There was an even better solution to Hannah Montana or one of those other Disney types a year or so back: buyer's name goes on the ticket, and only that person can get in.
The biggest problem is between bands demanding a certain amount of money per show to play, and the touring management companies who feed into it, raising ticket prices in the process. This mostly applies to older bands, but it's easy to see where it leads.
I'd like to put a ban on all the chucklefucks who immediately stand up in the aisle and start getting their bags out of the overhead bins as soon as the plane hits the gate. Look, you dipshits, you're not going anywhere for the next 5-10 minutes, why are you blocking the aisles?
Creationism isn't science, and has no place in a science classroom. That has nothing to do with being "open minded." Creationism is a political creation.
Ever since those fucking banner ads starting using Java exploits to do redirects and run fake malware scans, I've kept Java off except for the incredibly rare occasion.
That's because they're both all about face time: showing loyalty to the company/boss by being there lots of hours. It's not about actually accomplishing anything.
I did some work at a company that a friend worked at here in Ontario, and there was always an underlying assumption from the boss about face time: those who showed up early and worked a bit late were seen as more trustworthy and loyal. Whether they got more done was never looked at.
The only thing I'd be interested in tracking (and I partly do) is exercise & health-related. These can help to show trends and improvement in fitness, and can help manage your life to live better/get stronger, etc.
How many emails I sent 10 years ago: Who the fuck cares? The time's gone, it doesn't affect me today or in the future. I've got a different job and spend my time in a much different manner.
I used to love the stuff, 2 a day on most work days. I stopped cold turkey at the start of February, giving in to a quarter cup after 3 weeks after a big breakfast when up north. Had half Starbucks "short" this morning because I was just too damn tired.
I was partly inspired by this blog article, partly by health concerns that had developed over the previous few months including a feeling of over-sensitivity to the caffeine, and partly just to see if I could do it.
After the first week of withdrawal symptoms, mostly slight headaches in the afternoon, I was pretty much operating as normal. I think it's good to force one's self out of a habit for a while.

Both my sister and 2 different exes used to drive like that, one hand at the bottom. Drove me crazy (ha!).
And when they was no meat we ate fowl. And when they was no fowl we ate crawdad. And when they was no crawdad to be found, we ate Sand.

Learning is still fun. The trick is to ignore internet comments.
WTF is with you people posting Google search links instead of the damn actual page URLs?
Ah, Taco Bell! Coming right up, sir!
It seems that Microsoft has become a good guy while Apple is rapidly becoming a goat. ... Or have I spoken too soon?
Let me know when thousands of machines running OS X are being used as C&C servers for botnets. Talk about false equivalency.

A Chuck Norris joke, in 2012? Yeesh. They were never that funny in the first place.
Romana 2 was the best.

It's a small galaxy, really.
What about intense pain?...Does Nokia have Orwellian aspirations for this patent?
Well, they've already gone to Windows Phone 7...
Personally, I'm not looking forward to the day I get sent off to the Goulash Archipelago.
0.0.0.0 is the proper solution, even on an actual computer.

Great. Now Google's going to get all up in my face when I fly, not just the TSA.
You could certainly keep this off-line, like in a pen & paper journal or non-networked computer, it'd just takes more work and effort.

So what have you done with those "saved" minutes? You can use time that has already passed.
I like your moxie, kid! You'll go far in this biz!
