The DARPA Chief died of a heart attack. Metal Gear. Whatever.

Was your wife's Prius disappointed when Ralph Nader lost another election?

Moana is my favorite Disney film in years. The music and the themes are the best I've seen since The Lion King. I didn't really care for Frozen, Tangled was okay, Brave was meh, but Moana absolutely blew me away. How Far I'll Go is such a wonderful song and your performance knocked it out of the park. Thanks for helping to bring such a fantastic movie to life.

That dude has always been one of the most underrated guys in wrestling. He's done so much insane shit that he's almost on the level of Mick Foley.

EDIT: I mean seriously. Look at this shit. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zex21kVg4Cs

Your group seems to be doing a lot to prevent the use of gestation crates by farmers. Speaking as a guy who's dealt with pigs his whole life, I'd really like to spread the word about how bad an idea this is. For those of you who don't know, gestation crates are cages where a mother sow is kept after birth to keep here separate from here piglets. We always fed ours individually by hand when we did this.

The reason behind using these crates is to keep the piglets alive. Mother sows will often eat their piglets after birth or attack them for reasons beyond me. I'm not sure if this is due to low maternal instincts in pigs or what, but I'd love to know why if anybody has an explanation. However, the biggest cause of death for piglets without these crates is the mother rolling over on top of them while they are feeding. This happens very often. Anyway, we keep the sows separate for a few months until the piglets are old enough to fend for themselves.

They are not kept in these cages at all times (as PETA believes), and the assertion that they are is completely false. You are supposed to actually do your job and let the sow out for a few hours a day. That means you have to move the piglets elsewhere. Not doing this is counterproductive to your goals, as hogs are raised to produce meat. If you don't let the pigs move around, they'll be all fat. Anyway, I'd just like a response on your opinion and what you've seen. If somebody is doing their job wrong, please don't let it reflect on all of us. We really do care about our animals. Thanks for the AMA.
