Her place is to make me a sandwich.

I prefer to look at it as a price to time-carrying-weight-on-back ratio. If you only hike a couple times a year, then go for it. But if you’re carrying a tent every other weekend, then it’s worth the extra couple hundred to shave off that extra weight.

Well ya, they have to do SOMETHING during their downtime when they’re not diddling. 

I knew exactly what you meant! I think people are just searching for an argument.

Well it is a Ford Fusion. Even down to the chrome window trim and stock rims:

I’m a lover too. Bend over. 

What does 1/3 equal? What is the total energy and effort they currently use? How do you directly take from policing to figuring out ways to apply proper procedure? Why would it take a couple months time? Is that 60 days exactly, or more/less? How are you coming to these calculations? Why are you focusing on the…
