On Republican Bears Confront Vermont Governor
The VPR story is better b/c it talks about how the governor should have known better than to have bird feeders up in the first place. http://www.vpr.net/news_detail/94136/governor-confronts-bears-snacking-at-his-bird-feed/
For this and few other reasons he really makes me consider voting republican for governor in the fall despite my socialist leanings.

On Midwest-Based Man Unable to Find Pleasing Meals
Admittedly I grew up in a different part of the Midwest but it sounds like Sulzberger never goes to a grocery store and if he does he's unable to find the produce section. I am sorry that he didn't seem to know that any refried beans worth their salt are made with lard. Not to mention there are 2 Whole Foods in Kansas City.

On The Man Who Makes Money Publishing Your Nude Pics
I'm not really up on my pornography laws but how is it ok for underage kids to have access to a site whose main purpose is to post nude photos? Or is there some lameass thing where you agree that you're over 18 before you get to view photos?

On We Must Go Back in Time to Prevent the Awful Season Finale of 'Doctor Who'
@cherrispryte Sorry I just decided to say that rather than launch into a lengthy essay about the season finale and how it actually all plays by the rules within the Universe of Doctor Who and was very enjoyable at least to me. I guess the kid comment is actually more a criticism of if you're expecting Doctor Who to play by the rules of the universe you currently live in then you need to either adjust your expectations and be happy it plays within its own rules or find another TV show. 13 year olds are generally good at the first choice.

On We Must Go Back in Time to Prevent the Awful Season Finale of 'Doctor Who'
*sigh* Really? It's Doctor Who, what did you expect? Personally I think it was the act of River Song shooting the Doctor that was the fixed point in time which she did but overall I think you're expecting a little too much from show that's for 13 year olds. And now I sound like someone defending the ending of Lost, stupid Moffat.

On Amazon's Warehouse of Sadness and Horribleness
@cherrispryte I'm assuming b/c it's too expensive. How else are they going to be able to offer free shipping? However, this can't be an isolated problem there must be other warehouses that have dealt with this and not had to keep paramedics waiting outside. My father works in a steel mill with greater heat than this yet people aren't regularly being taken to the hospital during the summer.

On "How a small group of extremely wealthy men have captured national education policy"
@Werner Hedgehog it's more often than not parents in certain school districts that show the need for tenure. My daughter's kindy teacher, a 20 year mostly unflappable veteran, almost felt the need to hire a lawyer one school year b/c of one parent's very obnoxious e-mails to the principal and teacher and school board about her. In poorer school districts obviously tenure is needed for other reasons.

On Republican Bears Confront Vermont Governor
@freetzy I know they're the ones that tell the bears where to find food. The bears and the squirrels.
Seriously though you learn, usually the hard way, when you live in Vermont that bird feeders should only be out when the bears are asleep November - April 1, at the latest.
