If anyone is desperately looking for hot dog flavored chips, try looking online for Shearer’s “Home Run Hot Dog” flavored chips… I, too, was bitten by the Hot Dog Potato chip bug a few years ago and when I found out about them, I ordered 5 bags from Shearer’s online without ever having tried their brand… Got them, tried them, shared with friends, everyone loves them.

‘Larceny is a crime in which a person intentionally takes and carries away the property of another without permission with the intent to permanently deprive that person of their interest in that property.’
The intention to permanently deprive comes into both UK and US and there has always been an issue of interpretation on this matter. Is it theft if I stole a season ticket to Man U until the end of the season and then gave it back? I didn’t ever intend to permanently deprive and I gave it back so technically it’s not theft… However, the value of the ticket for all the games that were missed has been permanently stolen away; this therefore would come under the definition of theft.
An argument to take into consideration that goes against this view is whether or not the illegal downloader would have purchased the item anyway even if they could not have downloaded it for free? If the answer is ‘no’ then can one really argue that they have lost out on payment as the payment would not have been made whether the download was made legally or illegally.

Comment on Gray Davis Mocks Arnold’s Accent by Tom Tooker

1- “The draft was not implemented in Vietnam until 1969″…?.. odd, in ‘67 I had a low lottery (draft) number. Knew I would probably
get it. Enlisted in May’67 so that I could get the training I wanted instead of being drafted and becoming a grunt. Two weeks into
basic training at Ft. Polk La. , bingo, I receive my draft notice. I was RA (enlisted), all of the US (draftees) stayed at Polk to go to
“TigerLand” jungle school, Vietnam…
2- “He attained the rank of Captain,”….. if you have a college degree in anything, you are awarded, given the rank of 1st Lt, then Capt.
‘Attained’ makes it sound like he actually did something of significance…
3- “was awarded the Bronze Star*. ” But no one can say WHY he was awarded the Star…What did he do..? I remember it well during
his re-call campaign… Why Gray..? For What Gray..? NO ANSWER. Think John Kerry…..

I served in Vietnam 19 months…mid-68 to early 70 ..and it occurred to me that we changed XO’s often.. So I asked the “Old Man” “Top
Kick”…(The senior NCO) why the change?.. His reply…” They do 6 months and then cycle out.. build their military resum’e..” Looked it
up one time..Davis and Kerry each had 6 months or less in Vietnam. Coincidence..? If I can find it again, and I will, one of them only had 5
months… CO=Company Commander, XO=Executive Officer

The reality is that you have to talk to people. You can whine and cry all you want and complain and crawl in the dirt like a slug. The reality is you have to talk. You can ignore things if you want to and imagine that things are going to work themselves out, but they don’t.

I can only hope that something devastating happens soon to wipe this planet out of all human life forms.

The animals have it right, humans don’t.

The people in this life are pathetic.

Comment on Depriving the Third World of Flush Toilets by Jim

Jim — Mon, 24 Jan 2011 18:04:56 +0000

I’ve been working in Haiti for close to 3 years now. Even in Port au Prince, before the earthquake, flush toilets were not common. First you need a reliable water supply, then the appropriate infrastructure, including water distribution and waste treatment. Who do you expect to pay for all of this? Desalinization? Very expensive, and again, who will pay? You? Your fans? If you’re willing, awesome. Start a campaign to raise the money to accomplish what you think should be done, and see where it goes. As for the supposed hazards of composting toilets, check out the work being done at oursoil.org.

Comment on Michael Jackson: Liar by Shanella

Shanella — Tue, 04 Jan 2011 11:15:49 +0000

I feel really sorry for the poor King of Pop! He should have peed into that nasty officer’s face! Also if Michael had been locked in, why couldn’t he have simply broken the door down???!!! I would have done it, had it been me!
I could have killed those nasty cops for what they did to my poor Michael Jackson!
