This is exactly how multiprocessing works in a computer.

Basically, that was Reagan's policy in 1981. Don't mention the illness and hope all the homos die. Above all, don't do anything medical to try to control the spread or find treatment during the crucial first years of an epidemic.

By 1984, when Mr. Mader wrote his book, it had dawned on the government that epidemics rarely stick to one social group. But rather than provide any kind of national leadership, the Reagan folks just added Haitians and drug addicts to the people to be blamed.

Yeah, Reagan had a thing or to to teach Fox about being a shitbag.

State legislatures are like sausage: you really don't know all the crap that's in there.

To be fair, there isn't a huge pool of talent in Wyoming. The state legislature makes up about 60% of the population.

Interesting to learn that legal contracts have the ability to evolve. Although that would explain a few things about my mortgage. And I am growing suspicious of my car title.

Actually, that looks to me like a correct use of effect as a verb (to bring about). Affect would be incorrect as it would refer to modifying a change that was already going to happen.

Although having said that, the whole sentence is completely disjointed.

For most Presidents, that would have been very close to the biggest stain on their record. For Ronnie, it has serious competition.
