Well played, good sir. Well played. +1
Try Costco, if there's one near you. A core part of their business model is the radical idea that workers will be more productive if you pay them a decent wage and don't treat them like crap.
With respect, you don't have to carry guns, ammo, body armor, tactical gear, and all the other stuff that someone who just spent a year in Afghanistan needs.
Unless you just carry that stuff around anyway because you're the most badass woman ever.

Excellent article. Couldn't agree more on the Johnson-Froch fight... I scored it a draw, and I was really rooting for Johnson to win, but the sheer volume of punches thrown by Froch in the later rounds (even if most were blocked), as Johnson slowed down, was enough that I can't really argue with the decision.
"Such is the douchery of assholes from Staten Island paying $30 for the right to buy cotton candy from teenagers and see the "safari" for the day. "
As a former Staten Islander, I just want to say that this remains an accurate description of a large percentage of the residents of that misbegotten place. My sympathies.

Best line I've seen: "It's truly remarkable what Americans can accomplish when the Playstation Network is down."
R.I.P. It's always a shame when we lose a man of such caliber.
Going from the North Shore to the South Shore is like going from a suburban NYC to a strange Italian Mississippi.
In short: yes.
In less short: It's New York, but getting to the other boroughs (with or without a car) is such a pain in the tuchas that a lot of people never leave the island. Hell, I went to high school in Manhattan (Hunter pride!), and I took a *boat* to school. A boat. As part of my two-hour commute.
Also, my house has those same swing-open windows! I suspect there are a couple of major home construction firms that did a lot of the work on SI, and they all used the same window supplier.

Key thing to remember here: Even if the owners don't have to pay player salaries during the lockout, and even if they furlough most or all of the team staff, they still have to pay rent for facilities. They still have to pay to maintain those facilities. They have to pay property taxes. And, most importantly, they have to pay off loans, which could get particularly dicey for teams that just recently built stadiums or did major stadium renovations.
The loans in particular are problematic. If the NFL is anything like MLB, they have rules on how much debt a team can carry relative to their assets. If they have to start draining their funds to pay their loans without an incoming cash flow, those teams without owners willing (or able) to drop tens of millions of their own money into the team are going to get really anxious really quickly.

Ia ia! Cthulhu Financial! Cthulhu Financial!
It's gonna be really funny at the ceremony when the presenter tries for a handshake and Sanchez instead goes for a high-five.
Are you kidding? A Dem who had a major financial stake in coal mines would be raked over the coals by environmental groups. And the hypothetical gay activist with a secret wife on the side... that one doesn't even make sense, because there's no hypocrisy involved between advocating for gay causes and having heterosexual sex.
Though the fact that you think there is speaks volumes about you, good sir.

This may the first time a Sanchez pass went too low.
@SaintPatricksYear: If someone murdered my family, was put on death row, asked for Italian for his/her last meal, and was offered a meal from Olive Garden, I would object on the grounds that it was cruel and unusual punishment.
Unfortunately, although the NFL has a good idea of which players are using the spray, their public report only refers to various "John Doe"s.
