Honestly, Opera's the only one I've had respond relatively reasonably to several hundred tabs open, so far. Firefox goes into ramsplosion mode, IE usually crashes before it even reaches that point, and I just don't like Chrome's aesthetics, so... yeah.

"Or something." Getting the effect with vista, here.

... not that it's really a problem. Just another way to close the window, one on the other side of the screen and triggered in a way far less likely to accidentally go off.

Damnit, games. Why must you make me laugh, so?

Started up a new game of Tactics Ogre, the PSP version. Managed to do something I'd never done before. In the one turn of combat you get in the very initial bit, before the game takes over, it turns you can...

... you can peg Warren in the back of the head with a rock. Beautiful. Irreverent. Completely unacknowledged by the game. But I can just imagine the poor old guy. Going down the street, buddies around him, suddenly bam cobblestone to his precious old man cranium. Stoning the elderly for fun and... well, no profit. Just fun.

Taylor Swift Adolf Hitler Wilde

FTFY.

Little is known of the child of Adolf Hitler and Oscar Wilde, but truly she was a paragon of wisdom, if unfortunately named.

Rickenbacker and stratocaster are both rather famous names in guitar, dutchling. To the point that, yeah, they're kinda' common knowledge, stratocasters especially.

The actual question is "Could we get a gun license system through" and... right now, and for a while now, there's been significant efforts to prevent pretty much anything like that, here in the states. There's apparently a lot of people willing to make tremendous stinks about how they couldn't live with a gun license system.

E: Also, yeah, caring about the finer points of Shia theology would probably make striking a deal with Iran a helluva' lot easier/more likely.

Edit: Question. Apparently you need, as I think is logical to take classes to own a tazer. Do you need to do the same for light handguns?

In the states? Well, it depends on the state. But Florida? No. No gun license, no requirements for training, no nothing (Beyond a background check. Sometimes.) to purchase and own. Not even much of an age restriction, iirc (16+ to own, 18+ to purchase? Something like that. It might be even younger for ownership.). You have to attend and pass a course to get a concealed carry permit around here, but the course in question is (or can be, anyway -- it may vary by area) a goddamn farce that might as well not exist -- the bigger barrier there is processing fees and whatnot.
