We should remind ourselves just how crazy 200-plus horsepower in a motorcycle really is.  

He’s sanctioned, but that’s not the same thing as being a wanted criminal. If a private plane with him on board arrived in Antigua, he might not be allowed to enter the country, but that doesn’t mean he would be subject to arrest.

The pedibikes are tourist transport, like a horse-drawn carriage ride (at least in the US cities where I’ve seen them), not actually a way to get from A to B. 

Agreed. Same reaction (on a somewhat different scale) I had to someone buying a nearly-complete T-rex skeleton last year for $30 million. Given other things people have spent that kind of money on, that makes a lot of sense to me. 

I miss the R-series. Hands down, the best livery service car around. Height-wise, SUVs are too high, most sedans are a bit lower than ideal, it was perfect. Also, it had regular doors, so no need to slide open a big minivan door.

Tony had an Escalade then, and he’s even more likely to have one now.  

Does anything have a before and after shot here, so we can see how much this changes the image?

Part of me says “good, I’m glad the guy won.” Part of me says “Nissan Maxima? OK, tell us what really happened.”

Well, sure. US foreign policy post-WWII was clearly just as bad as Nazi Germany, and US foreign policy post the fall of the Soviet Union was just as bad as Soviet Russia, and the US government after the Civil War was just as bad as the Confederacy.  /s

A military force gets built up to defeat a terrible fascist enemy, and the very second it becomes convenient, they became just as evil as the villains they won a war against. See also: the victor of every war ever, in real life and in fiction.

Am I correct in understanding that the referendum’s proposal essentially boils down to “Wellesley will accept applications from anybody but cis men”?

A large portion of those Ticketmaster fees flow to the venue and the band. Part of Ticketmaster’s business model is being the “bad guy,” allowing acts to effectively charge more for tickets while having someone else to blame for the prices.  

Huh?

Disco Stu has joined the chat. 

What if someone...likes them, and wants to collect them on that basis?

Companies do pay for dumping. 

If anyone believes their genuinely final tour will have nine shows in Canada (including Saskatoon!), but skip San Francisco and the entire states of Texas and Florida, I’ve got a great bridge to sell you.

So, basically, a new bike to fit into the Super Cub “you meet the nicest people on a Honda” niche?

While this is a bit longer than usual, this introductory disclosure (typically called a Sarbox intro) is incredibly standard for any investor event.
