If you're like me, you've often sat on a beach, feet in the sand, and looked out on the ocean wondering what was on the other side of that vast expanse of water. And if you're like me, you've never bothered to make the relatively limited effort required to actually answer that question.Thankfully, the Washington Post's Wonkblog staff has entertained similar musings, and has both the motivation, resources, and editorial freedom* to seek answers.
I'm pleased, now, to know that while I sit on the back porch of the Martha Wood cottage, pleasantly daydrunk, I'm looking across the Atlantic Ocean at a guy on the west coast of Spain. Cadiz, maybe. I assume he's tipsy on rioja, rather than Red Stripe.
* - We've got way too much editorial freedom, and we've got the resources, so I think we all know where the issue lies. Look at this global version of the map and we'll just ignore the elephant.

England is way the fuck up north.
To the King of the North!
Cadiz Nuts.

We're doing this one:

It will have a live scoreboard to eliminate any ambiguity as to who needs to drink when.
The "Republican Debate" is a douchebag's Shangri La.
Huckabee invoking science made me pass out.
Scott Walker's barber is a comedian.
Hi Gheorghies I'm live here at the days inn in swampy Williamsburg,Va. Our accommodations in Oyster, Va fell through so at midnight we jumped on a couple of $69 rooms. Watching Jon Stewart's finale and knocking back a few dales pale ales.
I guess the Princess Anne Motel was full? Or out of business?
There's no bus full of volleyball players at the Princess Anne.
My recommendation for your Friday morning is that you buy that new Dr. Dre album.
What's the etiquette when you blow it out in the downstairs bathroom, and the cute college-aged
sitter immediately arrives? Hypothetically speaking, of course.
Blame the boys, TR.
who takes a shit in the downstairs bathroom?
I would ask myself "What would Zeke Mowatt do?" and then do that.
I guess the stacked girl who manned the counter at the Princess Anne in 1995, and to whom I lustfully delivered a few meals on behalf of Paul's Deli, has moved on career-wise, making the venue less desirable.
Aldon Smith has played his last down as a 49er and possibly in the NFL.
Rob - when nature calls, it does so with varying senses of urgency.
you're a disgusting animal, tr.

charles pierce is a raging god of wrathful prose:
These people would drag their balls over six miles of broken glass just to listen to planet despoilers Charles and David Koch piss on the radio. But they're proud that they never took money from someone who was mean on Twitter to Rosie O'Donnell. What a thoroughgoing, catastrophic burlesque this entire political party is. It should be torn down and replaced by a good, honest brothel. Maybe Trump can subcontract out the job of building the lobby.

this makes me very happy, as i always imagined portugal to be across from the jersey shore. correct! of course, you've got to look or swim parallel to the latitude lines or you'll fuck this whole chart up . . .
tr, it's your house! you go where you want. but you could certainly give a surreptitious little head nod towards your wife and then make a disgusted face . . .
I'd take Dave's advice.
It's a standup move the 49ers made, and not all teams would do it. Frankly, there's not much incentive for teams to do this when another team will be willing to absorb the personnel risk and swoop in. Not a lot of teams will follow that example until all teams agree not to tolerate the off-the-field stuff. But oh wait, that would be considered 'collusion'...
Mayhugh - worth noting that Ray Rice is still out of the league. So we're seeing some discipline.
I doubt Aldon gets a chance w/ another team. Took Incognito over a year to get back into the league.
Ray Rice is out of the league because he averaged 3.1 you the season before he rendered his wife unconscious. If he was anywhere (comparatively speaking) as productive on the field as Aldon Smith has been recently he'd have had numerous offers this offseason.
Incognito doesn't compare to Smith's on field production recently either. I'll take a bet on Smith getting another shot.
hi, gheorghies! aldon smith is a 25 year-old, highly productive on-field menace. he's totally getting another shot if he wants one. won't even take a year.
Some of our readers did worse things to some of our writers than Incognito did to Jonathan Martin. Just sayin.
One of zcats, in one fell puke, just regurgitated a belly full of kibble onto my dining room rug, a leg of the table, and one of my loafers under said table. I'm now cleaning cat vomit on my way out the door to a tennis match. Is this good luck?
