The BBC America channel is a cable network station that has the right to broadcast whatever shows it wants as long as they meet the FCC guidelines.

That's what everyone else called me. Except they left out the word "poor".

No, I left the combinations to the A-circuit locks outside. Missile silos have an A-Circuit locks, to which only the Security Police have the combo, and a B-Circuit lock, which opens the maintenance hatch, to which only maintenance guys have the combo. You have to open both the A-circuit and B-Circuit to get into the…

Oh, I can top that with the LOR I got at Minot AFB in 1993. I was the Security Police supervisor for a Minuteman III missile flight. I wanted a smoke, so I packed my Classified in an A3 bag, stepped outside the Launch Control Facility building and had a cigarette. Then I went back into my office, leaving all the…

He's actually driving it, tires smoking, looking back over his shoulder in a turn...and being filmed.

You know what else we'll never know? How many firearms the TSA missed.

Airbus officials will spend the whole day tomorrow trying to figure out how to get as much publicity for the A380 as the Boeing 777 got today.

The Aztek was discontinued so I went with the next best thing.

Here's the thing. Forget the wing. What I can't live with is a $40,000 car with such a shitty, plasticky interior. The best thing you can say about being inside a WRX STi is that it prevents you from seeing the exterior of the WRX STi.

As a lifelong Astros fan, now living in SoCal, I never cared at all about those silly American League teams, and never understood why they were so popular all across the country.

Yes, they do. But, since I am a transplant, my team's games are never blacked out. Win!

Well, I notice that with all your aggressive denials of diamond-polishing, you were suspiciously silent on the subject of emeralds.

Uh. Wow.

All of these things occured to me, which is why my original post allowed that these people might also be among the perpetually offended. A group that, by the way, is even more irksome, because they do get it, yet are still in the thrall of their outrage.

Actually, the joke did work, and it was brilliant satire. I don't even like Colbert but this was a brilliant segment.

I feel for this kid. I spent ten years carrying that rifle, wearing that uniform, and standing in that weather.

This just in: Politicians are greedy and corrupt. Film at 11.

Since it's St.Patrick's Day, everything everywhere is awash in green and, if it isn't the looming threat of a brutal pinching. Like pinch-the-enamel-off-your-teeth pinching. Which is why today is the perfect day to bring up a question I've long wondered about: what's with Alfas and four-leaf clovers?

I approve of this. Ladies should have a hot-looking little car available to them. Like when my chick bought a Mitsubishi Eclipse because it was a "sports car".

I'd never buy an Audi, because I drive an Elio. You've probably never heard of it.
