Re: Tesla Death Machines - Where is the Outrage?

Sure, till the boss figures out he can schedule meetings during that time and you have no excuse not to attend. It already happens now - Bluetooth in cars already exists. I've no problem with that, though, it's when they make it so that it's a video call and not just a phone conference that will bu...

Re: Tesla Death Machines - Where is the Outrage?

Agreed. I'm looking forward to every car being fully automated so I can kick my feet up and relax on the drive to work. That, or they perfect the single pilot drones so I can fly myself to work skirting over the treetops. That would work too. Darn Luddites like that guy who started this thread is s...

Re: Kerry Fails Again-Iran Talks Extended-No Agreement In Sight

Stop it, it was never an arms-control deal. There were literally numerous places, under the agreement, where we were not allowed to go, and even the places we could go there were such provisions in place in terms of advance notice that it was ineffectual. It was a window-dressing deal, it sounded g...

One of the two weddings I was at this weekend was just like the one you are describing. It was more for the parents to show off, then about the bride and groom.

True, and didn't mean to write it up as a either/or situation. For me personally if it wasn't for familial or societal obligations I probably wouldn't show up.

Re: Concerned Catholics

Catholic funerals are almost as long as Catholic weddings.... First of all, they tend to be no more than an hour, and typically shorter, and besides, why would you want to rush either of them? You get married once (well, you hope to) and you get buried once (again, you hope to) so why skip to the e...

Re: Blue Wave 2018

The last two Democratic presidents were fairly decent at job creation and the Republicans aren't exactly knights in shining armour when it comes to wages, offshoring, etc. It might have as much to do with a tendency to be out of touch and lack of charismatic leadership on the Democratic side. It's ...
