gabrielgadfly There's been accusations of election fraud in the past three presidential elections. There's been lawsuits, or threats of them, but in the big picture, the outcomes haven't changed -- the guy who won the election remained president, no matter what legal...

Can anyone here tell me what Obama's definition of success is in Afghanistan? For years the incompetent press dogged Prs. Bush with questions about the war in Iraq and Afghanistan. Some of the questions were legitimate, and...

gabrielgadfly As far as I know, Obama still has a timetable for troop withdrawal -- August 31, 2010. I don't think anyone expects troop withdrawals to be instantaneous, but Obama declaring a date for it is at least more than Bush had ever done. Obama's plan would leave...

gabrielgadfly Then you're in the minority, clutterbug. Most Americans are more concerned with the latest happenings with that obnoxious Jon and Kate couple than they are about the wars their country is involved in.

According to itunes, I have about 48 straight hours worth of music on my computer, meaning it would take two full days to completely play through my music library. I know that's small compared to some people, but I'm fairly picky...

gabrielgadfly It seems like taking precautions for even remote dangers would be incredibly limiting, but I suppose it depends on what sort of precautions we're talking about. When does worry start affecting your common sense? I know a woman that keeps a massive container of...

gabrielgadfly Your comment makes me think of another thing that rarely hits the news, or rather, doesn't hit the news with the fairness it should -- child kidnappings. Unless the child is a white female, it rarely gets any news coverage, despite the fact that minorities...

gabrielgadfly I know that feeling. I usually try to go looking for something I haven't listened to in years -- nostalgia is a good thing.

gabrielgadfly Yep. Firefox is a freely downloadable browser. It's an alternative to Internet Explorer, and in my opinion, a superior one. You can get it at www.getfirefox.com

There are the everyday people, and then there are the badasses. You've seen them, sometimes in fiction, sometimes in reality -- the people that rock the world around them. But what does it take to be a badass? Can anyone become...
