Listen to this guy. Yes, the things that are happening in Libya right now are very exciting, and it is nice watching oppressed people rallying to overthrow their oppressors. However, I have been disappointed in a lot of the coverage of the events: I don't think too many news sources are effectively conveying how insane Gaddafi is.
Al Jazeera English, I solute you. In a few short paragraphs, you have portrayed Gaddafi as crazier than I had ever imagined, and the bar was already set pretty high.
If only these lunatic ravings wouldn't assuredly result in much blood shed.

So, for those of you who might not know, Egypt has been ruled for the last 30 years under an emergency rule clause in its constitution, resulting in functional one-party rule over this time. It's also been a key ally of the west, being, along with Jordan, one of two Arab states to have diplomatic relations with Israel*, and to be generally friendly about the Suez canal.
Well, with a general spike in food prices, this autocratic rule, increased persecution of Coptic Christians, and the ouster of the Tunisan government, there's apparently been a tipping point. Egyptians have taken to the streets, and the government has responded by shutting down all internet in the 26th largest economy in the world, along with a huge swath of SMS and cell-phone service. The major dissident pro-democracy leader in the country has returned, with the opposition Muslim Brotherhood party reporting that its leaders have been jailed. There are reports that the regular police have been cleared out of Cairo, meaning that perhaps the government may be calling in the uniformed military.

Epic or Evo?
So, I want to buy a new phone and have not been able to find an Evo anywhere, but Samsung just came out with the Epic which is supposed to do everything an Evo does, but has a 5 mp camera instead of 8, does have a slide out keyboard (not a big deal to me), but deosn't have an HDMI port.
I'd like to use the hotspot feature to run my home computer and tv. I'm not a gamer, don't use a lot of bandwidth heavy stuff as far as I know, but I do want to see sports clearly. It'd be great to cancel internet and cable at home!
Thoughts?

Scott Stapp pens Marlins theme song - posted for valatan's benefit as much as anyone. Sadly, I can't seem to find any old discussion (which I am confident does exist) referencing the excellent prior art in this arena (I'm talking of course about "Our Team, Our Time" and "Get Metsmerized").
