There are some Rays fans down here, to be fair... (Not me, mind you: my gig is college football and NBA.) Unfortunately for the Rays, what's supposed to be their fanbase is widely spread out, and the closest residents to the Trop are the ones most likely to be transplants from up north.

The both of you: get an E39 M5. I fell for it when it first debuted in '99, and Star only reinforced my desire. I picked mine up (CPO) in 2006 and it has held a revered place in my garage ever since. Black on black, the aluminum (actually: silver plastic) trim, dark tinted windows.

Yes Google, please do continue to support iOS. I use Google maps religiously—Street View included—and what I've seen of Apple's replacement has not impressed me in the least.

I like it. He didn't go all boy-racer, F&F stupid with external mods—it's all pretty tasteful—and it's got a clean heart transplant. As long as the interior isn't a complete basketcase and falling apart, why not rock this as a fun little daily driver? It'll probably be pretty reliable, easy to fix when it's not,…

I am okay with vigilante justice in my name in lieu of an arrest record that may never happen depending on any number of circumstances or legal technicalities, and which only follows a perp for life under ideal coordination by a combination of imperfect government entities, and which even then does nothing to…

Believe me, they're not.

Megan's Law has some serious issues that need addressing. I relate the story my mother, an Human Resources director at a 400-person company, once told me:

Corporate charity is horrible, is it? Tell that to cancer survivors and their families, surely many of whom owe their lives to a corporate donation.

I fail to see what's "ignorant" about it, semantically speaking. Jobs's opposition to charitable giving was well-documented. Perhaps you refer to the possibility that Jobs chose to donate privately; however we have no evidence to suggest such a philanthropic M.O., and plenty more to suggest the opposite. It's not…

Ask my girlfriend which way is more comfortable to hold our iPad, and I guarantee she'll answer "Portrat". It's natural (for her along with many others no doubt, perhaps yourself included) to hold the thing from the side. Holding from the side in landscape moves the center of mass further from her dainty little…

Not to speak ill of the dead, but **** Steve Jobs.

Repeating what FORD said: that's a myth. Pure myth, and spreading it around will only lead to life imitating the urban legend.

What an asshat driver; such a shame he took out innocent parties in the process.

I agree with you. It doesn't matter what the specific descriptors in question are: if a third party describes you as something you're not, it will tarnish people's perception of you. Such incidents give people a reason to wonder if you're trustworthy, if you're hiding something else, speculate on why you never…

Well said!

$3,800 and probably made out of the cheapest (if snazziest-looking) 430 stainless money can buy, thereby ensuring it becomes a very expensive cube of corrosion within mere years.

To clarify: I did not point out the vast difference betwixt our education and social standing. I pointed out that people often presume certain things regarding our union based on their perception of the difference, judging by my first-hand interactions with said individuals. Those are two distinctly separate…

I'm a white guy engaged to an Asian woman, but we didn't get together because of Asiaphilia: she is a gorgeous woman who caught my eye independent of her race, and it turns out she's a lovely person on the inside too (and definitely not demure or submissive). However we have to dispel misconceptions about my assumed…

Jesus friggin' lord... Cool story and all, but would it kill you guys to correct the litany of grammar issues before reposting here?

Am I really the first to mention McQueen's slightly dinged up '68 Mustang from Bullitt? Say it ain't so!
