I believe that most priests/pastors/imams/rabbis/etc. are fully cognizant that they are peddling nonsense. But it pays the bills, so why stop now?

At the place and time where I was house hunting, homes were getting snatched up almost immediately after being listed. It was crazy. After having several great houses sold before we could even make an offer, we and our agent were determined not to let it happen again. We looked at a house the day it listed, bid on it…

Yeah, my loan was sold to a bank that I despise. Great, now I’m stuck in a 30-year relationship with Welsh Fartgo! Just what I always wanted.

My estimated down payment, according the mortgage company, was something like 5 times more than what I actually paid, so they get it wrong both ways. I had gone through the trouble of pulling money out of a 401(k), and it turned out I had plenty of money in the bank. I was pissssssed.

No matter how you slice it, you’re putting a significant percentage of your future wellbeing in someone else’s hands. There’s no way to feel good about that.

You’re totally right. As much as I enjoy my house, my fiscal situation would be so much better if I’d continued to rent.

I’m all for it. Better that than any Andy Dalton vs. Joe Flacco matchup.

We had a serious blizzard in Chicago a couple years ago. People were abandoning vehicles on Lake Shore Drive. I couldn’t get to work for days. It was a nightmare.

I think the Expos, or the St. Louis Browns.

If every woman on earth gained the power to read the mind of any man, whenever she desired, how long would it take until humanity went extinct?

When I started my working life and still lived at home, I would’ve despised anyone who made me deliver food in bad weather, no matter how much they tipped. I didn’t need the money that much.

He’s still funny. Hope he starts posting more at the new site.

Check it out!

You did something there, and I saw it.

I don’t envy the choices you’re facing. I can only hope that you’re in a position where you do get to make the best choice for your life and future.

Those morons see any outcome as an affirmation of their point of view.

Amazingly, the CBA (minor league basketball) years ago actually had something like this. I believe you accumulated points in the standings based on how many quarters you led, in addition to ultimately winning the game. It was an effort to keep teams playing hard throughout the game. I don’t recall if it was…

This is all so needlessly convoluted. The whole point of the Chase is to avoid the scenario where someone has clinched a championship with many races still left in the season, right?

Wouldn’t you like to know?

You’re seeing the journalism process play out in real-time, publicly. This used to happen behind closed doors, and if, after hours or days of digging, there was no story, then nothing got published.
