About his qualifications:

The former Texas governor sits on two corporate boards - one of them is Energy Transfer Partners - and that may present a confirmation issue. Energy Transfer Partners has a subsidiary known as Dakota Access LLC, which is attempting to build the Dakota Access Pipeline.


As opposed to the current guy:

Ernest Moniz, a former professor at MIT, “served as Head of the Department of Physics and as Director of the Bates Linear Accelerator Center. His principal research contributions have been in theoretical nuclear physics and in energy technology and policy studies.”

Close enough :noidea:

Trumpelstiltskin is trying so hard to prove to the rubes that voted for him that he's not part of the establishment, but the only way he knows to go about it is to nominate literally the worst person for each post. Starting with Vice President.


If there was a department of the henhosue, he'd nominate the fox.

Things Alex Jones believes:
The DNC runs a child sex ring from a pizza parlor in DC
Obama is a Kenyan Muslim
Hillary is a Demon
9/11 was an inside job
Sandy Hook was faked
Chemtrails
FEMA Camps
Globalists are communicating with "Clockwork Elves" in space preparing to open the StarGate and commit genocide

Things Alex Jones doesn't believe:
That Russia, who says they hacked emails, hacked emails




You probably think I am joking about the Clockwork Elves.

I'm surprised he was able to get moving fast enough to make it through the guard rail.
Assuming both vehicles were going 90-100 km/h (wouldn't shock me if the dump was going faster, especially if it wasn't carrying a load), and the lane change had enough "jerk" to it, I could see it.

I don't think I've ever been in a car that managed to get above about 50 km/h on the elevated portion because of all the damned traffic.

The area where the crash happened was towards the end of the elevated portion approaching Dufferin, headed westbound. At 7 am it's usually pretty fluid, another 30 minutes or so though and you're screwed.

I usually get up to around 80 in the afternoon on that same section; it moves pretty well after the cars getting on at Spadina merge since there's no other on-ramp after that until Humber Bay (Jameson on-ramp closes between 2-6). Ditto for eastbound - once you pass Dufferin it's rare to find much congestion.

I bought a few shares about 5-6 years ago, more for fun than anything.

Wishing now that I had taken out a second mortgage to buy more.

i think theres still room for profit there .... maybe they split too ... like ive heard it said before ... google is an engineerng company first and foremost, marketing second ... apple is the reverse lol
