and a frighteningly talented Big Three on their forward lines,

For slaves and the lower classes, it was essential for it’s nutrients.

I ran into this a couple times waiting breakfast tables at a fancy-ish hotel, kids would load up on pancakes and ask for maple syrup, and we had the real deal, that’s why our guests paid the big bucks to stay with us.  But sometimes the yoots would make a face and ask what was wrong with the syrup, and their parents…

I’m still not seeing an ‘f’, or any other letter, on Splinter.

Concrete, significant changes in your lifestyle can result in that kind of dramatic weight loss, even without the fancy daily one-on-one coaching. I remember reading a similar story about a morbidly obese man, whose doctor managed to get him to lose 100 lbs in a year or something like that, I forget the exact details.

Yep. If someone incompetently careens a bus into a ravine killing a bunch of passengers, we don’t shrug and accept he was a dumbass who couldn’t do better, we hold him responsible for not fulfilling his duties to a minimum standard.

Everyone else is doing a pretty good job of setting you straight, but I’ll bring this up: there is no ‘far-left’ in U.S. political discourse.

Two hundred years from now, when we’re reading the digital textbooks, there will be one line about how China took back the territory that was stolen from them by gunboats in the 1800s and had turned into a lawless cesspool of depravity when…

Yeah, no, sorry, I understand, we’d love to have you, thank you for your interest, but we’re full right now, we’re not taking anyone else aboard. Maybe next year we’ll have some attrition, we’ll need some new faces, but not right now.

For anyone who lived through the handover of Hong Kong the colony from Great Britain to mainland China in 1997, it’s almost impossible to be ignorant of those issues. Anyone who became aware of the world around them, who started ‘following the news’ after that, it would be easy to not know anything about the history…

With our ‘wisdom of the crowd’, we can nitpick each other back onto the right track.

You might have a point if the Pats winning percentage against all the other divisions wasn’t as equally dominant.
