Quote from odd man out: “I didn't rely on tax subsidies. I just paid some guy who guaranteed my kid would get into an elite university with on a sport scholarship, even though his academic and athletic abilities are crap. But it's a secret. Don't tell anyone. ” speaking of which, this latest scandal reminds me of a former boss who paid someone to get his daughter into a prestigious law school. she was later involved in some financial misdeeds and was disbarred. guess it runs in the family.

i don't get it, it's in the 70s daily and the leaves are falling like it was october. wonder if my neighbors would be pissed if i had my oaks processed into firewood?
