I take few things for granted in spite of the fact that there are very few things I actually give a shit about...
My brother lives in No. Ireland and I go over as often as I can so I keep an eye on stuff over there. For instance - the Dollar/Pound conversion rate.
The British pound fell on Tuesday after reports UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson was seeking a hard line on Britain’s transition period after Brexit.
Sterling dropped as much as 0.7% to $1.3236, as its Friday’s 1-1/2-year peak of $1.3516 looked increasingly like a near-term peak following the massive relief rally after last week’s UK election. Last time I was there - in April - it was $ 1.55.
PM Boris Johnson’s revised Withdrawal Agreement Bill would require the United Kingdom to have arrangements to leave the European Union be in place by Dec. 31 next year, UK broadcaster ITV reported on Monday.
Britain - the 'UK' - HAS to get out of the EU. Who wants some lame ass jerkoffs in Brussels (of all places) telling you what you can and cannot do? Fuck them - Brexit the fuck outta there!

2 Las Vegas men plead guilty in massive illegal video streaming case
Two Las Vegas computer programmers have pleaded guilty in federal court in Virginia to charges stemming from illegal video streaming operations.
Federal prosecutors say 36-year-old Darryl Julius Polo, aka "djppimp," pleaded guilty Thursday to copyright infringement and money laundering charges while 40-year-old Luis Angel Villarino pleaded guilty Friday to conspiracy to commit copyright infringement.
The Justice Department said the Jetflicks and iSttreamItAll (ISIA) streaming operations involved subscription services that pirated entertainment and deprived copyright holders of millions of dollars.
According to a Justice Department statement, Polo admitted that one of the sites had about nearly 120,000 television episodes and nearly 11,000 movies and got the content from pirate sites through searches conducted around the clock.
"In fact, according to the plea agreement, ISIA had more content than Netflix, Hulu, Vudu and Amazon Prime, and Polo sent out emails to potential subscribers highlighting ISIA’s huge catalog of works and urging them to cancel those licensed services and subscribe to ISIA instead," the release said.
