I have to agree with Burlington here. Completely.
Allowing the government to regulate human behavior on the grounds that failure to do so results in higher insurance premiums is a fools errand at best and dangerous precedent at worst. Drawing the line is too subject to the moral whim of the moment.
I will stick with my original premise. Protect you from me. Protect me from you.
Do not protect me from me.
In a free society, we each, simultaneously, enjoy freedoms and accept personal risks and costs related to those freedoms. You cannot have one without the other.
Stay out of my bedroom. Stay out of my car. Stay out of my wallet.

Seat belt laws are bullshit.
Require manufacturers to put belts in vehicles? Absolutely.
Require drivers to belt children? Absolutely.
Ticket me for choosing to drive unbelted. GTFO!!
Bottom line -- the government needs to stop protecting me from me. Protect me from you and protect you from me. Protect those that are helpless. That's it.

wildbourbonFront room DFK leads to your wife leaving you.
@Cashman -- I didn't think about it, but you're right -- with a camera in every pocket -- yikes!
Think about the open bar, employee-only, company Christmas parties in the banquet room of a hotel back then!
I must say, even the senior manager banging his secretary in the office, for me, isn't sexual assault, if both parties are consenting. It shouldn't matter that their pay grades differ dramatically. Who is to say she is not entitled to try to bag an exec as her future husband? Maybe it worked out, maybe it didn't. If the temp wanted a gang bang, god bless her! Good for her!
However, you'd be well advised, in the current climate, to stay away from it all now.

What percentage of marriages occurred between co-workers during the 70s and 80s? 50%?? 70%?? Without the internet, back then, the workplace was the most target-rich environment for meeting future significant others (or even one night stand hook-ups). I can count at least 8 such love connections back then. Some I dated. Some I just fucked around with. I wonder, since I was upwardly mobile and successful if, under today's scrutiny, whether or not any of these connections could be twisted into an accusation of harassment? There was no quid pro quo. Even so . . .
Also, in the 70s and 80s, drinking alcohol during lunch was not unusual. Happy hour right after work was a super-common occurrence.
So, 35 years later, who is to say that what was unwanted sexual assault and what was somewhat intoxicated flirting that was considered appropriate for the time? If I remember correctly, the overt flirting went both ways.
I am sure some of what we are hearing about is legit and despicable. No reasonable man would support obvious harassment (i.e., blow me or else, etc.) But, I cannot help but feel some of this is opportunistic rewriting of history. They use to call it "sleeping her way up the corporate ladder." Now, on reflection, it is rape.
2017 -- Guilty upon accusation. You're fired! You're fucked!
I'm glad I'm old.

Whenever I ATM, I select a withdrawal amount to get some fives. For example, I request $195 instead of $200. Then, I am assured of getting 9-20's and 3-5's. My ATMs never dispense 10's.

I'd say every team except Alabama and Georgia HAVE TO win out to get in. Specifically, thinking of:
Notre Dame
Clemson
Miami
Oklahoma
TCU
Wisconsin
After Saturday, realistically, we will be down to 4 teams vying for 2 spots.

Texas Bowl (Houston), Holiday Bowl (San Diego), Alamo Bowl (San Antonio) and Camping World (Orlando) would work. All pay around $6 M. All warm weather/dome locations. These are the highest paying of the second-tier non-New Years bowls. Only have to move the dates around a little. I would definitely watch a quarterfinal Alamo Bowl featuring Oklahoma vs USC with the right to play in a semi-final on the line!

Notre Dame is in the ACC for all sports except football. 5 of 12 ND football games this fall are against ACC opponents.
BTW, I believe the CFP mandate is to select the 4 best teams in the nation without regard to conference affiliation. For example, if the best PAC 12 team is perceived to be worse than the 2nd best ACC or SEC team -- tough shit -- you're out.
ND is in the conversation because they beat excellent Big 10 (MSU), ACC (NCST) and PAC 12 (USC) teams by considerable margins. Georgia has defeated every team they played by 14+ points (except ND, a 1-point win).
IF ND beats Miami this Saturday, it is all over. They are deservedly the 2-seed.
The only other solution would be a three-week tournament with 8 teams -- the Power five champs get automatic births and the committee chooses 3 at-large teams and controls the rankings 1-8. First round games would be 4 of the second-tier bowls around December 24 or so, thus eliminating 8 crappy 6-6 teams from bowl play. C'mon, does the 4th place MAC team really deserve a bowl??

Only chance Big Ten has is 13-0 WI and even then they need an upset in top 4.
2-loss MSU, OSU and PSU cancel each other out.
PAC 12 is out - even 1-loss WASH below top 4 no matter what.
Big 12 could sneak in with 1-loss OK or TCU, but would need help with upset in top 4.

1. Bama after they beat GA
2. ND after they run the table
3. Ohio State after they run the table including WI
4. Clemson if they beat NC State and run the table
or
4. GA if NC State beats Clemson
We will know a lot more in 30 hours: OSU @ IA, Clem @ NCST, OK @ OKST
Prediction: the only teams (that matter) with 1 loss of fewer in two weeks will be: ALA, GA, WI, OSU, ND, VT.

I will show it, but will not allow for a scan.
Identity theft. Privacy. Unwanted mail.
I ask for a manager, explain that I will be forced to leave and never return if they insist on scanning and give my reasons. Then, their call. They scan, I walk.

I usually just say, "no, thank you, I'm good for now" and walk away. If she persists, I might say, "maybe next time -- that's up to you".
She gets it. They are not as stupid as we might think.
I agree with everyone that has said that the ones that ask are often the least deserving.

Detox doesn't work unless she figures out through counseling what underlying trauma she was originally medicating to escape. Even if she was truly clean for 100 days, without a post-treatment plan, she will continue to place herself near any number of triggers (one of which might be receiving cash for sex) resulting in relapse. Sadly, with no ill intentions, gawker may be part of the problem either as a trigger or as the safety net preventing her from hitting bottom as needed to finally kick it.
A completely opposite perspective, while admittedly self serving, is to realize that, as an older dude myself, we have a much shorter future (dick) working lifetime ahead of us. We need to get our jollies while we can as tomorrow is guaranteed to no one. Some might say that each of us are only responsible for ourselves on this earth. With the considerable cross gawker has to bear, who is to say he shouldn't get what pleasure he can in the days and weeks to follow. One might say none of us are in a position to deny him his basic needs that this troubled soul provides for.
