Re: “Hey Bartender posting up at the Terrace for weeklong run”
Well, seeing as the Terrace doesn't have a full liquor license, the only "drink" we'll be able to have with them during the Q&A is beer or wine.

Re: “A lawsuit against Carnival Cruise Lines continues”
"Until Cunard makes Charleston a port of call, I couldn't give a shit."
Of course, Cunard is owned by Carnival Corp., so any finding in this case would apply to them as well, though I doubt any Cunard ship will be calling in Charleston anytime soon.
Re: “The beach dining scene gets an update at Station 22 on Sullivan's”
I am local and brought a bunch of friends from Asheville. And yes, the Dorado app was to die for. And I thought the McClellenville Little neck clams Linguini was pretty darn good although a bit salty. 3 of the guests got the fish and chips and were in heaven! Could not have been much happier with the food but the server was my guess a regular there for years and she was just not very customer service oriented. Most of us won't go back due to how she really almost worked hard to not help us out on anything. No bread to dip in the linguini, no toast points, or anything. Not much in the way of vegetarian(not that I cared, but one of my guests...). And it finally got just downright funny how she would deny us simple requests. She got the wine deal wrong and disappointed several at the table and would not make it right. I will go to the bar to eat when I go next time but doubt my out of towners will ask to go back and doubt I will bring a large group again.
Re: “Domestic spying is legal because the government says it is”
My son who is a member of a DC think tank sent me this link to an article which also makes similar points... http://davidsimon.com/we-are-shocked-shock…

Is the whole flounder gone?!
Re: “Why are so many criminals on house arrest free to roam?”
Its pretty easy. Cops waste too much time on DUIS, minor possession, BS charges. The real criminals are too tough to deal with. They have to be "looked after". Lazy government workers who just want to get a paycheck for being a worthless under achiever could care less.
Its about our criminal government and their focus on letting 30 million illegals roam free and be rewarded for being criminals or putting white and black youths is jail for pot.
Surely its go to be the pot right? Right?
Re: “Domestic spying is legal because the government says it is”
Semantics, my friend. Again I agree with you there is more awareness now, but that awareness is also creating a heightened sense of urgency and tension which causes people to think it is a new and/or growing problem. So I think for all intents and purposes it might as well be considered as such.
Re: “Vice magazine's suicide fashion spread is the lamest form of satire”
Kids I have got to be honest. FXXX all you media agents for taking the piss out of vicemag. They are free to explore themes as they wish as you are too and that is the beauty of free press. So if they want to explore death and you over at Vogue want to explore the dialectics of seemingly unhealthy anorexic women in high heels so be it, each to his own. Let the reader, the consumer make up their mind as to what works for them, after all a media outlet at the end of the day should only be accountable to its readers and not to the vexed insecurities of media agents shrilling existential angst and what they deem fashionably appropriate, the double standard is beyond laughable…

You lose rights to the word "indie" when you sign to a label.
Re: “Stegelin: Rev. Chris and Mr. Collins”
Cartoon Chris Collins has a far greater mastery of the English language than real life Chris Collins...

Re: “UPDATE: Charleston Waterkeeper in non-profit purgatory”
"I would personally love to organize a public forum to flush these folks out in an effort to get YOU to actually defend your opinions IN PERSON."
That always sounds like a threat, doesn't it?
Still, go ahead. I'm game.
Re: “Why are so many criminals on house arrest free to roam?”
So the government can do a job better than a private sector contractor?
Re: “Why are so many criminals on house arrest free to roam?”
I was raised by Depression-era parents who wanted me to have what was impossible for them to have growing up as did most of my generation. What they did was from a sense that "I want my kids to have what I couldn't" Unfortunately, we misunderstood and corrupted that into "my kids should have everything they want." With the same lack of understanding, most today believe "we deserve everything."
The irony actually is that by acting in a noble way, my parents inadvertently set in motion a process that was destined to bring society back to the conditions that caused their actions to begin with.
Perhaps my sarcasm meter is not as dysfunctional as your attempts to convey sarcasm.
And finally, as I said, first time I've agreed with Tara. I have previously commented that I consider her to be second-rate hack trying to jump on the Limbaugh-Beck bandwagon.
Re: “Domestic spying is legal because the government says it is”
I don't think the problem is growing, just it's awareness. You could find similarities with programs from the Civil War, WWI, WWII, and Cold War eras without any problem.
Re: “UPDATE: Charleston Waterkeeper in non-profit purgatory”
I have reported a potentially massive pollution problem to Water Keeper in two individual forums: E-mail and in-person. I received no response to the email and expressed concern to these guys in person to which I was told to e-mail them. I did so again and was instructed to video area when flooded. Very lame. The area in question is alleged pollutants from a salvage yard and massive street runoff in an industrial area running directly into Shipyard Creek. The salvor's former location is now a Superfund site. You can just about see the poison rolling into the Cooper. But no one have ever contacted me to volunteer and come take a look at the situation for themselves. I will say they had no problem asking for money though...
