Didn't. Find. Jack.

I’m so angry at myself for laughing out loud at that. Still isn’t going to stop me from trying these in the future.
 
Was the drunk guy trying to get bubbles to do the character? Or was the drunk guy trying to do the charterer himself? The latter is even more offensive.

All this blue is making me feel really uncomfortable
 
Also @Jack V Savage or @Gandhi or anyone else knowledgeable - if you could choose one book to answer the question "why is economic growth so important?" which would it be? Mind making a recommendation? Imagine the question coming up in a conversation with an environmentalist who conflates economic growth with accelerated climate change, for example.

I've got an Maclean's article with like 20 references, but all of them seem not to hit the conceptual nail on the head. I've also got "Why Nations Fail" and "The Moral Consequences of Economic Growth" already, but somehow they aren't scratching the technical itch.

hmmm I feel I could write 20 paragraph post on the topic but can’t give you one single book reference of hand, sorry. I guess my knowledge comes from education, many different books that skirt around the issue, as well as certain forms of media, and even some of the varied views that come up here, from Marxism to geolibertarianism.

I will think on it though, JVS will have some good recommendations.

Gandhilf the Grey, what are you 60 years old now?
 
Usually given to someone who welches on a bet in heavies or Mayberry. Sara is a girl so my guess is she just requested it.
It was a gift, so was the belt
