Well, remember, you are comparing some of the most revered people in United States history with some guy who just has a lot of money. What did Hamad do that would justify such a monument? And usually, monuments are erected by future generations as a tribute to someone. This is just some rich knucklehead who was bored.

Yeah, it was. You can just make out the name on the ship when the shuttle carrying the new cadets lifts off from the shipyards in Iowa (with Kirk and McCoy on board).

Well, I initially read the summary as, "...SCROTUM-Centaurus Arm..." so we may not be too far off.

Or maybe I watch too much sci-fi porn.

Yep. Mine too.

If this person had secured his connection and someone had broken the encryption to download illegal pornography, how likely would it have been that the law enforcement would have believed him?

I know TFA mentioned it took three days and a "forensic" analysis of his electronics before they finally really believed him, but I wonder if it wouldn't have taken longer if the signal had been encrypted. Since these law enforcement personnel couldn't be bothered to do some basic research before over-reacting, how likely would they have been to believe Barry's claims if the router had been encrypted?

Barry: "No, really, I didn't do it!"

Law Enforcement: "Don't lie to us! That's impossible! Your wireless connection is encrypted!!"

ROFLMAO!!

Quite right. I thought about reading the full story but then something shiny distracted me.

uh...what? I just read the summary. Did you expect me to actually RTFA? ;)

"Obama would already be on his way back"

Uh...in other news, he is.

This will not end well.
