Maybe Bob Dylan's up for the challenge.

I prefer the Kiwi take on the sexy-Christmas theme.

Edit - Dear God! I've confused Aussie and Kiwi! I'm going straight to heck!

In 15 or 30 years, science will give her the face she wants using stem cell-based treatments. (Assuming civilization doesn't experience a greater slow-down than we've seen already in the last year.) Her condition is temporary.

That kind of progress is happening before our eyes:

there are already free market solutions to pollution, solutions which would greatly reduce the current levels of pollution while at the same time increasing production...you just have never heard of them because you haven't looked.


Excellent... where can I buy one of these? Why aren't they more popular? I googled "free market solution to pollution" and got an episode of Libertarian-occasionally-funny-comedian/magician Penn-and-Teller's "Bullshit" in which they use an ex-GMA weatherman to contradict the general consensus of the world's scientific community and debunk a free-market solution to global warming (carbon credits).

Consider this... if the arguments you propose are really as extraordinary and easy to implement, why isn't everyone using them? There must be some nation operating under the system you are advocating, otherwise, we are all complete fucking morons, right? Which nation is implementing your wisdom?

Umm, even if there are bullet holes in the windshield and the hood, does that mean that the vehicle should be totaled? Last I heard, windshields and hoods can be replaced. Besides, I'm sure there are many bullet-riddled vehicles in Iraq whose owners did absolutely nothing wrong.

The answer to your question is a resounding "Yes." Abandoned vehicles are IEDs waiting to happen. In fact, there's an article you can read right here that talks about the army's effort to improve safety around Baghdad by removing abandoned vehicles: http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/library/news/2006/09/mil-060901-usia01.htm

If I had to guess, what happened here is that the vehicle was scheduled to be removed/destroyed anyway and the soldiers just had some fun with it first. I'm mostly amused by also a little puzzled by your reaction to this vid. Sure, there are examples of American soldiers behaving badly on the Internet. But there are far more examples of American soliders doing great things in Iraq, such as this gentleman for instance: http://abcnews.go.com/GMA/OnlyinAmerica/story?id=609346&page=1

But of course, a guy adopting a disabled boy doesn't make nearly as a good of a Sift, now does it?

The GMA correspondents always seem to slightly be on the edge of killing each other. Always entertaining.



It's not GMA, it's the Today Show.

The GMA correspondents always seem to slightly be on the edge of killing each other. Always entertaining.

What a novel, if not slightly creepy, idea.

Hmm. The fact that she served on Wal-mart's board is in the first paragraphs of her Wikipedia. I wouldn't be surprised if that's where GMA got their lead on the story. So much for "Most Investigated."

New York Times caught it though, here's their article from a year ago. http://www.nytimes.com/2007/05/20/us/politics/20walmart.html?pagewanted=1&_r=1

It's on ABC news now. They don't add much more.
