If the 99% weren't such idiots the 1% sure would be fucked. If 99%ers didn't spend their money on dumb shit like sports merchandise those athletes would be just grown men playing children's games.

Playmobil toys encourage story telling play. Lego toys are primarily a building toy but clearly can be used for story telling play as well, you just need to build stuff first. As you say. apples and oranges. Personally I loved them both as a kid, but these days only Lego is considered cool so I don't talk about my…

In the process he may also have produced the first unified version of the German language from the various dialects of German spoken at the time. While editing he chose which word from which dialect to use for a book that was to be widely read.

Sort of the mirror image of my diet. I'll eat vegetables if meat is in short supply.

Yes, but they should use other people's money. I should never have to pay for the maintenance of roads and bridges that I as a driver use. Get the money from someone else.

For all the brutish dumb stuff we've seen done by our military it's heartening to be reminded that the best products of our military are thinking soldiers. The men sitting in those mountain villages and assessing the conflict from a wider perspective is an inspiring example. Mind you, Rangers are not your typical…

I vote Gleep.

Damn! Really? I need to get a union too then!

I am a doctor educated by the School of Common Sense and the University of What Is Wrong With You. Let me help you see the light.

What would you hide behind in a gunfight? Huh? HUH? Gotcha!

It's a shame that Israel is so focused on messing with Iran. They'd make a great tag team partner for Jordan.

There's things that you can do as King of a small country that you can't do as President of a global power. There are things you have to do to stay King.

The Kurds have a narrow interest. They want their own government in their own part of what is now Iraq. Ultimately that goal faces strong resistance from neighboring powers and Iraq itself. If they get sold out (in their view) when this is over and end up being pushed back into some other state there will be a…

Speaking of not finishing the job. It seems likely that this is not just about the not finishing but the inept execution of the last war.

I believe that during WWII the procurement process and selection competitions were geared to maximizing production but also keeping a variety of available competing manufacturers in business (which further ensured production capability.)

Definitely a shrinking market. Companies are cutting and shifting costs onto employees where they can. Blackberries are being phased out and employees are asked to use their personal phones with a company app.

I read somewhere that the Golf's are still assembled in Germany (lower volume of sales in US market) whereas the other VW's are assembled in Mexico? Anyone know if this is true?

What if I don't sell the gun itself but rent the time on the printer to an individual to allow them to make the gun? I'm not the manufacturer if I didn't click print? I didn't sell a gun, I sold 3D printing rental service.

The accent just screams evil scientist too. Dr. Strangelove eat your heart out.
