Let me get this straight. Everyone is cycling is using PEDs. Many, perhaps most have been caught. None of those who got caught came forward to admit using PEDs, they just got caught. In your mind Lance Armstrong is worse because he did exactly what everyone else did and tried to hide his PED use? How is that

That's parsing it pretty fine. Everyone is doing it but Lance does it better so it's worse?

Nice pull.

Cycling is as corrupt a sport as there is. The notion that Lance Armstrong was cheating is laughable. Cheating is using unfair means to gain an advantage. Everyone, and in this case everyone really does mean everyone, in cycling takes PEDs. If everyone is doing it you don't have an unfair advantage. Against the

I found this out in season two of Mad Men.

Maybe. All I know is they all look alike, men and women, and it is as obvious as a toupee.

I live in southern california. When my wife and I go to some of the areas (most notably La Jolla and Del Mar) around here with a lot of wealthy older people we see this, we call it plastic face. We're amazed that they think it makes them look better. What's so weird to us is that they all look the same. I feel

I took a second look at the photo and burst out laughing.

The Marine Corps sought female volunteers for the course as part of a broader research effort to assess how female Marines might perform in assignments whose primary mission is direct ground combat — jobs they are prohibited from filling now. Only these two women stepped forward.

As a former Marine the only objection I have is that the standards are not the same for men and women. Women have a decidedly easier fitness requirement, for example.

"... accusations have been flying over who is to blame, since nothing fuels reactionary American political campaigns like the blood of white people killed by brown non-Christians." What a fucking stupid comment. This has everything to do with politics and policy and more importantly that four of our finest

Dear Leader?

Of course as a new lawyer you also know that if abortion is found unconstitutional the states are free to craft their own abortion rights laws.

There's a jackass in my neighborhood with one of these too. How can you take a grown man who drives one of these serious?

That is not correct. The flagstick may be attended, removed or held up before making a stroke from anywhere on the course (Rule 17-1). If your ball is on the putting green you should always ask for the flagstick to be attended however, because if your ball hits the flagstick you incur the general penalty (Rule 17-3).

I am a lawyer and can say that in my seven-years as a lawyer have met very few lawyers that love their work. The vast majority of them are good at their jobs, indeed their talents are particularly attuned to those of a lawyer, alas it is a horrible profession, full of people who more often than not dislike their jobs

There's a doctor in Texas that can fix that cow. Why this doctor once fixed a cowboy who'd been hit by a train. All that was left of the poor cowboy was a hat and an asshole and he went onto become President.
