I cannot believe what a life-wrecking big deal they make about such an insignificant quantity of a drug which is scarcely more harmful than smoking tobacco or drinking, one or both of which such a high percentage of "respectable" salarymen participate in almost every day of the week, usually to…

Well done the Lions for keeping their heads so well. Seeing the Giants lose is quite heartwarming, really.

Unfortunately they will be regarded by some as martyrs. Despite their guilt and the magnitude of their crimes, I oppose this and I'm disappointed that they didn't get life in jail in uncomfortable obscurity, where scum like this belong.

The only thing I can say is that I know that…

Sarge, Obama won least of all because unlike you he can see the obvious - i.e. that the last 8 years have been disastrous for America's economy and its standing in the world, and because electing McCain would be like asking for another 4 years of the same. The republicans…

Sarge, your comments demonstrate that you have zero understading on the financial crisis into which Bush has dragged America over the past 8 years.

I'm surprised that she didn't quit earlier. After Sydney, her career took a rapid downward turn and competitively, she's virtually done nothing since. She was obviously a talented athlete, but she's been living on goodwill for a long time and eventually it has to run out.

Had he not been crossing a road with no crosswalk he would not have been hit. It is pretty simple.

No - it really ISN'T that simple. The fact that Yoshida was so drunk that he didn't judge it a good idea to stop after running someone over and then…
