I haven't been around a lot of hay bales in a while, but back in the 60's and 70's hay bales were bound together with steel wire. The machine that we towed through the fields to pick up the cut hay and make the bales was stocked with spools of... wait for it... "baling wire"
As long as you don't get involved in a trial against the no-fly list, you're probably OK.

You have a local video rental store? I haven't seen one of those in my area since Blockbuster closed.
I am apathetic to your outrage.
Am I doin' it right?
Heh. I had one of those.
Not nearly as disturbing as this, sold as a kid's party game in Japan, IMO.
If a U.S. citizen was killed, then the U.S. has a diplomatic wedge into the investigation. "We are looking into what happened to our people."
If if no U.S. citizen is involved, then everyone inside and outside would be perfectly justified in telling the U.S. to keep their nose out of it. (Not that the U.S. would follow that advice.)
Missle: In the beginning, there was darkness. And the darkness was without form, and void.
Pilot: What the hell is he talking about?

"I ate at this restaurant. They clean it. It has decorations. It had service. I had a meatball sandwich. The meatballs were made of beef. I went home and went to bed."
Translation: "I really wish I hadn't eaten here. The place was filthy, the decor is horrible and the service was terrible. The meatball sandwich I had was disgusting. The menu said it was made with beef, but I question whether that is actually the case. After eating here, I felt sick."
everybody needs to have more than one passport
Although it's been a while, I've looked around a bit, and it seems as if, if you are a natural born citizen of the USA, your options of getting a passport (normally requiring citizenship) from any other country are next to nil. The exceptions would be the countries that allow you to claim citizenship simply by showing that you are a descendant of a citizen of that country (I believe Mexico falls into that category).

Hey, everyone, the government says that what it's doing is OK. At least we got that settled and we can all stop worrying about it.
while their methods were "close to the line of constitutional reasonableness," they were used for good reason
Hey, I think I heard of a road that you can pave with those good intentions.
Anything found in the course of a legal search is fair game for prosecution.
So if they enter your house with a warrant to search for drugs and find that body you've been keeping in the freezer, you're hosed.
Does anyone remember that, at one time, the big promise of technology and automation was that we would be able to reduce the workweek for Joe Workerbee?
Somewhere along the way the goal of tech has become to employ as few people as possible, preferably with lower skills so you don't have to pay them as much.
