Harvard physicist Alex Wissner-Gross emits more CO2 per day.

...perhaps he should consider his own 'carbon footprint' and just eliminate himself from the planet. If all the whiners did the same it would be a much cooler - and quieter - peaceful planet.

Of course she looks like Bride of Chucky.

They both made of the same material.... plastic!

(and they have the same number of brain cells....)

I've been laughing for decades at the people who scream against Frankenfood. Anyone who's been raised near a farm knows that we've been dramatically modifying crops and animals over the last 25,000years.

Your great-great-great-grandfathers would crap their pants if they could see what comes out of today's farms. And without those changes, we'd probably have had a few dozen more World Wars and killed a few more billion people to survive.

Not staged??? This guy does a street act and has been on TV numerous times.....

An animal will knaw off its own leg to get out of a steel trap before the trapper comes back to finish him off.... sounds like the same thing going on here.

If he's insane, then he's too dangerous to himself or other to continue living. If he IS plotting, then he is WAY too dangerous to continue living.

Continue with the execution; we don't need something like that living with the human race....

Spread like any other retailer.... Sears, JCPenny, whatever.

I'm sick of the 'anti-Walmart' propaganda. They put a regional warehouse in here and the protesters started up immediately -- until the local news did some digging and found out that they paid BETTER than the other warehouses for the same jobs and had better benefits.

It's the UNIONS behind the propaganda that are the real danger to the US, not Wal-Mart....

Gee... that's only been a standard procedure for hundreds of years, kiddies. They didn't have euthanasia shots for animals until the last few decades....

(You city people make me shake my head.)

$700 a week as a paperboy??? Yeah and what was REALLY wrapped in those papers???

Scary. Scary. Scary.

Go find a copy of Frank Herbert (yes, the 'Dune' author) book "The White Plague" from 1982.

A bit dated since its about a scientist who decides to get back at the IRA for killing his family in a bombing, but in the forward he says he was scared at just how EASY it would be to kill off a major portion of the human race in a kitchen with a few tens of thousands of dollars worth of equipment that anyone could gather.

"Most impressive is that you could buy a magazine for fifteen cents!"

15cents was three loafs of bread back then. That would be somewhere around $5-$6 now.

...helps to keep things in perspective.

Direct violation of AMA Safety Rule #8:

2009 Official
Academy of Model Aeronautics
National Model Aircraft Safety Code
Effective January 1, 2006

1. A model aircraft shall be defined as a non-human-carrying device capable of sustained flight in the atmosphere. It shall not exceed limitations
established in this code and is intended to be used exclusively for recreational or competition activity.
2. The maximum takeoff weight of a model aircraft, including fuel, is 55 pounds, except for those flown under the AMA Experimental Aircraft Rules.
3. I will abide by this Safety Code and all rules established for the flying site I use. I will not willfully fly my model aircraft in a reckless and/or
dangerous manner.
4. I will not fly my model aircraft in sanctioned events, air shows, or model demonstrations until it has been proven airworthy.
5. I will not fly my model aircraft higher than approximately 400 feet above ground level, when within three (3) miles of an airport without notifying
the airport operator. I will yield the right-of-way and avoid flying in the proximity of full-scale aircraft, utilizing a spotter when appropriate.
6. I will not fly my model aircraft unless it is identified with my name and address, or AMA number, inside or affixed to the outside of the model
aircraft. This does not apply to model aircraft flown indoors.
7. I will not operate model aircraft with metal-blade propellers or with gaseous boosts (other than air), nor will I operate model aircraft with fuels
containing tetranitromethane or hydrazine.
8. I will not operate model aircraft carrying pyrotechnic devices which explode or burn, or any device, which propels a projectile of any kind.
Exceptions include Free Flight fuses or devices that burn producing smoke and are securely attached to the model aircraft during flight. Rocket
motors up to a G-series size may be used, provided they remain firmly attached to the model aircraft during flight. Model rockets may be flown in
accordance with the National Model Rocketry Safety Code; however, they may not be launched from model aircraft. Officially designated AMA Air
Show Teams (AST) are authorized to use devices and practices as defined within the Air Show Advisory Committee Document.
9. I will not operate my model aircraft while under the influence of alcohol or within eight (8) hours of having consumed alcohol.
10. I will not operate my model aircraft while using any drug which could adversely affect my ability to safely control my model aircraft.
11. Children under six (6) years old are only allowed on a flightline or in a flight area as a pilot or while under flight instruction.
12. When and where required by rule, helmets must be properly worn and fastened. They must be OSHA, DOT, ANSI, SNELL or NOCSAE
approved or comply with comparable standards.

Snow as far south as Houston and New Orleans, freezing temperatures down past Orlando. Here in southeastern Florida, we've had lows in the low 40s for weeks (cold that we usually only get for a week or so in January)

.....yeah, tell me how we HAVE to give billions in 'carbon offsets' to the UN to 'redistribute' to the third-world countries.

(Maybe they could just take the billions in Nigeria that nice emailing lawyer says I keep inheriting. There's a solution!)

Oh, Lord... I only live a dozen miles from there...

Florida used to be the land of beautiful hard-bodies, but in recent years the mass of Northeasterners moving down has turned the area into the Land of Potatoe Shaped Tubbies. The beaches that were lined with gorgeous twinkies are now lined with female Tony Sopranos (yes, the show used Port St. Lucie and tons of 'em moved down here.)

...ah well....

Martha: "Snoop, it that parsley you're shaking on the potatoes?"

Snoop: "Ohhhhhh, yeah......"

Exactly why I DON'T go out to sporting events: I'm sick of morons who are there to get hammered on a half-gallon of beer and think they are the center of attention....
