Not a football guy by any means, but an average European rugby player would have a hard time making the cut at a D-1 college let alone in the NFL. Considering how obscene the money is in American pro sports (only F-1 and the top tier international football teams pay more) there don't appear to be too many people making the transition from European sports to the NFL. We do however readily accept the cream of the world's crop into the NBA, MLB and NHL on a fairly regular basis.
A person sitting next to you on a park bench listening to you talk doesn't invade your privacy because you know he is there. A person listening to you over a microphone installed on the back side of the very same bench when you appear to be alone does.

In the above you/your are presumed to be plural, but it may be more entertaining to include the singular aspect as well.
If they're so civilized the government shouldn't have a problem letting the fathers, mothers, brothers, uncles etc... of the 77 victims have some alone time with him one at a time. If one of them chooses to be less than civil the good news is the prison would have an empty cell/room/suite (whatever they call their rehabilitative accommodations up there, vacation rental?) they could move into on short notice.
Or do like GM did with the EV1 back in the 90's and never actually sell them, only leases. That way you get to enforce contract terms like "thou shalt not disassemble".
I tend to work on making new games for old consoles. I know I can't put a roof over my head doing that no matter how much I enjoy it. That doesn't stop me from doing it in my spare time while I work a REAL job.
But that doesn't mean you have to allow other people (including "incorporated" people) to make money off your work.
Wait, what just happened there, did I advance the argument for the music industry?
But if you instead insist on driving exclusively on ice roads on the sides of mountains in northern Alaska in December, well, God bless you, but your first breakdown is likely to either bankrupt you or kill you.
Meh, just catch a ride with the reality-tv film crew.
323 meters, thank you very much. Which at 1,059 feet is 59 feet to spare when it comes to mountain-hood. But admittedly it is about 200 feet from the German-Belgian-Dutch border.
That's 187 million drone years to cause one (1) air to air injury. Taking the average mortality rate of being a human on planet earth of ~12/1000 you could expect 2 1/4 million of your drone pilots to die in the course of one year while only having a 50% probability of causing 1 commercial aircraft injury/fatality.
So that puts the expected score for the Deadly Drones of 0.5 to 2.25 million against.
Since over 50% of defense spending is personnel costs, do you believe there are 150,000 people (10 percent of the US active duty armed forces) in the US that could reasonably be expected to meaningfully contribute to energy research? It is after all a relatively specialized field.
Yeah but according to Mr. S. King the likelihood of death by alien, giant spider-thing, possessed car, zombie dog etc. are way above the national average in that region.
Not sure what the going rate for methane is but if they accidentally burned 300 million gallons of gasoline the bean counters who have to account for $300M of product might care a little.

This is more like trespassing than breaking and entering.
Also know to my British friends as sex in a canoe.
If you can walk away after landing an SR-71 on the water then you might want to check your head for a crown of thorns.
So you could record shows and never watch them? Its the electronic monk all over again. It watches TV for me so I don't have to.

To get extremely pedantic about it, sweet corn is for direct human consumption.
Feed corn is still fed to humans - but only in highly processed states. Corn meal, corn syrup, and such.
You forgot the ultimate stage of feed corn processing, as meat.

Found step 3. Sell the laser below cost and make it up on refills.

I believe AC meant "register" for the draft. Which is a requirement for all men to do within 30 days of their 18th birthday in the US.
You could call it management (or leadership) training in some sectors.

I just want a personal copy of "A Young Lady's Illustrated Primer".
Even if I'm not young, or a lady.
Yeah, well so I checked and um, 1/4" (6.35mm) is less than 8mm.
Yeah but according to Mr. S. King the likelihood of death by alien, giant spider-thing, possessed car, zombie dog etc. are way above the national average in that region.
Well I would say holding secret meetings is foreboding. Clearly those cattle are up to something.
He says that earths are statistically rare.
If they are not impossible, merely highly improbable, then by the Law of Big Numbers their existence is inevitable.
"Fuck it. Who cares if it leaks".

"Snowcrash" much?
The world has ALWAYS been full of self righteous assholes.
Wait, are you referring to Stephen Frye or the other people?
'The Room Had Started To Smell. Really Quite Bad'
This could easily be one of those "If you can't identify who the sucker is...then it's you." moments.
