If the Hollywood police department has enough funds to send officers to monitor lone men in jerk-off booths, it needs its budget redistributed to needier precincts.

You got there before me.

Definitely one of the Feats of Strength.

Why? I mean, just because we can, do we have to have devices that will do these things? Apparently, the next great leap forward for man is going to be a consumer device that will help us spend more money. And no, I'm far from a Luddite. Think bigger, people.

If we're going to apportion blame, Mr. Dobson, we can blame you for teenage suicide, spousal abuse, gun proliferation, the increasing irrelevancy of organized religion.

Thanks, now I'll have that theme song in my head the rest of the day. Or until The Hobbit starts.

"(Besides, gills are much more practical.)"
