At this latitude? At this time of year?

So shoot the CEO in the balls?

Dublin-Ireland relations in shambles

Don't go to Times Square for NYE. Not once for the experience. Zero times because you read about just how bad of a decision that is. 0.

When do you think Luigi was identified as the patsy? Please let me know if you see cop-supplied assumptions in the below or if I'm missing anything.

(a) Before the fed-planned shooting. They looked for a reasonable match for their assassin. I'm not even dismissing this one but not going to type out a lot if nobody thinks this is the case.

(b) Before the independent shooting. The feds keep tabs on a big list of people who have dropped off the grid and can reasonably match pretty much any height, race and build to take the fall for major "crimes" committed by a masked individual. Overly complex.

(c) After the fed-planned shooting. Including for completeness' sake but it would be pretty hilarious if they didn't plan that far ahead.

(d) After the independent shooting, before he got to Altoona. NYPD didn't want to hog the credit and figured the Altoona PD needed some time in the spotlight.

(e) After the independent shooting, after he got to Altoona, before finding out that he had dropped off the grid. The cops were just extremely lucky that their close-enough match happened to have been a ghost for a long time before the shooting.

(f) After the independent shooting, after he got to Altoona, after finding out that he had dropped off the grid, before getting his ID. Altoona PD have been hiding the power level of their surveillance state and can use McDonalds-level security cameras to figure out that you've been laying low for months.

(g) After the independent shooting, after he got to Altoona, after finding out that he had dropped off the grid, after getting his ID. They've been stopping tall athletic white dudes with eyebrows all across the country until they hit the jackpot with Luigi and convincing everyone they let go not to talk about it.

I am consistently impressed by your posts.

Does a contractor cause a prorated amount of suffering every day working in the imperial core or not much most days and a whole lot on tax/estimated tax days?

Were the gun and fake IDs really pivotal, though? He still would have the resemblance, the smell of not bathing properly for a few days and no alibi. I think he was fucked the moment somebody dropped the dime regardless.

I don't know, I tried it and it commented its code. Who does that?

It was created for sports. Can't have state school linebackers sacking the fancy lads.

Inside Man was genius.

I think one of the few good lines from the Simpsons after Lindsay Naegle was introduced was "Children are the future. TODAY belongs to ME."

There will be a lot of work on the other end -- protecting individual CEOs. Some will want to emulate the whole secret service. That will be untenable, though; are we really going to shut down major highways not just for presidential visits but for anyone on the forbes 400? They'll decide it's more efficient if they come under actual secret service protection. A significant proportion of our future comrades will point to the day the feds just straight-up listed out who's in charge as their radicalizing experience.

One hospital admission denied by UHC?

Probably just a rehearsal.

You have to assume a significant failure rate for any equipment on a bus and then increase that a lot for equipment not vital to the functioning of the bus. Hope he chose a struggling operator.
