  1. Question: How does a wind bow? Edit: i lost track of the ask raider column.
  2. Next week's movie night at my place will be Tombstone.
  3. Stultus est. Si tibi voluerit contendere cum eo, et descendunt ad plana caedam suam experientiam.
  4. What ever the **** we want.
  5. Thank for this redundancy.
  6. English is NOT the official language of America. Enjoy this knowledge and carry on.
  7. Google doesn't spit out an answer, it just points you toward websites that may have the answer. And depending on that website, it could be fictional or factual. Edit: Which is why in college we had to use multiple sources to back up our finding. Wikipedia was guaranteed a huge loss in points.
  8. I used to be able to read and write some Latin, but I have already forgot 95% of things I learned. I have hearing problems and I can barely understand what half of you all are saying, let alone a foreign language when you factor in accents and different vowels that aren't in the English language.
  9. This must been filmed at your house, because Raider lives in an apartment complex.
  10. He needs entertainment somehow. I'm impressed that there wasn't a single pothole on that road.

    It doesn't say the retailer pays for it per this quote: "Fishing rods and fishing poles. The tax on fishing rods and fishing poles (and component parts) is 10% of the sales price not to exceed $10 per article. The tax is paid by the manufac- turer, producer, or importer. " The IRS has another page on their site that will define who pays it. It will not always be the retailer (in the tax code retailer can fall under importer) , beside the tax is base on percentage of the sales price, marking the price up just raises the tax liability..... Federal excise tax is nothing new. Everything, whether it a product or currency, has tax stipulations to it. Local, state, or federal... Hell, the IRS says if you find a $1 bill on the sidewalk, that should be added to your gross income. Seriously.
  15. Current issue topic: should marijuana be legal or remain status quo with federal government? Or is this too controversial? You didn't mention what class this is for?

    I wouldn't have said anything without a legit reason.

    Today, I bossed around my fellow co-workers. These are the people that, theoretically, on same corporate level as me. Upper management got a wind of it and said nothing to me. I got tired of their sloppiness, laziness, cockiness, etc., so I finally snapped and called them out on it. The owners of the company looked at me, and walked away while my peers just stood there in shock. So, this is what it feels like to be a boss? Maybe one day I be a great boss as I feel nothing inside. The very fact I care about a company as a whole, and yet the bottom-line does not affect me in any way, must mean for something. I guess I care about whipping things into shape and achieving greatness without care for money, but rather the satisfaction of success and state of mind of a job well done that gives you a high feeling.. I don't care if my co-workers hate me or love me again, long as I know I made a difference.. Huh.. weird.. Guess I had to vent a little even though I never talk about work outside of, well, work. I was also recently sent to deal with a client, I guess you could say I was a diplomat at a business level, and man it felt great to be that trusted and respected. As i think back, society as a whole and human beings are strange breeds that are misunderstood. It's amazing, don't you think? If you get my drift, that is.
  18. Make that -$45,000,000 with a prenup should I get tired of her.
  19. What does regret means?
  20. For those of you thinking that my previous post is a typo, it's not. What that means is Raider must give me $15 mil to take her off his hand.
  21. I give ya -$15,000,000 for it.
  22. Even if it was or is true, what the heck does it matters?
  23. Hmmmm homemade spaghetti sauce...that be something for me to do this year.
  24. I grew a salsa garden two years ago. I normally grow onions, tomatoes, and peppers.
