They can sincerely hold these beliefs. They will just believe "not that veteran"

Saw (or rather heard) a few at a football game recently. They're still here, but at least it isn't a stadium full.

Instead we use cowbells like God and nature intended ;)

Technically, if the bicycle is motor assisted, then yes that would also illegal in Canada and on rare occasion. There was a recent case here: https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/nova-scotia/amherst-man-charged-with-impaired-driving-while-riding-e-bike-1.7576394

However, the original story and this one share a common theme -- attempts to circumvent a driving ban by using a motorized vehicle that straddles a grey area of the definition. And both involved them playing in traffic.

As far as I know, no recent cases have involve true non-motorized vehicles. Legal precedent suggests that bikes, skateboards, horses, etc., are allowed to be operated over limit. However, you can still be charged with all sorts of secondary things depending on how you're operating.

No. If Stalin's Soviet era showed us anything, it's that the dogma of religion can be replaced with the dogma of state. Getting rid of organized religion just kicks the can down the road. Education is paramount.

Was playing slo-pitch (beer league rec baseball), pitching. The other team was short one player, so when the missing player came up to bat, there would be an automatic out.

It's bottom of the last inning and we're tied, two outs. Batter in the box and "automatic out" is on deck. My shortstop says: "if you walk this batter, they cannot win." I decline, and throw decent pitches - our thirdbaselady makes a perfect line drive catch to preserve the tie. Walking off the field, I say the the shortstop.

"I couldn't do it. If I walk the batter, then after the game when I go touch myself -- I wouldn't have enjoyed it." The bench dies laughing.

Chillout ambient. Basically, the Mass Effect 1 soundtrack affected my whole musical library. I ask myself -- would this music sound cool in a bar in Mass Effect? If the answer is yes, it's probably on theme.

Carbon Based Lifeforms - Hydroponic Gardens

Solar Fields - Leaving Home

2814 - Rain Temple

Cell - Hanging Masses

etc.

For messages, I have "(arrow noise) Message for you sir!" from Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

For ringtones and alarms I have the defaults for any device.

 

We're very lucky that she is super calm outside, and just loiters when we are out with her.
