• Commented on Vintage aviation hostess photos
  I suppose I wouldn't mind seeing air hostesses dressed like this nowadays.... as long as the "air hosts" (or should that be "male hostesses"?) were in hotpants too. Men in hot pants? Hrm. I would have thought men in full...

• Commented on Reason TV: Mississippi Drug War Blues
  @YBKul I never said that using or possessing drugs should be legal. I said it shouldn't be criminal. Nor did I say anything about saying that alcohol should be legal or continue to be legal. The fact that alcohol is...
• Commented on Reason TV: Mississippi Drug War Blues
  By war on drugs do you mean criminal enforcement policies for dealers, criminal enforcement policies for users or the belief that some drugs should be illegal? I believe in both keeping some highly addictive drugs or drugs that affect judgment...

  We only wanted the huddled masses when we were a relatively poor country. Now they can only bring us down! Plus they would breath all our sweet sweet free(r)(tm) air. Cpyrght (c) 2008 ll rghts rsrvd. FB Wrnng: y wll...
• Commented on US-born journalist threatened by Yakuza
  I don't think I've seen much glorifying modern day pirates. Sure old pirates with the peg leg and the parrots raping and pillaging has seen its share of glorification. Modern day pirates are scary. They pull up in their cigarette...
• Commented on Grand Theft Are You Fcking Kidding Me
  I don't understand. Grand Theft Auto is supposed to be a simulation of a crime ridden city; an intensified reflection of the worst in our own world. Of course it is going to have sexist and misogynistic characteristics since the...
• Commented on Mazda destroys 4,703 shiny new cars worth $100 million
  Cougar Ace? That's a joke right? Now I can't get out of my head a 45 year old woman dressed in old pilot clothes picking up guys at the bar. I bet she has a lot of x's carved into...
• Commented on 7-year-old boy removed from father and placed in state custody over mistaken order of hard lemondade
  People used to send their kids off to school with a nip of alcohol in many countries around the world. Many European countries allow kids to drink and don't have a minimum drinking age at all. In Italy, Portugal and...
• Commented on How HAARP works
  It certainly has nothing to do with forcing those electrons down to strike fear into our enemies with massive daytime lightning strikes......
• Commented on Gary Wolf profiles SuperMemo creator in Wired
  There's an open source project that is very similar called Mmemosyne available for Windows, MacOS and Linux. I only mention it because the SuperMemo software seems kind of dated....

• Commented on Accused penis thieves captured
  Silly Congoans don't know that if you kill the thief you'll never get your penis back. You have to trick him by pretending that nothing happened after you eat a shrunken chicken penis stuffed in a shrunken duck penis stuffed...
• Commented on Massive National Geographic feature on 1964 NYC World's Fair
  Interestingly, the United States had its membership of the BIE (the people who sanction World's Fairs) withdrawn in June 2001. So no more will come to the US. I've never seen one (the last one in the US was in...
• Commented on Shoes are bad for your feet? Vindicating the barefoot set
  I'm not sure I have a normal gait when in flip flops. Running is certainly very difficult in them since you have to compress your toes to keep them on. Still, I love them....
• Commented on Japan is almost out of butter
  Pfft. Lack of rice in California is due to people going crazy and buying up the stock. The idea that Costco somehow has unlimited amounts of rice or that when they run out it is an epidemic is silly. California...
• Commented on Japan is almost out of butter
  Huh. I thought lactose intolerance was well, painful. Seems like wanting butter, but not skim milk poses a pretty big problem though....
• Commented on Japan is almost out of butter
  It was my understanding that upwards of 98% of Asians were lactose intolerant....
• Commented on Selling wine in TetraPak containers
  Coming from the land of the finest wines (California)... heh... sorry I couldn't resist. I like glass wine bottles. I have been told from a young age that wine in boxes is crap and it is hard to break free...
• Commented on PETA offers $1 million prize for vat-grown meat
  I agree, people just don't have enough seitan in their lives. Sometimes I wake up and I praise seitan for allowing me to live another day. If I have kids, they will all e raised with seitan and in time,...
• Commented on Which imaginary animals are kosher?
  When will geneticists work on a truly worthy project: the Kosher Hog aka the Kog. Just a little bit of modification to those hooves and we'd be in business....
• Commented on New York Sun column: "Why I Let My 9-Year-Old Ride the Subway Alone"
  People in this country are afraid of everything. They seem to be scared that the boogie man will jump out at any second and commit some unspeakable horror upon them. Statistics about how unlikely it is to be blown up...
• Commented on Happy 107th birthday to my grandmother!
  Weird. That picture looks like a statue....
• Commented on Internet immunity disorder
  I always charge something on my credit card when I'm at the airport and it seems to work pretty well. The one time I didn't do it, my credit card company called me to alert me to potential fraud....
