Only communists like The Beatles.

WTH?!?!?!?!?!?!? Well then, 99.99999% are pro-communist

hat is the difference between questions not worth their own threads and spam?

I'll give you an example. Spam: only communists like the beatles.

First to answer your question no, and now for mine. Does anyone here play Animal Crossing City Folk? If so when and where does the spaceship appear and what are the signs that it's near?

Why is it always called "base" cunning? Seems like a slightly higher form of devising solutions than others to me, at least.

There are a lot of economics blogs. I like Mankiw, Marginal Revolution, Krugman, and Calculated Risk for general stuff.

The range of development blogs is endless, and I don't feel like linking to all of them:
"Aid Watch blog" is from Prof. William Easterly at NYU, and focuses on international aid flows.
"Development Daily" focuses on microfinance.
"State of the Planet" is a blog by Jeff Sachs
"The Bottom Billion blog" is by Prof. Paul Collier, updates sporadically

For taxation and fiscal policy, the big ones are the OMB blog, CBO blog, and Tax Policy Center's Taxvox blog.

Another that mixes economics, cognitive science, and a bunch of other topics is Overcoming Bias.



That's a start...

Thanks, really appreciated.

Helen Keller was the first one I thought of.

When driving an automatic, do many people use their left foot to brake?

I've been told that's a bad habit. I sometimes see people driving around with their brake lights on, and I think that's what they are doing. It wears down the break pads.

 

[Ulyaoth]

I do find myself stomping on and off at the very left of the ground where in some cars there's like a little step to rest your foot on.

Anyone else not trust anyone else driving since they started driving? I find myself stomping my foot like I'm trying to brake whenever I'm riding with my mom or dad driving since they always tailgate people and then don't pay attention.

Virtually all the time. Works just fine.

Who else thinks it's strange that the Statue of Liberty is an American symbol, even though it was built in France? Or that apple pie and baseball are british, yet considered American?

P.S. USA! USA! USA!

 

[cardgame]

Statue of Liberty - not strange. It was a gift to us since (just about) its conception, just built in France for some reason. Not really sure why.

Apple Pie - Did not know that! thank you for enlightening me
Baseball - 100000000% American. You may be thinking of Cricket. >.>

 

[Ulyaoth]

Where the hell do you get the idea baseball is British?

 

[Bobbtjoe]

The only sport entirely invented in the USA is basketball. Baseball wasn't vary widely known in Britain, mostly because it was just a fad of kids and never became major there. But is was invented there. (either that or History channel lied) .


And I knew that about the statue of liberty, but it should be known that there are three Statues of Liberties, the other two being built long before the USA began.
