To that he replied, “Well, not _that_ safe.”
“Oh, you have brothers—that’s right.”
“Yeah.”
I was stopped by the cops while walking/jogging my neighbourhood at night just this evening.

Whether I want to admit it or not, I’ve been influenced by the popularity of police behaving badly news stories (I’m looking at you, youtube, [...]
Microwave Ovens: Failure is not an option.
In our household if the microwave breaks down, I have less than 24 hours to relieve the crisis. And by 24 hours I mean 24 minutes. Kiefer Sutherland has (or had—I have no idea) a whole television season to work things out. I have no such luxury (nor budget). [...]

1 through 24,075 remain unknown. Here is the balance:
24,076. I grew up celebrating Hanukkah and Christmas (some years in the reverse order). Continue to with my wife and three boys.
24,077. In 1995 I spent 3 months in a children’s summer camp in Ukraine. There were still wall murals and other trappings of the Soviet Union [...]
Website spam (see spamdexing) was starting to show up on some bebepool.com sites, so I coded some simple counter-measures which prevents what appears to be garden variety automated spamming.
Actually there were no externally visible changes made. At this point I haven’t burdened pool entry participants with any new hoops to jump through (such as CAPTCHAS). [...]
