    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      Obvious arbitrage opportunity.

        The eagles are lip synching their live performances:

        I'm forced to say that this is not huge, and furthermore doesn't change everything.

          Mrs. George once told me (and perhaps @jodi can confirm) that if you have a stallion, you MUST identify it as such if you take it for a trail ride. A red flag on the tail was to be applied.

          Here's why.

                        It is no surprise he has a bowl of smokes on the table.

                                          There was an article I read ( will see if I can re-find it), and the top paid harbor pilot in Los Angeles USA(?) I think was paid something like USD$450K/year. He said that the hardest and most dangerous part of the job was getting on and off ships!
