Why is an "Assault Weapons" Ban even on the table?

The fact that you are using stats from the 1920's of all things to try and make a point about gun control is hillarious in itself.

Wow, $100 hold for buying $30 gas.

This isn't a US specific thing at all. If you use pay at the pump in Canada anywhere, the same hold on your card will happen, no matter the gas company. In BC, you are not allowed to do what you describe (pay at the kiosk). With the recent drive away attendant death in Toronto, laws are probably...

Connecticut School shooting!

Deterrence against the British from invasion is a benefit. Quite frankly though I fail to see the modern relevance of such an ancient amendment created in an era when slavery was the norm, and witch hunts and tar and feathering were still happening. Deterrence might seem like a benefit, but it...

Connecticut School shooting!

http://www.motherjones.com/politics/2012/07/mass-shootings-map Here's a great article with tons of data about the mass killings that happened in the US in the past 30 years. The biggest surprise (or lack of surprise) was just how many guns were purchased legally, so easily by people who had...

Wow, $100 hold for buying $30 gas.

It's been that way for pap transactions for ages. It's a mystery how so many people still don't understand how pay at the pump works. The pump doesn't know how much you wish to fill up, and needs to ensure you have the funds available before you actually pump it, so a preauthorization is done on...

WWII Question

Who said they didn't lob shells? It makes no sense to do an attack solely with sea artillery who are litterally sitting ducks from planes and submarines, and for one, those land batteries and cannons can shoot back. Oh, and ship artillery from far away isn't exactly going to be that accurate...

5 days from fundamentally transforming America

I think I see the back of the head of someone who might be black or latino in one of those pictures. Or maybe its someone from Florida.

Cilantro: love it or hate it?

Replace tomatoes with tomatillos, add seranno, and put lots of cilantro, and you have a killer green authentic salsa

i feel like going back to 1994

Same, won it too :p Free rentals for a year (well 2 a month or something). I did all my tries on the same go though, which was a really bad idea since I didn't maximize points at all. I should have done one to see how the competition was going to be, then do the last 2 a week later after knowing...

in Canada, today is 11/9

dd/mm/yyyy is mainly a french thing not specific to Quebec. Well not really, mm/dd/yyyy is a silly American backwards thing similar to the Imperial system while the rest of the world uses dd/mm/yyyy. Even Britain uses dd/mm/yyyy. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Date_format_by_country The...

Scrambled eggs

I have my eggs like that made all the time, but with whipped cream or milk instead of creme freche. Spread over toast. It's the technique that gives most of its fluffiness, the cream and butter mainly adds extra flavour. Frankly you can use greek yogourt, whipped cream, sour cream, creme freche...

2012 Heatwave, 46 dead so far. I was almost #47. NOW WITH VIDEO!

Tea in general is quite good for you. Sweet tea on the other hand is called sweet for a reason, tons of sugar and they can have as much calories as a large fries from McDonalds. Caffeine is a diuretic and causes you to pee more when taken in higher amounts, 1 litre of tea has quite a large...

2012 Heatwave, 46 dead so far. I was almost #47. NOW WITH VIDEO!

It's your body telling you that you are feeding it trash, not that your body is fragile. You ate total crap, then 'exercised' on a super hot day? 32 oz of sweet tea is like a litre of coke, did you seriously drink all that in one sitting? That type of meal would also tell me you may be on the...
