My favorite brick-and-mortar music store is closing its doors. This has made me realize that I haven't bought music for myself in a physical format since 2009 (I've bought CDs and vinyls as presents for others). So it's kinda my fault.

I wonder about their methodology.
At a glance I see no repeats.  Some kind of most per capita allocation for the popular shows so some states are left with rejects they don't actually like much?

Washington and Maine are the same.
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Nah, the regime they have in place is to maintain the principle of reciprocity; or as BB puts it "tit-for-tat".

I've been told it's to protect the environment and prevent smuggling.

I knew a Smuggler.  When I was a kid the old guy down the street was convicted of smuggling his wife to death with a pillow.

Prophet Charges Lion To Prove God's Power, Nearly Killed, Saved By Game Rangers

A ZCC Prophet was nearly killed by a pride of lions in South Africa's Kruger National Park on Saturday after he charged at them to prove the strength of the holy spirit. The lions called his bluff and attacked him, almost killing me. The man was saved by alert game rangers who shot into the air to disperse the lions.

Prophet Alec Ndiwane who is based in the Pretoria Soshanguve was with fellow church members in the Kruger National Park where they were watching animals.It is believed the prophet went into a trance and started to speak in tongues. Ahead of them was a lion pride busy eating their impala.

Alec must have thought he was the biblical Samson as the prophet opened the car door and went charging towards the lions. Upon seeing the man running towards them, the lions could not believed that manna was coming straight from heaven and instead ran towards the prophet

I spent an hour trying to figure out why гость declines into гостей and not гостев.  Answer:  The Case chart I was using was wrong. <_<
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

Rather than overcoming mental illness, he has decided to embrace it, and join a community of people with similar challenges. No part of the internet is bigger and crazier than runet.
They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)

Tomato vs potato is interesting. Both plants are native to the Americas and they don't really fill the same niche in one's diet. Also, why not eat both?

Tomatoes need sunlight, see #4.

Also working hard correlates with emotional repression, laziness with sexual repression.
