While free speech is an inalienable right, like all inalienable rights, it can still be limited in certain situations, particularly when exercising your inalienable right would infringe on the inalienable rights of others. Like, the classic case of falsely shouting "Fire!" in a crowded theater...

Link, please. Cuzzzz, that's not what I've read. From the Wall Street Journal, Friday August 13, 5:12PM Congress Had Right to Bar Acorn Funding, Appeals Court Rules Congress acted within its authority when it blocked federal funding last year for community activist group Association of...

Well, I was born on Friday the 13th. I was probably born sometime between 1:00 and 1:30 PM, but the doctor clearly had a killer sense of humor, as my time of birth is stated at 1:13PM, which on a 24-hour clock is, well, you know. Thirteen is my lucky number.

People don't go to National Parks to be bombarded with handbills and free speech discussions from special interest groups. They go to National Parks to rest and recreate, and often to escape the political and religious hot button issues of the day. Those who want to use the venue to encroach on...

What do you mean you can't make this stuff up? Of course you can. Read the article and count how many times "Bush" gets mentioned.

Are you one of those who actually root for movies to tank at the box office? It would seem you want Panther to tank, and would take great pleasure if it happens. Look at the revenues and the operating expenses, look at the consolidated data. It's all there. Then take into account acquisitions...

Do you have goodwill listed on your balance sheet? But yeah, if part of your goodwill is attributed to them, you can, actually should, write it off if they do, so as to better reflect the actual value of you. There's a Good Will Hunting joke in here somewhere.

It's a warning, pure and simple, to Muslims to be aware that the Treasury Department will be watching their charitable donations, which can be significant during Ramadan, to pseudo-nonprofit organizations that may or may not have ties to terrorism.

Actually, I do know what I'm talking about. While goodwill can represent cash that was wasted on purchases in which the amount paid was too great in relationship to the tangible asset, that's not necessarily what it represents, and it's not what it represents in this financial report of Panther...

It makes you go hmmm... only if the catholic church there having rejected essentially the same offer also makes you go hmmm...

Panther acquired two global logistics companies in the last couple of years. That alone would increase revenue, and would result in the same exact ground revenue suddenly being a lower percentage than before they had the air and ocean revenues. If you look at it on the surface as you might a...

I use PDANet. Paid for it because I access a lot of secure sites, like banking. With any CDMA network, like Verizon and Sprint, you will not be able to talk on the phone and surf the Web at the same time, tethered or not. That's just a limitation of CDMA. When they fully implement 4G you'll be...

A lot of former Cardinals on the Reds, and a lot of former Reds on the Cardinals. It was Jim Edmonds, after one day with the Reds, who ended up between Baker and La Russa to keep them apart. They have quite a history of not liking each other much. Cueto gave Jason Larue, his former catcher, a...

Sometimes conditions and signage require chains on all wheels to proceed, but most of the time it does not. I've been elk hunting where all four wheels needed to be chained. But that's an extreme condition, not likely to be often encountered on highways and other roads by expediters very often...

Yeah, they work. I've tried a couple of them. I also have Google Spreadsheet that I can access with the Droid. I mostly use Documents2Go from Dataviz. The free version lets you view Word and Excel files, but the paid version lets you create and edit them, as well as Powerpoint and PDF files...

So now we're talking about motor vehicles on ice covered lakes, instead of motor vehicles on snow covered roads? Huh? What?

To help ensure the above happens, I have sent Brandon Phillips a roll of duct tape

I didn't miss it at all. Chaining up all 4 tires is unnecessary, as only chaining the drives is sufficient. But if you want to chain all your tires, more power to ya. "All the rear wheel traction in the world will do you NO good if you turn your steer wheels left and you go straight, into the...

That's what you get for trying to figure out what I really meant to say, rather than reading what I actually said. "It's not [relevant to the issue being discussed], but apparently when you kill someone by beheading them, it's far, far worse than just blowing up them into a million pieces."...

I had mine done a couple or three weeks ago. I stood there 15 feet from the eye chart, and the nurse asked, "Can you read line 6?" I replied confidently, "Yes." After a long pause she finally said, "Would you read it out loud?" I figure you might as well have a little fun in everything. :D
