Well, I would counter this with a caution that you *should* be prepared for a multi-week trial. I went in my first time in NYC with the expectation that the case couldn't possibly be long - after all this is a hugely stressed court system in the city that invented the expression "badabing, badaboom" so surely I'd be…

I called my state senator after he voted against a gay marriage bill. The staffer was very polite and respectful, but I realized she thought I was gay (referring to gay people as "you guys"). I'm not, but I took the opportunity to lay it on a little thick, saying that "it's impossible to not take this personally."

Yeah, whoever dreamt this up has a potential bright future in marketing. As music it was pretty weak. Definitely needs more arranging skills - some legato countermelody / bassline action to make it more sustained and forceful, less cutesy.

Also, back in the day, I was able to "try before I <s>buy</s> bought" at J&R Music World, also in New York. I can still remember how clear the choice was for me — all the other headphones sounded like shit in comparison. Picked my speakers that way, too.

It's easy to make your own and freeze it, as well, so that you have an everlasting pesto brick. Since it's olive oil-based you can take it out and chop off a piece, dice it up, and watch it melt back to its original form.

On the subway I do find unnecessarily loud conversations to be very annoying. Especially when people sit across the aisle from each other and shout. This ain't your living room, people.

I think the key to the white vs. red study is that the subjects had no idea such a switcheroo was even possible. I mean, who ever heard of dyed wine? No wonder they had a hard time wrapping their brains around it.
