The cello work in Barenaked Ladies' The Flag is so soothing for such a sad song.

They are a better source than anything you've provided, yes.

You're right, Wikipedia is a terrible primary source, because it isn't a primary source. So, while you should never reference it in a paper or dissertation, the sources it references are perfectly valid. The good news is, I'm not writing an essay or dissertation, and I don't have to follow the correct rules for those. I did you the favor of clicking two links deeper (it took about a minute) and finding the information where they talk about all those cases that the judges totally threw so they could force you to pay illegal taxes. Now, I can't make you turn that link purple, but if you do you might get the other side of that argument that you apparently haven't stumbled across in your decades of examination. Good luck.

Sorry, saw your response just after I had posted the same in response to his comment.

There is no historical agreement that the earth is round, but guess what?

When the second argument that is listed in Wikipedia is that Ohio doesn't count when it had been a state for over a century before the amendment was proposed, I start to think these arguments are specious at best. It seems every judge the case had gone before agreed with that stance, which also sounds like historical agreement to me. Given the amendment was proposed due to the Supreme Court overturning income tax as unconstitutional, it also appears the courts were more than willing to rule against income tax prior to this supposedly dubious amendment.

Do you have any evidence that is stronger than the Obama birther conspiracies?

What do you mean by questionable circumstances?

Frankly, if you're looking at the morality of eating meat, this is as good a stance as any.

Space is almost free, and it's a good cue to what you're going to find. It's how I tell my PerfectDark posts apart.

This is legal in America, but not in Canada. As a father of 3 sons, I considered sex selection for a daughter.

Colossal was weird, but i liked it. I could see where people would be thinking, what is this and why am I watching it, but it felt like real life to me. For a movie about monster avatars unwittingly being controlled from half a world away, anyway.

I wouldn't say those are definitely the best lines in the movie, but probably top 5, definitely top 10.

Looks like we found someone who believed it was financially necessary for the manufacture of the shuttle to be spread across the country.

You can do better. Get a script to fill it out hundreds of times, and then distribute it to your friends. Imagine if all 15 million Albertans had their voice heard...

Depends how British you are? 🤔

FYI, in Canada and the UK, to table something means to give it attention or handle it, unlike in America where it means to set it aside.

I had a teacher mark my answer incorrect because I said women can have hemophilia. They said you can't because it's a sex-linked disease. I said sure, but what happens if you have two X chromosomes with that gene on it? Still didn't get the point. This was in the 80s, and I couldn't just look it up on the internet and prove how wrong they were.

Their navy does need to be enlarged...

You can see the fire right through her eyes.
