Then I'd have to move, none of those companies are in my area. Just like any other company though, Boeing has it's pro's and cons.

I don't have a non-compete, but I have access to proprietary information that I wouldn't be able to divulge to our competitors...………..legally! Ha!

^^ The VS show is a relic of a bygone era when porn wasn't as readily available as it is now. Getting the catalogs sent to your house as junk mail led me to many a pleasant afternoon in the early 2000s. Today, I wouldn't even be able to name a VS model.

Looks like the market agrees.

Just about every single newspaper, internet news site and TV show says that Jeffrey Epstein was a paedophile.

He wasn’t.

I don't think they know the difference, paedophile is too easily branded around.

It’s an indescribably horrendous thing to label someone as when they’re not that at all.

He was an ephebophile. One who has a sexual interest in mid teen girls, usually aged between 15 and 19. Also a bit of a pervert who liked to hide cameras about the place.

But not a paedophile.

What's the difference then? I thought it was just if they were under age, which over here is 17.

It seems the press have just jumped on the notion of guilt by association, despite the fact that there is really not much concrete evidence for HRH doing anything wrong aside of some yankee tart's claims.

It's sad nowadays that the whole notion of "innocent until proven guilty" has given way to hysteria and money protection.

And he’s accused of having sex with a 17 year old girl who along with a bunch of other teenage girls liked to live the high life and travel the world in Epstein’s entourage, drinking champagne, staying in flash hotels, on yachts, given bundles of cash to buy themselves things.

Don’t see the big deal really.

He’s done nothing wrong in my opinion.
