Re: Shooting discussion devolves

I've never owned a gun. I don't see the reason. They are weapons, just that. The 2nd Amendment was specifically made to allow us to overthrow a tyrannical government. But in those days, they didn't have heavy machine guns that could kill dozens or hundreds within minutes. I personally don't want to...

Re: Nurse who took Royal prank phonecall found dead.

I can't imagine why someone would commit suicide over a prank call like this, unless that person already had some underlying mental issues. I wish I could hear the content of the call. It could turn out she had been planing this for awhile. I think it's silly to be mad at the DJs over what seems to ...

Re: World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria

I am really enjoying Pandaria. As a person who really enjoys PvP and BGs, I look forward to gearing up to be competitive in the new areas. I've been sidetracked with farming and pet battling.. which I was unsure I'd enjoy prior to release....but they're pretty addicting. If you like your pet battles...

Ryan: We have a premium support plan...

I may send Biden a gift basket for continually shutting down Ryan's fuzzy facts.

Mr Bean wrote:Biden gives a very quiet answer to the abortion that comes out powerful.

His answer was perfect, imo.

In not so surprising, but still ironic news, Rush Limbaugh tweeted that Biden is bullying Ryan.

The VP debate tonight has the potential to be amazing. I can't imagine Biden won't call Ryan out on shit he will (not might) lie about. I want to see Biden shut him down. The "Us v. Them" mentality between the two parties seems to be getting more intense (or maybe it's just me becoming mor...

Ooops, you're correct, I meant Jon. I can see the usefulness of having some sort of time limit in that people like Mitt will simply continue talking without it. I mean, he couldn't even follow his own request of "He started this round, Jim, SO I GET TO FINISH!"

I'm wondering if Obama's passivity tonight in the debates was strategic? Basically letting Willard define himself a little better on the issues, since he hasn't really done so yet. I am still annoyed at how poorly Jim moderated this. Do we know who's moderating the next presidential debate yet? And ...

Re: Death, The afterlife, and what you Believe

I don't believe in an afterlife. However, if I were to choose one I'd want to spend eternity as conscious energy zipping from one galaxy to the next and witnessing what other life is out there. Reincarnation sounds nifty too, as long as I'm reincarnated as something similar or better I suppose. My l...

At least when I played over Live, granted this was back in 2006 and it could be better now, it would become a domino effect of lowest common denominator. It's a service I was paying for, and I should...

True, but I was also taking into account the shootings in chicago. With reports coming in that the "empire state bldg" shooter carrying an extra clip makes me wonder if he didn't intend to go down taking more than just his ex-co worker.
