ICanSleepWhenI'mDead

Well, unless you were receiving tweets telepathically, it seems like there was a fairly simple solution for avoiding the spoilers. Hey, you asked. Like twice.

Shotgun AND a Glock . . . wonder where he kept his back-up piece?

Sounds to me like Hogan's already got the back-up CB here spot locked up.

I don't know if anything will change for the upcoming season, but I've had Game Rewind for the last 2 years. For both years, I could start streaming the Bills game (or any other NFL team's game) on demand shortly after the Sunday night NFL game ended. The stream was unavailable until then, and was also unavailable during the live broadcast of each Monday night NFL game. So if you live on the East Coast, and work some type of morning hours on Mondays, the option of starting to watch the Bills game roughly around midnight Sunday night isn't very practical. On the other hand, if you live on the West Coast, or plan to delay sleep until you are dead, there is a viable window to watch that day's Bills game on demand shortly after the Sunday night NFL game broadcast ends, even if you have to work on Monday mornings. The replay video is HD quality - - but the quality of what you personally get to see depends on the strength of your particular internet connection (just like for any other streaming video). As I mentioned, I haven't seen anything yet about the upcoming season, so it's always possible the availability of the stream might change this year. Hope that helps.

Divert funds currently earmarked for foreign aid to provide free cell phones to all of our Mexican "friends." Make sure we have a network of cell towers on the US side of the border, and along the Gulf coastline, that are robust enough to send and receive signals quite a few miles into Mexican territory and the Gulf. Re-task some N$A resources that have been used to track US citizens to track all of our Mexican "friends" who move within range of the robust cell tower network. Make the cell phone gift to Canada as well, as a North American initiative, to deflect suspicion. Promoting the North American cyber economy, or whatever. You know the demographics of the likely illegal immigrants will make many of them Facebook users, so persuade Mark Zuckerberg to pony up part of the upfront costs. Maybe throw in a few bucks from the guy who gets "Angry Birds" royalties. That's gotta cost the American taxpayers, net, less than an actual wall, and unlike a wall, lets you track the incoming horde in real time. Let each state figure out how to deal with the illegal immigrants once they've been located IF they try to illegally enter the US. Make sure that adverse consequences suffered by those who are "located" are widely publicized in Mexico. Heck, you could even use the very same cell phones for that purpose, as long as such publicity was included (i.e., hidden) in a flow of other information. Keep our "friends" in the dark about how they were located by creating a plausible cover story. If we could fool the German war machine in WWII about our breaking of Enigma coded messages, we certainly ought to be able to fool unorganized immigrants. Let a few cell phone packin' friends get in, just to further hide what's really happening (just like some Enigma-based intelligence was not used in order to protect the secrecy of the successful Enigma code breaking). We put a man on the moon in a decade. We can get this done. Next problem?

Nicely done.

Skynet would become frustrated at its inability to stamp out the human race, go insane when it couldn't figure out which new body John Connor was in, and the machines would eventually turn on each other. Arnold Schwarzenegger would be out of work, the industrial revolution would reverse, and humans would revert to an agrarian society.

My brother Darryl still hasn't renewed his subscription to Ladies Home Journal. So if anybody wants to see a pretty well-informed discussion of the legal issues involved in deciding whether a disparaging term can be federally registered as a trademark (as opposed to simply used as a trademark without a federal registration), he suggests you take a gander at this: http://www.ipwatchdog.com/2015/07/05/free-speech-or-scandal-the-slants-case-disparaging-trademarks/id=59413/ P.S. No goose was harmed in the posting of this message, and as far as I know, no subset of the waterfowl population was offended by my use of the term "gander."

Let's assume that I have a sibling that had to get a security clearance. I'm not saying it was Darryl. Two serious questions: 1. Were notices required to be sent to the "family or friends" whose information was stored in the background investigation forms that got hacked? My guess is "no," but I haven't tried to look it up yet. 2. What sort of info would generally be stored about siblings in the background investigation forms that got hacked (in whatever level of detail, if any, that you are allowed to disclose)? If it matters - - I realize it might not - - I was never contacted by any investigator inquiring about my sibling, either before or after my sibling obtained a security clearance. Straightforward answers to each question would be appreciated, even if that's just stating "I can't talk about it." Thanks.

The Washington Redskins team (technically, "Pro-Football, Inc.") has filed an amicus brief in the the trademark appeal by "The Slants." That appeal to the Federal Circuit sitting en banc is scheduled to be orally argued on October 2, 2015. Here's the NFL team's amicus brief: https://s3.amazonaws.com/s3.documentcloud.org/documents/2108054/profootball-fedcircuit-20150618.pdf I still think that the older, archived thread about the Redskins trademark should be re-opened and merged with this one. Anybody listening?

He and Billie Joe McAllister only made honorable mention.

Sasheem: Be mindful of this, my son. Many years ago, one of our Stojan-head ancestors foolishly discussed Arabic numerals with an infidel. That is why the Americans can now rain fire upon us from the sky. We must closely guard such knowledge in the future, by avoiding the appearance of wisdom when we post messages for each other at Modern Goat-Herder Monthly. Little Sasheemi: You are wise, Father. But how can I best avoid the appearance of wisdom? Sasheem: Read what my cousin ******** posts at Two Bills Drive. No American suspects him of having a useful thought.

p// end// but I did not shoot the deputy.

After you get plum s**t-faced, take the leftover plums, smear them on your face, find out where your favorite supermodel or starlet is working, and give her this: Then post pics of her back in this thread. It's a win/win.

Sure Doc, just like people who talk on a hands-free cell phone connection can drive just as safely as those whose brains are fully engaged with the act of driving: http://www.nsc.org/learn/NSC-Initiatives/Pages/distracted-driving-how-cell-phone-distracted-driving-affects-the-brain.aspx You have to either convince me that the national safety council position on increased driving risks when using a hands-free cell phone connection is wrong, or explain to me how practicing anesthesiology with an unconscious patient requires less concentration than driving. Or does your "doctor" brain work differently than everybody else's?

Seems to me like the judge did not correctly apply Virginia's one party consent rule. That rule would allow the patient to secretly record any conversation that the patient participated in. So if the patient had a post-op consultation with his doctor in which both parties were speaking, the patient could clearly secretly record that. And I suppose even if the patient said nothing, the patient could also secretly record any post-op instructions that the doctor spoke to the patient, because the words spoken were directed to the conscious patient, so the patient was still, in some sense, a "party" to what was said. But even if it was recorded on a different part of the same tape, if the insulting comments were made during a conversation between the medical staff personnel while the patient was unconscious, I don't see how the patient can claim to be a participant in the conversation where the insults were made. The intentional falsification of the medical records would still be a problem for the medical staff involved, but it seems to me like the jury should not have heard the secretly recorded insults. Can't say that I'll be shedding any tears for the anesthesiologist, though. Karma's a b**ch.

"Nefarious anesthesiologists" would be a pretty good band name. Outlaw music that gives you an escape from life's pain and troubles.
