So there is an upside to Comcast cable over symmetrical Gigabit fiber.
What happened to English speakers? (On both sides of the Atlantic)
You used to be champions with sayings like "Sticks and stones can break my bones, but words can never hurt me".
But now you arrest people for the thought crime of being racist.
No way to defeat the jammer?
I beg to differ!
It's called a landline.
And the phone should be made from bakelite!
Where is Panem?
My basic assumption is that with Amazon, the starting price is $5, no matter how cheap crap.
IE, you pay for the "free shipping".
But this one was an exception, $2.27, or a 3-pack for $6.81.
I guess Amazon's shipping costs must have dropped quite a bit.
I was gonna go to a latino grocery store, but the wench that answered the phone hung up on me when she heard my Gringo accented Spanish.
Why am I getting this? Homemade sauce for Al Pastor pork BBQ.
A while ago I ordered 1/4-28 screws to fix my chicken feeder.
When they arrived, they wouldn't go through the bulkhead threaded holes I needed them to go through.
A trip to the really good independent hardware store revealed that the screws I actually needed were 6mm screws. 1/4" is about 6.3mm, so when I used my one remaining screw on the sizing fixtures at home depot, the 6mm screw fit in the 1/4-28 tapped hole.
I am glad to have that great independent store:

I don't know, I just thought that tattoo with a typo was incredibly funny!
Hit it!

My first ISP (in the Denver area) was ABWAM.com: Anything Beats Working At Martin (Marietta), a local defense contractor.
Sounded Russian.
Must have transitioned early. (To babushka).
Why would he admit being Somali?
"US President Donald Trump later confirmed that the White House had supported West Jerusalem in conducting the strikes, citing the failure of nuclear diplomacy as a direct trigger for the move."
I love it! Let's say "West Jerusalem" instead of Israel. We are so smart!
Up there with the IOC calling Taiwan "China, Taipei".
The news source is from Malaysia!
My daughter thinks the C-word is "crap".
That's cute!
"From that time, they were inseparable and thrived on the stardom that remaining in the Quarter after Katrina brought them. Addie frequently flashed her breasts at passing police vehicles, ensuring they regularly patrolled the area. This, in turn, increased police presence and improved traffic flow in the area."

I told this joke to a colleague last month, but back then it was a lawyer joke.

It is hard for me to feel sympathy, because Americans making much less money than me are buying so much crap at inflated prices, that it drives up my costs.

Murder by homeless person whose previous crimes were sufficient to lock him up if the blue city of Miami prioritized right?
