically demanding, but I didn't (which I truly regret some days!).

I think back to my granddad, who worked with his hands from the time he was a boy, until dementia took his mind and skills away from him in old age. Who knows where I'll end up? I can only hope to be half the man Granddaddy was.

I know a very good choke hold that transitions into a neck break by a little leverage shift, if necessary. And quite a few other tricky tricks. Getting a stronger grip with a pair of cheap grippers is good preparation for a lot of them. Go for speed when they get easier to close. Love to do a little seminar sometime.

Lindsey had better pull that string again. His words are getting old and worn.

He came from behind me. Would have never let him get that close in front.

It sounds like you know some scary stuff!!

It immobilized me completely. I wasn’t about to punch him after he let me go :)

At least I got to punch some liberals!

You’re going to live into your 90s and a cure for dementia will be here within 10 years.

Sorry about your granddad’s fate. Bet he was a great man.

If we’re talking percentages, I wish i was 30 percent the man my father was. He died when I was 14 but I remember a lot. All good :)

My cousin’s sister in law has Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. It’s MAD COW disease in humans!! 300 cases every year and at 57 she’ll be senile in a month and dead within 5.

Just wow. That’s why we have to pray and enjoy every day. Life is unpredictable to say the least.

Have a good night/morning.
