[off topic?]

Back during the Watergate investigation, one of the witnesses let it slip out that President Nixon had a formal 'Enemies List.'

One of the dangerous foes was actor Paul Newman.

To be fair, Newman-O's are probably lethal for your figure in the long run!

This is one of my favorite stories.

Newman was an amateur race car driver. He brought a crappy looking old Volvo and had it modified so it could hit 150 mph. Racing tires, shocks, etc etc in a car that looked like grandma drove it.

He'd tool around Los Angeles and look for young street racers and challenge them.

There is an in-group and an outgroup.

Making people think they're in the in-group while they're actually in the outgroup means they can be fleeced without them noticing.

I'm surprised they still had a blank space
