  Is burying someone on a golf course tacky?

  trump's first wife and mother of his children died recently.

  they had her buried on his golf course.

  do you think this is tacky or a savvy business move since it'll now get them some tax breaks as a cemetery?.

  Does anyone out there have a mind like mine?

  Yes Donald. We know why😳*

  Beyond tacky.

  *And it's nothing to do with tax evasion🤭
  

  
  What do you think it has to do with?

  It us not like trump is doing something different than others

  Of course many people take advantage of these questionable loopholes. But Trump being Trump takes things to the next level. Like burying an ex wife on his golf course so he can call it a cemetery.

  tell me your alternate narrative.
  
  She stated in her will "I, Ivana Maria Trump, being of sound mind, declare it my wish that I be laid rest over where those shrubs are near the sand trap on hole 7 at my ex husbands golf course" ?
  
  No, I dont think it was left up to Donald. It was left up to the kids. Donald just pitched the idea and they went along, because, of course they did.

  "But every break counts, and the former president has previously designated the plot as a farm because some trees on the site are turned into mulch used for flower beds"

  is there any new music or singers whatsoever nowadays or just junk?

  and how about movies, besides documentaries is there anything at all, any movie at all, any new actor at all that that has any real worth to watch and enjoy or is it all a boring waste of time.

  Whatever happened to the big bands of yesteryear ? The likes of Glenn Miller , Tommy Dorsey ,Benny Goodman etc,etc.
  

  
  Well, Glenn Miller's plane was either shot down or crashed over the English Channel in WW2. Congrats on your upcoming 100th birthday, smiddy3. You should hit the town in your zoot suit for old times sake.

  TV and the Media

  i look at tv and the media as all fiction.. i wonder if the media is now just a tool to cauterise the brain and zombify us?

  i'm sure the uk's bbc does.

  it seems to be a tool to brainwash people to buy into latest agenda or trend that must be followed.....or you're an outcast like a disfellowshipped one.

  A guy got arrested for supplying drugs. They said the value was worth so many thousand £'s. If you knew the guy, you'd know he hadn't got access to that sort of money ever. Not to buy and not to sell. they said it's what the Police reported.
  

  
  LOL. "Cop Math".
  
  I purchase a new car for $35,000. 8 years later I sell it for $20,000. 5 years later that person sells it for $10,000 and 5 years after that the owner sells it for $6000. Had the car been seized for illegal activities at the beginning of the story, at the press conference, Cop Math would report the value of the vehicle as $71,000.

  I would hope that her family was doing this to respect her last wishes.

  I'm sure her last wishes were to be buried on her 35 years ago ex-husbands golf course.

  Given land and money a private cemetery is a good idea.
  
  Its not exactly a private cemetery. It's his golf club. I can picture some errant drive and the drunk companions excitedly debating whether its gonna hit Trumps golden mausoleum and obelisk.
  
  Also, aside from the potential tax break, being a cemetery will supposedly protect the golf course from being seized in case of bankruptcy. (which the majority of his ventures have had the tendency to fall into).

  Initially, Donald Trump's 2007 plans to build a 19 foot high mausoleum with four obelisks on his golf course in New Jersey where he planned to be interred. However, the plans were rejected by officials who called the design "garish" and "overwhelming".

  Well done England!

  in the women's euro tournament, england beat germany 2-1 at wembley!!!.

  i'll be honest - i've never really been that interested in women's football.

  no, it's not because i'm a sexist pig, it's just that i was brought up on men's football and haven't had a tv license for the past 10 years.. but this win could really put women's football on the map, at least in britain.. there has been a bit of hysteria about the nickname 'lionesses' but i think it's a great name.

  Pretty shitty deal we got in Britain, eh?

  
  

  No. BBC has some great programming.
  
  "The BBC's domestic television channels have no commercial advertising and collectively they accounted for more than 30% of all UK viewing in 2013. The services are funded by a television licence."
  
  I mostly use streaming services for TV, although I also have an antenna and occasionally watch over the air broadcast TV. It's free sorta. The price you pay is a an hours worth of TV is only about 38 mins. The other 22 mins is commercials for diarrhea pills, constipation pills, boner pills, even yet still more pharmaceutical ad's followed by a long list of side effects, car commercials, sour cream commercials, furniture store commercials, get out of debt commercials.......
