Addiction 2021.3

Notices
Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Ha, you're still evading the question. Obviously because the original response should be "No, we're not making an album recording for distribution to the public".

Your honor, I move to have the testimony of this hostile witness stricken from the record, and that the charge of contempt be considered.

Just because he's hostile doesn't mean he should be held in contempt.

Shameful. Are you telling me that if the powerful Addiction mod team suddenly packed up and moved out that this thread, much like Afganistan, would quickly be overrun by insurgents from the surrounding region?

If he goes into custody on Friday afternoon, he'll miss the 2:00 p.m. jail docket and sit until Monday court. Judge will release him on a PR bond then, but you've achieved the desired result.

Excellent. I have a few days to make arrangements to have a couple of our roughneck residents transferred to adjoining cells.

That's my favorite live album of all time. Recorded on New Years, so not a Christmas album...
