You're a special kind of stupid if you can say "the Democrats wanted to open the borders and let all the 'illegals' in. Bet you'd rather have to go out to get the mail carrying an Uzi to shoot the people in the souped-up Impala." with a straight face. https://www.ucdavis.edu/blog/c...

The Towle test is: 1) The character must generally have physical as well as conceptual qualities. 2) The character must be sufficiently delineated to be recognizable as the same character whenever it appears. It must display consistent, identifiable character traits and attributes, although the character need not have a consistent appearance. 3) The character must be especially distinctive and contain some unique elements of expression. It cannot be a stock character like a magician in standard magician garb. The Batmobile was determined to pass the test. Herbie would, by that same token, probably qualify as a character in a way that this Mustang did not.

Thanks. I was looking at the initials thinking it didn't feel right, but took the time neither to confirm nor deny.

The article doesn't say they are being hosted from DRNK, it says they've been invited to. The /. title is a poor summation, but the fact that they're not currently hosted there does not disagree with the content of the linked blog post.

a -150 (approx) day vulnerability?

You forget (or are intentionally not mentioning to seemingly strengthen your point) that the Bush tax cuts have at the same time reduced revenue, thus adding to the situation. We need to both decrease spending and at the same time increase revenues; this is the only way out of the situation.

How typical, Windows users are bringing down the average.

Last time I had to help a relative move a malware infestation I was asked what I charge for the service. My response was $150. But, I added, if you let me migrate you to a Mac, I'll waive the fee and migrate you for free...
