I love how the suggested video at the end is "Introduction to pivot table" anyway, that's absolutely insane. The 3D engine seems to be laggy, on the video anyway, whereas this rollecoaster is pretty smooth !

Really ?? In Brooklyn, every time I try to get a sub without mayo, 50% of the time there is mayo. It drives me absolute-f-ly nuts. I really dislike mayo unless it's home made and with shrimps. But white industrial mayo in my sandwich,

And let's not forget that Napoleon comes right at after the French revolution. Everyone else was planning to invade France since it'd become so weak - the country was a mess. And somehow, Napoleon managed to bring it back to the s
