Gay marriage sickens me. I am embarrassed to be of partial Irish decent.

And, as expected, this wasn't a mental health issue. This was a pre-planned extortion exercise involving more than one person in holding the victims captive, torturing their son, and arranging for a pile of cash to be delivered. Accomplices, helping out this trained welder who new the family in question would be good targets because he used to work for the victim's company.

What are you talking about? The police say this was a planned event carried about by more than one person. He didn't "snap," he set up a captivity/torture scenario in order to try to extort $40K in cash from a former employer, and had help from accomplices. You're going to have to find another way to feel sorry for the crew that did this.

People tired of other people apologizing on behalf of the Obama administration, and those already tired of Hillary weasel-wording on the subject.

Somebody at Google wanted some beer money, and convinced their manager somehow to let them file. You get a bonus of a few hundred bucks at most companies for contributing to the wallpaper collection of patents in the hall the CEO likes to escort visitors through.

because Google?

No, scratch that. It doesn't work anymore.

Do they sell 2600 on Amazon? I have these visions of adverts recommending 2600 to me popping up all over the web as I browse.

Of course he wants your love. He's a surrogate for that real child that you have in cryo-prservation.

...or Teddy Ruxpin.

This seen like yet another idea already done to death probably which tricks and techniques or techniques that are similarly ancient.

More USPTO run amok nonsense...

The narrative for Hillary Clinton is "she hasn't been convicted of anything so she's electable."

It's so sad that there is a portion of the American public that will fall for that.

There are so many thousands of other people better suited to be president.

Did I type 'thousands' up there?? OMG.

Probably those damned spammers got ahold of her addy the first sixteen times, but things finally calmed down.

That funny smell is something else. Look! It's probably coming from that pony over there!
