Something similar was proposed in the 1980's: protect ourselves from thermonuclear weapons by throwing up big clouds of soot. To the best of my knowledge, it was not seriously pursued.

The government, in trying to block lawyers' access to the 14 detainees, effectively asserts that the detainees' experiences are a secret that should never be shared with the public.

Carrying this argument a step further, it appears that Bush & Co. are revealing important secrets to the detainees. This is treason, yes?

That said, I heard a (possibly apocryphal) story passed down from a friend in law school now about S.R. Siddarth and Larry Sabato that's pretty funny. Apparently, to get into Sabato's class, you have to write an essay explaining why he should let you in. S.R. Siddarth's essay? One page. "I AM MACACA."

Not apocryphal. (See the last two paragraphs. He didn't even write one page, just the three words.)... [more]

The thing that always prevents me from seriously considering camper tops is that, if you want to go somewhere (like down the road for some supplies, or over to another trailhead), you need to pack up your whole camp to move the truck.

You want one of these.

Lengthy list of viola jokes.

A violist came home and found his house burned to the ground. When he asked what happened, the police told him "Well, apparently the conductor came to your house, and ..."

The violist's eyes lit up and he interrupted excitedly, "The conductor? Came to my house?"

I was there last month. I've been raving about the meat since coming back, everyone thinks I'm nuts. Now I can show my friends this thread - maybe I'm not so nuts after all.

It's not just the beef that's good - I also had Patagonian lamb, goat, pork, veal, suckling pig, duck, turkey, chicken. Everything was phenomenal! Especially the lamb. I've never been sure if my taste buds have deteriorated over the years, or if the flavor has been bred out of American meat. Now I... [more]
