    That's awesome. I'd love to see it with more granular gradations.

    It's really interesting to see visual evidence of how much faster sea travel was than land, reflected in the shapes of the contour lines in Africa (especially the Indian Ocean coast) and South America (especially the Pacific coast).

    Corrupt as fuck? Possibly.

    But the NYPD itself isn't exactly a shining beacon of integrity. I'm guessing the new mayor is in desperate need of an ally within the NYPD if he wants to accomplish any sort of meaningful cleanup or reform, someone who'll answer to the mayors office instead of the police union. :clyde:

    True, but ... surely in a city of 8.4 million people, there are candidates who fit the bill and aren't the mayor's brother.

    It's a common problem, it seems.

    Who can't be convinced to switch loyalties, either with bribes or threats? Maybe. Maybe not. I imagine it's the closest the new mayor can get to actually appointing himself to the position.

    I'll reserve judgment until it's shown this guy is considerably worse at the job than his predecessors. :clyde:

    Nothing really, Willie Nelson has always been a good guy but some conservatives just found that out and are upset by it

    Wait until they find out Donald Trump is a coke snorting, 3 times divorced, SCAT fan, who likes expensive hookers, cheats on his taxes, loves russia and it's manly leaders, and worships golden idols while taking money from the poor.

    Beat me to it. Most trump supporting celebrities were just as against the war in Vietnam as the Liberals were.

    Also, Johnny Cash did some flip-flopping after 2001. He was pro-Native American and pro-diversity and antiestablishment back in the 60s and 70s. But, once BLM and Obama were in the media, well, like all other rednecks, decided black people were gettin' too uppity.
