Default Met Joecoool in the Keys today.
Had a great chat with Phil. He gave my wife and I a tour of his island on his baller golf cart. Even bought us dinner. Great guy ! Sends his regards- except to that one guy.

Phil seems like a good guy. I'm sure we would get along well if we didn't discuss politics

As a machinist who is currently working on a .gov part, I can fully agree with being a total waste of time. It's a simple part that takes four minutes to machine but an additional 7 minutes to fill out the inspection report for each piece

Pol Pot was regarded as a "nice guy" by the folks that met him in person.

He's still a country-destroying son of a bitch.

His lack of ability to see both sides of a discussion, especially in regards to politics.

Other than that I have had many a great conversation with him in the past.

He can see it, he just didn't agree and wasn't afraid to swim against the never ending tide. For some reason that annoyed a few people.

Unfortunately I saw more than a couple of instances where he was given irrefutable facts against his opinion and he still argued. No I am not talking about "facts" from places like the enquirer either

They're both country-destroying sons-a-bitches.













An ocean and a lake can be compared. They're both made out of the same stuff.
