You are the first north of the border inhabitant I've ever heard say they like medium rare beef!

 

When I grill a steak it will almost always be a new york strip loin appx 1.5 - 2 inches thick. I do them on high heat 4-5 minutes each side with 10 minute rest and they are done perfect.

Back to the original topic, I do wonder what idiots come up with this kind of sh!t. Who do they think they are helping?

Years ago there was a story in the news about a Jewish Olympic figure skater that was training at a rink where there was Christmas music playing through the sound system. Well, some do-gooder decided this must have been very insulting and insensitive to this poor girl, and shut down the music. The funny thing was, nobody thought to ask the "victim" of this horrendous crime. When asked later, she said she didn't mind it at all!

It's not just the Universities.. A few years ago when our local Muncipality was in big trouble financially. I got a ticket for not having a horn - marine radio and fire extingwisher in my row boat while out fishing on Muskegon Lake. The Sheriff's Dept. Marine Officers who wrote the ticket said we were under new rules that stated that because Muskegon Lake is connected to Lake Michigan all boats on the inland lake had to have the same safety equipment as if we were on the big lake.. I questioned them as to the relevance of this new law pertaining to 12 foot row boats with no motor (why would I need an extingwisher with no gas on board and surrounded with water) - they said law is law, talk to the Judge if I disagreed.. Got a copy of the current law that still showed the same old "under 16 Foot" row boat rules. Pled not guilty, took a copy of the law into Court, Marine Officers were there.. I said "not to sound Politically Incorrect but I really need to ask about what happened to the age old "16 Foot" law" and I tried to show the Judge a copy of it and asked to see a copy of the new law. The Judge refused to look at my copy of what I thought the law was and saw no reason to show the "new law" in writing but he did make something perfectly clear - he said: "this is my courtroom and in my courtroom I decide what/when/where the law is as I need to".. He then said "your fine was going to be $60 but is now $160" and then asked if I had any more questions..

 

Sounds like the judge needs to retire. A judge's job is to interpret the law; not make it. You should have obtained the state reference for the law and quoted it, and explain there has been no revision since blah, blah, blah. Seems to me the cops could have given you the reference....
