Eh, the gall bladder's not _that_ useless. It stores bile so that it needn't be produced on demand. This aids in the efficient digestion of fats.
I had to have mine out, and while there's not a significant difference in my day to day life, it was somewhat more important than say, the appendix, or the lobe of the brain that allows men to watch the Lifetime channel.

If you're talking about Starbucks, the coffee is over-roasted crap that tastes like it's been on the burner about an hour too long.
I suppose some folks think its cool or macho or 1337 to drink charcoal'n'water. I think they're idiots.
I'll agree on the rest of it, though. But there are plenty of places that meet those criteria that actually know how to make coffee.

Well and there's the l33t factor of customizing your own gaming system, and this little bugger is perfect for that... if you wanna go on the cheap, a simple Celeron can be had with some PC133 RAM so later you could fit in a 733 MHz or so P3 if you wanted. I like the idea, and if I had mod points I'd mod you up. Though what is annoying is only one PCI slot for expansion... blech. Can't complain when it's so compact as it is.

As a Canadian who doesnt live near the border, I can not get Mt. Dew with cafeine in it... Some silly thing about a fruit (in this case lemony or lime type flavor) drink can not have cafeine in it. Its the law. Like wtf? So we no choice and must drink no cafeine Mt. Dew in order to enjoy its sweet sweet taste. (well at least in Ontario as I have no knowledge abot the other provinces)
