Of course you should post with passion. Who wants to read boring, uninspired comments all the time? Besides, if we all did what the article says, the world would be missing out on the brilliance of our comments.
Well Mr Awesome the teenagers sit that way anyway and dirty the lower seat but now the rest of the public can sit on the back without getting themselves dirty. I would add a small backrest to the upper bench though.
Other than accidental death, suicide or murder genetics play the key role in longevity. How do you avoid cancer or heart disease or kidney disease or diabetes by being conscientious? Don't we know there is a genetic link to all of these diseases? We can all give examples of people that, because of their lifestyles should have died earlier or lived longer. Ask several centenarians how they got there and you'll get several very different answers. If you've got good genetics you've got a much better chance at longevity than if you don't regardless of how conscientious you are.
While I partially agree with MadMolecule, the money spent does help the local economy, money in the bank is not just sitting in the vault collecting dust. Banks give loans for a lot of things that also help the economy. At least in theory. That's what interest is all about. That said this is a pretty ridiculous thing to do.
Parole before the completion of a prison sentence is ludicrous on its face. Why have any specific sentence if it's going to change in the future and just exactly what is good behavior in prison anyway? In this case they got lucky because nobody was seriously physically hurt or died. Do the crime, get caught and convicted, do the time you were given, end of story.
A peak of happiness at age 85..."is greatly increased by having good health, a stable income and good relationships with family and friends, according to scientists". What? Being sickly, broke and estranged from family and friends would make someone less happy? Put this in the, No Kidding, file. Blanket statements rarely cover everything.
Let's face it, you can never buy anything electronic that won't become obsolete but buying first usually means you'll have to deal with the glitches. However if you wait too long you're on to the next version and a whole new set of problems. Electronic technology isn't standing still so you just have to get something that you understand will be obsolete in a couple of years (or sooner) and enjoy it while you can. The only thing I find fault with in the industry is proprietary marketing. To get this item you must belong to this service type of thing. Otherwise it's just progress.
@ Miss Cellania: I could easily retire on $15,000 a year. That blows my mind. Just my health insurance and living expenses (sans mortgage) costs me more than that.
fretter. if you think at all about your future you are worried about retirement. Because I have a physical, labor intensive job I was planning on retirement at 60 until the economic downturn. Between cuts in salary, increases in expenditure and my retirement account going south, if I'm lucky my forecast is now 67.
Most of us will never have $1 million all at once in our lives so it would certainly make us comfortable. Rich? No. Heck in a lot of areas in California $1 million buys a tract home. Not that I'd turn it down if someone is offering.

Great game. Lots of fun for movie buffs.
