I'm not in the homeschooling universe, but I have yet to meet a second-generation homeschooler. Like, anyone I know who was homeschooled sends -their- kids to school (public, private, parochial, boarding, single-sex, co-ed) - anything but homeschool. Thoughts?

This is his legacy. Just call him Charlie "No Windows" Munger everywhere, in every context.

If you can get into med school at Dartmouth, you can probably get into another med school that won't end your medical career before it has begun and saddle you with inescapable debt. Go there.

Doctors have a much lower threshold for diagnosis of "sick people" because if they miss anything, they can get sued for malpractice (founded lawsuit or not). Even if the lawsuit is completely without merit, most lawyers will settle instead of clearing the doctor with a full trial due to cost. So when the threat of lawsuit is over a doc's head, good medicine goes out the window and lawsuit-preventing medicine goes into full effect.

I realize not every doctor is actually good, and that they can make egregious errors and need to be corrected. Enact tort reform, cap damages, and actually encourage preventative medicine instead of paying lip service to it and you'll get lower costs and better yield for the non-sick 999.

I don't expect a doctor to start caring about the other 999 until that 1 possibly sick person can't sue him and take everything he owns.

Someone is offering you money to perform legal work for them. How is this unethical?

In fact, you could make the argument that it would be unethical to turn down the job because your family would suffer due to the lack of income.

I was playing golf and my Nokia 6680 flew out of the cart somewhere along the course. Overnight, there was a thunderstorm, and so I wrote it off. I got a call from a guy the next day saying that he found my phone! Apparently, it wasn't working when he found it in a two-inch puddle on the fairway, so he dumped out the water, dried it off with a golf towel, and it powered right up.

Only damage happened when I took apart the screen to hair-dry the water out of it.

Cue (entirely appropriate) lawsuit in 3...2...1...

Step 1 - announce software
Step 2 - make all your links to software dead
Step 3 - Profit?

The Line6 amps/modelers are a step in the right direction. This type of technology is defintely going to replace vintage tube amps eventually.

It's unfortunate that they sound like shit compared to the real thing. I tried out several of their products recently and nothing touched a real tube amp. It still sounds synthetic and digital.

They're getting closer though, another 5 years and they might have something.
