On the other hand, in SF you can do pretty much any kind of science you want.

You know, to the best of my recollection, the only places I've ever been able to buy beer out of a vending machine were Japan, Germany, and Keesler AFB in Biloxi, MS.

SorosB, please. Comments about ANY article at any nominally-national website immediately become a cesspool of virulent racism and psychopathy.

This is because a non-trivial minority of our compatriots are virulent racists and/or psychopaths. The good news is that, while non-trivial, they are a minority.

I was certainly pleased to see that on the map, Cali was almost as deep blue as NY.

Cheers from the Golden State to the Empire State.

12 people who couldn't get out of jury duty.

I'm called for jury duty next week! Will I get out of it?<br /><br /><br />I'm struck by people who boast about their clever schemes to avoid jury duty. Usually it involves lying. That's ironic because the biggest part of jury duty is discerning who is telling the truth. And those same people complain the most about how stupid juries are.

Just wait 'til the Legislature makes it legal for anyone with a CCW to strap on their piece while teaching.

That's why it is the freeest state in the union, up four spots from 2009!

No, seriously, that is how they rated it.

"True freedom is being so drunk you manage to raze the top off your mullet with a roman candle you lit on the end of your cigarette."

Throw in some rape and racism, and you're golden.

If the criteria included control of your body parts, any of the vaginal probe states could have won. With extra points for death penalty where the government is given the power to kill you on the say-so of twelve people who landed on jury duty that week.

Let's just say that not all skinheads are racist.

Let me re-phrase. Not all skinheads are skinheads due to racism.

Better.

Only since they changed the name from New Amsterdam...

New York beat out CALIFORNIA?!? The place that is the go-to target for every right-wing commentator who can burp up a couple hundred words?

I say it's that East Coast Bias working again.

You might be surprised at how quickly ignorant people adopt big words when they allow them to say racist things.

Is THAT why all their yards are full of clunkers?
