      US government contractor arrested after NSA leak report
      http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-40168417

      So wait, they named their kid "Reality Winner"?

      If that's not setting your kid up for failure I don't know what is.

      No kidding.

          Is he checking she's voting for him, or making sure she doesn't write a note asking for help...?

          photoshopped or not that totally is what happened.

              There's a reason why it costs so much to drink here in America.

                    Drinking in Spain...

                    Walk to bar, drinks are $1, come with food

                    Drinking in US

                    Drive to bar because there is nothing walkable and no public transport
                    Drinks are $5, no food
                    Food is $12
                    Uber home for $10

                                      Liking to drive or not has nothing to do with the cost analysis of driving to flying or some other transport method.
