@Dunny0: An even better game than "Fuck! A Crocodile!"

@Burke: The Shawshark Redemption

Wait, you want to call that "Androzani" claptrap the greatest cliffhanger and yet you can't see all the great cliffhangers in the Pertwee years? What about every episode of "Day of the Daleks"? What about episode one of "The Sea Devils"? Most of "Planet of the Daleks"? What about "The Time Warrior" or "Planet of…

@92BuickLeSabre: Oh, the eight iPod nano owner thinks of you.

@SQLGuru: Or those who get impatient waiting to see if a decent Android tablet is going to come out. Or those who see their family members get them and become jealous. Or those who hear about a new killer app and have to get one. Or those whose birthdays haven't come around yet.

@iDestroySteveJobsWithChocolate: That wasn't aliens. It was a woman.

@AfroJezeBella: He was captain of the Enterprise before Kirk.

@ret3: Section, yes. Thanks. I had to google "cut a dash" to get a translation. Good call.

I get most of it, but... can anyone help with stanza 5, line 1 and stanza 6, line 4? I don't get what the blank is supposed to be nor what the weird character even is.

@Arggh! there goes a...snake a snake!: I'd add a fourth camp to that: People who can't tell the difference, but pretend they can and act snobbish about their expensive earbuds even though they'd never pass a blind taste test.

@dallasmay: Yawn. And Apple copied Xerox. And... what year is this again? Why are we still repeating these ancient arguments?

@Fauxcused: Yeah, that's the big fall read for me. I'd like to see him having the high profile he had in the early eighties, but I guess there's not much chance of that.

@Captain_Tripps: I bet we can agree that we're not in favour of child abuse or neglect and that we frown on Nazis.

@Captain_Tripps: Agreed on your last point, but it's the only point of comparison I can think of. Sending your very young children to another family for a year is roughly analogous to fostering (only probably worse) so my guess is it would prove to be roughly analogous (only probably worse).

@Captain_Tripps: Citation? That's never the way I've read the data. Any numbers I've read suggest that the rates of abuse in foster/adoption/residential care situations are anywhere from five to eight times the rate of those in the general population. I'm not saying abuse doesn't happen in the general population;…

@Kinowolf: But the winters suck. And last I heard, Canada is chock full of Bieber.

@Hahaue: Well it's certainly not because of Stephen Harper. But everything else rocks.

You're reporting this rather oddly. With a "potential net migration index" of only +60, I wouldn't put the US as a "big gainer" when compared to, say the countries in the top five, whose numbers range from +150 to +219. It's fourteenth on a list of only thirty-four countries with positive scores, just about…

@kleer001: It's not worry about traveling abroad. It's worry about sending children willy-nilly to strangers. Are you aware of the rates of abuse in fostered families? Sheltered upbringing much? I mean, it was a fun idea until you think about it...

@kleer001: Um, I don't want to knock impractical fantasy ideas around too much, but have you considered how much abuse, neglect and molestation would occur in that year? Y'know, because when people are cared for by non-family, that stuff goes up? And what about the brainwashing? Because I'm not letting my kids into…
