I’d assume the 8-months thing is because many amusement parks are closed in the winter?

Downtown NYC. And even that is lie, 70 Pine (The Cities Service Building) surpassed Trump’s 40 Wall Street (Bank of Manhattan Trust Building) two years after it was completed (The Empire State Building and the Chrysler Building are of course both taller than either, but are in midtown)

It’s a little hard to say because sponsorships are paid to US Soccer, rather than to the men’s or women’s team, which leaves a huge murky chunk. There’s no question that the men’s World Cup is a much bigger chunk of money than the women’s $400M vs. $30M, but of course the men’s team choked so much they didn’t even…

They were thinking it was legal (it probably shouldn’t be), so they had no reason not to. And really if we want to cut down on gun violence, it’s better to be selling assault weapons than handguns (though of course we could have restrictions on both).

Southern and Eastern Europeans aren’t always white enough for some people. This was of course much more true in the past when they were the “immigrant hordes” overwhelming the country.

Does the play by play use the custom player name (either for this, or for franchise-mode players)?

If they can hide that money, they can hide income from that money, and they are already cheating the system. Better to make sure we can track it regardless of how you tax it.

I’m available as well. My Spanish sucks, but as long as I can conduct all business over text-based mediums I should be ok.

Most people receiving government assistance are getting less than $12,000, so they’d still be coming out ahead. And they wouldn’t be kicked off assistance just because they got a crappy, low-paying job. 

Note than when I search on Google, this story is the only one on the first page that references this Michael Bennet (though his campaign did take out an Ad). The Wikipedia disambiguation page that shows up on the search results lists three Michael Bennets, none of whom are this guy. 

Shit, I forgot about his book! Bought’d!

I’m eager! Though I’m pretty sure you still owe us the Dymaxion car video you promised us ages ago?

As long as neither is doing it Maddux style, I think it’s ok.

So why don’t we use gasoline to power guns?

To really get moving, you need to power your car with something with a better power-to-weight ratio. While something like the uranium out of a breeder reactor, with a specific energy of 80,620,000 megajoules per kilogram, would surely get you going in a hurry

Insurance won’t be obsolete.

Well, he does have a rich dad. Of course his dad got rich suing people over asbestos and tobacco, and has always seen himself as a champion of blue-collar Baltimore.

Officials recalibrated the strike zone this week to award a strike only when the entire ball is inside the upper boundary of the hitting area, not just a portion of it.

The Ironbirds are owned by Cal (I’m sad that he might support this).
