Or he was drunk. Or high. Or had a suspended license. Or a warrant. Or was an "undocumented worker". Or any number of things that would lead the guy to flee the scene, even if he wasn't the at fault party. I mean, my experience tells me that the driver likely was at fault, but we really don't know, and there can be a ton a reasons why someone would take off.

Well, there were at least 6 ships named "Enterprise" in the US Navy, and the likelihood is that when Roddenberry was choosing the a name for his fictional vessel, he named it after either the WW2 Carrier (which was the most decorated warship in US history) or the newer Enterprise which was the US's first nuclear powered carrier. So pretty much, the shuttle was named after a US Navy ship, albeit indirectly.

OK, show me an industrial pump that'll last 45 years with no maintenance.

Yeah, except the term was coined a long time ago when the insecticide being applied was in powder form, hence the "dusting" name.

And yet it ranks in the top 20. Then you have a state like California that spends way more money, yet comes in in the bottom 20. And having gone to high school in Texas in a very conservative and extremely religious town, I never saw anything at all regarding creationism in biology class. Although not a whole hell of alot of evolution either. On the other hand, I did get handed chick tracts more than once from fellow students regarding evolution, which I did appreciate for the comedic value. However, while attending grad school in biology at a university in California, I came to the realization that most California students had an extremely poor understanding of evolution. Point being, evolution is covered so poorly, even in strongly secular, left wing places like California, that complaining about the effect that religious nuts have on it in conservative areas is pretty much pointless.

Netcraft confirms it!

Or perhaps, a utopian future where the amoral sociopaths aren't allowed to hold public office?

Well, then those viagra emails would be really embarrassing.

Bitch is not sexist in the same way that bastard or asshole is not sexist.

Well, I don't imagine that his fitness reports have been all that great over the last three years.

Yeah, I'm sure the Republican rural voters will be highly upset when they don't get their junk mail anymore.
