Ummm... yeah, I meant my own! I mean, why would anyone sleep on someone else's hair, right? [nervous laughter] right?

Yeah, pooched that sentence, didn't I?

I have found that it helps me to never sleep on hair without washing it first that has accumulated pollen over the course of the day. My theory being that the pollen ends up on the pillow, which I then mash into my face over the course of the night.

Look, if you wish to remain willfully ignorant and intellectually lazy, then fine. But theft by any definition is not the same as infringement and using that term actually undermines any argument you have as well as prevents any collective understanding of the problem of infringement and how to solve it.

It's also lazy to call it theft. It is copyright infringement. They are two very different things. Theft deprives the owner of the use of a scarce good. Copyright infringement doesn't deprive the original owner of the use of the original, non-scarce digital good.

Good point. And I feel like all the parenting "advice" we get from books, the media, seems to imply that changes should be immediate or near-immediate. Maybe that's true for some, but definitely not my first two.

I have three boys and did spank sometimes with the first two. My observations are thus:

Touche! Maybe you have a future in General Management...

You would think so, but there would be an awful lot of incentive to not do that: a) opposing teams would learn very quickly what to expect in terms of where those players would line up, and b) if my general manager was telling me where to line my players up, as a coach, I'd tell him to eff-off. Unless where they line…

That's a good suggestion and maybe would work better than my current bodged setup. I use a shop vac and connect it to whatever I'm using at the time. In terms of what I work on—its all over the place, furniture, home improvement, pinewood derby cars, etc.

And clearly made from gold and platinum nuggets given the price.

I have a pegboard in my workshop with a frame around it so I can hang clear plastic over it. It isn't a great solution, but this would suffer from the same problem—endless cleaning of sawdust from the tools. I would love to see some ideas on how to build something like this in a manner that would minimize exposure…

I've owned two laser printers over the course of 15 years and probably replaced the toner cartridge one or two times in each. Contrast that with my inkjets? Probably 5 or 6 inkjets and far more regular ink replacement.

Exactly—while certainly only a single example, the Passat I owned pwned me. Never again. Above average expensive to begin with and problems and high repair costs later.

So wait, you are using a case where there were monumental lapses of judgment across the board by government staff to advocate for an ability to use judgment on a case-by-case basis? That doesn't seem problematic to you?

Well, if we're going to scrutinize 7 out of the 5,477 yards, does that mean every yard of all of the previous record-holders has been equally scrutinized to see if any of them were ruled/stat-lined incorrectly?

There aren't any, really. You can view a full size map on it and use it to navigate as well as a few other selection screens, but it isn't fundamental to the gameplay. You can also play on the gamepad alone instead of the tv, which sometimes makes the two player mode nicer because it removes the split screen.

I agree with you mostly, but part of the problem is also the speed at which bicyclists often go on certain pathways. Saying "on your left" while weaving in and out of a path crowded with pedestrians misses the point. The bikers should be going slower.

Fair point.

And yet, as this Deadspin post shows, there is still a great deal of confusion about who said what and in what context. So the point is that what one person believes is the context and then judges someone else based on, may be (and often is incorrect).
