It’s a rural town, so maybe a lot of the kids live in the country and are on wells instead of the town’s water tower?

Some people don’t attach value or sentimentality to $5 valentine’s day cards and would rather just spend time with their partner and spending time picking out a good card for each other can be fun. I personally like the funny ones so it can be fun to pick those out, show them to your partner, have a laugh together, and then put them back. The card brings the same amount of joy, but you don’t have to spend money or throw it away later.

It’s a tough job, but somebody’s gotta do it.

You know, I would like to believe that these people are going to learn their lesson while in jail, but for some reason I doubt it. I don’t know, maybe it’s the fact that after everything trumpty dumpty has said and done, including saying he’s going to be a dictator, and half the country still wants to hand him the country on a silver platter (like everything else in his life)? I don’t understand it.

Cheaper than a kid!

Disregarding acting ability, I don’t think Pattinson had the physicality for it; he didn’t look big enough to me to be believable. You could really tell the Batman costume had a lot of padding when you saw him as Bruce Wayne. I think he’s just too lithe, for the lack of a better descriptor, for the character, you know?

Why not both!

I’m not informed enough on the specifics of why those two countries are/were against Sweden joining, so I can’t speak to that, but every member of the alliance has to approve new members, which is why anyone gives a shit what they think or want. Of course, a healthy alliance isn’t one that ignores its members, so even if their approval wasn’t required, it would probably still be best to get it.

If you don’t own it when paying for it then you aren’t stealing it when pirating it.

Oh, and ignore the fact that the winter storm took out the power because we have our own grid and it’s barely regulated, making it predictably not able to handle the kind of winter storms we’re now more likely to get due to the climate change that we don’t believe in.

For now.

It just occurred to me that these things look sort of like the Zumwalt class stealth destroyers. Has anyone tested this thing against police radar guns? I mean it’s still ugly as hell, but if it’s harder for the cops to bust you for speeding…

In the picture of him swearing an oath to support the constitution, he has a hand on the bible and another raised, so he must have been crossing his toes. That totally counts…in kindergarten.

Do dogs play poker?

What are you saying? We’re not supposed to form ignorant mobs with pitchforks?

You are absolutely not supposed to do that. In fact, you’re supposed to do the opposite. Letting your car idle to warm up kills it faster because the oil pump isn’t running because the car isn’t moving.

That is absolutely not true. The engine runs the oil pump, so the pump is working as long as the engine is spinning, assuming the pump is not faulty, of course. I’m not aware of any car engine ever built where that isn’t true.

That being said, idling your (modern) car for longer than a minute, or as long as necessary to defrost the windows in the winter, is a waste of fuel and, consequently, emissions. It’s also an unnecessary wear on mechanical parts, but not because the engine is cold or hot, but simply because it’s in use.

Is that what she is saying or is she saying that Muslims in the US normally get a lot of hate and since many people are upset by Israel’s actions Jewish people are now getting a taste of that?

Maybe I’m missing some additional context but it doesn’t read to me like she’s condoning the hate towards any specific group, but simply pointing out that it exists.

Maybe she’s full of crap or maybe she’s highly educated on the topic, I don’t know. I do know that it appears to me that people are putting words into her mouth. Again, maybe I’m missing something in the story?

Drivers Tend To Kill Pedestrians At Night. Thermal Imaging May Help.

Thermal imaging will definitely help spot those dirty walkers so I won’t miss as many. Those bastards can blend in sometimes and some of them are deceptively quick. The little ones especially are tough to take out. Of course, sometimes those guys just run right in front of you which are easy points but it takes the sport out of it.

Anyway, it’s about time someone put the right tools in the hands of us hunters. I can’t wait to have an evening cruise with my lights off and really get a good stalk on, you know?

In the Dresden Files by Jim Butcher, they can be held back by any symbol of power that the wielder has faith in and the stronger the faith, the stronger the symbol. For example, Harry, the main character and a wizard, uses a pentagram instead of a cross because he has faith in his magic.

I’ve always thought that was pretty cool and it means that theoretically a devout Pastafarian could use the symbol of the Flying Spaghetti Monster to protect themselves from vampires.
