@vinod1978: A guy with a vested interest in US national security liaised with private companies asking them to suspend business with an individual known to be causing heavy security concerns in the US and abroad, and they did.

@vinod1978: What I think doesn't really matter. I try not to form opinions about things I have absolutely no information on. You let me know if you talk to Lieberman and he lets you in on the whole thing, though...

@stifflittlefinger: Interpol doesn't arrest anyone, they are not a police organization, they just share information and notices. It's Sweden which has arrested him. They just put out the red flag via interpol.

@pablofdzm: Well, it might just prove that private companies have thw ability to choose their associations and alter their practices at will. Paypal, Amazon, and the like don't have to wait until someone is prosecuted to cut off service. They're not the government. Ever seen a sign in a store or restaurant that…

@CallMeJordy265: Touch door with elbow. Few nerves in elbow. No hurt.

The Google Maps/GPS one doesn't compute with me. I find the wonderful free maps and navigator program to be one of the best features. The GPS on my Incredible has never taken more than a few seconds after activation to find my location, and I use it as a navigator all the time.

Black and white photography from 1989? Makin' me feel all old and stuff...

@Bizdady: It would be entrapment if the agent had initiated the act with a request for the service. The problem is that the guy was advertising this service. If the defendant intiated the transaction, it's not entrapment.

Verizon's going to be offering something which would otherwise be exactly what I wanted if they didn't lock it down to frustrating levels?

@A Magician Named Gob:

@Gramma42ton: As Doc would say, "You're not thinking fourth dimensionally!"

@economypear: You could play that little intro tinkling sound to me in my sleep and I'd pop up and yell "Great Scott!". That's how you know an excellent score, when it is forever stuck in your head.

@Flako_FigZ: D...d... dino... dropppings? Did you say...dino droppings?

@brianbeatdown: I use USAA, no branches, and having to buy something small I don;t want is equivalent to an ATM surcharge, which I refuse to pay.

I've gotten weird looks from people who see me check out an ATM before I use it for extra cameras and firmly grabbing and tugging on the card scanner.

@goatsitter: I'm pretty sure you get felt up less by TSA than you would riding a bus in Rome.

@TJungus: I think he was being sarcastic. He just for got his tag.

Take that, Apple!

@NeoTechni: I think Spoony would agree with me when I say it doesn't matter who you agree with, it's what you assume about someone based on their correlation with your beliefs. A smug person thinks less of those who disagree based solely on their disagreement without a care as to how or why they disagree.

@NeoTechni: I find the juxtaposition of judgementalism and sensitivity very hilarious. By all means, keep it comin'!
