That's funny. You obviously don't have the slightest clue as to who holds the power over other humans. But thanks for confirming you haven't heard a word I've said all along.

Getting back to the original post, the only real tradition marriage holds is that of property transfers. Your 'opinion' and your amendments represent a very short 'tradition'. And it is a very bigoted one based on superstitious beliefs. You have no right to decide what kinds of people can sign a binding contract. It is none of your business. Learn to butt out. Or learn to accept being called what you are.

XP or AMD?

In the cloud, or any other computer network, you have no privacy. What is there to explain, other than you voted for this?

The paperwork is merely a ceremonial formality.

There, now we don't have to keep on posting about our world under surveillance every day. Let's post better news on how people are defeating it, if there is any to be found.

But if the Chrome browser gets padded out with a WP/spreadsheet package, it's very unlikely that I'll ever use it again.

If you open it in a new window, you can pretend they are separate products.

Yes, the government is just supposed to put the money on the dresser and leave...

You are a textbook case of distraction and obfuscation... and projection.

We tell the temperature by creating an 'absolute' zero. 0 is cold, 100 is hot. Where is the problem?

Since you didn't see it the first time, I will repeat it for you: ...if you voted to restrict the the right to a marriage contract to a specific group of people, then you are a bigot... There is no 'smear' in that statement. It is a mathematical truth. As absolute as man can produce. I'm not sure what the term is when it's systematic in a society (meaning you can be doing it unconsciously, which is usually the case, and so explains the defensiveness on your part), so 'bigot' has to do.

I cheerfully voted for Virginia's Constitutional Amendment that marriage means what it means a few years ago.

This is what I'm talking about. Your denial notwithstanding. The truth is not a smear.

Loving vs. Virginia - Look it up. It's not much of a stretch.

You keep on thinking I'm 'accusing' you of something (again the projection). That's not true. I'm simply reminding you that you are a follower of culture, acting as any other social animal does. We all motivated by exactly the same thing.

Actually I think you're reading too much Rand Paul, and not even the good stuff.

It's kinda hard to trash-talk the other team during a sales cycle if officially the captains of the two teams are best buddies.

Oh no. Lawyers and politicians do this all the time. All fodder for the tabloid press to gobble up and distract us from the dirty deals.

Shouldn't be too difficult:

You mean besides ADB, ADC, SCSI, Firewire, Mini Display Port, and Thunderbolt? Yeah, you're probably right.

That has always been Apple's forte, and now is its lone distinguishing 'feature'...

Does it really matter that this was done with explosives? Would you feel better if he stabbed 237 people to the same effect?

Gloria: "Do you know that sixty percent of all deaths in America are caused by guns?"

Archie: "Would it make you feel any better, little girl, if they was pushed out of windows?"

Killing is always a crime. The question is whether it is forgivable or not.

Do they really want their own personnel to be less informed...?

It is dangerous to 'know too much'... or even to ask too many questions
