Example A: “While it’s true that Randy D cleaned out all of your life savings, the good news is that he didn’t do it to run off with some trollop; he did it to invest in a tilde-factory on a small tropical island in a Third-World country. The trollop was already there, and she’s setting up house to receive him.”
Example B: “Randy D has authorized you a stipend of $200,000 yearly to be his Number One Sammich-Maker, and you won’t even have to live in the sub-basement dungeon underground sammich-making facility.” less

A weird twist is that today I cannot remember if I came across the stories before or after I joined. I don’t remember having read them any more after about age 22, 23, or 24. More than a decade later, I began trying to dig them up again, but I had lost the scent. I dropped the search and picked it up again a few times, but that was pre-internet, so it was quite difficult. Even now with search engines, I still haven’t picked up the trail. I have never been able to recall the title(s), author, publisher, settings, place names, character names, nothing.

And the hearings will open the eyes of a lot of people and the result will be a majority of democrats in the House and Senate next election. I also think Trump will try to disrupt the hearings by summing another angry mob. Cheers!

By “near you”, I’m referring to any situation wherein the self-driving car could potentially cause you physical injury, grievous harm, or death based on you being in an adjacent vehicle, being a pedestrian, being in a building or open area where the car might stray, etc.
* On the part about “as they exist today”; further safety improvements or protocols might be implemented in the future, and might also be the result of lessons learned the hard way after some more negative incidents have taken place. Research and development, trial and error, test conditions aside, my question is about the fact that some such vehicles are already operating on public roads, and anecdotal evidence shows that some glitches still haven’t been rectified, and/or are being newly discovered.~ less

Under the bill anyone can accuse anyone of being transgender and I think the bill will open the door for pervs who just want a peek and maybe take some photos. Included a link to more info.
