We are definitely speaking of the same Sand Alderson...
Of course I’m aware of that. :)
As of 2012, people are distributed by age as follows:
Ugh, I wish that were exit polls. When I see totals like 130 million total ballots for president, I don’t know what to think. It’s good that a few million more people voted this time than last time, but still, in a nation of 330 million, we had, what, 50% turnout to vote for president? Ugh!
That order-online-and-pick-up model is kind of interesting to me. There used to be a chain of stores called Service Merchandise where you’d walk through a showroom of pretty regular stuff and make purchases through salespeople who presumably made a commission on selling products to you. They’d ring everything up and…
Link, please! I hope that’s actually accurate.
Yeah, this is similar to arguments where if you chastise one side, everyone just assumes you’re in the tank for the other side. Like, it’s possible for everyone in an argument to be wrong, just like it’s possible to be angered by Trump selecting Price for HHS Secretary and also by the flag comments. I can be mad at…
God, I wish those modems were 300 kilobits. They were 300 bits per second. Can’t even download pictures with that. I remember setting up some terminal program to download a file with Y-modem or Z-Modem protocol and having to come back like a half a damn hour later to see that Aerosmith album cover.
John Waters had this one right the other night when he said, “I hate people that say, ‘I’m leaving the country’, go ahead, no one cares!”
Why would you ignore the extra couple of million people, though? What’s the rhetorical strategy, here?
Is the second amendment as important to you as the first? I think maybe #1 should be more important than #2. You’ll never successfully rebel against the government with handguns and semi auto rifles, but you can make a difference by speaking out and transacting business.
Definitely is not. You can cruise from the city to Palo Alto in like 45 seconds on an empty road. I wish they had done more of the pretty parts of 280, too. Tons of good scenery on that route!
Doesn’t really include any of Santa Clara and San Jose, and I don’t think you can get around the south edge of the bay to Fremont and Heyward and stuff in the east bay. I think the San Mateo bridge is in there, but Dumbarton isn’t.
I’m always annoyed at how little traffic there is in these game worlds. I know that for gameplay, players need to be able to jump in a car and zip around, but real cities have tons and tons of cars and active traffic, so it feels like a small town the way it’s so quiet in so many places. There were so many times I saw…
... ... “help computa”
Ya kinda just have to walk away. I generally like the sport of football, but I’ve never been a die hard fan of any team, so it’s easier for me than some others, but I basically decided I wasn’t going to pay any attention to it until the sport made significant changes to avoid these injuries. I’m doing good this year.…
If Reddick can hit 20 homers in Oakland (not bothering to look that up), he can hit at least 30 in Baltimore, in that park.
The second way. The pitcher (bowler) stays on the same side and pitches to whichever of the partnership is batting from the opposite side at the moment. Every 6 pitches is called an “over”, and they switch bowling ends for each over. So after the set of 6 pitches, the pitcher and catcher switch sides, but I don’t…
