I’m all for using the metric system, but I gotta say I think Fahrenheit is worth keeping around. Celsius is better in many situations, but when I’m talking about how cold/hot it is outside, having a system that’s based more around the temperatures we’re likely to experience makes sense.

Isn’t the car charger connector circular? Why can’t the charger be rotated 90 degrees?

Other states that allow carry on campus have not had issues. This is just a Chicken Little moment for the hysterical.

Premeditated mass murder with a rifle from an entrenched position : legal concealed carry of a pistol

The sad fact that seems to escape people is that banning guns does not actually stop anyone from bringing a gun on campus and shooting anyone. Almost every mass shooting has been in a gun free zone, so that tends to support what I’m saying. Unless you have armed guards and metal detectors at every entrance, no gun ban…

If we're lucky these Olympics will kill the IOC. Not that it won't be replaced with something equally corrupt, but still... there are dozens of locations that can host the Olympics right now, and they are ignored because either a country wants the prestige of the games to overshadow their lousy human rights records or…

No snark: This IS a cool story, bro.

I bet they’re all safer than a motorcycle with five people on it, which is realistically what these cars are competing with. Making the cars safer will make them more expensive, which will make more people stick with the motorcycles, which will make them less safe.

This is really not accurate at all. There is very coherent science behind them. The first drug administered, sodium thiopental, is the same drug that they use to euthanize animals. It’s an incredibly powerful barbiturate that’s also used for general anesthesia. The doses used for lethal injection would cause the…

And it would be better than the last two books.

Sanderson would finish this series in 2 and half weeks.

If you read the article, he doesn’t disagree with me. There is no pool of cash in a bank account to pay benefits. All there is is IOUs that the Treasury has promised to redeem. But the problem is, the budget is already under stress from rising entitlements and payments on the national debt. Paying SS back for the…

This was all interesting up until they said it was a ‘bad’ thing that no state has protected tattoo rights. The fuck? You want to have someone draw shit on you then you take your chances that people think you’re an idiot. Legally equating it with race or sexuality is simply retarded.
