McBoinkens, I have visual migraines every few weeks... thankfully, I only get the visuals and none of the pain.

This video is actually pretty terrifying. I tend to think her brain just got out of sync with her mouth and her communications capability, versus any kind of actual bad event. Pressure, stress, performance anxiety etc.

Whats weird is if you type it in, and then re-arrange every 2nd for 3rd letter, it repeats a message about a ferret crawling up her leg.

Did he 'ferret' out the source of the discs always jamming?

*fake I just went and ripped open my PS3 hoping to find a ferret, and all I found was a bunch of electronic looking shit.

It looks like a coffin for the ferret.

I used to have a ferret, loads of fun around the house and for the guests.
But he stank bad.

Heh, frisky ferrets will actually behave like that (bouncing and all) on any surface. The trampoline might not have had much to do with it. They're not really heavy enough to get a lot of rebound from the trampoline, anyway.

Fair enough. Ghengis Khan just can't compete with Jon Stewart. Would have been a hulluva interesting discussion in that poll though.>> ^dag:

This poll is admittedly borderline - but we have a he'll of a lot of Daily Show videos on here - so I thought it would pass.
In a related whinge- must we always run the precedence test against anything posted? My kids are always ferreting out potentially impartial or unjust parental decisions. Maybe it's human nature.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

Very good point Tymberwulf. Awhile back I tried to start a poll about who the most influential person in world history was, and @dag removed it because it didn't fit guidelines or something.>> ^Tymbrwulf:
Ah, so the poll can also be used for useless sensationalist polls? Duly noted.
Next week's poll.
"Do you think Lindsey Lohan should go to jail?"
Followed by
"Is Brad and Angelina's relationship going to last? Have we seen the last of Jennifer?"

@NetRunner,
From third party experience and personal observations of the system, the checks and balances need to be returned into the system. Like I stated earlier, the police department refused to comply with written orders from a judge. And this same judge when shown the paperwork the police department wanted signed said that he'd never seen that paperwork before and that he himself wouldn't have signed it under any circumstance.

There's just too much complication to the system, each part of the 3 wanting to take the powers of the other two upon itself while being completely kept out of the loop as to the other branches goings on. No handful of people have the time to check out the other goings on when they are so busy trying to get more power for themselves.

They need to implement a system in which laws that are reviewed and thrown out when a new law takes over it's function, or if the law is outdated with the times and requires an update to create an update that doesn't require broad interpretation of every word in it. Lots of interpretation slowly becomes the new "spirit" of the law that was never intended to be used in such ways. A lot of the new anti-terror laws were used in such a way to bust drug dealers, hackers, etc that had no affiliation with terrorists.....simply because this interpretation and power struggle has went on for so long that it's second nature. The real problem with this second nature attitude is that more often than not the judicial branch takes a "blind trust" attitude toward police submitted evidence and reports so the check against corruption/common sense/legality there is lost completely without a lawyer to point it out.

And this leads into that you are granted representation in the constitution, they should make sure your representation is fit for duty and has the necessary information to give you a fair trial. Not delay getting you a public defender until the third court date and you only meet him 5 minutes before you go up in front of a judge. There's no reasonable expectation there of anything besides having a very limited time to make some very big decisions concerning plea offers and the implications of one action over the other.

It says you are granted a speedy trial, not that the courts are granted a speedy trial....but right now, the courts put forth the minimal effort but maximize your time investment if you don't admit guilt/pay the fee early on. Hell even small claims court takes multiple months to get you in, and they will hear your trial in about 5 minutes with no one else waiting to go up after you. Saw my dad get screwed there by someone because he was expecting the court to read the submitted material, other guy didn't even show up. And the mistake was the police departments fault for telling him false information (overstepping authority), court didn't care that the police department had aided this other person in essentially stealing 1500 bucks in costs due to their mishandling. This particular court would not allow you to file in small claims court and bring in a lawyer, you had to represent yourself if you were going into small claims. And they would not take the time to ferret out more information that may be pertinent to the trial because as soon as the question was asked the judge said they read it, even though by the comments it was a very brief reading if read at all. This kind of system encourages upstanding citizens to not file to recoup costs because it's time consuming with almost no return for their efforts even if it's a legitimate claim. But allows for criminals and fly-by nights to rip everyone off a few grand at a time and move on. ESPECIALLY if the person who committed the crime is on government support because they won't force them to pay it out of their benefits and you can't take their tax returns until they cash it..and if it never makes it into their bank account you can't get it period.

On the other hand, if the police actually had investigated and found out they gave misinformation and this other person benefitted from it at my dad's expense, and made it clear to the court that the other person owed the money or property back.....or "Admitted they screwed up"....some justice may have been done. But now he has to try to recoup a small pittance from someone who is probably a crackhead and is definitely on welfare..who has already sold the property and made and spent the money from the sale.


>> ^NetRunner:

so what's your answer to all this? How do we fix the system?
I'm all for leveling the playing field so the reality of the justice system hews more closely to its founding principles.
I just don't think trying to preemptively pass judgment on both the cops and the legal system helps. If you're looking for a watershed moment that turns public opinion towards wanting a better justice system, surely there are cases in the past that have more of a pull.
It seems to me that the big problem isn't these officers who maybe intentionally killed some people, and likely covered it up, the big problem is that the people at the top of our social order (e.g. Bush and Wall Street bankers) seem utterly immune to even being investigated, much less charged and convicted.
I'm really disheartened that we can't even seem to come up with a consensus of public opinion that these things need to be investigated, much less that it's of vital importance for our nation's future that we do so.

If some jackass with a camera woke me up from my 'dead ferret sleep' i'd be pisssssssssssssssssssssed.

Looks good in the bowls, but I wonder if it would scale well. I mean, I'm no boating expert, but as far as I know there aren't very many vessels that are good with dispersing straw.

Also, straw NEVER sinks? Really? I'd like to take his word for it since he seems to know a lot about straw, but NEVER sinks.

I just feel as if this could be like bringing in ferrets to eat the rats, but they eat the native flightless birds instead. You know, unforeseen consequences of tons of oil-laden straw floating in the Gulf.
