"Can go to Belgium somewhere."

And the good news is that if you never replace it the car will still run exactly the same.

I'm extremely disappointed that he did this.

When you are in a place where wages are extremely low by default, a strong union is a huge help for getting better pay and better benefits. Learned that at Disney, easiest $6 a week I ever spent.

It WAS showing things down because workers weren't working beyond their minimum requirements without a contract. Then they went on strike over the weekend.

Elderly people are an extremely powerful voting block who vote in far greater numbers than younger voters. That means that local politicians from all parties need their support desperately and are very hesitant to do anything that places them in opposition. Elderly drivers may even agree with the general idea, but…

Anonymous tipoffs are used regularly. When there is a direct threat of violence, police don't have the necessary info to determine if the person is armed or might be bluffing or might be set up. The only safe response left for the first responders safety is to assume the worst, but make an effort to intervene…

Not sure what fantasy series you are reading where children are responsible about such things. It's rather the antithesis of childhood.

His kids are allowed to play video games pretty regular, according to the strip and the blog posts.

You'd be pretty surprised at what may pass for a game of skill. Most carnival games are games of skill even though most are known to be rigged against the player, but still technically possible.

There are a lot of very tight regulations of gambling and casino games. Some states like California are forced to severely modify their games to resemble casino staples elsewhere, because of those restrictions. Changing how a game is played may involve not only changing the mechanics of the game, but also…

I've been through that part of Texas. There isn't any fiery death because there is nothing and no one to get killed by.

Fuck turning take my money.

The Crossfire (aka Fusilade) is not a wealthy car, especially since it's been put of production for about ten years.

This is true for technical positions. It is not true for all positions. I seriously looked at joining numerous military branches a few years ago during the recession. The pay sucks. You get free housing sure, and some other benefits. But you still have minimum wage earnings or even less especially if you…

No knock storm the fortress is EXACTLY what you do raiding a terrorist that you believe may make a martyrdom suicide attempt, as was reported to the police here. Anything else is just giving them more time to enact any failsafe plan they may have available, or kill any hostages they might have.

Use of force response isn't a law, it's a policy that has been doled into every police force in the USA for these type of threats. If they hadn't and even one person was injured, the entire force would be seen as incompetent.

Just like everything else they've ever done, it would star a young girl. Instant Japanese market success.
