They range from $69 for a cheapie Toshiba to a $350 for a high end JVC, with $105 for the genuine Walkman.

second, when one says street vendor, i don't automatically think of some guy in an alley selling stuff out of his trench coat. i live in new york and there are tons of street vendors all over the place, many of them are indeed sketchy, but not inherently so. in fact i get the best produce in the city off a local street vendor.

third, who's this "they" who are putting bricks in ipod boxes? you sound kinda paranoid to me. being street smart and being cynical are two different things.

perhaps this is the point of the game, to require people to examine their assumptions about the world around them. i may have underestimated scruples. it seems that my answer would definitely be DEPENDS. but i would never ask a legal wizard for anything, especially a scorned legal wizard.

Do you marry the bitch or hit the talk-show circuit?

@9: I believe the street vendor implication is that the cassette players are stolen merchandise. Buying one is why you need the legal wizard later in the game.

I do still want to know how this game is scored. Do you get points for giving the most moral answer?

(Alternately, Question Land might be the perfect medium for Scruple Of the Day.)

You need DRUGS desperately and have no money. Do you call him/her?

And yes, Lindy, as a matter of fact I *did* miss Scruple of the Day.

You can get a cassette player for less than $10 at Goodwill.

There are other legal wizards out there and do you really want to hire the guy you rejected as a friend?

This sentence makes no sense to me.
