If I said something like that, Bank, I'd be accused of the ol' reverse mojo thing.

It is of course just wrong. The idea that immigration runs counter to the idea of America is breathtakingly ignorant of the very history of this country.
While this may be true, I do think it's important to add that for a very long time large amounts of Americans have been more in favor immigration as an idea, rather than a policy.

Now this is truly wonderful news. Like Reagan saying tear down that wall. Stop exporting terrorism and keeping your people locked up in a medieval shithole, Mr. Ayatollah.

There you are making a conjectural conclusion example that was never inferred by me. More lawyer double talk.
A double-talking lawyer would use "implied" not "inferred."

She doesn't start for a couple of weeks but is really looking forward to it. I'm not (though I'm happy for her).

I sent my first payment off to Ann Arbor the other day and I'm now supposed to hate OSU. So I'm staying out of this.

I think Kimbrel will be fine, but if he's not I don't necessarily think it's cause for despair. Remember in 2013 it took one closer's injury and a second's bout of ineffectiveness before the Sox lucked into Koji as a closer.

I'm not sure I said that proven good closers are available, but rather guys become good closers out of a sense of desperation all the time.

John Axford, a dreadful pitcher, had 46 saves one season. Finding a closer shouldn't be that hard.

I think the Red Sox have a lot of very good arms in the bullpen and in the event of a total meltdown by Kimbrel they can find somebody else to handle that role. I think the "traditional" closer role is probably the easiest role in baseball to fill on stop-gap basis.

On Sunday, Kid, because he knows things, and in yet another attempt to show me wrong for expressing my problems with the trade, noted what was just an okay inning pitched by Britton against the Red Sox with a rhetorical question as to who that pitcher was.
Is Kid going to ask the same question this morning?

Looks to whom?QuoteMost of those interviewed said they were not aware of any discrimination. However, some of the records recount the stories of black rental applicants who said they were told no apartments were available, while whites sent to check on the same apartments were offered leases.
The records, posted on the FBI's Freedom of Information Act website, include a 1974 interview with a former doorman at a Trump building in Brooklyn.
A supervisor "told me that if a black person came to 2650 Ocean Parkway and inquired about an apartment for rent, and he, that is [redacted] was not there at the time, that I should tell him that the rent was twice as much as it really was, in order that he could not afford the apartment," the ex-doorman said.
Just business decisions.
