"Such filth! even worse than other filth I saw before. Shameful!" ...but not so shameful that he didn't return three weeks later and buy it: February 8, 1668 posted:...to my bookseller's, and there stayed an hour and bought that idle, roguish book, L'escholle des Filles, which I have bought in plain binding (avoiding the buying of it better bound) because I resolve, as soon as I have read it, to burn it, that it may not stand in the list of my books, nor among them, to disgrace them if it should be found. February 9, 1668 posted:Up, and in my office all the morning, doing business and also reading a little of L'escholle des Filles, which is a mighty lewd book, but yet not amiss for a sober man once to read over to inform himself in the villainy of the world. oh sure, it's ok for you to read it now. see if you can work out the secret fake spanish/french/latin he uses as code throughout the diary to hide some of his actions. hint:  later the same night posted:...to my chamber, where I did read through L'escholle de Filles a lewd book, but what doth me no wrong to read for information sake but it did hazer my prick para stand all the while, and una vez to decharge; and after I had done, I burned it, that it might not be among my books to my shame; and so at night to supper and then to bed.

Because of the title, it has been viewed as an amusing case and has notoriety in American legal circles for suggesting that the United States sued cardboard boxes with clacker balls. It was one of three cases mentioned in the television show Last Week Tonight with John Oliver's civil forfeiture episode, alongside United States v. $124,700 in U.S. Currency and United States v. Approximately 64,695 Pounds of Shark Fins.

Sweevo posted:they really are. he wrote them just to have his own record of things and his thoughts, with no expectation that it would be significant to anyone else. so it's mainly his true unguarded thoughts rather than a carefully curated sanitised version. he'll talk about historical events but then complain about having to leave early to take a piss, or just fill pages about staying up late getting drunk, or how his mistress gave him a handjob. and of course about the time he found a pornographic book for sale: I'd love it if I asked for a book and they asked me how I'd like it bound

there were still some uncut books in my parents shelves when i began reading in earnest. i remember it was kind of awe-inspiring to cut every 2nd pages apart as i was reading. feels like untread ground, even though the book in abstract has been read by thousands before me, this copy has not been read by anyone, i am the first to physically read it. very 12 year old brained also it was kinda badass to have a use for a letter knife

The plan would be that the customers would be too embarrassed to cash in a cheque showing the company's real name ("The Anal Sex And Fetish Pornography Company"), not wanting other persons to know about their private lives, so the cheques would never be cashed, and thus the scammers running the company got to keep the money. (The authors of snopes.com have pointed out that customers could cash the cheques via ATM or mail and thus avoid having to confront a bank worker in person. This would not have prevented, however, the cheque description potentially appearing on their customer file.)

A hypothetically almost perfect antipodal flight would be Tangier Ibn Battouta Airport, Morocco (IATA: TNG), to Whangarei Aerodrome, New Zealand (IATA: WRE), whose designated locators are 10,800 nautical miles (20,002 km) apart,[37] almost the maximum possible distance. However, with only a length of 3,599 ft (1,097 m), Whangarei's runway is too short to accommodate any current (as of 2015) commercial jet airliner, especially one with the required range. Traveling between them would currently need at least two plane changes.

All the Dinosaucers have a button on the front of their uniforms which instantly devolves them to their primitive ancestors dinosaur state, while retaining their intelligence and speech capacity. This special ability is called Dinovolving and initially appeared to be a significant element of the series, as both Allo and Bronto Thunder Dinovolved in the first episode. Despite the apparent technological advantage, most of the later episodes did not feature any Dinovolving.

Archibald spent three years with a highly endangered Whooping crane named Tex, acting as a male crane – walking, calling, dancing – to shift her into reproductive condition. Through his dedication and the use of artificial insemination, Tex eventually laid a fertile egg which hatched a chick named Gee Whiz.[11][12]

Keely also claimed to have achieved pressures of 50,000 psi, and that he had broken all his pressure gauges. When Zalinski produced a pressure gauge he had brought with him - capable of registering 10,000 psi - and offered it to Keely, saying "I would like to have you put it on, and break it for me", Keely was momentarily lost for words before saying, "I do not believe in pressure gauges, anyhow."
