No, but then I expect judges to act even more independant, not like partisan jerks (cough, Scalia, cough)

Aussie mates were there for a week. 2m of champagne fresh over the course of the week. The locals considered it "normal"

90+% of our DNA isn't good enough? Define the categories broad enough and everyone's the same INTP whoopee!

Peter- As the Clinton era showed, just because their are highly partisan people prosecuting you doesn't mean you didn't do something wrong.

Arresting legislators to get them to vote on redistricting is notable, yes.

I think Modified Mt. Cook (Kiwi Scheme) is just a number w/+-. The rock grade is sometimes added for clarity. Follows is a brief summary: Grade 1 - Easy scramble. Use of rope generally only for glacier travel. Grade 2 - Steeper trickier sections may need a rope. Grade 3 - Longer steeper sections generally. Use of technical equipment necessary. Ice climbs may require two tools. Grade 4 - Technical climbing. Knowledge of how to place ice and rock gear quickly and efficiently a must. Involves a long day. Grade 5 - Sustained technical climbing. May have vertical sections on ice. Grade 6 - Multiple crux sections. Vertical ice may not have adequate protection. Good mental attitude and solid technique necessary. May require a bivvy on route and be a long way from civilisation. A goodly number of Grade 6's are on the Balfour Face of Mt. Tasman. Here's the Alpinist notes w/pic "Surreal Insomnia" (V WI6+, 600m) is an NZ grade 5 - line 1 http://www.alpinist.com/climbing-notes/note/10071/

Hokkaido in January. Freshiez galore!

You live at the end of the rainbow?

To combat declining parishes, the Catholic church has created a live action version of the gospel - in the contemporary era! Aboard the raft is Mary Magdalene, in the water is Jesus, and budget cuts have turned it from water to wine to from water to keystone light (he added Vodka!)

Shit, I'm surprised you can last that long

Wait for the real world when they patent it.

Quibble from a lush who likes odd booze. It's a list of things OLCC normally stocks in it's warehouse. Often times restaurants special order booze and OLCC ends up with orphans (see orphans *.pdf) and liquor stores will end up with bottles not listed. Either that or they illegally import it - which is how I was able to get Virginia Gentleman bourbon in PDX. Zinc a NW PDX place that closed (a year ago?) regularly stocked Pernod. They also had big gulp sized Sidecars.

And somebody is sensitive to others feelings. A touching moment. Who'd have thought an evil super villain would be insensitive?

You can purchase things that aren't listed on the OLCC website in Oregon.

I wish I owned electronics this "problematic"

Skip the imposters and head straight for the Green Fairy layton

High School Trig: Oscar Had A Hit Of Acid

I think he and his son are among the few who actually bothered to go and climb it and not believe second hand reports.

Of course there's Pink floyd, and then there's Pink Floyd

Wow. That sounds like my jobs. Except when I prove it's impossible they give me a pink slip. Count your blessings.

Didn't stop pimping CEO W, did it?

soBE?

You called?

It was the contemplation of thousands of mouse clicks that pushed me over the edge.

What's the proper adulturant for beer? Strychnine?
