As for boxing and wrestling in particular I have no idea. But I'd just point out wearing a well fitting suit of fine clothes is its own reward. Even if you just get thrift store hand me downs, tailoring is surprisingly affordable. Few things feel as good as a well cut suit!

Edit: Lol everyone hating on a tux!?!?

The light of the world went with Hambre. RIP

Lol right? Although maybe the landowners still wake up in a cold sweat having dreamt of Cromwell.

Aviation peaked with the Spruce Goose, AKA the Birch Bitch, AKA the H-4 Hercules. Been downhill ever since....

A lot of these mobsters were trying to diversify into legitimate businesses. Just like Reno and Las Vegas, a lot of these mobsters invested in gambling resorts in Cuba.

When communism came, not only did they have investments that wanted recouping, they had valuable contacts on the ground and firsthand knowledge of the area. So the c.i.a. and these mobsters had common interest and things they could do for one another.

As to how they got in touch? I don't think they were hard to find. Hard to prosecute maybe, but by and large they were known.

Even today there are descendants that still claim they're owed reparations from the Cuban government.

 

The wiki says it was transferred to Europe via the middle east. It seems obvious the Arabic numerals we use today are so much easier to work with than Roman numerals.

Was there a noticeable uptick in trade simply because bookkeeping became so much easier? Was there a noticeable uptick in the complexity and pervasiveness of monied, as opposed to in kind, daily trade in all levels of society?

It seems like the humble zero hit the scene and next thing you know the Renaissance is getting under way.

Lol I forgot all about it till just now! I had an almost out of body trip into memory. Shitty living room, shitty weed, off brand cigarettes, one of those flat screen CRT monstrosities that was top of the line at the time. Downloading what we hoped was family guy 2kb a min. The good ol days.

Fuck!!! Can we stop wrecking the planet for like 15mins? This may be the most tedious extinction event yet. At least with a comet you get a good show and it's over relatively quickly. Fucking dinosaurs don't know how good they got it.

 

I left this pic in a comment on another post, but she's so cute I figured it deserved its own post.

 

It starts getting warm and she wants in and out dozens of times a day.

She had to get shaved after a tree sap incident.

 

Her fur was getting too clumped up. Think she got into some tree sap or something.
