er, to get the chunnel operational....

2020 is still ridiculously too far away. Jeeze, it only took 6 years from initial contruction to get the flipping chunnel operations. And somehow, high speed rail between LA and SF is more difficult t...

2030? Really. 21 flipping years from now. Amazing. What vision. This is meaningless and will likely be beset with mysterious delays and funding problems until it's abandoned, or just allowed to be co...

I'd like to shamelessly draw attention to the update I've added at the top. Honestly, it defies belief. This guy is paid to offer commentary for a living, and in our paper no less, and he's that stupi...

I'm just sad no one noticed how I literally referred to Lucianne Goldberg as fossilized poop. I thought that was one hell of an insult. ...

as is frequently the case, I agree with JRB....

It certainly felt like Rumsfeld was cramming monkeys up mine......

The other graph I'm referring to is from the older article, and not the one listed here....

Okay everyone, before we Californians start taking the whaaambulance to the crybabytown suburbs, let's calm down and have a look at this: http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2008/06/09/business/200806...

I'm just glad someone is finally drawing attention to the looming threat of citywide flooding....

Am I the only one who found the phrase "Tonight In Rock: KC & The Sunshine Band" to be exceptionally ironic?...

I'm pretty sure you're right, and I'm also pretty sure that I'm having an Oklahoma moment, all putting the definite article where it doesn't belong like that. It's corrected. Now if you'll excuse me, ...

Not only that JRB, but bear in mind that the price of everything else won't go up - mysteriously, rich people don't like paying 30 bucks for coffee any more than the rest of us. They want cheap coffee...

Amcallis, what you say makes no sense. I'm not trying to be mean, but please understand, respectfully, that what you're saying is just nonsense. Like claiming that getting rid of the minimum wage will...

Yeah, I think you're taking the point too literally - my guess is that they couldn't get away with saying "Even the F8cking nazis got vactions that rocked. WTH is wrong with us?"...

Yeah I'm totally happy about it. But until we A) get sane people back in washington, B) realize our opponents are people who believe gay people should go to prison, and C) beat back their attacks once...

Here's where I get pessimistic. Now, don't get me wrong, I fully and enthusiastically support equal marriage rights. 100%. But I think the state's rights argument is a mistake. For one thing, that qu...

Padon my french, but James Frey peut manger une cuvette de pénis. Seriously....

Personally, I can't wait for the Sid Miers' Civilization IV movie. I hope they cast Zachary Quinto as the narrator....

That's really interesting, and actually makes a lot of sense having seen the finished product. I don't believe in giving art an A for effort - I either like something or I don't - but having read abou...
