Gotta love the Facebook scammers out there...so I'm logged into the trading site's Facebook... - Jim Apr 22, 11:01 5
- Corporations are people, Jim. -- nm - Spawn Apr 22, 11:05
- I had three emails on the weekend saying that I had requested a password reset -- nm - zork Apr 22, 11:04 3
  - I decided to play along for a second, but right away came "I have to log off right now...give me your number and I'll text you." - Jim Apr 22, 11:06 2
    - it was probably a bot -- nm - decline Apr 22, 11:08 1
      - probably. I've gotten this a few times on this account. Don't get it on my personal account, because I don't accept people I don't know there. - Jim Apr 22, 11:09
" "There are 20 people on this earth that can do what he did at the combine," said Savage." - David Apr 22, 10:56 8

  - He's slightly faster and stronger than Gholston and I suspect he's a better player as well. - David Apr 22, 11:04
so I'm listening to surv: nicaragua at work. brandon's big reveal is so "I dated fabio" in scope. -- nm - amanda Apr 22, 10:53 3
- and (sp? do I have to say that?) - amanda Apr 22, 10:57 2
  - Yep utterly ridiculous and insane - Jovian Apr 22, 11:12
  - 'I dated Fabio' is so classic. That guy was such a tool. My response would be 'And?' -- nm - Shaun Apr 22, 11:01

[deleted] 35
- Good. I'm ecstatic he's been charged in criminal courts. - spamlet (iPhone) Apr 22, 10:53 19
  - I'm curious if he's seen a lawyer yet. -- nm - Krusty Apr 22, 10:55 18
    - I've been hearing that the Public Defenders Office is ready to assign someone. -- nm - Mel Profit Apr 22, 11:04 2
      - I'm confident some enterprising attorney will try to make their career off of him. - David Apr 22, 11:06 1
        
        I said the same thing last night. someone will take the case gladly. -- nm - Mel Profit Apr 22, 11:10
    - I think he's been under sedation for most of the time. I know he can not speak right now - decline Apr 22, 10:57 11
      - If they're questioning him and they're charging him he should have an attorney there with him. Does he know to even ask for one? - Krusty Apr 22, 11:00 7
        
        He very likely was not advised of his right to an attorney. -- (link) - mara Apr 22, 11:10
        
        an obscure law was invoked, IIRC, that lets you hold and question someone for 48 hours without an attorney or reading of rights if there is sufficient - colin Apr 22, 11:04 1
        
        Holder recently expanded this hugely apparently... - Mel Profit Apr 22, 11:10
        
        no chance of your last sentence, even if they didn't do the first part. Way too much evidence for them to need his statements -- nm - zork Apr 22, 11:02
        
        maybe they want to let him go on a technicality and send him out into the streets of Boston - Epiphany Apr 22, 11:02 1
        
        "he won't last 60 seconds" .. meh. Bostonians know how to make things last. -- nm - Beryllium Apr 22, 11:02
        
        spoils - Beryllium Apr 22, 11:01
      - I just read on CNN that he is on a ventilator. IANAD but I believe that requires sedation. -- nm - loosilu Apr 22, 10:59 2
        
        He's been answering some questions via writing. -- nm - mara Apr 22, 10:59 1
        
        Yup. Hence my question. -- nm - Krusty Apr 22, 11:00
    - a federal magistrate judge came to his hospital room, so he might have -- nm - Beryllium Apr 22, 10:55 2
      - I'd like to hear that he had a lawyer present at that time. I'm not hearing that yet. -- nm - Krusty Apr 22, 10:56 1
        
        see info above and in this link... -- (link) - colin Apr 22, 11:06
- By "WMD" do they mean something other than the pressure cooker bombs? -- nm - Ender Apr 22, 10:51 10
  - I read over the weekend that the pressure cooker bombs count as WMDs under the federal charge determination -- nm - ty97 Apr 22, 10:56
  - seems like the devices they used would fall under the criminal definition of the term. - znufrii Apr 22, 10:55 3
    - Well, fuck, Saddam had tons of WMD then! -- nm - Ender Apr 22, 10:58 2
      - Heh. :-) Seriously, the military definition isn't the same as civilian. -- nm - Krusty Apr 22, 11:02
      - See below! -- nm - Dubya Apr 22, 10:59
  - guess they mean anything that can cause more than one destruction. -- nm - colin Apr 22, 10:54
  - Maybe the hot plate incendiary devices. nm - Dignan Apr 22, 10:53 1
    - you just served up a bad one -- nm - zork Apr 22, 10:59
  - [deleted]
  - Nope. -- nm - Dubya Apr 22, 10:53
- reading about the mom, I'm surprised she wasn't in the car with them, (9/11 truther etc) -- nm - zeitgeist Apr 22, 10:44

  - (I love that she is 66 and probably shopping for fishnets for her tour outfit) -- nm - ty97 Apr 22, 10:43 1
    - Related to her age: It blows my mind that she is younger than Dolly Parton and Martha Stewart. - MDH Apr 22, 10:46

        I have the whole series on DVD. It's uncensored starting with Season 3. -- nm - Was Bar Was Apr 22, 10:45 3
        
        would you be willing to loan 3 and 4 to me when we need? obvs I would pay for shipping etc. note that "no" is ok. - amanda Apr 22, 10:47 2
        
        I'd love to, but they're out on loan to my local friends right now. Not sure when I'll get them back. -- nm - Was Bar Was Apr 22, 10:52 1
        
        no worries. I can buy used and resell at very little cost I expect. -- nm - amanda Apr 22, 10:53

I've decided that I don't care so much for knowing what is going to happen on GoT episodes, having read the books already - prayformojo Apr 22, 10:28 1
- That sentence is a mess. "I don't like already knowing what is going to happen on GoT episodes" -- nm - prayformojo Apr 22, 10:28
David - here are my thoughts on Family Meal (the Voltaggio restaurant we tried on Saturday) - - kelly Apr 22, 10:24 4
- but the menu doesn't say roasted potatoes? they had me at arancini bolognese - JenBro Apr 22, 11:20

        Regular Show is a close second for me... -- nm - colin Apr 22, 10:27 1
        
        Regular Show doesn't do it for me, but I love Adventure Time and Gravity Falls. -- nm - Was Bar Was Apr 22, 10:33
