Yep, there is a long history of government supported monopolies.

@Baby Beater Benz: We're not talking bailouts here buddy.

For important things like my online banking I no longer even know my passwords. It's a 26 character pass generated by KeePass and stored there where it is locked by a password which on two computers synced by dropbox. I'd say the dropbox password was the weak link but I just changed it to a better one after thinking…

A small victory for property rights but unfortunately we are losing the war.

Lassie chose herself first for once.

@syedagmalali: So you're the person distracting me with your laptop in class!

I quite literally just took a break went to my local copy store and got four of these ordered on one side 60lb paper (I need to put graphs on the other side so free space is good) and after a 15% discount from a coupon for Google Places I got them all for $61.26. Now that is a bit pricey per book but reasonable when I…

@Starlionblue: Seen her lately? The Mummy was over ten years ago dude.

I for one am happy that the poor car was put out of it's misery. Seriously a black and yellow two tone on a 458?

Nothing like a trailer for a Darren Aronofsky film to remind me how much I dislike Darren Aronofsky.

I don't like it but power to them if this becomes a hit.

There is nothing I recommend more to my fellow students than OpenOffice WITH the After The Deadline spelling/grammar/style checker. It takes a merely adequate replacement for Word and turns it into a powerful tool for nailing that essay. If you don't already have it I suggest checking out my attached link. [www.afterth…

Son of a bitch...today is a bad day for cars I like.

I don't get upset about crashed exotics too much mostly because it gives me a chance to laugh at idiots and quite often it's a car that I don't care about like a Lambo, or almost any Ferrari. However, right now I am quite upset because this is one of the few cars that have come out in the past ten years that I love.…

@Peloton25: Alright I actually like Fisker now for their trolling camo.

If they keep thinking people will get excited by one scene in an Alfred Hitchcock film they might as well give up.

@Tightlines: Poor analogy again. I didn't ask to use your computer, it's your private property but your arguing that internet access should be a public good for you which means any member of the public should have equal right to use it, unless you'd like to violate the constitution?

@Tightlines: Poor analogy unless of course you're willing to let me come to your house and use your internet connection any time I want. You see my ability to use public roads does not inhibit your ability to use public roads, which is why they are known as public goods. The principle is called non rivalrous…

@Tightlines: Tax revenue.

@scarbrtj: One of my favorite speeches of all time.
