Does Bloomberg know about this?

There's nothing that will change someone's moral outlook quicker than cash in large sums.
Majority rule only works if you're also considering individual rights. Because you can't have five wolves and one sheep voting on what to have for supper.

"Cause i'm, Blinded by the light!" Song just came to my mind lolOriginally Posted by CowboyColby
A veteran is someone who, at one point in his life wrote a blank check Made payable to 'The United States of America ' for an amount of 'up to and including my life.'
Prepare for the worst, hope for the best!
I had forgot about that song. LOL
The only problem with the light is it doesn't hold a charge worth a darn. The bedside may become its new home and only serve the role of lighting up the hall way when things go bump in the night.

True but as for charge, im pretty sure one .5sec burst of 15million candle light would leave them blind enough for you to render them unconscious until LEO's showed up... lol
Just keep it plugged in

Holy cow. How many candle power is the sun? Couldn't that be used to disorient a victim. Maybe daytime should be banned or at least heavily restricted. Nobody needs that much light and heat. Unless you are a professional like a farmer or something. Outrageous.
Aim for the light, aim for the light.

No guarantees on that one. They haven't so far, but that can change. So, if you think how someone normally holds a flashlight, they don't usually hold it way out from them. So, if you shoot to the light, you are likely going to hit a good bit of mass, eh?

Anyone remember the old flash bulbs that we used to use with cameras? They were about 2 inches in diameter and the bulb got so hot when it went off that the glass would partially melt. I remember seeing spots for a long time after having a picture taken. Now those were bright.
