They dump fuel so they can safely land due to weight, as you guessed. In this case it was a cross-country trip, so the plane had a fair amount of fuel that needed to be offloaded.

I had a layover in Midway at maybe 7:30am once. Everyone — and I mean everyone — was drinking. Like, are you going to get the shakes between security and boarding?

Also, according to North Carolina law, the Register of Deeds does not have a duty to verify the legal sufficiency of a deed when it is presented for registration, nor do they have a duty to verify or inquire as to the legal sufficiency of a notary acknowledgment or the capacity of the drafter.

They really pulled a “not our problem” on what is a massive problem, and blamed it on having to process a bunch of forms per day. Guess what: it’s exactly your job to process a bunch of forms.

I’m impressed at this article for spelling out exactly how little the Register of Deeds needs to follow up on, almost to the point that you could, like, pull some shit. Maybe on, say, someone higher up in the Register of Deeds office and rub it in their dumb faces. Not that anyone should, of course.

I loved Stop Making Sense

Unless your truck has an 8-foot bed for work, which would actually be longer than the front portion seating a family and therefore useful, it’s a silly waste of money. The point of a truck is hauling things, not people.

Ban the crew cab and force the trucks to be used as trucks, not minivan/SUV substitutes. Suddenly a $60k+ pavement princess used for hauling a recliner once a year isn’t as appealing.

That’s some JPay shit

Estée Lauder’s “cut to the chaise”

I believe he’s actually playing putt-putt golf, the one with the windmills.

Tonight, on Saying That Last Little Bit that John Oliver Can’t Say…

Swivel the ipad 360° and walk away

I got a Trump door hanger. Meanwhile, the dems are canvassing the neighborhood on issues like public education vs charter schools. They’re doing more than just going to Kinkos.

A holocaust/genocide studies professor once told me there were two categories of holocaust deniers, and while the former were fools, the latter truly scared him:

1. “It didn’t happen.”

2. “It wasn’t a holocaust because they didn’t finish the job.”

This is veering into #2 territory when you view these deaths as some sort of portion that had “overcrowding.”

“First thing you learn is that you always gotta wait.” Taken from the Velvet Underground about buying drugs, but I think it’s pretty applicable to everything.

I’m an English professor. I’m willing to overlook a lot of stuff in student papers as long as I can follow it to the basic point they’re making. Donnie’s not even at a level that understands the assignment, and he’s refusing to ask for help. I can assure you he’s not Pynchon, either — he doesn’t want the publicity.

I love Tearaway on Vita. Very creative use of all the handheld’s features (cameras, touch screen, rear touchpad, microphone, motion). The best bit is seeing your fingers bursting through the back and into the screen. The PS4 version of the game really shows how disappointing it is not to play on the Vita, even with vastly improved hardware.

Denies it like he denies the Holocaust
