- related: I just don't understand how educated people can still confuse usage of there/their/they're. How did you ever pass the 4th grade? - Hotkiss Jul 27, 10:07 6
  - Who remembers what they learned in grade 4? Most times it's because they are lazy or dont care. - Walt_Disney Jul 27, 10:15
  - I still don;t know when to use too or to sometimes -- nm - Beaker Jul 27, 10:11 1
    - 'Too' has an extra 'o' because it refers to something extra. - MojaveMeg Jul 27, 10:16
  - They're their Hotkiss, don't let these things bother you so much. -- nm - Loyola Jul 27, 10:09

Now, if they transplanted Richard Nixon's brain into Sarah Palin, *maybe* she'd have a chance. -- nm - Beryllium Jul 27, 09:58

This is kind of random. Brothers Bloom will be available for rental on 9/29 but not for sale until next year. - David Jul 27, 09:55 3
- I was wondering a while back why no studios did this anymore. - TFox Jul 27, 10:03

    - well, sure. -- nm - Andie Jul 27, 09:56
Interesting article in the current issue of Time: Inside Bush and Cheney's final days. -- (link) - Don Homer Jul 27, 09:50
A replacement for the black and white stripes of the traditional barcode has been outlined by US researchers. - Loyola Jul 27, 09:48 3
- Curious. But I don't entirely believe the bit about cell phones being able to scan them. -- nm - Beryllium Jul 27, 09:51 2
  - phones can read current barcodes, can't they? -- nm - Guy Jul 27, 10:00 1
    - yes, but there's a demonstrative picture of this new technology in that article ... and it comes out as a red blur in the photo. - Beryllium Jul 27, 10:02
political talk inside. - tRuMaN Jul 27, 09:41 38
- are you looking for sense in her speech? - loosilu Jul 27, 09:42 37
  - yes, and I was pretty sure of your im. - tRuMaN Jul 27, 09:44 36
    - it makes no sense at all. Not when she first announced it, not now. -- nm - loosilu Jul 27, 09:45 35
      - She can get out of there and cash in now. - Will Hunting Jul 27, 09:46 34
        
        While I am not a huge fan of Arnold, he is here trying to resolve the issues in California - amoxy Jul 27, 09:51 21
        
        For better or worse, this guarantees she will not run for President. -- nm - con_carne Jul 27, 09:54 15
        
        Her popularity numbers among republicans is still high . . . - pmb Jul 27, 09:59
        
        Oh, she'll run, finish third in Iowa, get 2% in NH and hang on for a couple more states. -- nm - Reagen Jul 27, 09:57 1
        
        and then blame everyone else for being mean to her. -- nm - Mel Profit Jul 27, 10:11
        
        She might run....but ti pretty much eliminates her as a serious rival. - Will Hunting Jul 27, 09:56 2
        
        Someone should make one of those disaster movies, but instead of the President rallying everyone ... the president should resign. -- nm - Beryllium Jul 27, 09:56 1
        
        "Sir, you cannot loot the White House. You're not LBJ." -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 27, 09:57
        
        She's a fucking moonbat. This move today guarantees *nothing*, except that if she runs, she has a higher chance of losing. - Beryllium Jul 27, 09:55 7
        
        her chance of losing was and still is close to 100%. -- nm - loosilu Jul 27, 09:56 6
        
        But if she made it to the republican ticket, they'd still pretty much lock in 38% or more of the vote. -- nm - Beryllium Jul 27, 09:57 5
        
        Her chances of being a VP nominee again are less than her chances at being a Presidential nominee. - Will Hunting Jul 27, 09:59 1
        
        Like I said, she's a moonbat. Hell, she could pull a Specter (arlen? phil? your choice). -- nm - Beryllium Jul 27, 09:59
        
        that's still a loss. -- nm - loosilu Jul 27, 09:58 2
        
        And yet, it's also a sad statement about the beliefs of a large number of Americans. -- nm - Beryllium Jul 27, 09:58 1
        
        I don't disagree. -- nm - loosilu Jul 27, 09:59
        
        totally disagree. -- nm - loosilu Jul 27, 09:55
        
        It's pretty inconvenient to be stuck in Anchorage with job obligations when you could be on the lecture circuit. -- nm - loosilu Jul 27, 09:52 1
        
        or Juneau, even. -- nm - loosilu Jul 27, 09:52
        
        yeah, I think that is the rep she will have - tRuMaN Jul 27, 09:52 2
        
        I *hope* that's the rep she's created for herself. That's certainly what her actions should saddle her with. - Beryllium Jul 27, 09:53 1
        
