How is this legal? How can they seize my laptop or cell phone for any reason?
A federal judge today upheld a President Barack Obama administration policy allowing authorities along the U.S. border to seize and search laptops, smartphones and other electronic devices for any reason.

Every now and then I feel like I "miss" MacsBug, but really I am just remembering an earlier OS. In no way do I actually miss MacsBug.

I'd like to buy two sew-on patches each of the Pittsburgh Penguins, Pirates, and Steelers. Ideally they'd be about 4" x 4".
What's the best place to buy them?

The beginning of an email. I've gotten a few of these, and absolutely none of them strike me as "obvious."
Perhaps the fact that they're all found in my spam folder is what is supposed to make the sender "obviously" a "professional social media business manager?"
Please.

Don't watch it if you're aggravated by cursing. The other Nerd3 videos are funny, too, but this may be the funniest.
