As someone who grew up in both the mountains of Montana and the deserts of the west (Utah, Nevada, Colorado, Arizona), it is not uncommon. In Montana my dad always had a Dan Wesson .357 magnum for mountain lions, moose protecting calves or grizzlies (although although charging mothers would be hard to deter unless…

Actually, it’s cuckqueen porn (Twitter is the new Coursera!). I’d provide a link to corroborate, but I ain’t doin’ that from work.

Joe Walsh’s tweet yesterday that Charlie Hebdo is soft on Islam takes the cake for worst tweet. That he then doubled down on that counterfactual observation was merely the cherry on top. He should be studied.

I wish I hadn’t.

This is “begging the question”, but I get your point.

Thanks for this summary. I spent some of my youth in Utah, so I got into climbing. Nothing solo, but I was a decent climber (5.12s) for that time and my age. I stopped climbing in college, but after living my entire adult life in Spain, I still have my shoes, nuts and cams just in case my little daughter decides to…

His poor, poor mother.

I’m a season ticketholder (socio abonado) of Real Madrid. My wife’s grandfather was like socio 1,456 or the club. My wife just got back from Cardiff last night with her father (I had to bite the bullet and stay home with my little girl). I’ve lived in Madrid 15 years, and also lived in Barcelona. I don’t know anyone…

It’s not egregious, but they write for a living. I don’t hold laypersons to the same standard.

I work in a law firm and as a foreign legal consultant, much of the work comes through me. I easily get 180 to 250 emails a day. It’s nuts.

I deleted or refiled (but mostly deleted) 26,345 e-mails last week. It was intense.

“The tweet does not represent what we believe or what we stand for.” “The tweet neither represents what we believe nor stand for.” The tweet does not represent what we believe, nor does it represent what we stand for.” All three of these are correct; using “nor” as initially drafted was incorrect. Sorry, but it’s true.

Don’t worry —the editors at his former employer don’t know how to use “nor” correctly.

That would involve Billy acknowledging that Barça didn’t win La Liga, which is anathema to his dog-and-pony show of a column. Hey Billy, want me to send you a postcard from Cardiff? Sorry if this is a little mean, but I just get so intellectually tired of his inability to even pretend to be objective about football.…

Lol.

Actually meant Zahav!

To go zahatar in Philly.

I like the name but, just because it’s valued around 900M doesn’t meant it wouldn’t be worth more had they chosen a different name. I agree with you though, but I’m just saying Jack-in-the-Box would probably be worth more if it didn’t have a stupid name. And yet it’s value is very significant.

This thread has rennet’s course.

And don’t forget just straight up graft and influence peddling! I’m American and it’s fairly shocking how overt it can be in the bottom of the table. That said, I have to deal with Florentino’s shenanigans, or those of his lawyers and directors, in my professional life; my love for Los Blancos is tinged with…
