L&O just had a line where the cop tells the defendant he’s “in the big leagues” because he hit a cop. One problem: cop was undercover. It’s like they’re not even trying anymore.

The man is very funny. If his views weren’t so diametrically opposed to mine, I’d considering voting for him.

Is awesome. Won’t catch me using a mac though.

A question 4

Posted on August 31, 2008 by Gideon

Can one oppose gay marriage and/or civil unions and still claim to have “good friends” who are gay? Or perhaps the question should be: would someone who is gay be “good friends” with someone who opposes gay marriage and/or civil unions?

It’s not like having friends who refuse to be fuel efficient, while you drive a Prius. Gay marriage seems to be a more fundamental issue.

Anyone know the answer?

Stop. You have reached the end of the internet 5

Well, not really, but you will be cut off if you’re a Comcast customer and you use more than 250gb of bandwith per month. This means that almost no normal user will have a problem. Except, of course, Scott Greenfield, who uses about 3 trillion GB of bandwith everyday.

Unlike Appellate, who is okay with it, I think it’s silly.

To you in the not-to-be-disclosed-color car, who drove about 2 inches behind my car on the highway this afternoon: driving that close does not scare me and it will not make me change lanes. What it will do, is make me want to slam on my brakes really hard. You were driving a convertible. I was not.

Also, drive slower. Save gas.
