    @Jolly 1896 Plessey vs Ferguson (7-1 saying separate but equal was okay) 1954 Brown vs Board of Education (9-0 saying separate but equal was not okay) Basically the same argument. Separate but equal. Two opposite decisions.

    Does he like ham? I bought a small bone-in ham for my in-laws last week...Caught it on sale, paid 97 cents/pound. Paid maybe six bucks. Super easy to cook. Good for one meal + a few sandwiches+ one pot of white lima beans.

    Like everyone else has stated, I would think it would be closed system. And even if it wasn’t wouldn’t the vast majority of the water be going back into the table anyway?

    All he really needs to do is remove a couple of toilets to make the building “uninhabitable “, and that would lower his property taxes. After all, it worked for the governor, didn’t it? At least for a while.

    @George-K said in Self checkout increases theft: @jon-nyc said in Self checkout increases theft: I once did that accidentally which is what got me thinking about this. I always buy bananas, code 4011. One day the bananas were bright green so I I got organic bananas. Out of habit I keyed them in with 4011 rather than 94011 (organic is always 9 followed by the regular code). Lock him up. lol

    The breakdown here is roughly 2/3 school tax, and 1/6 each to village and county. Some variation is due to where the line is drawn between state and local funding. Next door in CT, for example, the state funds municipal retirement expenses so local taxes only pay operating costs. Not so in NY.

    @Doctor-Phibes said in How about a game of chess?: It reminds me of an old computer game from the dim and distant past - Battle Chess, but a lot cooler obviously. I remember one called Archon.

    Thanks! We have a bunch but some are "expired" so it's good to refresh. That being said, we've had cold/coughs all season it seems (since start of Nov) and haven't taken a test once, 555
