I think that there were about 0 people in the British Empire that feared their formal colony in the mid-1800s. It would be like the current US being at all concerned about what is happening in New Zealand.

I mean to be honest, when I am fully recovered from my back surgery, I will be a LONG time from doing a car project. My wife and home have a LONG and growing list of things I need to do, but can’t do because my back is roached. And as for paying someone to do it, that isn’t on the table because I have to pay the…

Lucky bastard.  For me it was a block concrete building.

Meh, Ford did it better in the 70s

Oh, celeb DUIs happen all the time. However, it all depends on the persona on if it is recoverable.

I think the trial made a big deal.  Before the trial, Donnie was making it look like he was being trapped.  But it became clear he is a pervert and a lying one at that.
