Scott Klappenbach: How about "The Wild Bunch"? Too modern? · 25 minutes ago

The best Western ever made, though I might be a bit prejudiced.  It's not available on Netflix streaming but is available through Amazon Prime (and on Amazon it is the original director's cut)

James, when discussing the Office of Personnel Management did you mean its acronym as Other Peoples Money or OPiuM?

Regardless of who anyone supports on this primary day take heart in the fact that you won't have Dennis Kucinich to kick around anymore.

We can't turn lead into gold but we can turn sand into glass.

Question for our constitutional scholars: Does telling the TSA to go pound sand qualify as a Breach of the Peace as defined in Article 1, Section 6 or is this an unconstitutional restraint of a member of Congress

I went and upgraded on my laptop and everything worked as it should.  I also noticed that Firefox is now v9.0.1 instead of v9.0

Took the plunge and tried it again on the main desktop and everything is OK now.   Bad initial install or was it fixed in the minor version change by Mozilla - we will never know.

James Lileks: .......(To put it in science-fiction terms for all the geeks in Ricochetia, a Seldon crisis, not a Leibowitzian replay.)  · Oct 3 at 4:02pm

James, you may be heartened to hear (or maybe just shake your head and say "Oh no!) that : Sony Pictures has hired Dante Harper to adapt Foundation, the groundbreaking Isaac Asimov science fiction trilogy which Roland Emmerich is developing to direct.

I wake up every morning and turn on the radio in anticipation of hearing who lobbed a nuke at who - or what mighty personage was assassinated.  I read Mark Steyn to cheer me up.

May I suggest impoundment with them in the trunk.  I'm sure you could get a lot of support for this policy from the rank & file police.

It was a pleasure hearing Rob let one go against the criminal/immoral class.  Every once in a while our favorite RINO gets a bug up there (or maybe it's that nasty creature from Star Trek 2:The Wrath of Khan).  The last time I remember it happening was back near the beginning of the so-called Arab Spring and Rob was cheer leading for chaos (more rubble, less trouble!).  I suggest all efforts be made to discover Mr. Long's other buttons so that Mr. Lileks can push them.

Diane Ellis, Ed.:

As more nauseating details emerge from the scandal surrounding Solyndra's demise, Republicans need to persistently make the case that this malfeasance isn't isolated to one company, but is part and parcel of President Obama's stimulus legacy.  Solyndra's sloppy spending spree is really just a small manifestation of Obama's sloppy spending spree.

So, does this make his latest efforts sloppy seconds?

Claire Berlinski, Ed.: I wouldn't be quite so hard on a kid who is walking off a plane after two years in prison, seeing his family for the first time, and confronting a massive wall of cameras. It is completely possible that he misspoke.  · Sep 22 at 4:25am

Hard?  That's not even close to hard.  These three deserve a CoC violating rant that would shame Richard Pryor.  Until somebody asks him to explain his comment I'll just assume that he's a mush.

Is it unlawful to bring in your own plastic bags?  Costco sells a box of 1,000 bags for about $15.
