Things I learned today (Part 1)

One and the same

Some man. A sound operator. Iā€™d wouldnā€™t like to be bouncing off him. Heā€™s not for budging.

A decent ref in both codes,however you can tell by how he wears his socks how lenient he will be. Down to his ankles and the game will like a KK training match.

Ha, thatā€™s gas, Iā€™d say he never hurled in his life. Quite a character, heā€™s mellowed somewhat thankfully.

The Amazon rainforest produces nearly 50% of the rain that falls in the region. Effectively, it produces the rain that makes it a rainforest. If enough of it is cut down, it will reach a tipping point whereby it will no longer produce enough rain to maintain the same climate in the region. If that happens, there wonā€™t be enough rain to sustain a rainforest (logically enough) and the whole ecosystem will break down.

It was, but didnā€™t one sell for a hundred million more recently?
Maybe it was just valued at that.

Women in the real world somehow donā€™t find the TFK compliment ā€œIā€™d have to be dug out of youā€ as flattering as I thought
