    Doesnt she claim to hail from somewhere down in the  "hood" , but shes actually from Westchester or something?

    Born in Westchester but moved to the Bronx when her mom split from her dad.  She keeps her apartment in the "hood" and tells people she's still stays in the hood but IIRC, she owns a lavish townhouse in DC where she spends 99% of her time.

    Ok i get that i guess. When i grew up in germany there was no flag waving and no outspoken national pride as a late late consequence of us wanting to take over the world. The other European countries were pretty sensitive to German Nationalism,understandably so. I suppose that's why i am sensitive to national pride.

    Don't you know it's only pride when it's Americans waving the American flag?  Any other country that displays their flag proudly is call propaganda.  How would anyone love the only country they've ever known when they clearly know their country can only be at most 2nd best?

  3. A friend of mine had her cousin go missing for a while too.  Turns out she was pregnant and was afraid to tell her parents so she "ran away" for a few days.  Never gave me the details of how she was found or if she came back or whatever and I don't care to ask.  They were obviously embarrassed about it.

  4. When I talk to sports fans they complain about their teams.  They blast the owners, they blast the decisions their teams make, etc.  Whenever you ask them "why don't you root for a different team" they will always respond with "Never!  I grew up a Bills (or who ever) fan.  Been a fan all my life.  Will never switch!"  Funny because whenever someone criticize the country the first response is always "If you don't like it then just leave."  They make it sound they believe allegiance to sports team is greater than allegiance to a country.  You can pledge your full allegiance to the US and still criticize it for making bad decisions.  To me, a country is almost like family.  I bitch constantly at my big bro for being lazy and smoking all the time but it'll be pretty absurd for anyone to tell me to ditch my brother.

     

    Just my 2 cents.

  5. That Dodger deal is ridiculous.  $40 million in year one, $45 million in year two.  Then he's opting out and cashing in again.  The 3rd year at $17 is only written in there to bring the average annual salary down because for the luxury tax penalty purposes, they count the average and not individual year.  $45 million for one year blows away the next closest guy by $9 million.  Crazy.

    Wait till summer . I’ve traded draft king in the past but you need to time it right . Buy in the summer cause it falls hard . Only sport is baseball and nobody bets baseball. Sell after the Super Bowl or even after NBA finals 

    Yeah, I bought DraftKings at just under $30 back in May and sold them when they hit $40 in June.  Unfortunately, months later they made a deal with ESPN and skyrocketed some more.

  8. My liberal friends think I'm conservative because I'm always countering them.  My conservative friends think I'm a liberal because I'm always countering them.  In my opinion, only listening to people who agree with you only enhances your belief good or bad.  Listening to counter points with an open mind helps you grow.  That's why I play the devil's advocate a lot.  That's why I mean by I do this with both sides of the fence.

  9. Because the article posted, the person stated that he is basing it purely on the fact that there was a small outbreak in 1917 that they couldn't identify and that the mortality rate is lower in China.  The news report was a small outbreak in the US that they couldn't identify and guess what?  Which country has a low mortality rate?  I'm just saying if one is a theory, why can't the other also be?  Assisted living residents don't generally travel around much.

    PS: The CDC/American Red Cross report by the way, is not a theory.
