I lived there for 5 years before migrating back to the West Coast. The larger cities (Austin and Dallas) were perfectly livable. The smaller towns though have definitely done everything they can do to live up to the uber-conservative, racist, and ignorant stereotypes foisted upon them. At the time I was dating a lovely black girl I had met in school, on campus and in the larger cities nobody shot us a second glance. As soon as we got to bumfuck country though, all bets were off...and I'm a goddamn Mexican!

Considering that I get about 10 hours out of my Nexus 7 (2012) without any issue, I seriously doubt that battery life will be the limiting factor.

I thought it was a legitimate business model.

402.336 meters

But very little actual profit.

Skillfully refuted!

Why can't it be both?

I've been stocking up on LEDs from Home Depot, also subsidized by the power company. $3 per bulb, but now I kinda want to check the Goodwill in my area. Makes me wonder how Fox News will spin this so that LEDs will be the downfall of Western civilization.

I find it doubly ironic that the tough guys out there decry our culture of "every child gets an award" but gets choked up every time they see a soldier get a bullshit medal pinned to their chest.

If they could find a way to imprison a corpoation, I'd immigrate to the UK tomorrow!

Sir, shouldn't you be strategizing with the Clippers or something?

Words never before said in the English language.

One could make the argument for targeted foreign intelligence collection. All that they've succeeded in doing so far is further eroding the already shaky reputation enjoyed by the United States. At best the NSA spins its wheels, at worst it's counter-productive to the U.S. economy.

I mean, we could tell you what we're doing, but then the terrorists would win. You don't want that...do you? Think of the baby bald eagles and amber waves of grain!

I was under the impression that one of the requirements for being a non-profit was the agreement that you wouldn't be an actionable organization. Seems to me that most of the organizations, both conservative and liberal, were rightly under the microscope.
