A Colorado Baker says he will close his store rather than make a same sex wedding cake for couple who tried to order one -- (link) - zeitgeist Jul 31, 13:12 2
- no one wants his cakes any more anyway - its a win/win - Epiphany Jul 31, 13:14
- Well, I'll assume the obvious: they requested two four-foot-tall penis spires on the cake. Anyone would close up shop after that. -- nm - Beryllium Jul 31, 13:14
That's reassuring. Just received an email from Sylvan with "school" spelled "scholl" -- nm - TWuG Jul 31, 13:10 3

Today I had an idea for what could be a fun and (slightly) profitable retail business. - Beryllium Jul 31, 13:06 4
- Really? I ponder it often, and they are all great ideas. -- nm - The Dark Spawn Jul 31, 13:07 3
  - In this case it would be a local store for hobbyist tech: 3D printing, parts for aerial & submersible drones, and cameras for such items - Beryllium Jul 31, 13:13
  - no, "Heroclix-R-Us" is a terrible idea -- nm - the human tater tot Jul 31, 13:09 1

You'd think this oreo topped donut would be better than it is but they filled it with some kind of whipped cream - oblique Jul 31, 12:59 21

  - Yeah, I've never liked them very much. -- nm - mara Jul 31, 13:02 3
    - they are not my favorite, but white milk + Oreo cookies = almost perfection. nm -- nm - groiny Jul 31, 13:04 2
      - true, true - the oreo cakester things are crap, the oreo bars are crap - plain ones with milk? heaven -- nm - Epiphany Jul 31, 13:13

  - yup, same here. - tRuMaN Jul 31, 13:03
- don't they price speeds, the more you pay the faster you can get? -- nm - zeitgeist Jul 31, 12:51 3
  - They do for me here. I'm fine with my dsl speed but I could get a faster connection for more loot. -- nm - Krusty Jul 31, 12:52 2
    - how fast is yours? can I ask? (have you ever speed tested?) -- nm - world's most beautiful creature Jul 31, 12:53 1
      - I pay for 12 and probably get 10. So much of it though is limited by the speed of the server on the other end though. -- nm - Ender Jul 31, 12:57
- Verizon 'Enhanced' claims to get those speeds - which is considered slow now. - decline Jul 31, 12:50
- Depends on how much fiber is available and how far you are from the closest switch. - GregW Jul 31, 12:50 3
  - this is dsl through a small phone company (charter, maybe?) so they're obvs reselling verizon's fiber. - world's most beautiful creature Jul 31, 12:53 2
