    @89th said in Just call me Aqua: @Aqua-Letifer said in Just call me Aqua: Any kids with disabilities affected? Kids whose parents don't have their own transportation? In short, you can pay the bus fee. Or I’m sure there will be exemption applications similar to free/reduced lunch Might want to look into the details as there may be some pedantic illegality there.

    Got me. I guess that's free drinks, food etc., but prostitution is illegal in Las Vegas. Not so, out away from Vegas. I'm not sure what the gals at the sporting houses are getting, but I'm guessing a few hundred to a few thousand, depending on time and services. I know they have to split with the House, but surely they are netting a grand or two a day... I guess Jimmy G. would be a business comp and marketing...

    @Doctor-Phibes said in "musical necrophilia": If you listen to Wynton Marsalis and Stanley Crouch, Miles Davis sold out when he played In a Silent Way, and with his later funk and pop-related stuff, even though Kind of Blue sold way more copies than his later stuff. It's bollocks, obviously. Why people can't just say 'I don't like this' is beyond me. Again, I felt this way when I was 16. Wynton seems to still feel the same way now. He seems to be stuck in the pre-electric age, and that you have to wear a 3-piece suit if you want to be taken seriously. Jazz should be anything other than "conservative". lol

    @George-K said in Life on a submaarine: Das Boot is probably the best submarine movie ever made. If you haven't watch it. The TV series is very good as well, but it's not as much focused on submariners' lives as the politics and shore-side events of WWII. Oh, and of course, Red October is a great film, though I wonder (not really) how accurate it was in its depiction of submarine life. @taiwan_girl , I haven't toured the U505 in years and years. I should revisit. If you get the chance, compare the 505 to a U.S. WW2 fleet sub - Gato, Balao or Tench class. I think even the Gato class is a better sub, although it doesn't dive as deep. If you served on an American sub, you got better food, laundry facilities and....wait for it.....Air Conditioning.

    Could happen. US states that were once thought to be solid in one side, are now solid in the other side. Not really, part of the discussion, but I thought this quote from the article was funny. "Not generally acknowledged is the fact that more voters in California in 2020 supported Trump—over 6 million—than in any other state. More than Texas. More than Florida." Well, that is because California has a much bigger population than any other state. LOL I could also say that President Biden got more votes in Texas than President Trump got in 47 states.

    It is a blatant attempt to confuse Mr. Biden. But we know that is not possible.

    Definitely if you want the best outcome and smoke profile, but it’s a commitment. You have to add a split every 45 minutes or so.

    But worsening shortages in the supply of drugs used to treat cancers are drawing dire warnings from medical professionals and those who rely on such medical interventions to save lives. His moonshot plan?
