    The Random Crap Thread 2: It Hits the Fan.

    With the push towards Chromebooks and tablets in classes, kids aren't even using fully capable PCs. I think a lot of schools don't even have typing classes anymore.

    Gas Bandit's Political Thread V: The Vampire Likes Bats

    Yeah, he still told ALL of the lies, but he didn't start rambling about sharks, or electricity, or low-flow toilets, or windmills, or any of the other really bizarre stuff he fixates on. Apparently his team kept him away from whatever nose-candy usually causes his intrusive thoughts to win out.

    Gas Bandit's Political Thread V: The Vampire Likes Bats

    It is, but I'm surprised that Trump is going ahead with it, as often as he's devolved into gibberish lately. EDIT: Trump seems remarkably focused, compared to most of his other public appearances. I guess they got the balance of his drugs right.
