They've probably been spying on us for a lot longer than that.

I had the impression I was eating like two or three chicken breasts somehow glued together and then breaded and deep-fried.  It kind of creeped me out.  I like chicken on the bone so I have no idea why I even bothered trying it. :hmm:

Just how big a portion that was? God damn Americans

Sure.  I'd rather be at my house getting waited on by my slaves than doing my job, too.

I imagine the point of quoting that bit is to suggest Washington didn't care too much for power or politics.

I'd say that it's more indicative that he was an introvert than anything else.
Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

Manu Ginobili with a really cool pass that went nearly unnoticed live:



:lol:  There's no way he did that on purpose, but still.

Here's what it looked like live (and in slomo again): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fIoPkUAGYiQ

Well sure, he does that kind of shit a lot.  Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.  The whole thing would have been even more awesome if Parker hadn't bricked it.  Parker made up for it at the end though with the ridiculous sequence/shot that put the game away.

E:  Parker's....er....whatever this was in slo-mo from a better angle than live (plus music!):  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UFUh4toTS5k

QuoteBy the time of the trial, Ramirez had fans who were writing him letters and paying him visits.[26] Beginning in 1985, freelance magazine editor Doreen Lioy[27] wrote him nearly 75 letters during his incarceration.[28] In 1988 he proposed to her, and on October 3, 1996, they were married in California's San Quentin State Prison.[29] Before Ramirez's death, Lioy stated that she would commit suicide when Ramirez was executed.[30] By some estimates, he would have been in his early seventies before his execution was carried out, due to the lengthy California appeals process.[31

Yeah man...I'm sure the rest of the Languishites growing up in the '80s and older remember that motherfucker. That was one hell of a serial killer media storm.
