The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.

EXCLUSIVE: Jeffrey Epstein had a painting of Bill Clinton wearing a blue DRESS and red heels and lounging in the Oval Office inside his Manhattan mansion - visitor reveals bizarre image inside pedophile's $56m lair

https://babylonbee.com/news/bill-clinto ... suicide-is
PHILADELPHIA, PA—Speaking to a packed 30-seat arena, Bill Clinton remarked on Jeffrey Epstein's recent passing, saying that Epstein's cause of death "really depends on what your definition of 'suicide' is."

"Did Epstein commit suicide?" asked an attendee at the event.

"I did not have murderous relations with that man!" Mr Clinton insisted.
:wow:

This story gets stranger by the day.

There is hope for the future though. After an election maybe. The law is restrictive and shortsighted !!

Itks nice to see that there are still sensible conservatives around, like Dubya’s speech writer, David Frum:
August 10, 1969: San Clemente, California—President Richard Nixon accused his predecessor Lyndon Baines Johnson of complicity in the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. Speaking with reporters on the first day of a 10-day stay at his Pacific Ocean vacation home …

Of course, that never happened. Obviously. How could it; how dare it? But had it happened, such an accusation—by a president, against a former president—would have convulsed the United States and the world. Today, President Donald Trump accused his predecessor Bill Clinton—or possibly his 2016 campaign opponent, the former first lady and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton—of complicity in the death of the accused sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein.

Many seem to have responded with a startled shrug. What do you expect? It’s just Trump letting off steam on Twitter.

Reactions to actions by Trump are always filtered through the prism of the ever more widely accepted view—within his administration, within Congress, within the United States, and around the world—that the 45th president is a reckless buffoon; a conspiratorial, racist moron, whose weird comments should be disregarded by sensible people.

David Frumm the progressive conservative.

I watched him in that monk debate with that walking liver cancer Steve Bannon.

Kind of thought he was wishy washy/ snowflake like. But compared to Bannon it was like watching Jesus.

Bannon was like “the future belongs to populism, but will it be populist right or populist left?”

He then goes on to describe the day the Wall Street bankers walked into The president’s office and said they needed a kazillion dollar bailout or it would be the mother of all global depressions.

And then goes on to blame Obama and the left and al gores ugly granny being in the pockets of those very bankers ....

And Frum sits there like a slack jawed doorman and says nothing about the hilarious irony that these new populist voters voted for a WALL STREET real estate tycoon whose first order of business was to give Wall Street bankers a PERMANENT tax cut...

So much for the progressive in Barbara Frum’s little boy...

Authentic Mexican food is heavy on the seafood. We, (airshow folks), used to cross into Mexico all along the regular US border cities
and pig-out. You had better be able to take it hot cause if your not use to it, your eyeballs be poppin.
Good though.

:mex:
Mexico has a wild variety of cuisines varying with it's regions. Oaxaca is widely regarded for having the best food. When i worked in Oaxaca, the Mexican geos from the north were fighting to be assigned to the project because of the great food. There was a huge impact on Mexican food when it was briefly a French colony. Cinco de Mayo celebrates the defeat of the French.
