My dentist office as a kid had arcade games, Popeye was one. Galaga, Hyper Dyne Side Arms, and Robotron were some of the others. Shit dentist but nice game selection

That was my point. You can abuse anything legal or not..

During prohibition, alcohol could be prescribed. This did not stop illegal distilleries from producing alcohol that had unsafe levels of byproducts which caused even worse health effects than alcohol would alone.

I do not see amphetamine/meth being legal to prescribe as an issue with my argument, as we are not talking about medicinal use. They are illegal to use recreationally, unlike alcohol, leading to all sorts of issues.

When you realize that Donkey Kong was originally Popeye everything all of a sudden makes sense! Bluto\Donkey Kong stealing Popeye's\Mario's girlfriend, Popeye\Mario all of a sudden becoming invincible when gets the spinach\hammer. All in all its a great translation of a popeye cartoon with the limited technology they had at the time.

>She suffered a fractured skull, two broken legs, three broken vertebrae, a fractured pelvis, several broken ribs and temporary paralysis below the waist.

Yeah, I imagine so.

Been there.

Only to join the United States, which would also outlaw slavery. Such bad luck!

Do pro athletes pay their own salary?

£1.29 per person means over £86,000,000 per year. It's not the biggest waste of public money, but it's still over 86 million going to one random family with no benefit to the rest of us.

I think both evolved in environments humans created.

That article about her life is a wild ride.

Well thank you, thats very nice of you to say!

Houston didn't reign in his troops at the final stages of San Jacinto because of all the Texian troops put to the sword at the Alamo & the lesser known Battle of Goliad.

Reading how she ended up on the flight then her complete loss of memory of the incident is wild. Worth a read!

I fixed it. Auto correct and commenting in the car.

Texians were Anglo-American residents of Mexican Texas and, later, the Republic of Texas. Today, the term is used to identify early settlers of Texas, especially those who supported the Texas Revolution. Mexican settlers of that era are referred to as Tejanos, and residents of modern Texas are known as Texans.

Somewhere in an alternate universe there's level 1-1 with spinach cans instead of mushrooms and Bowser is a black-hearted thicc boy.

The tourists that come to see Buckingham Palace won't stop coming just because the family that lives there moves out. They generate literally nothing to the economy.

Guglielmo Marconi is credited as the inventor of the Radio but Nicola Tesla created a working prototype years earlier but never patented it as it was just one part of a larger project he was working on. Marconi actually used some of Tesla's designs directly in his radio. So Nicola Tesla invented a "radio" used as prototype in his wireless power transmission experiment in 1893 while Marconi patented and presented his radio in 1895. Even though it was Tesla's designs and concept, one could argue that Marconi delivered the radio as an actual concept by using it to transmit and receive telegraphs.

Maybe so. I guess crossing it farther south becomes quite daunting. I lived in a suburb of St Paul for awhile so I know what the river looks like there. It makes sense that more crossings would be near the headwaters.

I counted 13 bridges across the Mississippi around Bemidji, a city of 15,000 in Minnesota.

It's also truer to the dreadful speculation of the result of a cancer screening. It's either going to be okay or ruin your day.
