50-year mortgages also have higher interest rates compared to standard 30- and 15-year mortgages. If you add a percentage point or so and then stretch interest payments out over 50 years, you end up paying a helluva lot more in total interest on the loan.

A friend of mine went to Mt. Holyoke, said there were a sh!t-ton of 4-year lesbians. Plenty had girlfriends during undergrad but never looked back after graduation.

Yeah, don’t go to Bogotá.

I think there is a helluva difference between 2 discreet men (I assume you weren’t wearing just jockstraps or black leather pants with the butt cut out) checking into a hotel room and a 1,900-passenger cruise ship screaming “gay! Gay!! GAY!!!” I read that the ports that rejected the Virgin Voyages Scarlet Lady and its 1,900 LGBT passengers were Kusadasi and Instanbul, Turkey, and Alexandria, Egypt. @Luv2play, where did you read Hungary?

Fery has an interesting background. His mother is a former professional tennis player. His father is French and très riche: net worth around £275 million. An ass like that and family money?

Arthur Fery, a 5’9” British wild card (which means his ranking was too low for direct entry) who has reached the semifinals of Wimbledon.

The Argentina-Egypt match is the first soccer match I’ve ever watched, and it was a helluva good time. Fortunately, I was watching with a Spanish friend who gave me lots of insights into the players, strategies, rules, etc. Wow, was that exciting! I kept thinking of how rabid Argentine fans are and kept imagining the nation’s growing anxiety during the first ~80 minutes. Then badabing badaboom, Argentina scores 3 goals in like 12 minutes, Messi is crying on the pitch, and the fútbol-crazed nation snatches victory from the jaws of defeat. I also discovered my new sports crush, the fatally handsome Mohamed Salah ❤️❤️❤️

To be clear, I am not laughing at whether Gauff will win Wimbledon because she certainly could, just cracking up that you might have jinxed her, also a very real possibility.

I barely noticed the 4th of July when I was out of the country last year, but this year I’m a bit sad that I’m missing all the festivities. Happy 250th, America! I should *fingerscrossed* be in the US for the next July 4th, but being there to celebrate 251 years as a nation just doesn’t have the same ring to it. To all my fellow Americans on the board, Happy Independence Day!!

He’s aging nicely. I think he’s handsomer now than in his prettyboy youth.

A grizzly can hit 35mph in a short sprint. Usain Bolt at his fastest reached 28mph, and he is light-years faster than I am. Thanks for the tip about triggering a chase response, because I know there is no way I’ll ever outrun a grizzly.

Now that La Sagrada Família is officially open as a functioning church and not just a construction site that allowed visitors, they may have changed the prices. But when I was there at the end of November last year, the least expensive entry fee was 26€ ($29.61 at today’s FX rate).
