Griffin is reading my profile.
Nov 20 Griffin commented on Local Hardcore Band's New T-Shirt Celebrates Alleged Cop Killer.
Apparently the shirt's been pulled from the producer as the product can't be found now.
Nov 19 Griffin commented on The View From My Window.
The cop who did my DARE instruction back in the early '90s wound up arrested a couple years later for being a drug dealer. I found it somehow fitting.
Nov 10 Griffin commented on We Can Rebuild You.
Penile cancer can be caused by HPV infection. So, jsut to be safe, give your sons Gardisil.
Nov 10 Griffin commented on Pyrrhic Olympic Victory: Chasing the Poor Out of Vancouver's Downtown Eastside.
Perhaps they'll turn the Olympic Village into low income housing after the Games?

Homelessness and drug use are notoriously difficult problems to solve in any meaningful long term way.
Nov 1 Griffin commented on Boo!.
Be careful with the garlic and other unusual treats. I have a friend who only hands out individual tea bags and prewrapped American cheese singles to all trick-or-treaters. (This is in Des Moines, IA.) His house is one of the most popular in his neighborhood because of the wacky factor.
Oct 30 Griffin commented on Savage Love Letter of the Day.
Wait two years and go to college? In the meantime, enjoy your porn.
Oct 30 Griffin answered a bunch of weird questions about himself or herself.
Oct 30 Griffin commented on DJ Hero: "Pick Me, I'm an Urban Guitar Hero!".
The Music Hero stuff has gone down the tubes since Activision bought Red Octane. Endless sequels a la Guitar Hero are going by the by as more good DLC keeps coming out for Rock Band. Maybe this game will bring the last few stragglers who have yet to buy a Something Hero into the fold, or maybe just those who don't like metal. I, however, have zero interest in this one.

But yes, a kinda cool intro video.
Oct 23 Griffin commented on Who Wants to Be a Journalist?.
I would guess that journalists have a smaller number of debilitating career-related injuries than pro athletes, but I think the comparison is fair.
Oct 23 Griffin commented on Who Said It?.
@18, your types amaze me with your ability to create long strings of only tangentially related material. It's like that old BBC show Connections but without the logic.

Sure, let's go back to the Bible's plan for marriage--you'd get to be one of several wives for one man, having been married off at puberty. You'd then spend what was left of your life pregnant or nursing. You'd have a 30% or greater chance of dying with each pregnancy and any children that survived being born get a 20-30% chance of death by what are now treatable and preventable diseases. Sounds good to me, how about you? Want to sign your daughter up to be wife #2 for your cousin? That's in the Bible too!

The whole plural marriage/chastity before argument has all to do with the fact that (until very recently) maternity was assured but paternity was not. It's that whole hidden ovulation thing that makes us humans such bizarre mammals.
