When I was young and visiting a friend whose father made his living gambling with cards, four of his friends showed up and they set up a table to play. I asked if I could join. They said yes.
We sat at the table and two of the men pulled out revolvers and laid them on the table.
A bit frightening to my younger self but that was the most civil and honest goddamn card game I have ever been in in my life.
Just because a listing is for a COBOL/FORTRAN/etc job doesn't mean the company will hire an older, experienced applicant. I've been subjected to that myself.
Obama didn't get it because Obama didn't give it. Remember his bs about Romney?
Trump should have to earn respect just like everyone else.
Like Obama earned the Nobel?
By the way, I agree he should earn it but that also implies people should wait to see if he does instead of going ape-shit and saying we're on the verge of a dictatorship.
When I was dating my wife, our first date was my dime at a high end Chinese restaurant that had "all of the above"; entries, desserts, food bar. It was in the middle of performance season and I ate two meals (which opened her eyes wide, she thought I was getting some food to go as well as eat then). After season, she took me out to one her fav bistros. I spotted "rack of lamb", one of my favorites. TWO FRIGGIN' TINY LITTLE RIBS (seriously, the smallest I have ever seen), half a fucking carrot sliced into slivers and a scoop of mashed turnip (which I do love). All arranged purty. What she paid for that meal was about the same as what I paid for the other.
I was 6'2", 220 at the time and I was still famished. I got two burgers on the way home.
Home cooking? Depends on the home and person.
She and her two sons rotated cooking so once we married, I made a seared molasses/steak dinner with potatoes & gravy and some other side.
Came Chuck's (eldest) turn. He bustled around the kitchen for almost forty minutes and when I came to the table what was the "home cooked" meal? A ladies cup of hot tomato soup and one slice of toast. No joke.
I looked him in the eye, folded the toast twice, put it my mouth and gulped the soup in one swallow (that small a cup) and said "Thank you."
Crave just means a powerful desire for. It can mean you're hungry or it can mean you love a certain food and have just decided that's what you want now. While shopping the other day I spotted some lobster. Hadn't had it in a long time and suddenly craved it so I bought two tails. I was not hungry.
Anyone who believes that scientists receiving grants are working altruistically is essentially taking a worshipful attitude. Scientists are just people with every foible the rest have.
I so look forward to the day that actors can be replaced by CGI. I'm tired of seeing the Jim Carrys, Will Smiths, et al. of the world. One of the reasons I prefer Indi films.
its use in full screen monitors has been ignored by the majority of purchasers
Mostly because there's a huge difference between using one finger to swipe a small screen and lifting your arm and reaching over your keyboard and moving your arm across the screen.
I used to do it all the time when I was commuting for contract. Every time I heard them announce the request I made sure I hustled on up there. Later plane and cash in pocket or free next trip.
First off, I'm not a Democrat. I'm not a Republican either.
Bullshit, I've seen your posts where you claim any affiliation that suits whatever argument (and you've posted arguments that counteract each other), Dem, Rep, Lib, Comm... whatever.

You have far less reason to doubt his claim than the "ALL sysadmins" claim which, since it's an absolute, is undoubtedly false.
'Exactly' was meant for you to supply a link to the law in question, not simply make another assertion.

What law exactly?

How fortunate it is that we have a clairvoyant aboard.

That's what I thought you'd say.
For someone a little deeper than you, he implied there's no need to get a new watch. Especially since reader students said he had a cell.
I'm with justthinkit; no watch, no cell, no need.
Milk was a component of the European diet long before any 'growth industries'.
Oh, bullshit.
Really? I haven't noticed it. I can focus far, near, between. Sorry to hear you have that problem.
No. Nor should there be.
Bingo - and places also lie on the menu.

Your opinion or preference does not constitute fact.
Not completely true. It depends on the brand. Underwood and Remington have zeros. But yes, curly quotes were a solution to a non-problem.
Most of the intelligentsia of this country are really just sophomores who like to quote unrelated movie lines as if they held significance.

Do not project your shallowness onto me.
