Upvote for "because highest purpose of science is the search for knowledge, truth, and a greater understanding of the world around us."

They should have stuck with the simple retort "what if you're wrong and _____ religion is right?" because the caller clearly couldn't imagine himself being wrong. "But i lead a good christian life" doesn't work when you're standing before Zeus or the Invisible Pink Unicorn.

I vote for 2010's rules to include: "Do whatever you want to your car you just have to tell the other teams." I want to see some crazy innovation.

The pay for a job follows simple supply and demand. If the job is a low skill job, then there is a very high supply, which drives the pay for the job down. The minimum wage laws causes economic inefficiencies because it sets an artificial floor on what an employer can pay for a job.
That said, I understand that everyone deserves to have enough money to live. My radical idea (in summary) is that we set welfare to be barely enough to get by, and then we give it to everyone, even the employed. Next, eliminate minimum wage. Finally, set a flat income tax. If you work out the math, the net result is effectively a progressive income tax. Everyone gets enough to live, and working becomes a means of improving your life style, status, and luxuries. I call it the "Welfare for Everyone Flat Tax Plan".


Let me guess - you've never had to work to survive before? Mom and dad pay the way?

Ah, anything Alton Brown gets an upvote from me - can't get enough!

Looks like this is the same video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jdtHY8RyALQ

a little curious that this video is suddenly *dead.

I love how they handcuff the attorney. Always the first reaction is to show "who's in charge"... Who cares who's in the wrong.

The tags made me laugh more than the video. Excellent.

I'll take your fuck you then, that dog was in a dead run to bite. Dogs typically stop five feet or so in front of you and bark if they are doing it for show, if they're going to bite you they don't slow down until they have a mouth full, like this dog was.


Or he could just be going to jump on the guy and lick him. All of my dogs have done this. Without audio it's hard to tell what mood the dog was in but regardless the woman had a point: he could have just gotten back in his car.

"My mom was married to my dad..."

Glad we got that out of the way.

"... who is Mexican. So explain to me how she's racist."

Is that how it works?! Sweet. I've got an Indian friend, so i guess now i can join the KKK and it'll all be cool with them other minorities?

Idiots.

Just drive away... no one saw...

These executives have no grip on reality. These people need to be taught a simple lesson - you don't get everything you want.

WTF. And i thought Americans were the blood thirsty ones.

This is the woman that will likely be president if McCain gets elected... She's barely a better speaker than Bush and sounds much less informed. Yet somehow people think this IMPROVES McCain's chances of winning? It's like they haven't even listened to her speak... Maybe they're counting on the perverted old men vote who just want to wank it to the state of the union address.
