Drunk man sleeping in car still deserves DWI, Minn. Supreme Court says -- (link) - Mop Jan 21, 18:09 15
- I have to say, I kind of agree with the decision/law. Although 4 years in prison in that instance seems crazy. - JaxSean Jan 21, 18:20 7
  - You can't convinct a guy on what he may have potentially done. You need evidence that he actually drove... except in Minn. -- nm - Mop Jan 21, 18:25 1
    - [deleted]
  - To me, this is too much like thought crime. - TWuG Jan 21, 18:25
  - So we are going to start arresting people for what they might do? What they might have done but we have no proof of? Ouch! - Redmond Jan 21, 18:24
  - did he have a record? -- nm - loosilu Jan 21, 18:23
  - Wait, I take that back. Dude already had 3 other prior convictions? Yeah, too bad. -- nm - JaxSean Jan 21, 18:23 1
    - was gonna say, not likely for a first time offender. -- nm - loosilu Jan 21, 18:23

so, I did walk home. Took about an hour, and the giant hill at the end is a real killer (as always) -- nm - Beryllium Jan 21, 18:07 2
- Yeah, (gasp) but (pant) it was (inhale) good (exhale) for us -- nm - Bery's heart Jan 21, 18:09 1
  - Now I'm going to drive 60% of the way back in order to eat dinner at a restaurant I walked past. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 21, 18:12

The second big shoe in the corp political ad decision, doesn't that mean now that churches can now make political statements/stances? -- nm - zeitgeist Jan 21, 17:52 9
- [deleted]
- I doubt it. I think that's an entirely different piece of law and is tied to their not paying taxes. - TWuG Jan 21, 17:56
- churches, and not for profits have not been considered to be like a "person" legaly or for tax purposes, so probably not. - tRuMaN Jan 21, 17:55
- NFPs (including Churches) already good make political statement/stances. NFP's (including Churches) can't endorse specific candidates though. - ty97 Jan 21, 17:55 5
  - They (evangelicals) have been pushing the envelope already and I'll bet there will be a test case in the works before the year is out -- nm - zeitgeist Jan 21, 18:05 4
    - IANAL, but I don't see a constitutional basis for NFPs to complain about their inability to endorse candidates. - ty97 Jan 21, 18:09 3
      - like they'll let that stop them? -- nm - znufrii Jan 21, 18:10 2
        
        They'll say it's an attack on religion. Or something like that. - the liioulu with a spa in a bottle Jan 21, 18:20 1

  - Know what I can see in *your* face? nubby. nm - Dignan Jan 21, 17:32 1
    - Are you accusing me of cheating on you with nubby? - amoxy Jan 21, 17:46

    - [deleted] 2
      - (and, like, people directly involved in those scandals have openly talked about it? Like Sanford himself?) -- nm - Reagen Jan 21, 17:44
      - It's OK if you're too scared to read it. I understand. -- nm - Reagen Jan 21, 17:41

  - hmm, not sure why it do that (it's just a google doc) - ty97 Jan 21, 17:20

How has no one mentioned the huge diss James Cameron hit jay leno with last night? -- (link) - Beaker Jan 21, 16:39 16
- because nobody watches leno? -- nm - amanchester Jan 21, 16:49 13
  - It's somewhat amazing that his ratings haven't really budged since this whole kerfuffle broke. -- nm - TFox Jan 21, 16:50 12
    - I'm hoping his ratings fail to rebound when he gets back the 10:35 slot. - the liioulu with a spa in a bottle Jan 21, 17:53
    - I'm loving that. From what I understand, Conan's ratings have doubled, and Leno's are meh. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 21, 16:51 10
      - Well, we will be unable to watch him in anything for a long time, from what I gather -- nm - con_carne Jan 21, 17:36 1
        
        seven months is not a long time (but granted, that's just the minimum) -- nm - Beryllium Jan 21, 18:19
      - people I know are having conan final episode parties and *then* going out. like, my friends are missing drinking. for conan. *missing drinking.* -- nm - amanchester Jan 21, 16:52 7
        
        I wonder if Conan fans just took it for granted that he'd be around. -- nm - Reagen Jan 21, 16:54 6
        
        Absolutely they did. People love Conan way more than they watch Conan. -- nm - TFox Jan 21, 17:37
        
        I think the schedule of late night tv is bad for many people. I am going out of my way to watch lately. -- nm - amanchester Jan 21, 16:58 1
        
        I don't have a TV in the bedroom, and my living room doesn't exactly have the proper complement of furniture to be comfortable ... - Beryllium Jan 21, 16:59
        
        I'm a big conan fan ... but late night TV is just not normally something I have time for. - Beryllium Jan 21, 16:56 2
        
        ::looks down board:: no wonder you're exhausted. ;) - - b. Jan 21, 16:59 1
        
        I had a cold for a couple days a few weeks ago ... it actually got out of my system *very* quickly, which makes me happy -- nm - Beryllium Jan 21, 16:59

- WOW. Jay's reaction was priceless. -- nm - nubby Jan 21, 16:43
for Bond: When I lived in Queens I had the rubber parts stolen from my wipers several times. - loosilu Jan 21, 16:37 2
- Well, I can see the rubber parts being stolen if someone doesn't want to buy new ones. But the metal too? I wonder how long that takes to remove. -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Jan 21, 16:39 1
  - oh, they were useless as wipers. they literally took only the rubber. - loosilu Jan 21, 16:40
I seriously want to be chauffeured home today. Exhausted. Don't want to deal with the bus. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 21, 16:35 10
- i take cabs on those nights. -- nm - Andie Jan 21, 16:39 7
  - I'm considering walking -- nm - Beryllium Jan 21, 16:39 6
    - (I realize it's incongruous with being exhausted, but I'm hoping it would get my energy up) -- nm - Beryllium Jan 21, 16:39 5
      - I would be walking every night. Buses make me carsick in no time flat. -- nm - loosilu Jan 21, 16:42 2
        
        Wouldn't that be bus sick? -- nm - Dano Jan 21, 17:04
        
        If I read a book, I feel that way ... or 20% of the time when I'm using my iPhone ... but otherwise, I don't get carsick on the bus -- nm - Beryllium Jan 21, 16:48
      - you're close enough? do that. -- nm - Andie Jan 21, 16:41 1
        
        well, it takes about an hour -- nm - Beryllium Jan 21, 16:47
- I will chauffeur you. -- nm - Misheard Peter Gabriel Jan 21, 16:38
- someone out there needs chauffeur's choice and chauffeured veggies -- nm - lone canadian leafs fan Jan 21, 16:36
