    Woke up an hour ago with an INCREDIBLE cramping in the waist area. At
    first it was a real grunt and groan to try to shit as it felt like
    semi-hardened concrete (my sick evil brain just *had* to conjure up
    images of the "concrete impatced colon to keep me company during my
    ordeal), but once I got the rocks out, things went more smoothly, and
    the pain subsided.

    After wiping off, I leave the royal chamber, but within a few moments, I
    start to feel the cramping again, and it's back in I go for another shat.

    Several times this has been going on. I shat. I feel better. I wait a
    bit in case of a relapse. I get up after no warning signs, and no sooner
    am I ten feet away from the bathroom door, I get the cramping once more
    and it's deja vu all over again.

    By the sixth time, I feel like I'm shitting battery acid. There's no
    more matter in my colon, so why the fuck does it want to cramp and shit
    some more. Fucking goddammed organ!!

    Gov. Bush Admits to "Squicking" as Youth
    By Charles McCunnilingus
    CNN.com Writer

    (CNN) -- Texas Governor George W. Bush has confirmed Democratic charges
    that in his youth, he "squicked" on at least two occasions.

    "Squicking", a term unfamiliar to many Americans, involves creating a hole
    in the skull of a sexual partner and inserting the penis into the hole for
    sexual gratification.

    At the time of the alleged incidents, in 1976, there were no state laws
    prohibiting the practice. A judge ruled in 1979 that the Texas statute
    prohibiting sodomy did not apply to squicking as no anal contact was
    involved.

    A subdued Governor Bush admitted to the charges during a press conference
    early Wednesday. When asked if he had ever squicked a male friend, he was
    unclear. "I don't think so. Folks, that was 24 years ago," he said. "I'm
    not proud of it."

    A unidentified spokesperson for Vice President Al Gore's presidential
    campaign, speaking on the condition of anonymity, denied responsibility
    for the leak. "Hey, I don't care what he does in his spare time," the
    person stated. "He prolly f---s cows anyway so this is no big deal."

    Shortly after the press conference, election officials in Wisconsin,
    Jeffrey Dahmer's home state, announced that the too-close-to-call vote
    count had gone sharply in Bush's direction.

    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)
