Commented on Murky Coffee's owner responds to espresso-over-ice kerfuffle
If I were selling coffee and a potential loyal customer wanted it with ice, I'd let him have it with ice. Why not? If I were in this guy's place and were refused iced espresso, I would have ordered the...

Commented on Pistol Cam to shoot video and bullets
Hypothetically, not a bad idea. But, in situations where firing a gun really is warranted, the officer's accuracy shouldn't be compromised by having a bulky camera on the gun....
Commented on Sit-down-and-shut-up "Christian" Ford dealership is run by a non-church attendee who is sorry about the ad
Speaking as a person who does not formally practice any religion, I really don't care if any atheists are offended by the ad. Atheists are constantly insulting people who practice Christianity. Many atheists celebrated when Jerry Falwell died. My concern...

Commented on Amusement park hires parenting cops to confiscate smart phones/PDAs
True, Antinous, a person could choose a job without much responsibility, where they are not very important to the operation of the company. If they choose otherwise, shame on them for using technology to have a little flexibility in where...
Commented on Amusement park hires parenting cops to confiscate smart phones/PDAs
So, if someone has to be accesible for important communication from work, and they also would like to take their children to an amusement park, they're screwed? Sometimes I have to work on weekends, and I'm much happier being able...

As an occasional betel net chewer I find the pocket spitoon appealing, but doesn't the risk of a cap coming loose double the risk of a cap coming loose?...

Burn a cross on your lawn and I will laugh and jeer at you from my own property, in the hopes that you will step over the line and give me a clean shot at you. Are you African American? Had any relatives or friends killed by the Klan?...

The PDAs are not confiscated. You drop off your PDA, and collect it when you leave. It's voluntary. And it doesn't cover the whole park area. But it's been neary a year, and I wonder how successful or unsuccessful the scheme has gone. (Kind of unrelated) there are some shops that have lockers for you to lock your bags before you go in (to reduce theft). But sometimes when I walk towards them, one of the staff members would ask "Is that a computer in your bag". (It's a laptop bag I'm carrying). "Yes". "Never mind, you don't need to...

Geee, aren't we lucky we have those managers to take care of the well-being of their customers children? It's totally beyond me how we managed life before, without them. Maybe they should also do short interviews with the children about possible abuse or unfulfilled wishes. Totally voluntary and only in special areas, of course....
PalookaJoe commented on Amusement park hires parenting cops to confiscate smart phones/PDAs
This plan seems deeply at odds with my own experience. Our family outings, especially the multi-generational outings with siblings, children, cousins, aunts, uncles, grandparents and great grandparents, would be a mess without cell phones. We split up and regather several times throughout the day, and it's much easier when we can call and text each other on the fly....
