Bet against the Big Ten in any bowl game. If you had bet $200 on every game you'd be up $600 now.  |

I thought that you were going to talk about starting a new Amsterdam red light district in the US. Legalized drubs and prostitution would be a very natural and profitable business for ya.

Everything carries risk. there is no guarantee. The Big Ten will probably win at least 1 bowl game. and f you bet against the LIons for every game next year, simply because they lost out.. well, you're probably going to end up making money, but don't count on them going winless again.

You might want to look back and see what that meant. It was a religious colony out of the Netherlands. They were stricter than they are at an all girls Catholic school during lock down.

I wonder what Peter-Stuyvesant would have done to change the Catholic Marymount University's reputation as Mount Mattress and Mount Me Vernon? Convinced that rapid growth of non-Christian as well as non-reformed Christian churches would overrun the predominant church and endanger the stability of the young colonial society, director general and council sought to bolster the position of the Dutch Reformed Church by trying to reduce religious competition from denominations, such as Jews, Lutherans, Catholics and Quakers. However, religious plurality was already a legal-cultural tradition in New Netherland as it was in the motherland. The directors of the West India Company in Amsterdam, www.nationmaster.com/encyclopedia/Peter-Stuyvesant's superiors, overruled him in all matters of intolerance by reprimanding him and requiring him to revoke intolerant rulings which the director general and his council had taken, particularly the rather harsh measures against the Quakers, who were considered anarchistic agitators and a threat to the public order due to their non-conformist and vociferously proselytizing ways. This article or section does not cite any references or sources. ... The Lutheran movement is a group of denominations of Protestant Christianity by the original definition. ... -1... Jews were allowed to become legal residents on the basis of "reason and equity" in 1655 under Stuyvesant's rule, despite the initial objections of some members of the Dutch Reformed Church Council of which Stuyvesant was a member. www.nationmaster.com/encyclopedia/Peter-Stuyvesant |
