If, as a car driver, I pass a cyclist, and then reach a red light, why does the cyclist always ride along the right-hand side of all the cars in the line and go straight to the front of the line?

Because they're inconsiderate idiots with a deathwish?

No, really, I'm a cycle commuter, and that very behaviour drives me *batty*. It's a fantastic way to get nailed by right-turning traffic at an intersection or cars that drift right as they slow down, it pisses people off, and it's just generally a dick move.

The correct thing to do is, upon approaching stopped traffic, to move fully into the lane and take up a normal spot just like a vehicle. Unfortunately, too many cyclists see themselves as exceptions to pesky rules like that (and, for the record, I do selectively break rules, like running stop signs at unoccupied intersections, but there are certain behaviours I absolutely refuse to participate in, and this is one of them).

If I read Sports Illustrated correctly (though this is from 2006), not even 1/3 of US Americans watch the Super Bowl (~95M out of ~320M) and maybe another few million around the globe outside the US.

That makes the claim that "nearly everyone watches" it a little vacuous.

"In the marines, they teach us not to piss on our hands."

And the Air Force guy says "They didn't need to teach us that. We learned that around age 3"

Seriously? Are you seriously going to start this? Cellular phones cannot, in anyways what-so-ever, cause brain cancer. The radio waves are not capable of altering humans on a cellular(no pun intended) level, which is what would have to happen in order to cause cancer. We had this discussion in my Genetics class last semester and our professor decided to start a class project. In this project, we were to pour over data and find a correlation either proving or countering to stance that cellular phones are capable of causing cancer. After 5 weeks of intense studying, it was discovered that cellular phones are not capable of causing cancer, unless a phone manufacturer decided to power a device with a nuclear power source. Of course, then you could make the argument that cellular phones can cause cancer...except that it would be the power source and not the phone itself.

Here in Denmark, we have this thing called visitation zones. In visitation zones, the police are allowed to search and question you without cause.

The three biggest cities in Denmark; Copenhagen, Odense and Ã...rhus are all visitaion zones and have been for some while now, and we have no idea when this will stop.

Still is against our constitution, but apparently that dosent matter.
