Here's an interview with Ron Stallworth, a black cop who infiltrated the Ku Klux Klan in the seventies.
Favourite quote: Fortunately the people I was dealing with weren’t the brightest bulbs in the socket.
The story is the basis of the new film, BlacKkKlansman.

Scratch that one off the bucket list
Maybe only fellow Americans will find your story funny

When I went down under a few years ago "mate" (also common on the forum) and other terms gave me a kick. I think I made one of my Aussie colleagues self-conscious about calling me "mate," but I loved it. It's so nautical. "Man" and "dude" have seemed so pedestrian since.
Very charming lot, as are their evictors.

After almost 2 years, it finally happened yesterday…
After having a conversation, an old Englishman looked me in the eyes and said "Cheerio!"
Definitely that's some sort of milestone in my life, lol!
My friends from the UK were visiting a couple of years ago. They were going to go for a swim, the husband announced he had his swimming boots on.

I finally got around to listening to most of the Dean Delray/ @Giles interview for Let Their Be Talk. Pretty good listen. I'm about 3/4 of the way done and will try to finish it tonight.

100% agreed, i really enjoy Deans Handmade Episodes, you need 1 Minute to realise that he is as much into that stuff as we all are. My Favortes are besides the one with Giles the Magnus Walker, Kiya Babzani and the Josh Warner ones, these guys have crazy life storys where no one tought they´ll end up where they are know.

30 here yesterday. Got up at 3am, started work at 5, went beershoping at 9, had two beers at 10, powernap at 12, now awaiting arrival of fresh box of beers.
If only it were 30C° colder, it would've been a great day…

My son's last day at daycare will be Aug. 6th. Our monthly daycare bills were about $1000 split between my ex and I – next month's bill is only $232, so $116 on my end. So relieved to not have to pay astronomical bills every month

Does that mean it's 100 degrees in the shade? Absolutely brutal
