It's spam if they don't mention the year. If it's Macallan 12 NFW. But 18? Maybe.
Could be worse, though. At least they didn't offer you BLENDED scotch.
That's not enough (based on my own experience). They need:
1 week before: "Wait, do I have the deadline right?" - .2
5 days before: "Are we sure about the deadline?" - .2
3 days before: "Oh sh*t did we f*uck up the deadline?"- .3
1 day before: "Srsly are we REALLY f*cking sure?" - .5
Are you sure he wasn't thinking "can a dog get restraining order?"
I've been gone since 2018, but when I was there DOJ attorneys absolutely had to be barred somewhere (although maybe not in the state where their office was). People got disciplined if they let their state (or DC) bar licenses lapse.
Surely I can't be the only one to see this quote and think immediately of the Monty Python Bruces' Philosopher Song.
Nature reminding me that I have to renew my @baltimoreravens.bsky.social season tickets.
It's 14 degrees outside.
Please tell me the investigation is called Operation Ski Pole.
Well I have no skill in assaulting a monastery so I think we're even.
It's such a shame that kids today can't construct a decent siege tower.
"You don't seem like a Californian. [Pause] Particularly not a SOUTHERN Californian."
From a DOJ colleague (who I called "dude" every time I saw him after that).
"Collette, you couldn't block your way out of a wet paper sack!"
Coach Sims, sophomore year at La Mirada HS (it was one of his favorite rants and not entirely without merit).
Some people say Golden Retrievers are smart ...
There is no such thing as a "short' flight to or from O'Hare Airport. The only question is whether the time on the tarmac will exceed the time in the air.
At this point I'm not sure if we're just going to taxi to Ottawa on the plane instead of fly.
Interesting to see there are no career DOJ attorneys on this filing.
Ravens-Steelers in the battle for AFC North supremacy (aka the Mediocrity Bowl).
The good part of the leaves falling off the trees is that we have a view of the eagle who likes to perch in the tree out back.
Happy Exploding Whale Day for those who celebrate :)
Mamdani is going to implement Maria Reynolds law and I just can't say no to this.

You forgot to mention that Admiral Halsey had the distinct honor of being featured in a Paul McCartney song.

I am fairly certain that every member of the Trump administration copied off of someone else's paper in History class (and Civics, and ... well, most others).
Pretty sure this is how the Zombie Apocalypse starts.
Hope it's true. With those people gone we can provide health care for all and sensible gun restrictions. Just think of what we can accomplish without them standing in the way!
It was dark and I didn't see the skunk in the backyard.
One of the dogs definitely saw the skunk and decided it was prey. He paid the price of his hubris.
And now we are paying the price as well.
If you're wondering, the price continues for a while (3 days and the meter is still running).
The rains in Canada.
Likely a nickname given to him by many women over the years.
Kid next door is going to kayak across the St. Lawrence to Canada today (parents accompanying in their boat). I told him to map out the currents and potential good landing spots ... for no reason whatsoever. Nope, no reason at all to do that- just totally out of curiosity.
