Just a note as a former boater. You were always cautioned to be careful when calling for a tow or assistance getting off a sand bar if grounded. Depending on circumstances, the assisting vessel could claim salvage rights and basically charge you the market price of your boat to get it back. Maritime law is weird and…

Although I agree with your sentiments, open and maintained sea lanes are a benefit to society as a whole. This is why we use tax dollars to dredge channels to maintain navigation. American workers can’t sell their manufactured goods abroad without shipping. As such we, as a whole, have skin in the game and should pony…

A few stations have the smaller add-on washes. They seem pretty self-sufficient. The larger washes have teams of low paid workers doing the final wipe-downs of multiple cars at a time, protectant applications, etc. Even if many workers are not completely legit, finding, managing, and paying these folks makes this type…

False equivelencies. A lot of normal people travel more than celebrities. Those careers are not being cancelled or put on the chopping block. If your career/lifestyle does not require travel, don’t compare your CO2 emissions to theirs.
The “self annoited” betters are either elected officials or representatives…

Well, he is right. The break down of chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) that are released at ground surface are the typical ozone depleting compounds. Basically, burning Jet 1A (kersoene) gives you CO2 and water. Sure, green house gases, but not ozone depleting compounds.

And then said red states (with red legislatures and governors to make this happen) get to see how few voters that they actually have and Biden gets an even larger win.

If someone looks at the fine print, this is pretty common. Although the cruise is to <location>, all they will really guarantee is that the boat will leave harbor and go somewhere. As noted, sailing into a storm is hardly the way people would want to spend time at sea, better to go to another location than be sea sick…

Trick slides; they’re ALL bad. Except for maybe a few traditional songs around the week of Christmas, they could all be put into an industrial furnace and the world would be better for it.

Only quibble with the Uncharted series is how he/they can mow down a damn near army of opponents and then banter like they’re cooking burgers on the back porch in summer time. I could never grok to them as feel-good every guys/gal characters. They’re completely remorseless killers. Fun games, but still.....

I’m no tax prof and IANAL, but as a lay man, shelving a finished film before realizing any losses in the market place does not seem alike a viable basis for claiming such on tax filings. Why should the US tax payer be giving WB ANYTHING for choosing to fund a film and not release it due to not wanting to pay marketing…

Hell, they’ll do worse than that. There was a story here a (few?) years back where the person’s insurance provider paid for legal fees for the OTHER SIDE’s lawsuit against their own customer. If the other side won, the carrier would owe nothing to their client. As stated in the story, this wasn’t a one-off apparition…

Had a co-worker who’s relations were in drug interdiction. She said they would cruise areas of I-95 looking for cars with the ‘squat’, suggesting drug muling. Profile the driver, then pull them over and take a look. Wonder if the fashion was making their lives more difficult.

Hearing that she breathes through her skin skeeves me out so much that her outfits don’t really make up for it. Gross. Yeah, fish gills and alveoli, that’s the stuff ...

Seems like the real story is that these two think that they, by virtue of their noteriety? name recognition? have the chops to reach an audience in an already hyper oversaturated podcast market place. Personally, I don’t see it. But I don’t travel in circles who follow celebrities lives either. -shrug-

Heck, a night out with the guys or even an above average date can land you north of $200 for one evening’s entertainment.

Any list of shoddy pilots that doesn’t include B-52 pilot Lt Col Arthur “Bud” Holland near the top is woefully incomplete. No old & bold pilots and all that......

Based on that picture, dude’s in either very good or very bad shape.  i can’t tell which.

Someone has never seen pictures of Beijing, or hell Paris, on a commonly bad day.
