Interesting story; Thanks for the bakery tip too.

THIS all day! I also like that the episode was a way of “humanizing” people of color in a way that reality TV doesn’t often show. Between LAHH and RHW we often see fighting and caricatures. As a person of color, I’m often shocked in 2017 that some white people (including some of the white men I’ve dated) believe…
“That unlike Tiger is regular men don’t have to fight off ten’s walking to our Mercury Tracers.” - HA!
It depends on the nature of your contract (if you have one with Fox which is often why you see the same people over and over) or whatever your agent/organization can work out. Yes it drives blog traffic but make no mistake these are reciprocal relationships. (And some of your favorite newspaper writers LOVE being on…
I’ve watched that episode/doc I don’t know how many times and still don’t understand the math. How does the money just dissipate? How are millions just “gone” in a matter of years. Taxes I get but the other stuff? And people just sponging off you? How does that work? Do they have credit cards or just draw cash from…
Actually, there’s a man who specializes in EXACTLY what you’re talking about re: cliche cars for athletes with head injuries:
It’s all my fault; That dinosaur movie from the 90s and I have ruined the mammoth cloning plan. Blame me:
What is it with the car wash franchises? Who thought up that idea?
Isn’t he where Chuck Liddell was 12 years ago? I don’t think Chuck has financial problems, but he’s faced some personal challenges. One would think the UFC would offer counseling (personal or financial) for the fighters that are the face of the business.
Frankly, I think something is going on in this poster’s personal life and he/she is spoiling for a fight with strangers. Who’d have thought a beautiful creature like the mammoth would bring out the worst in everyone? I’ll be avoiding Jezebel for a week or two because people are stressed and taking it out on each…
(You know I was half-joking and as I mentioned above my frame of reference was Science Fiction. I quote “Jurassic Park” FCS.)
And I’d hoped people would realize my responses were tongue-in-cheek, instead I’m being lectured on an alleged anti-science viewpoint I don’t have over a mammoth that may not end up cloned. Things are very serious right now, but everyone needs to hit the “Chill” button and relax.
I don’t have definitive answers because I don’t write budgets, but perhaps because there’s more political capital to bring back an extinct animal than fund quality of life initiatives. Who knows? If you have an idea feel free to pass it on, though I can feel your antagonism seeping through my laptop screen.
I know nothing of science and only know about cloning via Science Fiction so thanks for clarifying. That said, I’m anti-cloned mammoth.
My larger point is how do we know that; I know I sound wingnutish, but I don’t really understand the point of this? With all the diseases yet to be cured, alternative medicines to be researched, and children’s vaccine, Head Start/Morning Lunch programs to fund, I can’t co-sign on Mammoth cloning. (Unless they could be…
I didn’t clarify; What if mammoths carry a disease that could adversely effect animals already on the planet including/especially their relatives, elephants.
I always assumed “America Dad” was correct in that the Dodo was “too stupid to live,” coupled with humans ruining it’s habitat? A little from column A & B, perhaps? (I’m kidding, BTW.)
Would there be danger of the mammoth spreading potential diseases to other animals? How would it effect our ecosystem and the animals alive today? My fear (probably unfounded and unnecessary) is that there’s some sort of eventuality these scientists didn’t think of. What is there’s a mammoth fever or something crazy…
Or just got creative; It’s alleged that Bernie Madoff’s sons were murdered with cancer and suicide being creative ways to “hit” them due to the suspicious timing of both deaths and the odd suicide narrative in Mark’s death:
Are you sure you’re not on a “do not deliver” list? Are you a marginal tipper? (No judgment, but allegedly those lists are real.)
