I think of scams as cheating someone. The growers, distributors, and consumers are consenting adults happily do business with each other. The only scam I see is big, intrusive government types propping up a failed policy.
I'm just throwing this out there, but what about sending a monolith of plexiglass with Glenn Beck embedded in it? I would even pay extra for some Hubble shots of that.
Waters is golf playing business man now. In a previous tour through Dallas, he requested a golfing partner from the company running the venue for some R&R before the tour. In this latest tour, again in Dallas, he talked on stage about how he was no longer the withdrawn distant young man he used to be.
Many of the fans on the other hand have not aged so well.
Doughy: Hey Orel, what did you put for number 3 on the science test?
Orel: Jesus!
Doughy: [slaps forehead] Of course!
That could be Texas after the state board of education with the "leadership" of creationist Don McLeroy molded public education in the image of his chosen god and political party.

Prison?
I've met plenty (certainly not all) of homeless who are heartless sociopaths. Some of them are heartless psychopaths. Don't let your compassion cloud your view, there are some scary people on the streets.
Be suspicious of those you don't know well, no matter how they dress or where they work, and avoid being bitter when they do bad things to you.
I would guess most of the profit comes from people on the losing side of a high-frequency trade. Buy and hold investors should be largely immune from short term churn.
". ..subverting this process by using onsite judges"
I don't have a problem with onsite judges. It requires enough effort to be used selectively for holiday weekends or the big game.
What scares me is this could be stretched with technology to the tele-presence of a judge. Imagine a judge working the equivalent of a phone center with pressure to process as many "calls" as possible. You end up with the same problem as the robo-signing of foreclosure documents.
I agree with everything you say, but I don't know what your point is. Her association with her husband and president is all the right needs to make knee jerk attacks on anything she supports, including healthy diets and exercise.
As you say, she is not in a position to implement policy so all the claims that this is nanny state intrusion is pure deranged fantasy.
Just look at Michelle Obama's support of healthy diets and exercise to combat the obesity epidemic. Those republican idols Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin jump on the other side: the gubbermint is taking away our desserts! Ebil ebil gubbermint!
Ah, so not really an altercation, just a grumpy old man being a rude dick and yelling at people like you are doing in this forum. You seem to have anger control problems as well as physical disabilities.
When I get to your age I hope I have more wisdom and mental control to deal with these matters. The actions you describe are embarrassing and make you look like a kook.

Please explain to me why I should be in favor of the government funding particle physics research.
Why don't you step into the box with the cat for a quick demonstration.
"Medical marijuana" is just a scam.

The Ewocs were rubbish, but JarJar was unforgivable.
They would make great targets for a Doom 3 mod.
I would not mind seeing Jabba go Hentai on Leia. Come on George, do it for the fans!
Build the runways on giant wheeled platforms on rails that can be reoriented to the magnetic field so that you never need alter the runways numbers.

Throw in some Intel NetBurst technology and you can accelerate your computing experience to ludicrous speed.
That's what I told the TSA guy. Then they tasered me.

Ahem. Congress prefers the terms page and freedom powder.
One of my favorite scenes from Moral Orel:

being with someone you are not attracted to is called desperate.
Isn't there a /. merit badge for that?
Now give me money (that's what I want)
Pocket protectors are not free.

After the holidays I could stand to lose a few pounds. This Maunder diet sounds like the ticket.
"dongle-less jailbreaking by overflowing the bootup NOR flash"
Awesome. I expect to hear this line in a sci-fi movie someday.
Saturday Night Fever was awful...
The song Staying Alive can be used to time CPR.
That partially makes up for Travolta's hair.

That made me imagine a chaps and spurs wearing Assange strolling into a saloon, causing the piano music to suddenly stop...
