nothing i said was factually incorrect. the truth hurts i guess. it's pretty funny that you revisionist history mormon apologists will claim that his 1826 trial records are fake, but think gold tablets sent by angels and never seen by anyon

the fact that a multinational organization with revenues in the billions can do SEO is not at all impressive to me. furthermore, you really need to question your belief system and analytical processes if you follow a church founded by a guy

I can't wait for Obie's next book, "The Jails Way" seriously though, if you associate and start businesses with people who send fake invoices for deceptive services like this, you are probably a sleazeball. even if you do have glamour shots

wow, lots of homophobe-apologists masquerading as free speech crusaders here tonight. it doesn't take a genius to realize that: a) having a lightning-rod homophobe/bigot on the team will turn into a PR nightmare and result in a media circus

this article's entire argument seems to be based around the idea that people only use twitter to broadcast mundane personal updates. that would get old very fast. 5 seconds of actual "journalism" would have evaporated this premise pretty q

"I'm no prude" I'd argue that you are, and you have some extremely revealing hang-ups about sex and sexuality, as evidenced by your reaction to a freaking cartoon avatar ("make me, personally, uncomfortable about working there, or talking

i think this fellow is right on the money. our economy borrows against future real growth to finance itself, and that will never work in the long term - that real growth is physically constrained, but the debt is not. just look at our natio

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned Spolsky's significant bias in this argument: His company makes bug tracking software! Of COURSE he wants to cast unit testing in a bad light - done properly, it could put him out of business.
