- Wow, I loved one of them. I'm going to say "spoiler" and put it inside. - mara Dec 3, 15:22
- Nice! (except for Daniel Radcliffe's choice of sweater) -- nm - kelly Dec 3, 15:20 1
  - OMG! *laughing* (He looks so gay, although my gaydar sucks, so apologies if I'm offending anyone.) -- nm - mara Dec 3, 15:24
According to my Netflix ratings history, I have seen 2500 movies in my lifetime. I wish I had kept track of how many of those were during my video - kelly Dec 3, 15:15
Is this right? Florida says that if domestic violence occurs, an arrest has to be made. - Inigo Dec 3, 15:11 7
- [deleted] 4
  - I thought some states left it up to the person assaulted to press charges or not. -- nm - Inigo Dec 3, 15:19 2

    - [deleted]
  - Have you never seen Cops? Oft times the women will not press charges, so nothing happens. -- nm - Spawn Dec 3, 15:18
- Not in Florida, but Patrick Roy ended up in court for the same reason. - Reagen Dec 3, 15:16
- ^ Florida law -- nm - Inigo Dec 3, 15:11

- Msg from Spartan Crash: Chances are likely in 2-3 hours. - Trish Dec 3, 15:17
Reading that Joss Whedon/Dollhouse article ... it would be amusing if his cheapo Terminator film was like "Terminator: Cast Away" - Beryllium Dec 3, 15:02
hee. How a web design goes straight to hell: -- (link) - JaxSean Dec 3, 14:55 1
- ohhhh... that brings back a lot of memories. - Dr.Vermin Dec 3, 15:02
All that Chinese news video of Tiger's accident was missing was the people speaking in Simlish. -- nm - Reagen Dec 3, 14:48
[deleted] 4
- I will concede that it's hard for even me to get too upset about a tax that only affects "0.2 percent of all estates". - Dr.Vermin Dec 3, 15:08 3
  - It's not the death that's getting taxed, it's the money that's changing hands. If money weren't changing hands, the "death" wouldn't be "taxed." -- nm - mara Dec 3, 15:18 1

ActBlue is getting aggressive. - David Dec 3, 14:44
According to this, Tiger's wife has been offered $5 million to stay with the golfer. -- (link) - Mop (228 lbs) Dec 3, 14:38 22
- its all just totally insane to me. Why would he have married her without a prenup in the first place? Especially if you're gonna F every model you see -- nm - Jovian Dec 3, 14:47 5
  - why would he get married at all? this is more then a one time slip up - this is continous, long term affairs with numerous chicks - Epiphany Dec 3, 15:16 3
    - Culture. Kids. Being madly in love. (Being in love doesn't prevent some from preferring multiple partners.) -- nm - mara Dec 3, 15:19
    - Kids. Why is this even a question? -- nm - Spawn Dec 3, 15:17 1
      - So he doesn't have to get married to have kids, say his culture upbringing makes him want to - Epiphany Dec 3, 15:23
  - there was one. But he'd still rather not trigger it. -- nm - Reagen Dec 3, 14:49
- If it was about the money, wouldn't she get more in a divorce? -- nm - JaxSean Dec 3, 14:44 2
  - I think it depends on what their original agreement was. -- nm - b. Dec 3, 14:46 1
    - I see in the article it says the rumored pre-nup was that she had to stay at least 10 years to get $20M. -- nm - JaxSean Dec 3, 14:47
- the talk is the pre nup is getting rewritten with bigger incentives for her to stay married. -- nm - Remlik Dec 3, 14:40 12
  - that's sickening to me. -- nm - b. Dec 3, 14:42 11
    - Perhaps for the sake of the children. Many, many couples who would otherwise divorce stay together because of the kids. -- nm - mara Dec 3, 14:47 1
      - and how often does that really work to anyone's benefit? - b. Dec 3, 14:53
    - don't take it too seriously... there are very few people that would know the details here and I don't think any are blabbing to the press -- nm - stewie Dec 3, 14:47 1
      - I'm sure it's mostly speculation, but the whole idea of it is what's sickening. as far as we know (*nod to mara*), their initial coupling was - b. Dec 3, 14:48
    - Well, I would imagine that that's just one small part of his pleading with her to stay. -- nm - Beryllium Dec 3, 14:44 5
      - 'I love you, baby, I was just weak; and if I'm caught cheating again, you get $x-hundred million more!" -- nm - b. Dec 3, 14:55 3

    - Me too. -- nm - Mop (228 lbs) Dec 3, 14:44
Excel Help -- Is there a way to randomize a list? -- nm - znufrii Dec 3, 14:36 4
- more detail? Do you mean "create a list of random [items]" or do you mean "put an existing list into a random sort order"? -- nm - JaxSean Dec 3, 14:38 3
  - the latter -- nm - znufrii Dec 3, 14:39 2
    - You could create a column and user =RAND() and sort by that column. -- nm - JaxSean Dec 3, 14:41 1
      - awesome. Thanks. -- nm - znufrii Dec 3, 14:42
JackDawson, I went through each "200x in Film" page on wikipedia - znufrii Dec 3, 14:34 3

    - You *almost* made it one entire year without mentioning Kyoto. (Last mention: Dec 4th, 2008. :) ) -- nm - Beryllium Dec 3, 14:23 1
      - Like most Canadians....I find the environment to be so 2007 and 2008. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Dec 3, 15:01
