Blockbuster to Close 300 Stores.
@3- yes, but only some libraries as @5 pointed out. many librarians are wedded to the 19th century library "ideal" of the public library being spring of intellectual betterment for the unwashed masses. I'm lucky in that I live in a town that has a modern and clued in library director calling the shots at the local library (we not only have movies, but TV shows all on DVD/blueray). But as a library advocate I hear from grumpy people ALL the time about how we need to get rid of all the DVDs.

@11 I totally agree. if we had mandatory military service we won't even have wars anymore.

What I Would Do About Guns.
I'd vote for you.
and "clips" haven't been used since WW II, "magazines" is the word you are looking for. we can't talk about guns unless we know about them.

Re: The Princess Is Pregnant.
@3 oh please, that's total bullshit.
BTW, KM has Hyperemesis Gravidarum and might spend her entire pregnancy in the hospital because of it. regardless of the ridiculous media coverage of her uterine activities, I feel badly for her, she's in for a really awful time of it.
