Well, if you're planting IN mongers you don't really need acreage right?

Yeah, they shouldn't have crossed the Mob.

Tonight my dad was telling me about how his dad visited Cuba quite a bit back in the 1930's.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Looks like I have a year or two before I have to worry about bumping into a Budweiser-drinking overweight American from Texas in speedos and a 10-gallon hat on the beach,and his wife.

How many acres of sugar cane do you figure the mob planted in 58 mongers?

Would 58 mongers even cover an acre?

They got bikes. They'd cover miles upon miles and be HAPPY while doing it.

Was he mobbed up?

When did Batista take power?  From what I've read, that's when US business interests (beyond agriculture) got really excited.

Russia is still in the Crimea.  When do we lift those sanctions?

(Marco Rubio's point.)
The sanctions on Russia are at least currently having an effect.
