Would that Trump still had the capacity to shock me. Pardoning Blagojevich and Milkin is like him realizing that if he can't pardon himself - Reagen Feb 18, 12:59 15
- I think this is all him still lashing out about impeachment. He no longer feels constrained at all (he won) and he wants to punish those who don't - pmb Feb 18, 13:30 5

  - Mojo was found to have crystals in his urine so the doc. prescribed a prescription diet. They free-feed so both have to eat it. -- nm - Meg Feb 18, 12:02 13
    - we feed special urinary tract food to ours to prevent this. soft and hard. -- nm - Beaker Feb 18, 12:05
    - Growing up, my pets were free feeders. Changed that when I met Amy. Two meals per day really is pretty easy and effective for cats and dogs. -- nm - Spawn Feb 18, 12:03 10
      - I'm a firm believer in 2/day. My dog - not so much - decline Feb 18, 12:06 9
        
        Ha!! " put food in my bowl immediately so I can ignore it" - Pippy - Bruge Groupie Feb 18, 12:33 3

        That works fine when you are the only dog! -- nm - Spawn Feb 18, 12:12 3
        
        Truth with 3 cats and 2 dogs there is no way to segregate feedings but we do portion control -- nm - SyrDragon Feb 18, 12:16 2
        
        Especially if they all don't eat the same way. Some graze and others will eat all of their food at once. - Krusty Feb 18, 12:46

  - "...it isn't even the same food he normally orders on the company amazon account for his dog..." -- nm - Spawn Feb 18, 11:48 3
    - Even better. Amazon told us to just keep it rather than send it back -- nm - oblique Feb 18, 11:52 2
      - If it is random dog food, now your company has to get a random dog -- nm - crash davis Feb 18, 11:54 1
        
        That was my suggestion. Office dog FTW -- nm - oblique Feb 18, 11:59

Huh. A condo tower, currently under construction, on NYC's Upper West Side may have to take off 20 floors. -- (link) - ty97 Feb 18, 11:15 17

- they are not going to allow real estate developers to combine (jerrymander) lots together? that will limit new buildings -- nm - zeitgeist Feb 18, 11:23 7
  - They can buy air rights from neighboring buildings but not in the way these developers did it. -- nm - Krusty Feb 18, 11:27 6
    - But it's pretty unconscionable to deny the plaintiff's injunctions and then get this result. I think there's very little likelihood it stands. - pmb Feb 18, 11:31 5
      - Yeah, I don't see them having to actually take off 20 floors. There will be another solution -- nm - Krusty Feb 18, 11:38 4
        
        Yeah, just to clarify legally, The basis for an injunction to have been issued would be that the plaintiffs have to show that monetary damages would - pmb Feb 18, 12:01
