Free kibbles

Now we have some details of the SEALs rescue of the captain from pirates. The shots were simultaneous from 75'. By all accounts, this was impressive. Now we know the USS Bainbridge had rammed the lifeboat to keep it from drifting to shore. Excellent.
There was no command to fire at that given moment

The articles make it sound like they all fired with no signal between them. That would be outstanding.

Exxon claims US oil demand has peaked. I find that hard to believe. We're going through a temporary lull because of the economy, but I seriously doubt our demand as peaked long-term. The economy will recover despite the best efforts of Barack Obama to keep it down.

Trent Reznor and Nine Inch Nails make money bypassing the music copyright.

How come only Washington D.C. is experiencing an uptick in housing prices? Pharaoh Obama's magic, of course.

Does the First Amendment forbid copyrights?

Mises scholar suggests Mothers Against Drunk Driving make some changes for the safety of all Americans. I strongly agree that the focus on drunk driving instead of dangerous driving has led to many more fatalities than we should tolerate. Whether a driver has been drinking or not is immaterial. All we should care about is if the driver is unsafe, and we should identify a coordination/judgment test that tests that.

What kind of freak would write the headline "Verdict blights Spector's legacy" after a man was convicted of murder? When did a man's musical legacy become more important than the life he took?
