Only 11,000 degrees F on the surface.

Yet so massive that hold up your hand on a sunny day, and you can feel it from here.

donald said...: Hill’s Husband was unemployed and no prize. I’m sure she was ready to move on up without him or Morgan Dejarsdin who was decidedly average in her own right. She played the abuse card whenall this became public because she’s a POS.; 10/27/19, 8:00 PM

From your link,

Baghdadi would sometimes hold strategy talks with his commanders in moving minibuses packed with vegetables in order to avoid detection, Ismael al-Ethawi told officials after he was arrested by Turkish authorities and handed to the Iraqis.

So he just fell off the turnip truck?

And, from your

effinayright said...: Althouse, you are LYING about the federal case that---according to you---allows the Dems to conduct their impeachment inquiry in secret.

The holding in that case is only to allow the Dems access to grand jury materials from the Mueller report.

What say you, Empress of All Legal Matters???; 10/27/19, 8:36 PM
n.n said...: The sun sets on planned terrorism in the Middle East. Baghdadi will no longer have the choice to decapitate and dismember lives he deems unworthy of life. And the rest of the parties, they can persist in their wicked solutions, or reconcile their differences and give peace a chance.; 10/27/19, 9:00 PM

Ann Althouse said...: @Michael K

I am not moderating through your repetitive comments guessing that Blogger is malfunctioning. No one else is saying this nor am I seeing a problem. You have made your point that something is bothering you, but the repetition doesn't make for good reading. Think of the reader!; 10/28/19, 5:29 AM
Original Mike said...: I commented two times yesterday and both times took multiple attempts. I didn't mention it, because what's the point?, but Blogger has been flakey lately.; 10/28/19, 8:12 AM
Nichevo said...: Third that blogger has been kicking back errors. I believe yesterday I had to retry maybe five times on one post, and a couple of times on several other posts yesterday and today. And as you as a one-time teacher ought to know very well, if one classroom participant has a question, and asks it, 25 other people have the same question but aren't asking it. It's fine if you can't do anything, but if there's any point in you being aware of it, be aware.; 10/29/19, 9:44 AM
