Yep, you all know English is not my strength. Though I do take pride in often being asked what my primary language is.

No Quarter.

In battles where the side about to be victorious says the enemy will Receive no Quarter, it means prisoners would not be housed. Essentially all survivors would be killed.

Santa Anna offered No Quarter to those in the Alamo.
No Quarter was also the way the tribes played the game, which Whitey didn’t understand.

Sounds to me like the Robert in your story is soft and is going to be a sh*t manager for ever because he just isn't management material.

He needs to learn how to divert blame, deflect problems, gas light his peers, and god for bid have an accident already, he's making everyone else look bad.

He might even need to develop a drinking problem.

It’s in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. You’d have to physically work year around in an outdoor office.

Still want the link?

I've never seen the Rock. When I first moved out here and wanted visit some of the history that MA has to offer, I wanted visit it. After locals told me what it was and stuff... I have no urge to see a hunk of rock that is probably, mostly a fairy tale anyway.

If I want to see rocks up and in person, I'll go hiking in some of the local state parks

Did a class trip to Boston a lifetime ago. Saw the Rock, Old Ironsides, Salem Witch Museum and some stuff I don't recall currently. It was 7th grade and the kind of trip that leads you to believe the whole area is just one big museum

The tour of Old Ironsides (USS Constitution - the worlds oldest commissioned warship) I liked and would do again. There's not many of the tourist traps in the Boston area that I would recommend but this one would be one. Every year on the 4th they take it out for a "sail" in Boston Harbor and fire off a 21 gun salute.

Back in the day when younger, a coworker and I sailed his small (40 ft?) trimaran from Ipswitch, MA to Boston for the event. We made good time on a windy day but with wind... comes waves... was a bumpy ride. It was pretty cool couple of days.

Seen all that stuff when we lived in Needham (sp)? 7/8 years old. Also The house of seven gables? Thought it was all pretty cool. Able to see lots of things on weekends, unlike Texas where everything is so far away

Willy Wonka trivia.

Ernst Ziegler, who played Grandpa George, was nearly blind (from poison gas in World War I), so he was instructed to look for a red light to guide him when his character was meant to be looking in a certain direction.
