I Googled "marshmallow roasting twig". Google images returned this pix. You may be brave enough to question Google, but I am a good internet citizen and accept whatever Google tells me to be true. While I understand you're welcome to your own opinion, I'm not sure how much that will help you when the Google Black…

Could you explain how you see this as a helpful twig? With the dual, V-shaped branches it would do no good as a marshmallow roaster and with a total of 3 extended branches, I don't think it would work as a divining rod.

I pointed out both Doug's typo and mis-attributed photo on the Pistorius article within 10 minutes of the posting. Could you confirm I was in the allotted correction period?

I think you meant there are like no post buy anyone else.

At least he realized the error of his ways and no longer is a greasy-haired stoner.

Not a picture of Oscar. This is his brother Carl. Go home Doug. Your obviously still drunk.

Well, militant means aggressive and/or combative. So next time you see her with a burger, feel free to slap it out of her hands. When she starts to scream, just tell her you're trying to live up to her description.

My first 'real grown up' art was a lithograph of Einstein.

They seemed to have stopped Open Thread Friday. I'll be your date tomorrow for Saturday Night Social if you have any wine left.

Be careful then. A 45 yo Connecticut man was just arrested because he was posing as one of the singers on Skype and getting girls to perform sex acts over the video. (Don't ask me how this worked when Skype is a 2-way video...I can't quite figure it out how the girls didn't catch on either.)

For me the simplest way to answer this question is to reframe it and look at the opposite. So is an intensely unattractive or disfigured person responsible for the fact that their looks may make another person more uncomfortable around them? Because of their looks, is it their responsibility to moderate other…

No, it's an actual thing with standards and verification. If companies believe it will increase their market share they will use it. But if those GMO-free companies choose not to label, I don't see how forcing the other side to be legally mandate to label is at all fair.

Especially when there is no reason a company wouldn't label their food as non-GMO if they felt it would increase their marketshare.

Again, instead of forcing a not needed label, why on earth is the Non-GMO label not good enough for you? There are standards and if a market exists I would assume most companies would want to voluntarily label their food as non-GMO.

You already have that right and choice! Instead of forcing company A to label their food as GMO, why on earth do you just buy the food that's voluntarily labeled Non-GMO? Do you think the 'Non' part would be too confusing?

I just posted it on this thread, but the life expectancy of the amazonian tribes is about 43. Yup, living in an absolute natural state is the key to a long life I guess.

I would think any health gains met by the tribes hunting and farming on a small scale would be severely undermined by the loss of sewage systems, vaccinations and organized law enforcement (or do you think if you have a nice farm going those other 'tribes' wouldn't find it much easier to just take yours instead of…

I'd welcome her to come sit with me anytime. I'm the most easy going flyer you could want...get in, get settled, go to sleep, arrive and deplane. But I do not put up with shit on planes, trains, etc. Hell, last week I was on the city's light rail watching a guy (with his wife there) doing a full nail clipping…

I would think her deteriorating kidneys is a much bigger risk than the lupus (says the arm-chair, House trained doctor). You could have an abortion with no to low anesthesia, but or full abdominal surgery you have no choice. And if your kidneys can't rid the body of the drugs you're kinda' screwed.

S'okay...I debated whether to reply and hang my nerd cred out for the world to see. I'm truly not a scifi geek, just wife and mother to two men who had the X-Men movies on what felt like a constant loop for months after each came out.
