Her name is Pinky. What did you expect? On the other hand, some spandex and tank top pictures might have been nice.

@taiwan_girl said in $3.8 Billion for Global Talent: You may get people at the end of their careers who can put up with couple of years of a repressive situation for (maybe) good money. I know people who've made a small fortune working in Saudi, but I think this would be different - you'd constantly be looking over your shoulder. And I doubt Hong Kong can pay as well as the Saudi's do.

@George-K said in Fire at Korean Data Center: I just find it kind of amusing that the story about a potentially huge deal is peppered with these relatively minor inconvenience anecdotes. I agree with you. LOL People think it is the end of the world if they cannot add a "like" to someones Snap. LOL But, in another thread, people were talking about using various apps for paying everything in everyday life. If it effected things like that, it would be a problem.

She does have a nice voice though. I believe that she grew up in a very french part of Quebec Canda and did not learn English until she was an adult.

@jon-nyc I wasn’t aware of that. In fact it has been 27+ years since I read Battle Cry so my recollection of it is clouded by time. I actually bought my copy at a bookstore in Helsinki when I was there for a few days to decompress after several months straight in Yeltsin’s wild Western Siberian oil and gas extravaganza. I ought to reread it just reacquaint myself with the author’s historiography.

Let’s petition to get “Commander” canceled just to fuck with the Redskins.

I’ve really ramped up my use of paying with my watch and phone over the last year or so. I’ve whittled my wallet down to a magnetic one with 3 cards that I stick on the back of my phone when I leave the house. I want my car key built into my phone too. I like empty pockets.

She was hired as T&A. She filled her role admirably.

Sick. And not in the slang sense.

I drop every piece on the floor and roll to make sure it is square and level.
