Yeah, it's mixed, because while the story and story missions are fantastic, there's too much filler inbetween . The way it works is there's 9 areas with a major storyline mission and 2 lieutenants. To open up each lieutenant you have to go around the district doing random filler missions (steal cash from this place, destroy their supplies, kill these enforcers, tail this car around, etc..).

That said, the story is fantastic, there's a lot of really good characters, and if you have ever wanted to drive around New Orleans blasting Fortunate Son, stopping only to chuck molotovs into white only diners, then buddy, this game is for you. Plus enemies have this in-between step where they're not dead, but they're counted as dead, so they're just rolling around moaning and screaming in agony and buddy, never have you wanted to empty shotguns into kneecaps more to see that happen.

The actual story missions are great as you do stuff like dose a party with LSD and burn a Klan leader on a cross.

Hows star fox 2? I have a retropie and that's the only thing that intrigues me

I have a pretty good version of Star Fox 2 on my retropie. It's basically all range mode from SF64 but with the original Star Fox graphics. And the over world matches that from Star Fox Assault for DS where you have to intercept an enemy then go into battle.

A few months ago I had to go to the emergency room and I finally got all of my bills back for it. I tore my calf and went to the emergency room, sat there for 3+ hours waiting, saw the doctor for maybe 10 minutes, he wrote me some prescriptions, gave me some cheap crutches and sent me on my way.


Use of emergency room - $350
Crutches - $250
Emergency physician charge - $1300

Total: $1900

Almost 2 grand to sit in an emergency room for a little more than three hours and to be told there's nothing we can do, here's some pain meds and some crutches. I have insurance and an HSA so I won't have to come out of pocket for anything but I hate thinking what it could have cost if there was something more that needed to be done, or if I didn't have insurance.

Doing some quick and possibly wrong math on this, but it looks like if you make the median US income you'll get about $200 extra.

Someone in the 1% receives over $30k.

I'd be pretty interested in an N64 classic since that's where retropie kind of falls short.

Edit: an N64 classic would probably miss a lot of good games because of disputes with Rare, sadly.

Yeah, I'm sure it's even worse. This was just from calculating what the take home pay would be for both groups without any deductions or anything like that, which is what I assume the report looked at.

Since you're the human encyclopedia, can you explain exactly how the estate tax works? From what I can gather they calculate a tax for the value of the estate since some investments aren't taxed until their liquidated. If that's right, how can people justify trying to abolish the tax?

There's a $5.45M per person exemption, plus a lifetime gift allowance (so you can give some of your estate to your heirs before you die), plus additional protections already on the books for farmers, plus a special farmers' payment plan that lets a working farm pay off an estate tax in installments over several years.

So basically
