    Also, forget about the massive amount of puts that were purchased against the only two airlines involved in the hijackings just days before the attack.

    Oh, and forget about the fact that the building owner profited $300 million by purchasing an exorbitant insurance package after buying the building only nine months before.

    Also, definitely forget that Building 7 and the section of the Pentagon that was targeted were housing all the personnel and evidence involved in the biggest financial crimes investigation of the century.

    It’s possible and common to be happily married and in a healthy relationship with someone you love deeply and who also gets on your nerves sometimes for very specific, but also very human behavior.

    Loving someone means loving all of that person, flaws included. We accept the little annoyances because overall, that person adds more to your life than they take away. Acknowledging this fact of human relationships is one way to embrace those flaws, and thus, that person.





  • Ask New York City. It’s expensive af every time a change needs to be made underground because you have to dig everything up, and once you’re down there, it’s just a nest of wires in conduit so knowing which one you’re supposed to work on can be a challenge.

    Underground wires have to be insulated to prevent short circuits to ground. The longer a wire needs to go, and the more power it needs to carry, the thicker it needs to be. Since insulation goes around the outside, this increases exponentially and the cable quickly becomes mostly insulation in many cases, which is expensive and inefficient.

    Also, there’s only so much ground you can dig up before you hit bedrock. So, in some cases, power infrastructure expansion is limited because there’s nowhere to bury the wires.

    In many places it’s easier to let the damage happen and repair it cheaply.

    Bin Laden fathered 24 children, the first of which was with his first cousin when she was 16 and he was 17. They went on to have ten more children. The other 13 were spread amongst five other wives. They also found several beheading videos on his computer. He also believed muslims should kill any US civilians they find until the US withdraws support for Israel.

    I think definitely killing and maybe molestation would be on the table.
