I was replying to jetRink, and I was talking about the US.

WHOA!!! HE'S GOT A CIGARETTE! CALL THE POLICE!!

No.

First you have to spend a lot of time dicking around about who to give the contract to. Then the contractor makes their schedule to lengthen the job as much as possible so they always have some work on hand. Then you have to have plenty of time for the construction crews to stand around and talk. After that, you've…

This is stupid. If phone makers were trying to shove Honeycomb onto a phone, then OK Google, you're justified in having some beef with them. But if some hackers like the xda guys want to mess around with their phone and make the UX "bad", that's their business.

You know, I'd like to see a little less "social" and a little more "productive" and a lot more (data) "compatible" on the web.

Whatever

Unlike JimmyBanks, I don't understand what you're trying to say.

Wow.

And then they get nasty. oooh yea.

AT&T really bought T-Mobile just to stop those "I'm a mac. I'm a PC." rip-off commercials.

Yea, I realized that right after I commented. I tried to delete it, but kept getting "comment save fail". Of course, this isn't really a giz article, which is why it's a decent length. =P

If you and your wife were working before you got married (or even if you weren't), the state collected taxes and you paid them. Now you're married. There's no logical reason why your taxes should change. You still make the same amount. If anything, being married and sharing expenses like an apartment or house, bills,…

The statistic is accurate enough for an off-the-cuff number. It shows the main point: so many people get a divorce, and it's so easy to do so, that it has no value as a "commitment". It's a purely legal thing to confer special privileges to the antiquated concept of heterosexual monogamy. This creates disparity in our…

If non religious people want to express their commitment, then they just stay committed to each other in their hearts, the only place it matters. It's easy enough to end a "commitment" like marriage, so it has no real value as a sign of commitment now.

If you get a chance, you should read my post above. I totally agree that the legal institution of 'marriage' is broken.

I think marriage as a state institution should be abolished, and left solely as a religious institution. That would eliminate the disparity between heterosexual and homosexual marriage, and—this is the important point—make all other even more unusual living arrangements equal also, such as this guy's polygamy, open…

$3900 in 1970 is equivalent to $22,000 today. I'm pretty sure you can buy a car for $22k now.
