You also need to calculate how much money you’ll waste paying interest over the life of the mortgage. This depends greatly on the interest rate you can get, the lower the rate, the less savings you’ll get.

“...than the perceived-standard 20 percent.” It’s not perceived; you put 20% down to avoid paying private mortgage insurance (PMI). You are literally throwing money away if you cannot get to that “perceived-standard” of 20%.

Tried Googling to remind me of important revelations the New York Times had uncovered, but agreed to “sit on” the stories after their DC sources applied pressure.

The same way “Internet tough guy” is an insult: It’s sarcastic. It was traditionally used to describe people whose “social justice activism” is limited entirely to sitting on Twitter telling people to kill themselves, but the usage has devolved significantly.

Why are you posting here instead of marching down the streets or breaking into ICE or something? Why are you going to your job while immigrant children sit in concentration camps?

They just overcook it.  Apparently everyone does.  White meat is not dry or tasteless.

Well he was a lifetime .342 hitter, so he didn’t just hit fly balls.

LOL. Babe Ruth was a straight up monster. Bad ass pitcher turned bad ass hitter. He would tear up the league in any era,integrated or not.

Lifeless in Seattle

The little-seen 30-second sequel, While You Were Falling.

When considering your opinion of the correct interpretation of the laws or what you think the laws should be, remember that you can’t have one set of rules for your nation and another set of rules for everyone else.

The magformers, which I mentioned in my other comment, seem to have stronger magnets in them. They are awesome and I think I have just as much fun with them as my daughter.

As someone who will often go in his daughters room when she is not around and play with her Magformers, I recommend them over Magna-Tiles. I can’t put a finger on what really makes them better but we have played with both and the Magformers are awesome enough to make me want to buy her more so I can play with them…

My daughter loved magnatiles when she was small (still likes them from time to time). These were great in encouraging here to think in terms of 3 dimensional space early on. We had some at home, and when she’d get to playing with them sometimes, I’d get on the floor and play alongside. She’d see some of the things I…

Why buy a 9 year old Mercedes with 140,000 miles when you could literally do anything else with $7500 and probably come out further ahead?

Ajvar, a Serbian red pepper spread that was supposedly created as a substitute for caviar.

I heard somewhere that 0% of people that survived something died from it.
