http://botetourtcitizens.blogspot.com/2010/01/reassessments.html
This is a place for the people of Botetourt County, Virginia to voice opinions, ask questions of their county government representatives, and express concerns within the local community. Wednesday, January 13, 2010. It's that time again: property values have been reassessed. I've spent some time today asking questions of our county government and the private contractor hired to do the assessments and I'd like to share what I learned.

Will Inter Dominate Again? You Decide! | KabCity
https://kabcity.wordpress.com/2011/06/26/will-inter-dominate-again-you-decide
Will Inter Dominate Again? Has shown (therefore it must be true) that beautiful people are happier and more successfull. Than average looking people. A notable case study that provides supporting evidence is the story of my beloved Inter.

Famously said (I assume everything he said is now famous):. Put your hand on a hot stove for a minute, and it seems like an hour. Sit with a pretty girl for an hour, and it seems like a minute. THAT’S relativity. I was reminded of this phrase recently while having the following conversation with two colleagues, Kennedy (a Catholic ex-seminarian from Kerala) and Ramakrishna (a Hindu from Tamil Nadu). R: You guys eat crazy things! Kennedy: But don’t you also eat some crazy things in Tamil Nadu? City: That&...
