    Well, to be fair, it is off topic. It hasn't a damned thing to do with the topic.

    Not that it wasn't a good comment and I am the last person who would complain about topics not being followed. If I'm on topic, it's probably accidental.

    You're probably right. I was less than sober, pretty much for that whole decade. And most of the previous one...

    1836.

    Not that it matters, but we've invaded Canada a few times. Most recently, we had military action in 1990 in Canada. Yup... We sent armed forces, offensively, to Canada in 1990. I believe Canada apologized. It was over a golf course, First Nations people, and the death of a police officer.

    They, though I guess they were not officially Canada at the time, set fire to our White House. This was largely ineffective and entirely unnecessary. In their defense, we had burnt their capital down prior to that. That would have been in Toronto. We torched it, and that really wasn't necessary either. We torched quite a bit of Toronto, as I recall.

    I saw some video of people carrying firearms. They weren't waving them about in a threatening manner, in any of the video that I saw. I carry a firearm fairly frequently. I'm not even remotely a threat.

    If you're curious, I'm very politically left and not white. I'd hate to have you thinking I am a Nazi, or something.

    At any rate, do you have some specific footage you'd like me to watch?

    They go under medical expenses. It's therapy.

  19. Carrying a firearm !== threat, I'm not even sure you can legitimately call it brandishing.

  20. Re: Came here to say that... on Bitcoin Foundation Boss Urges Cautious Investment (bbc.com) · · Score: 1

    It's amazing to see how rapidly the price has risen. When BTC started, I mined 24 of them and promptly forgot about them. When the price hit $600, there was a story on this site and I donated them to EFF instead of realizing the asset and dealing with the tax issues. I don't regret donating them, but I do see that it would have been more valuable to have waited and donated the later. EFF doesn't really get the coins, as I understand it. They get the dollar value of the coins from a third party processor.

    You know, now that I think about it, that's one of the stupidest sayings. All you've done is move fecal matter and gotten some of it stuck to the wall. Maybe not throwing shit is a better idea?
