Our laws, perhaps based on tradition, allow restaurants to pay servers lower than the minimum wage on the assumption that the difference is made up through tips. If customers don't tip, servers aren't making fair pay.

They (or at least the bussers) are usually clearing your plates, too. In a way, they may be doing more work than a sit-down restaurant.

Seems legit. This dad is a scumbag!!!

You are correct. I assumed that you were assuming the allegations are true, and you were commenting on that extortion as being politics. Now I understand that your claim of "politics" is referring to the jockeying by the lawyer-dad and the coach.

How do you know?

Perhaps the truth in this will come out, though this headline is typical Deadspin click-bait.

Politics involves extorting money from players in exchange for playing time? That's not just politics, that's wrong.

GTI. It has 4 doors for easily putting the baby in the back seat, a hatch for storing strollers and other baby things, and German quality for safety. It also has a manual transmission and hoonability for you.

Is it even possible to replace OEM head units anymore? Wasn't that a fad of the 90s that ended when OEMs using DIN ended?

How does one get through 9 minutes of The Fast and the Furious sins without mentioning the 7-speed transmission in the Eclipse?

Really? For whatever reason they give us a few less horsies and you give up on the entire company? Harsh, man.

This is an interesting maneuver by the media. "We don't want to discuss a gay player in sports, because then we're making a big deal of it. Instead, let's make a big deal about NOT talking about it. Then we can still make a big deal about it without it seeming like we're making a big deal about it."

Barry, I totally disagree with you on this, though I may be an Olympic traditionalist. I'm not one of the 3 followers of bobsledding in the US (and those 3 are only fans because they love Cool Runnings), but I'm going to guess the Olympics is one of their premier events. And the goal of the Olympics, or any…

SAE net is still measured at the crank, without remaining (e.g., transmission) powertrain loss. However, one of the main differences is that all belt-driven accessories must be attached.

That was my first thought. Not a good thought, either.

You are exactly right. Someone ASKED for his opinion on Collins Christianity and he gave it. And, going into semantics, he was merely giving an opinion in the context of Christianity. It was dumb for ESPN to ask him the question, but he should not be punished for his religious beliefs.

I was going to post this, but you beat me to it. Many forum-goers refuse to give up the location of the "secret compartment" just to maintain its mythology.

Kill the roadster, too? I'm almost with you: Hardtop, Cabrio, and Countryman. I don't think they need a Clubman with the Countryman.

We haven't seen all that WP8 has to offer; only the developer-facing features. I'm also on the Sprint bus, and it doesn't look optimistic for any WP8 devices this fall.
