Mr. McClarey,
Just FYI, there have been inappropriate ads showing up on TAC over the past few days.
Yeah, I’ve noticed that also. I will look into it. Our ads are supposed to be as anodyne as possible.

…. my brain instantly said “Accio picture!”
I think I’m both old, and a geek. I didn’t even LIKE that story that much!
H. L. Mencken “You get the government you deserve – good and hard.”

More mourning and weeping is likely to come to this vale of tears.
I apologize in advance.
I’m fairly certain [The Warden’s brother-in-law also suffers from dementia] that Fraudulent Xiden doesn’t know what day it is. Ergo, I blame his CCP, and other assorted, handlers.
Seneca, “Successful and fortunate crime is called ‘virtue.'”
The full quote from Lucius Annaeus Seneca Maior in his Hercules Furens, Lines 251-253. Lord, may this be right on this cell phone keyboard.
Rursus prosperum ac felix scelus virtus vocatur; sontibus parent boni, ius est in armis, opprimit leges timor.
Again [on the contrary] prosperous [successful] and happy [blessed, lucky] crime [wickedness, sin, calamity] is called virtue [strength, courage, manliness]; the good [honest, brave, noble] obey [are subject to, submit to] the guilty [criminal], right [duty, justice] is in arms [weapons], fear [dread] oppresses [suppresses, crushes, overwhelms] laws [statutes, principles].
