No, they weren’t, not by 19th century standards. The WASP ancestors of today’s Fox News viewers were horrified by all the Irish and Italians “flooding” into the country. They were swarthy. They didn’t speak English! THEY WERE PAPISTS! Back then, Irish and Italians were not considered “white,” and they were considered…

The people at the time didn’t think so. A lot of ink was spilled over Italians, Germans, Irish and worst of all, the “Orientals” *gasp*.

Thank you! Everyone I work with is chanting the “Amazon Killed “Em!” mantra. For a week now I’ve been trying to tell them it wasn’t Amazon (though they probably didn’t do TRU any favors), but their ill-advised leveraged buyout that did them in. Few companies could survive with billions in debt.

When you sale “The sale starts tomorrow”, you mean “The liquidators jack up the prices 150% and discount the stock by 75%” right.

Let’s be clear: Toys R’ Us was having a hard time in the new marketplace, but it was first and foremost a victim of a massive debt load incurred by the company’s leveraged buyout by the current owners. Yay our system!

I’m a little concerned that when American sends its people, it’s not sending its best.

In this photo she looks terrifyingly exactly like the lady working at Niemann Marcus who used to quietly follow teenaged me around the jewelry counter lest I steal something. Exactly, overdone makeup and all.

Sorry, Melania’s face is priceless.

If you know anything about American history, you know that Prohibition is a cure-all.

FWIW, these statutes are almost certainly unconstitutional. I looked into this when Trump first started talking about it. There’s a “drug kingpin” statute which carries the death penalty, but as far as I could tell it has literally never been used in court before, which means that no court has had the opportunity to…

It had been the previous coach’s custom to allow players to skip practices when they had exams coming up. “Between players having jobs as pharmacy techs and needing to finish school assignments, only three guys would show up.”

I heard the kid just got drafted first overall by the Washington Generals.

The Al Capone vault was emptied by deep state operatives to prevent Americans from finding out about the Chicago mob’s ties to the Hillary Clinton presidential campaign thirty years later and to attempt to discredit Geraldo Rivera as the hard-hitting, take no prisoners, truth reporting “journalist” he regards himself…

So glad to see that whole Al Capone’s vault debacle didn’t dissuade Geraldo from embarrassing himself on national on a regular basis.

First off,

They build snow tires that way because some of the softer compounds (such as Blizzaks) are simply too soft to be used to construct the entire tire. Worn snows aren’t as good as fresh snows but the tread shape still gives them a noticeable advantage in the snow over all seasons.

no drugs, no sex welcome to San Angeles, can’t wait for Cryo-Penitentiary to open up.

Fleet people also swear by them because they have a shit-ton of locations which is pretty bloody important if you’re managing a geographically distributed fleet.

But do you use them to block the curbs at the ends of your driveway so plebs cannot park to close and block you in?

As a professional scientician, I can say that her gloves are at least one size too large. You can’t get a good grip on things when they are that loose.
