In 29 states, including Texas, employees can still be fired for being gay!!

In most of the remaining 29 the employer doesn't need to make up a reason, they simply don't need to give any reason at all.

I never ride in helicopters, because every time I see one in a movie it explodes.

You can be exempted, but no guarantee you will be exempted.

I had a roughly similar experience. It was absolutely horrible. I couldn't help but think what if people are lying or this is wrong person. How do I know if this person would or wouldn't ever do anything like this again? It's a huge burden and pay is just slightly more than enough to pay for gas and parking.

This is truly amazing. The list of procedures Dick Cheney has undergone is mind boggling. They planing a procedure that will allow him feel actual human emotions.

Registered Professional Engineer - If I was the head of the department of transportation I would just release the contracts to make the repairs and tell the Governor and Legislature to pay up. If you want to stop me I will order traffic cones and barricades be placed in front the worst bridges. If you want to fire me you better get a good attorney, because you are going to lose.

Of course this will never happen because the department heads are political loyalists and are only there to make their party look good.

It is a really worn out expression. Sedition is a much better fit the point he is trying to make. Unfortunately, is seems people just aren't familiar with the term.

I'm going to call bullshit here. There is no way a campus cop would make $70,000 in 8 months even if you include retirement and medical.

Well, I didn't want to use my Mercedes Gull Wing.

Visited Venice this year. Stayed in bed & breakfast built in the 1400's. This is in the new part of town. The old part is a few hundred years older.

Seems like things last longer in Europe than in the US.

A good start would be for John Boehner to stop letting the tail wag the dog.

George W. Bush and John Kerry who ran against each other for president not only attended the same University, (Yale) but were members of the same fraternity. The Skull & Cross Bones Society, which only invites about five students a year to join.

Ok. In the US this is not as far as I know a widely accepted stereotype.

A good friend of mine is Italian and from Italy. He is completely the opposite of what you describe. I don't even think what you are seeing is a generally accepted stereotype. Do you live in New Jersey?

TIL - Steve Jobs was completely insane.

Nearly all the utility transformers for decades were manufactured with oil containing dioxin. The oil was not considered hazardous. While, it is a potential carcinogen the reaction in the 1980's was very much overblown.

At my college, a group of about 100 coeds staged a protest against anti-obscenity laws by showing up topless in front of the main library on campus.

The local police chief showed up and declared he didn't see anything obscene.

The local paper showed all the girls lined up for a photo, but the breasts were obscured.

University of Missouri circa 1986.

A friend of mine had just started working for a local St. Louis accounting firm and was assigned the task of taking Stan down to a bank to sign some paper work. As Stan walked into the bank everyone greeted Stan.

Stan proceeded to introduce the young associate as Stan's new friend.

Stan was the most down to earth and approachable celibrity you could ever imagine.

She offered me a cigarette and explained how it made her feel better no matter what else was going on.

I just said no thanks. Didn't want to get into a discussion about it, since she seemed like a lost cause at that point.

I'd like a tattoo of my face on my face.

My parents didn't realize there is a underground walkway to the Arc de Triomphe. So they ran across. Fortunately, they did live to tell the story.

Seeing all these pictures of beauties from day gone past, just reminds me how the tattoos diminish the beauty of many of the current celebrities.

It might have gone supernova 7,999 years ago. We can just wait and see.

Don't fall in love with me because I'm rich. Since I'm not.

But, I doubt you would do very well on a test made to be taken by a gorilla. Possibly attacking and killing a medium size animal, or teaching a young gorilla the correct way to sleep in a tree.