        I'm very amused that my most conservative friends are making anti-Palin statements on FB. -- nm - loosilu Jul 27, 09:53
        
        I agree that is the probably the real reason. -- nm - tRuMaN Jul 27, 09:47
        
        oh, totally agree. I'm saying the reason she's giving makes no sense. -- nm - loosilu Jul 27, 09:46 10
        
        she's a lunatic; it's not supposed to make any sense. -- nm - Don Homer Jul 27, 09:47
        
        Cuz there's no method of good sense to say, "I'm cashing in." and still be able to. -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 27, 09:47 8
        
        "As much as I love the State of Alaska, I believe I can have a greater impact on more people by stepping down and being more active on the national - pmb Jul 27, 09:56 5
        
        here is what she said, not sure if that is from the speech or not - tRuMaN Jul 27, 09:59 4
        
        When she says it's because she can't be effective as a lame duck that it gets seriously off track. By that logic everyone should blow off the last - pmb Jul 27, 10:03 3
        
        how can she be a lame duck, since she can run again? - tRuMaN Jul 27, 10:05 2
        
        I know. It leaves out that she simply decided not to run again. -- nm - pmb Jul 27, 10:11 1
        
        It's like she's trying to start some sort of Ultimate Quitting League -- nm - Beryllium Jul 27, 10:12
        
        I just can't believe she couldn't pay someone to come up with something better. -- nm - loosilu Jul 27, 09:47 1
        
        Anyone better wouldn't be standing there when she quit the job. - Will Hunting Jul 27, 09:48
Bery, that's a scary meal. -- nm - loosilu Jul 27, 09:39 26
- dollar menu 4-piece McNuggets and maybe a yogurt parfait. on rare occasions, a grilled chicken sandwich -- nm - Hotkiss Jul 27, 09:44
- Large big mac meal with coke (no ice) and 2 double cheeseburgers on the side. -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 27, 09:42 19
  - how are you not dead? -- nm - loosilu Jul 27, 09:43 8
    - If I remember right, last time I had my cholesterol checked, I was at the bottom end of the healthy scale too. -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 27, 09:45 7
      - well, it does affect more than just your cholesterol. -- nm - loosilu Jul 27, 09:46 6
        
        Well, this is Will. When we say "hey now, brown cow", he gets his fork and knife ready. -- nm - Beryllium Jul 27, 09:47 4
        
        When the cows get smart they'll start wearing onion necklaces. -- nm - Don Homer Jul 27, 09:48 3
        
        "Mooooo substitutions!" -- nm - cows Jul 27, 09:51
        
        Mmm....flavoring.......... -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 27, 09:48 1
        
        That's really the only kind of pearl necklace that interests you. -- nm - TFox Jul 27, 10:07
        
        *shrug* - Will Hunting Jul 27, 09:46
  - Many years ago, I made the descision to avoid McDonalds beef ... lately I've loosened up on that a little, but I still try to stick to it. -- nm - Beryllium Jul 27, 09:43 9
    - you're getting more fat from the deep friend stuff. -- nm - loosilu Jul 27, 09:43 7
      - I don't think fat is the worry with McD's beef -- nm - con_carne Jul 27, 09:44
      - But fewer prions, I'm hoping. -- nm - Beryllium Jul 27, 09:44 3
        
        Oh, and today's lunch ... a triple-thick milkshake and two big macs! - Beryllium Jul 27, 09:46
        
        in North American the mad cow disease measures have been very effective. -- nm - loosilu Jul 27, 09:44 1
        
        I'd be way more worried about E coli, and as far as fast food chains go they are totally paranoid about E coli. - loosilu Jul 27, 09:50
      - FRIED. -- nm - loosilu Jul 27, 09:43 1
        
        heavy. -- nm - Don Homer Jul 27, 09:44
    - you mean "beef" -- nm - Don Homer Jul 27, 09:43
- but it's better than what my order USED to be :) -- nm - Beryllium Jul 27, 09:41 4
  - what was that? -- nm - loosilu Jul 27, 09:41 3
    - I do not remember 100%, it was a long time ago, but I think it was a 20pc nuggets and a big mac. -- nm - Beryllium Jul 27, 09:42 2
      - JFC. with fries and non-diet soda? -- nm - loosilu Jul 27, 09:43 1
        
        yes. Although come to think of it, I might not have got the big mac very often. I think it was just the 20 piece nuggets. Safer to eat while driving -- nm - Beryllium Jul 27, 09:43
"You know, it's never come up." -- nm - Reagen Jul 27, 09:39 1
