Stocks react badly to change. And then they adjust to it. This is a massive buying opportunity.

His living arrangements are somewhat irrelevant. Whatever the mortgage/rent (or lack thereof) circumstances, the main point is that he effectively has $130k pre-tax Canadian dollars which represent his disposable income, which comes to, say, $85k after taxes, and he chooses to dispose of it through paying for…

Sort of like Bert and Ernie’s sexuality, amirite?

No, everybody should just not do shitty things to people which opens them up to justifiable civil lawsuits that they’ll likely lose, especially when there is a billionaire standing by ready and waiting to finance such lawsuits.

Wanna bet that the person didn’t know about the story because they were sitting in India?

Wow, that guy’s IMDB resume is pretty amazing.

We were very close to eradicating mosquitos (and the diseases which they spread), until DDT was banned. Congratulations.

Great job tying yourself in knots to avoid using the word “Redskins” in your article. You referred to the team as Skins (which really should be ‘skins or ‘Skins, since it’s an abbreviated form of the name) or “the Washington club” and never once used the full name of the team yourself. Only the quoted portions of the…

And I’m saying that the consumer product regulatory differences, including getting UL certification in the U.S., likely means that the guts are, in fact, different in the model sold in China. Just because the shell is the same doesn’t mean the important power components are.
