Reply to comment by Flimsy-Lie-1471 in In Truth or Consequences, N.M., leaking pipes cause millions of gallons of water to go down the drain amid drought by Thetimmybaby
It's because the decision makers aren't engineers, they're bean counters looking to make a name for themselves as cost-cutters that'll be in and out long before the consequences of their decisions are made clear.

Pretty decent 90s indie film called this.

Reply to 'Iowa Mama Bear' pleads guilty to making false report of abuse against former counterpart by Celphi
Admitted serial liar should lose all credibility. Of course her anti mask campaign should have already done the trick. She joins long line of entitled paranoid repugs who form a professional victims club

The truth is, there are consequences for letting infrastructure run down like that.

I was told years ago by an environmental engineer that the return on investment on water pipe replacement is about eight years. This is why I have such a hard time understanding why I always see that its not affordable to repair the lines. New water lines have a 50 year minimum life expectancy (in reality much longer with maintenance).

I mean, Likud was founded by a fascist: Menachem Begin at least according to Albert Einstein.

"Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor."
Funny how little things like that get forgotten.

> It can usually be found beside, "I don't do drama" and "I just tell it like it is".
Don't forget anyone who lists "School of Hard Knocks" under education on Facebook.

B-1 is one of those planes that’s “supersonic” in that it’s definitely designed to go over Mach 1, but is not operated that way on a day to day basis. No point in wasting a ton of fuel to go a little bit faster on a training flight. Also that baby probably gets jostled around more in her daily commute than in that aircraft.

What's with the vagueness "one of the first"? Were there other pregnant women on the same plane?

(Which works out to a about 25l/s, or the equivalent of a small creek.)

Well that explains it. Something as powerful as a volcano really should have been implemented in C.

maybe, but having a failing system likely means they will be out sooner rather than later
