Oh yah, a phone booth. I've heard of those. I never realized that phone booth doors look just like saloon doors in westerns.

Reiser's wife, Nina, sure knew how to pick 'em. Reiser's best friend with whom she reportedly had had an affair, confessed to killing eight people in an unrelated case. I know some women are attracted to bad boys, but... SHEESH!

Scenarios like this will only become more frequent. We've passed peak oil and yet we lack the political will or technological skill to develop alternative energy sources in sufficient amounts to replace fossil fuels so that business can go on as usual. The planet's ecosystem is critically unbalanced and human beings have multiplied beyond the capacity of the planet to sustain them without having what's left of its natural resources completely ravaged. The most likely consequence of all this is that the human population will crash. We are seeing the beginning of a long process of localized die-offs of the human species. Our chickens have finally come home to roost. Time for the planet to bring itself back into balance.

Need more proof that this is complete nonsense?

The list is literally endless.

I was hot for this camcorder until I realized that it had no anti-shake. Bummer. DEALBREAKER! Instead, I'm saving my pennies for the Canon VIXIA HF10, which does shoot in 1080p at either 24 or 30 FPS. It's a tad larger than the Sony, but the Canon's picture quality will blow the Sony away.
