He "learned more in those two years than in any other"; and certain etymologies continued to puzzle him for years, with many pages of notes written later on 'walrus' for a lecture at Leeds by PianoCharged
>what a lot of people don't realize
I mean that's fairly well known.

Im not quite sure why you're so hell bent on turning paedephilia and rape into a Republican/democrats issue. The world is far bigger than that.

What has old soppy bollocks done that warrants an assassination, and that would make the assassin a hero?

Reply to TIL that Vidal Sassoon (his real name) started styling women's hair in wartime London as a teenager, but he took a hiatus at age twenty to join the elite Israeli commando force known as the Palmach. by p38-lightning
I'm so confused by the need of the "his real name" part.

The parks would be used, as they have been before, for research and development. It has nothing to do with whether park audiences would actually buy the product. This has been going on for the entire history of Disney parks (and Universal).

>Ironically the theme parks are why I doubt Apple would want Disney
Theme parks have long been a place to test out and debut emerging technologies. A chain of theme parks would be the perfect thing for Apple to purchase.
I'm really intrigued, why do you believe that that would be something that would turn Apple away from a merger?

Did he follow it up with several jokes about how crazy it is to be stoned?

Reply to comment by mqudsi in TIL When soul legend Wilson Picket recorded his iconic version of "Mustang Sally," he & his band rushed to hear the playback. The tape machine broke, cutting the tape into 30-40 tiny pieces. The engineer Tom Dowd carefully spliced them all back together, & that's the famous album version by wowbobwow
Splicing isn't all that difficult.
