“Please re-read what i wrote because at no time did i ever say that. I did however say that there is a drug war going on with the cartels going on. How and why on earth did you even make that jump from what i said. Again, please re-read what i wrote.”
“I hate guns and see no point in them, they just perpetuate the problem of violence more and more. But i have to say that considering the war on the cartels that is going down there, i don't think this is a bad idea. Except that off duty officers could blend into society a bit easier without them. Now they will have a target swung over their shoulder and stick out like a sore thumb.”
“I heard a report recently on NPR about how the same thing is happening to the smartphone market and how Samsung has leveled off in their smartphone sales. It's because the people that want one, have one now.”

“The expendables are awesome!! It's cheesy, pointless, random violence, blow stuff up for no reason while the bad guys can't shoot thousands of bullets and not hit a target to save their lives awesomeness!! If you walk in to those movies expecting a plot and acting then you walked into the wrong theater. The movies aren't for you.”
“Please! My favorite Christmas movie is Die Hard! I'm not expecting plots from these movies. But still - even by "Explosion Man" movie standards, The Expendables was sad. It was great seeing Statham (!!) and Jet Li, but overall - not a great explosion-man movie. JMO, of course.”
““If journalism is the mission, given the pressures to cut costs and make profits, maybe [a publicly traded company] is not the best place for The Post.”
Well, duh!!!! This is one of the biggest problems with a lot of American companies and industries. They are not designed to be publicly traded or run by big corporations that are.”
“359 million members is a skewed number since Google automatically signs you up for a Google+ account if you have a Gmail or other google account. Since i rarely use my gmail account it took me several months before i realized they had created one for me. I had to go through a lot of steps to get them to remove it.”
“Sams Chowder House in Half Moon Bay, CA is amazing! Not only is their lobster roll the best i've ever had, it was voted top 5 sandwiches in the United States. Whenever i am in the area i will make the drive and set aside time so that i can go there. Their clam chowder is also the best there is on the west coast.”
“In reading the comments in here you'd think there was a blood v crip war going on. Why are people so concerned about what phone i have in my pocket? I could care less about what phone you have, it has zero bearing on my life. My phone is awesome and i love it and when the new version comes out i'll buy another one. Why? Because I like it and that's all that matters. Android users on here call iOS people fanboys when they are acting the same way. Relax people! In the end they are just little handheld gadgets and they all have issues and strong points and none of them last forever. All companies have good and bad about them. Most of the good just being smoke and mirrors so you dont focus on the bad. If you think your company is better than the other then i've got a wonderful bridge for sale, great location and real cheap.”
“If you already have an iPad then don't hesitate getting an AppleTV, the user interface for it is hands down the best out there, especially for Netflix. The user interface is so much better that i bought one for each TV in the house even though some are already equipped with streaming apps and i sold my roku's.”
“The mistake they made wasn't in the number of tablets they made or even the price. It was the availability of purchasing as well as the horrible marketing/tutorials of the new OS. The surface was only available in their stores, which they do not have that many of, and people want to see and play with the item before spending that amount of money. This is why Samsung has ripped off Apples look and feel of their stores in places like Best Buy and malls to keep their sales of their tablets up. The surface should have been available at every store possible.”
“In my experience with the new season it didn't get really funny until the second half of the episodes when everything started to tie together and the timeline for all of the episodes started to make sense. The first few episodes i laughed here and there but laughed hysterically once i started getting the jokes further into the season. The writing for this season was wicked smart, it just took a minute to get it all. I do hope though that they don't use this timeline style for the 5th season.”
“Check out their other new show Orange is the New Black. I enjoyed the first season a lot. It's done by the same person who did the show Weeds on Showtime. Which all of the seasons of the show Weeds are available on Netflix as well.”
“I've rather enjoyed their roller-coaster ride. I bought during their IPO and got out before they plummeted and were around 300, then bought a ton more when they bottomed out around 50. Now their stock is fluctuating between 245 and 270 and i don't see them plummeting the way they did before ever again.”
“They have released a lot of Disney content but the bulk of it wont be released on Netflix for a few more years. It will be awesome when it does though.”
“I do the exact same thing, instant plus 2 DVD's and it's only 20 bucks a month. With that alone i have more to watch than i can get through. I cut the cable cord a long time ago and haven't missed it one bit.”
“I'm not calling him a hero by any means but all he did was exposed the fact that we are being spied on by our own govt much in the same way that Russia has done to their own citizens. Our govt is really no different than Russia's if you think about it.”
“Same here as i don't smoke it at all but i want to see the end of its prohibition and an end of the large amounts of pointless prison sentences surrounding it. There will always be a criminal element to it as there is with everything, black markets will always exist. But the vast majority of it will go away as it can be legally farmed, transported and sold by law abiding citizens.”
“Android isn't even allowed on the bulk of high tech companies networks due to vulnerability issues. My company for one will only allow Apple and Blackberry phones as they are by far the most secure. This is why Google has been forced to finally put restrictions o their market place (google play store) as they are loosing out on a ton of market share in the business community.”
“Apple has already brought back the manufacturing line for the Mac computers, none of their competitors have. Also Apple was the LAST computer company to leave the US less than ten years ago, when ALL of their competitors left in the 80's and 90's. Also, Samsung is a Korean company.”
