@stirfry- Too funny! Man, this would be the WORST hangover food ever! As if you don't feel bad enough, shoving a cheesy, greasy whopper down your gullet will absolutely finish you off.

I'll stick with ramen and avoid this gastronomic nightmare entirely.

At 30, I'm getting a little old for…

Well, Dolphingirl is correct here. It's not masochistic because the definition of masochism is being able to derive pleasure from causing pain to others. As horrifying and evil as this crime was, I don't believe their intent was to cause pain to the victims. They simply didn't care or even…

@KyokoSmile- You're the second woman on JT to tell your personal story of losing your child. I'm sorry for your loss and hope that you can someday be with your child again. Stories like yours tug on my heartstrings and I can only hope that Japan will change these damaging…

A trophy wife? What do you know about Elin Woods, do you know her at all?
According to media reports, she was a big golf fan BEFORE she met Tiger, she was a supermodel and she tried to build a stable, private family life for him.

By my standards, she…

Ah, but it IS beginning to have an effect.
A small effect, but an effect nonetheless.

The drug gangs are keeping note of the marijuana trend, and adjusting operations accordingly. Couple that with the increased policing of the border and other factors and you get this increase in violence.

I…

@biglittleman- I haven't been to a sporting event since I was a kid.

Besides, it's a little different (a beer at a ballgame) from going to my local BK and ordering a whiskey with my whopper.
Fast food eateries are nauseating in general, I don't think whiskey goggles will improve…

@yokomoc- Evidence of Higgs-boson IS revolutionary!

I like the way you think, though. :)

Correction: pot WAS a cash cow. Now, you can get it almost legally by going to a dispensary in some states. My sister USED to buy pot from a dealer, she now gets it from a friend with glaucoma.
She's not the only one who does this, either.

This has…

This violence won't end any time soon, unfortunately. The mexican drug lords are ruthless when it comes to business. These people make the bootleggers of the 20's look like boy scouts by comparison. Unfortunately, marijuana isn't the only drug they deal, anything that makes a profit will do. Currently, with…
