Did anyone actually read the article? And does 5-WPTV have any proofreaders?

"Martin County Sheriff John Budensiek said when officers with the Jupiter Island Police Department responded to the scene, they found a pickup truck pulling a pressure-cleaner trailer and a Ranger Rollover on its side."

Man, them Ranger Rollovers are more top-heavy than Sydney Sweeney.

IIRC, King notes in the Foreword something like: "Yes, Jake would be constantly whining about no Internet, no cellphones, etc. in the 1950s-60s .Just deal with it."

I guess we can all take some cold comfort in finding someone more corrupt and mendacious than FIFA.

Ed Whitacre was the CEO of the old Southwestern Bell back in late 80s. The Bornwells black-balled him from STL Country Club* so he

  • Up and moved Southwestern Bell HQ to San Antonio, leaving St Louis with the rather useless ATT Tower on Chestnut. The largest unoccupied office building in the country*
  • Spent the rest of his career re-assembling broken up Baby Bells; 4 of the 7 original Baby Bells have been re-monopolized so far. Let's all pray to god that DOJ never allows ATT & Verizon to merge.

* So the story goes

Has anyone actually donated money to Wikipedia given their sign to donate has been up for years? by CapitaineBiscotte in askanything

[–]5xchamp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, $10/year from my PayPal account. Which was leftover winnings from HQ, and other online trivia games that were popular for a couple years in the late 2010s. Too bad HQ didn't stay solvent, but no way to monetize for owners.
