Price out that infrastructure. Let us know what you learn.

Sure, that New York to LA “bullett” train is going to be a ranging success. Even at an average of 200 mph, and no stops, that’s going to be a 27 hour trip. And factor in stops, and crew changes, and it pushes 30. Even if everyone has to be strip searched, flying is still faster.

The TSA is safety theater, and nothing more.

I’m thinking he’s trying to get the German companies to move more manufacturing to the US. But the way this article (blog entry, technically) is spinning it, it’s like he doesn’t want German cars in the US at all. That’s tantamount to political suicide, which for some is expected of the current President.

This overlaps with what I call the lunch conundrum. Often I jump into the car and have no idea where I’m going or what I’m hungry for. I just drive in the direction I typically go and just make a decision on the fly.

The comments on here have convinced me that if I’m ever in a position to give interviews again, I’ll throw in a stupid “creative” question. Looks like it’s the perfect way to weed out insufferable, arrogant pricks who think they are above answering a question they personally don’t see the value of.

You already handed in your resume. They want to know the person.

I was once asked, “if you were a flavor of jello, what flavor would you be?”

I’d rather be a forest than a tree.

My husband, who had a vasectomy before we were married, always got me Mother’s Day gifs from our pets, looking back I should have told him frankly but kindly that I found this distasteful, and a great reminder I’d never have children.

Well in the first movie alone 5 different or so R2's can be identified from differences in the models. Lets not even go into how many continuity errors there are.

I have two theories.

It’s amazing how many people in this country have never actually explored any of it outside their own little worlds or studied the many different regions found in one place. If you owned land in Texas or Arkansas and had a feral pig problem, you would need something a little more than a little .22 to take a hoard like…

I don’t need an AK-47 to hunt deer.

I started thinking about those cable-news gun debates where you always hear the same argument:

Me too. That’s what a window unit + small generator is for. It’s just my wife and I. Keeping the master bedroom cool, the fridge on and the tv/radio for updates is all that matters. I don’t need to chill the whole house, just one room. Oh, well pump too, but that doesn’t run that often. I’m on a septic, so no…

Absolutely. They have been for years. Tell me a delivery company with brown trucks? What jeweler uses blue boxes and bags. What color do you associate Verizon Cell Service with?

The times that we needed it before we installed it, money wasn’t as much of an object. Also when I consider the costs associated with our other big outages, it’s probably a wash. Consider the contents of all of your refrigerators and freezers.

Yea, but 5-10 years ago if you said to cover your webcam and microphone because they can see/hear you, you would be called a nutjob. The thing about conpiracy theorys is that its so easy to call the person a tin foil hat wearing idiot and if hes proven right the people that accused him are nowhere to be found.

I have “real facial hair” — more, thicker, and faster growing than anyone I know. And this thing works fine. A big trim will spray hairs, just like any other electric. If you can’t contain or clean that up, do it in the shower.
