I don’t think you’re exactly wrong, here, but I do think the defense thing is a bit overrated. To wit: By DBPM, Isaiah Thomas is the worst defender among regular players in the entire NBA, takes a ton of shots at the other end, and doesn’t have a reputation as a selfish player. Why not? Who knows. Probably because…

The irony here is that when LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, and Chris Bosh took below-market deals to play together, they got pilloried for being ... selfish!

Selfish seems to come from the fact that Melo maxes out his contract instead of giving billionaires a price break on his own market worth. Apparently he should play for the love of it.

Trump is in whole different dimension, don’t try to sugarcoat the situation.

A far easier approach is to NOT COUNT unbelted fatalities as auto fatalities. Instead create a new “idiot” category for them. Lumping them in with belted occupants unfairly penalizes the auto industry and leads to idiotic things like automatic seat belts.

Yes and no. Whenever France want to drop some liberte on places like Libya, they don’t have the strategic bomb/missile reserves to maintain sustained operations. They have to “borrow” ours.

Trump is a blustering buffoon and his supporters believe anything he says no matter how stupid...do you think either of them actually care about the facts of a matter? Of course not! Facts get in the way of the sort of ham-fisted action that Trump and his supporters think makes everything better.

Here we see some Yugoslavian refugees at Jalopnik planning a possible attack.

OR... The mandatory 48 waiting period is a myth no police would even bother to try and trot out, no matter how lazy, and this random commenter on the internet was unaware of the fact when he made up that story.

This deserves so many more stars.

Yes, and tech companies trade on intellectual property. The reason their values are so insane is that their end product has extremely low COGS, so any sort of geometric sales growth goes directly to EBITDA. Additionally, the products sold by a tech company, at least the kind you’re thinking of, fall somewhere between…

Dammit Jim! Don’t you be bringing EBITDA multiples, Market value of assets, or leverage into an investment discussion! The Feels are for REELZ!

How old is your employee? The guy who’s gone missing in this story is in his mid-60s and if he has some health condition, he could be considered vulnerable. Also, this is rural South Carolina and there’s probably not much else to do — a missing person search makes a nice change of pace from pulling over speeders and…

I’m not saying she is lying, I’m just saying if the police actually told them that then that cop didn’t know what they were talking about and they may want to inquire/look into the regulation about that. I don’t know if it is the same in Canada but in the US if you have probable cause that a person is missing you can…

The mandatory 48 hours thing is a myth though so sounds like the police involved or whomever it was that they notified was too lazy to do their damn job.

But what they lack in razzle dazzle they make up for with good fundamentals!

This could have been her entire article.

Remind me again— did Robert Byrd run on being a race-baiting bigot in the last say 30 years of his life, because Donald Trump ran on that this year.
