If we consider that the gravitational constant "g" applies, we could consider the earth to be "g"round....

in footie they should award more indirect FKs for fouls in the penalty box, it just seems they dive too much and "force the foul" and there is this ridiculous notion of "well yes it was a foul but it wasn't really enough to warrant a penalty"
... and I can prove it with my usual, flawless logic.

For Andrew Bacevich fans: April 9 interview with Bill Moyers on Afghanistan.
Andrew Sullivan quotes this part on his blog today:
Andrew Sullivan quotes this part on his blog today:
Quote
Osama bin Laden is not Adolf Hitler. Al-Qaeda is not Nazi Germany. Al-Qaeda poses a threat. It does not pose an existential threat. We should view Al-Qaeda as the equivalent of an international criminal conspiracy. Sort of a mafia that in some way or another draws its energy or legitimacy from a distorted understanding of a particular religious tradition.
And as with any other international criminal conspiracy, the proper response is a police effort. I mean, a ruthless, sustained, international police effort to identify the thugs, root out the networks and destroy it. Something that would take a long period of time and would no more succeed fully in eliminating the threat than the NYPD is able to fully eliminate criminality in New York City.

while normally i would appreciate that humor, i even prefaced it with "stupid question." you might be shocked to learn that i did actually google this earlier, which is how i know the prices of walmart's cheapest vs other average ones! if i was interested in roasting pans for thanksgiving, it would have been very helpful.
on the other hand, i don't very much respect the opinions of LOLs on the random internet and somewhat value the opinions of BBF.

They'll want you to take a 14-day free trial. It's worth it. You might even decide to subscribe, which is also, IMO, worth doing.

You can do bacon (or anything else that matters) in a frying pan.
Roast what? Kidney beans?
