  1. Freedom fondling.
  2. Her Facebook already is locked down. Looks like Reddit started having some fun with her yesterday. The reviews seem to indicate that this is the same person. https://www.experience.com/reviews/stephanie-6558833
  3. I'd say to be careful where he points that thing, but he looks to have at least a few inches of clearance.
  4. Just found out I got booked at the Double Tree about a mile from here for a conference I'm going to in May. Definitely stopping by for some High Life.
  5. Well, yeah. It's not 1:1. But the a lot to be ashamed about part sure tracks.
  6. Its like aggy.
  7. It's the Surly Tailgate of air travel.
  8. We'll be 98% Unicom in four years. I've long parroted the idea that if you assume he is a Russian asset (useful idiot), it all makes perfect sense. Was that why he championed birtherism, I don't know. Was it why he ran the first time and asked Putin for help and received it, maybe. Was it why he ran a second and a third time? Apart from avoiding prison, possibly. Self-preservation is job one for him. Grifting is job two. Staying alive by keeping those he owes biggly is job three at the lowest, but in this high of office, maybe not. The first two (self-preservation and grifting) are what it's really all about. A lot of the dismantling of the institutions of government are mostly a distraction to enable grifting, if I had to guess. Cut the budget, reallocate what you cut to new government contractors in which you have an interest or with which you have some reciprocal agreement in place, ???, profit. And to a part of your point, let us not forget that circumstantial evidence is also known as evidence.
  9. Smoke and mirrors while they rob us blind.
  10. He just missed my buddy who was down there a couple of weeks ago on some photography club trip.
  11. I heard he took up sailing.
  12. This. Mine only went in for warranty work once (I learned super-auto grinders don't like dark, oily beans), and I've had it for about twelve years and counting, with many of its early years being my daily driver. The kettle frother is one touch and gets pretty close. So I mostly use it these days. My 19 year old really works this machine hard when he's home from school and did so through most of high school. Naturally, I'm the one that has to clean it. A friend of mine got to demo a Breville Barista model many years ago. He kept it at our office, and I was really impressed with the shots it pulled.
  13. My Gaggia has a wand on it. It works fine, but I don't love having to clean it (even though there's not much to it). Plus, it's a single boiler. So if I want to froth milk, then pull the shots into the frothed milk, timing can be tricky. I usually resort to the $25 frothing kettle, which works surprisingly well. You have to scrub what little milk burns onto the bottom of it, but it's not terrible. There's an auto-frother attachment for the Gaggia, but I just haven't bothered to get it. I tend to drink drip during the week and use the espresso machine on the weekends most often.
  14. Which Breville is it?
  15. At least it's not America.
  16. Thanks, President Mump.
  17. Came to post this. He was so fantastic. RIP Just a bunch of kids in animal costumes.
  18. Roll into Walgreens and get the shot. 1st shot has 93% efficacy. Second shot gets you to 97% 28 days later. No time like the present. /edit to add: make an appointment online to make it as short of an experience as possible.
  19. My primary doc told me the same thing ten years ago. I found a new doc pretty soon thereafter. My question that prompted response from her that had nothing to do with origin of the outbreak. Some people can't help themselves. Her practice morphed into a "med spa" peddling botox within a few years anyway.
  20. I've copied the requested language. Now I just need your phone number to send you a text in exchange for a check. Please and thanks.
  21. Now with way more racial slurs.
  22. Does Scottie know? /RIP
  23. . . . surrounded by roaches which had the good sense to vacate the burning house because that's not how you get rid of roaches.
