    Amazon as a retailer in non-US countries

    I tend to use it only for CDs as the selection in NZ is a bit limited and I guess my musical tastes aren't mainstream enough. It works for me, though sometimes the delivery may take 3 weeks, other times 3 months.

    Getting Rid of the Electoral College Blight

    Sorry - not trying to start an argument, but I literally do not know who you're referring to with all of these terms. All I know is, in an election, all politicians spout bs and empty promises to get themselves elected. They may even have good intentions sometimes but ultimately they just...

    Getting Rid of the Electoral College Blight

    From way over here it seemed that one person, who seemed to be not very well liked or respected in the first place, ran an entirely negative campaign based on their views of the other candidate as a person and basically ignored the populace who were simply asking for basic things such as...

    Interesting artical about what government can and can't do. It's a bit longish, but worth the read.

    Never heard of the guy. Wikipedia states he was on American Idol which is the type of program I avoid like the plague Makes me think of a Mumford and Sons / Coldplay mashup.... Good referencing in the lyrics though when he sang "Van Halen turned into Van Hagar" I thought he said '"vinegar"...
