Re: “Why are so many criminals on house arrest free to roam?

Oh give me a home, where the criminals roam, and the rapist and crackheads all play, where seldom is heard, a sensible word, as our domestic tranquility goes away.. Home, Home, in SC, where the rapist and crackheads all play... where the judges fail, and let scum out on bail, who should never see the light of day...

Re: “Hearts and Plugs gets serious about the business side of the music biz

"It can't be too poppy. It can't be mainstream."

Annnnd that's where I stopped reading. Best of luck on your business, and yes, a lot of "mainstream" music is terrible, but to completely shut yourself off from that genre (And how does one even define mainstream anyway? What everyone else likes that you dislike?) based on vague pretension seems antithetical to your business objectives. Are you going to honestly tell me you would not sign The Beatles or Rolling Stones?

Re: “Domestic spying is legal because the government says it is

This issue should be one that brings us all together. We need to stop this shit immediately and make Congress reexamine the Patriot Act before they make any further votes to extend any provisions.

Our elected officials and their appointees have abused the trust we placed in them.
We are the employers, they are the employees.

Re: “Domestic spying is legal because the government says it is

PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA: What I can say unequivocally is that if you are a U.S. person, the NSA cannot listen to your telephone calls, and the NSA cannot target your emails --

CHARLIE ROSE: And have not.

OBAMA: And have not. They cannot and have not, by law and by rule, and unless they -- and usually it wouldn’t be 'they,' it’d be the FBI — go to a court, and obtain a warrant, and seek probable cause.

I'm curious, what is a "U.S. Person" ?

So no direct Charleston to London QM2 service, then?

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: “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…
