  1. fixed. Why do we care so much about helping Canada get their oil to China?
  2. Ok, if jobs are a concern. Wouldn't these jobs just be temp jobs, while at the same time killing trucker jobs?
  3. We should stay the **** clear of the entire area.
  4. Oh man, you guys are really obsessed with Obama. Thanks for linking the video though, I enjoyed it.
  5. From a newsweek article. http://www.newsweek.com/whats-driving-conservatives-mad-about-new-history-course-264592 Perhaps most dispiriting to Krieger was the framework’s treatment of World War II. “There’s no discussion whatsoever of the valor or heroism of American soldiers,” Krieger said on the call. He then quoted from the framework: “Wartime experiences such as the internment of Japanese Americans, challenges to civil liberties, debates over race and segregation, and the decision to drop the atomic bomb raised questions about American values.”
  6. "drivers who test positive for THC" THC can stay in the system for weeks. It doesn't mean these people were high and driving. That little detail can skew the results.
  7. Tons of great shows have been listed already, but I'll throw some love to one of my favorites. Veronica Mars It stars a young Kristen Bell playing a high school student with a gift for solving mysteries. Each episode she plays detective and solves mysteries from petty crime to more serious stuff like the murder of her best friend (Amanda Seyfried). It all has a very noir feel to it. Think of it as Sherlock Holmes meets The Maltese Falcon, all in a high school setting.
  8. The old version bothers me because it seems her right arm isn't attached to her body.
  9. Just finished Orange is the New Black. Also mid-way through season 2 of Luther.
  10. Don't Stop Me Now always reminds me of Sean of the Dead.
  11. I'm too busy collection my free government stuff these days to post on here often. Plus I'm watching a lot of tv. Mmmm... cheetos.
  12. I keep telling myself I should post more often in here. These are the movies I've seen recently. Gravity 6/10 - Shiny CG set pieces strung together with little plot or back-story. It heavily relies on Murphy's law just to keep the story moving. It is a thrill ride, but left me empty when it was over. Transformers: Dark of the Moon 4/10 - If you have seen the first two, this is more of the same. The Boys from Brazil 3/10 - Hitler Clones! Hitler Clones!!! /rolls eyes The Andromeda Strain 8/10 - A slow burn, perhaps even tedious at times. Yet, I was never bored. Tucker & Dale vs Evil 8/10 - I put this off thinking I would hate it. I was wrong. Great twist to the "cabin in the woods" type movies. Room 237 2/10 - Documentary about The Shining. There were a few points that I found interesting, but for the most part it was bad. Really REALLY bad. Dredd 9/10 - One of the better action movies I've seen in some time. It is no Blade Runner, but they created a world that I would love to see more of. Sexy Beast 6/10 - Ben Kingsley is amazing in this. The rest of the movie is very meh.
  13. Nice, someone on a Kurosawa kick. If you liked Yojimbo then I recommend its sequel Sanjuro. It is as good as Yojimbo, if not better. Also don't overlook his non-Samurai films like High and Low, Stray Dog, and Ikiru
  14. Jesus "You have leprosy? GET A JOB!!! What am I, your savior or something?"
  15. They going to find this guy dead within the week because he OD'd.
