Utterly terrible idea. This is pure ignorance. My kids each have boxes of 64 crayons each, should they only get 36 other items? This proves the old adage that humans are suckers for round numbers.
This is so confusing. Are you aware that Return of the Living Dead was an absolutely huge film when it came out and a favorite mid-1980s rental amongst campy film buffs. I was in high school at the time and probably saw the film a dozen times. I understand that many people are not 40, but jiminy, this film is very well-known.
LNS generally refers to "Late Night Shots" a group of ultra-conservative white Washington, DC interns who go out drinking. Only an idiot would think that anyone outside DC knows what it means and I apologize for someone local being so rude.
You people are unfamiliar with the case. She already outed her important clients and had nothing more to say. The case, from a journalistic angle, was a disappointment.
Spore, I don't even know how to comment on your nationalistic and semi-racist rant other than to say I am outraged and repudiate your ugly comments.
For someone who people say was never going to commit suicide, she certainly talked and wrote a lot about suicide!!! Sounds to me from her own words that she was obsessing about suicide.
She detailed every client she had, she had no interesting clients, and she was up for serious hard time for probably the rest of her life.
Anyone's "opinion" or "belief" about whether or not she committed suicide is laughable until we have more facts in the case.
I've lived in DC my whole life and pretty much most of the conspiracy theories you hear about are false (JFK, UFOs) but the ones that are real, you never hear about. Let's say retired members of the military and intel agencies working together to influence foreign governments or elections. Does anyone really think that once-powerful white Rhodesians didn't spend some money to unseat the Zimbabwean government in the recent elections?
The Washingtonienne case happened and the Spitzer case happened with almost zero fallout, what reason can anyone give to make this story, with no major players involved, more special than Spitzer? Occam's Razor.
I worked with many people in the military and would say that the same attraction one would have to organized street gangs (authority where there was none at home, lack of internal drive) absolutely corresponds to the military lifestyle (strong center of authority, clear rules, obedience). This is not meant a criticism of the military. I found that people with creativity and internal drive did not fare as well because they bucked authority. A Junior gang member might really crave the ability to wear a Marine Corps tattoo.
Everything they dislike about CNN is what makes CNN better than any other news source. Let's start with more creative headlines. These people have no taste at all.
The Computer Dating Services were the punchlines of countless, literally countless, jokes on game shows and Laugh-In and Mad Magazine in the early 1970s. I remember watching something on TV about the Computer Dating Service where they talked about it starting in 1966.
In junior high school, which for me was around 1979, we had a computer dating service fundraiser that had really dumb questions like, what kind of movies do you like or what kind of music do you like. And many people literally had no match (for instance, girls who liked heavy metal and slasher movies were in short supply at age 12). But people who liked "rock" and "comedies" were not, nor were they specific enough to matter.
When I was in elementary school three of our teachers had survived the holocaust as children. Now that I think about it, they're probably 70-80 years old and kids today, and even many Neatorama readers who are adults had no or maybe just one holocaust survivor for a teacher. Let me tell you though, nothing woke you up like Mr. Schmetterling rolling up his sleeves to work on a project and seeing this faded old tattoo on his arm. Then that pause while some idiot girl who never gave history a moment's thought asked why he had a tattoo of numbers on his arm. Then we heard about the last time he saw his mother, father and his three sisters and how he was strong, so strong that the Nazis needed him to dig sewer ditches and then it was off with his shoes to see his two remaining toes on his right foot. Kids can't deal with that? Try growing up in an integrated neighborhood in the 1970s, holocaust survivors were everywhere.
My mistake, apparently the kid in the ATV accident was paralyzed and is in some kind of nursing home, but he otherwise survived. The other deaths are deaths. Note to self, call your mother before posting about childhood friends.
