We hit Spirit Mountain for the weekend.
On Sunday, I took Gigglez to see the portion of the Oregon Coast that she has not visited.
We went from Lincoln City up to just before Seaside then back to town.

We stayed in a junior king suite with the jetted tub etc.
Next time (perhaps in August when Bill Engvall comes to town) we will stick with a regular room.

I am not much of a gambler, but had a good time as long as I kept in mind that I was just paying for entertainment, not trying to earn a living or retirement at the penny slots.

Too bad the house was not empty when we returned. . . it a little too abrubt jolt back to reality.

Sorry for the delay, I seem to be having some issues with my comments via email today.

If they CHOSE to drop the 'O' just to lay low until after the events are done, then fine.
If they were bullied, I have a problem with it.
The word "Olympic" is used by more that just the games ans they do not have exclusive use. It is not like the phrase "Olympic Games".
Getting the sole use of London 2012" was quite a reach, but sing their government decided to make use of their knee pads to make the IOC happy, so be it.

There really are not that many top level domains that should be added.

The .org and .net TLD's have been abused enough and should be used the way that they were intended.

"I can't believe the system would uphold a six-figure damages amount for downloading 30 songs on a file-sharing system that everybody used," Tenenbaum said. "I can't believe the court would uphold something that ludicrous."

It isn't the downloading that got you into so much trouble... it was the sharing of the copyrighted material.
I deal with this issue for a living...

30 * 200,000 = 6,000,000

so it could have been worse:

Here are the legal penalties permitted for copyright infringement:
1. Infringer pays the actual dollar amount of damages and profits.
2. The law provides a range from $200 to $150,000 for each work infringed.
3. Infringer pays for all attorney’s fees and court costs.
4. The Court can issue an injunction to stop the infringing acts.
5. The Court can impound the illegal works.
6. The infringer can go to jail.

He has had far too much in the way of diversions and needs to spend some time.

There are plenty of madams out there as well. . .

I would hope that the owner had more of a spine than that.
oh well.

I wonder if I were to post a map of the area on my website, but rename the body of water to the Gulf of Iran Can Bite Me, would they file action?

I thought karma was supposed to work...

I suspect that there will be quite a line out the doors of their venues.
