In Russia, Fallout beats you.

They have not. Powell has tentative plans to visit next week but with Stanford offering he gone. Pigrome and Wells are trying to reschedule . Fox and Character were stretches haven't heard anything regarding them. Pidgreon is the big unknown and the biggest immediate impact left on the board

I mean, when the tour website openly states we are an adventure tour operator that provides "budget tours to destinations your mother would rather you stayed away from". you have to know its a bad idea at a certain level.

But hey, their FAQ page says the following:

How safe is it?

Extremely safe! Despite what you may hear, North Korea is probably one of the safest places on Earth to visit. Tourism is very welcomed in North Korea, thus tourists are cherished and well taken care of. We have never felt suspicious or threatened at any time. In fact, North Korean's are super friendly and accommodating, if you let them into your world. Even during tense political moments tourism to the DPRK is never affected.

I hated Vasquez with a burning passion

Yeah one of my favorite events as well. That building was deafening the entire game. Really showed the potential Cassell does have to be a brutally intimidating arena. Unfortunately, we just don't have the following in basketball, yet to really make that happen. That's a stadium that could be deafening from start to finish just by packing it in every night, which is a shame when you see it half filled at best on most nights.

for me, it's simplicity. i get in the car and the radio is on. no need to sync/login/change apps (going from music to talk), etc. i just get in and drive and the radio works. i can use my steering wheel controls to do everything i need to do related to my radio. i think as people get into their 30s and 40s, paying for convenience and simplifying their already hectic lives is an easier and easier decision. just my $.02

2 years ago we got snow. For 3 days the road wasn't cleared on our neighborhood.
The man that lives across the street from me was a quadrapalegic. The local ambulance crew normally needed to come about once a week.

A guy from the neighborhood had a plow so we all pitched in and cleared the roads.

2 days later a plow came through for the first time. A couple hours later a foreman came from the county. He told us that if we did it again, he would would have the cops come and make arrests. Apparent,y it is not legal to self plow the streets.

We told him that his crews didn't come and it was a hazard for ambulances and if he wanted to plow it, he needed to get it done. If they delayed that long again, we would document it and present it to the county attorney and the council and the paper.

Next time it snowed a decent amount, a plow came though that evening. At about 40 mph and his plow in the air. I went outside to shake my head in amazement and he came back doing the same. I filmed it with my phone.and sent the film to the county attorney, who happens to be a friend and I had relayed the story. See, the trucks now have GPS trackers so they know where the trucks had been.

You know a plow came back next morning and did an excellent job.

First, if you're a citizen from any Western country, especially the US, AVOID NORTH KOREA. This country is led by a guy who has zero qualms with brutally killing off his advisers and associates, and those are the people he likes. He hates us. Why even take that chance?

Secondly, is there more a fitting description on how we all deal with UVa students than "tolerated"?

Even UVA students don't deserve to be in the gulags of North Korea.

Debatable.

Just kidding, hope this kid comes back safe and sound.

Nice to see all these 2017 offers going out but I am still curious about the class being signed in 2 weeks...

Eh, it's more their leadership. The people aren't necessarily bad, they are just misled.

If there was ever a country I'd be okay with just wiping off the face of the planet, is North Korea.
