I could really use the money. Unfortunately, PF rules forbid commercial activity. There's a PS to my story. The headlight was not fixed. What happened was that while I was fiddling with the lights to test the rear lights, I accidentally turned on the high beams. They were working, but not the low beams. So I had to shell out the $35 and have the dealer fix it. I think it's a crime that you can't change a lightbulb in a car yourself.

I agree, maybe I will just lean out of the driver's sdie window and use my flashlight.

This is actually a strange fact of auto circuitry. Two remote lamps are often dependent on each other and when one blows the other won't light. I do not understand the why of such a circuit but it has proven to be the case on most cars I've owned.

Edit: just saw this wasn't your problem.

It really ticks me off when news people try to give a very detailed picture of how something tragic happened. Should it be of general public knowledge how a girl was raped or what gun-shooter did at 9 AM, then what at 9:02 AM .. and all the killer's biography.

I wholeheartedly agree. I think this should be it's own thread, it could lead to a good discussion.

That's unfortunately what people want to see. When something as controversial as this (the shooting in Connecticut) occurs, news stations can get away with broadcasting complete BS, so long as it is related to the topic that everyone is interested in.

So what are all of the fine, respectable, educational tv channels like National Geographic, The History Channel, A&E, etc... going to do with all of the 2012 Doomsday Shows after the 21st? It currently makes up a significant portion of their lineup.

Bigfoot's always an option. Maybe he thwarted the plot to end the world?

Random Thoughts won't let me attach files tonight.

Funny, it's not letting me study for a physics test that I have in 10 hours. The admins will have to check this out.

It's not letting me sleep.

People are capable of incredibly evil acts, be it via a gun, bomb or other weapons of mass destruction. There is no cure for the human capacity to inflict senseless violence. Is curbing access to tools of violence the cure? I doubt that. Issuing guns to school administrators makes sense to me. Would this result in some deranged school principal going berserk and assassinating children? - probably. Laws only work on sane people.

Forum is OK, your clock is off. Test is not in 10 hours, but in 9:37. Check if you can use NTP to synchronize your clock with the rest of us.

I'm thinking that if we invent a "suicide button", the population on earth will be downsized to about Borek's post count.
