Holy shit, she's holding the phone in landscape!

Finally, a use for Crocs.

What, no knittin' needles?

Would you care to offer any suggestions of other countries who would "step up and play world police"?

Technically, they would have some authority to enforce it. If they did find anyone to have fucked with their moon business, they could disallow use of NASA resources to the horrible bastards who did this to them. It would only be a slight setback and might not affect everyone, but if we're to consider a potential…

Presidents don't really have much say, either. It's either sign the budget, or sign the same budget with a happy little puppy drawn on it.

Exactly the point I was going for. Thank you for the further detail :)

Nothing seemed weird about it to me.

That's exactly right. You can have all the waivers you want, but if you're found to have been negligent and someone is injured (or goes splat) as a result you're generally getting fucked.

Entirely possible and not without precedent.

Cruise ships? Great. Totally packing heat next time. My Steven Seagal moment shall come.

You just saved me a click. That's shitty.

The engine placement on the Boeing 737 isn't unique to Southwest. As for the 'why', it was related to the aircraft's center of gravity and a reduction in airframe stress. Side effects included easier ramp operations and maintenance than the high-mounted engines of the 727, which wouldn't have worked with the wider…

Sorry, but I'm not reading an all-out prohibition in this. It seems to read that you cannot take or share photos or videos for commercial purposes, and that's about it. Nothing to see here. Move along.

But it would be more secure. Or we could use fractal encryption. It worked for Data.

Since you're using "PIN number", you might as well go all in and refer to it as an "ATM machine" while you're at it.

Not really.

Cocaine is a hell of a drug.
