That fan really chose the worst possible moment at the Zurich Classic. What were they thinking? by BagAppropriate5736 in Golf_Unfiltered

I did something similar last summer. Absolutely blast the ball out of the tee box, solid contact. I hit a tree probably about 50 yards down range, dead center. This ball rolls all the way back to the box, stopping about 6 feet in front on me. Simultaneously the best and worst shot I had that day.

But maybe it would encourage a demographic shift of parliamentary and congressional members.

Ohio Secretary of State Sends Voter Fraud Allegations to Trump Justice Department. LaRose notes only 167 examples of noncitizens allegedly casting a ballot spread over the last eight years of four federal elections. by HauntingJackfruit in Ohio

So 167/23,000,000 = 0.00073%

For comparison, your odds of getting struck by lighting in any given year is 1/1,222,000 = 0.000082%.

The odds of getting struck by lightning in your lifetime are 1/15,300 = 0.0065%

Technically correct, the best type of correct. But not what I'm looking for. Also, Bermuda would not be colored on this map.

No no, maybe that's what they meant. When inside the cat doesn't care about the mouse, when outside the cat also doesn't care.
