    If this really happens, it'll be interesting to see whether it show up in the Netcraft web server survey. Sircam, nimda and Code Red seem to have coincided with a rise in IIS installations at the expense of Apache :(( Could this be conclusive proof that there's no such thing as bad publicity?

    According to this CNET article, excite @home could be pulling the plug on cable modem subscribers.

    After going to the first ten thousand houses to unplug the modems, they'll probably just opt to throw some big switch.

    The Real Story of Flight 93

    In the first few days after September 11, Lisa
    Beamer could not sleep for more than an hour. Then she would
    wake up and cry. She worried about the boys, David, 3, and Drew,
    19 months, and the new baby due in January. David wanted to
    know why, if their father loved them so much, he had gone to be
    with Jesus. And there was that one nagging question. Why had her
    husband, a man so attached to his cell phone that Lisa had to
    confiscate it when they went on vacation, not called her from the
    plane? Other passengers had called home from Flight 93 to say
    goodbye and talk to their loved ones. Why not Todd?

  7. George WIPO Bush! Important Message For by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic


    Please Include this comment with your Taco-Snotting FAQ guide. Thanks.

    Important Information For Slashdot Users

    It has come to my attention that the entire Slashdot editor crew engage in homosexual activities. CmdrTaco is one such person who shares in this, and is often referred to as the leader of this purely gay movement. This cult has been created for the worship and the spreading of Taco-Snotting beliefs and values. For further information on Taco-Snotting please refer to George WIPO Bush's Taco-Snotting FAQ which can be easily found by searching for the Slashdot journal of George WIPO Bush or by looking in the comments of Slashdot articles (Usually modded -1).

    It has also come to my attention that CmdrTaco has other interests besides homosexuality (Believe it or not). One such interest includes a budding music career with a song titled "Gaping Anus". The details are very sketchy on this topic but all I know are that besides the vocals of CmdrTaco, it also includes Slashdot editors Timothy and CowboyNeal with various references to others involved in this homosexual cult. One puzzling oddity is the inclusion of Pamela Lee Anderson in the song. She is a female who is worshipped by many men and women far and wide for her large sizes of certain bodily parts. If anyone has any information on this specific topic, please post it in under this message in the Slashdot comments. There has been no release date set for this album or which record label it will be produced under. I believe CmdrTaco is planning to set up his own label, Taco-Snotting Records, with the intention of releasing the song on a cd-single with various remixes as soon as possible to catch the current popularity of the Taco-Snotting fad (Don't believe this fad will wear out like a Snotted-out-geek. I am sorry to say Taco-Snotting is here to stay :-( ). Various remixes will include the "Extra Jizz", "Snot Me Baby One More Time", "Non-Stop Hip Hop", "Gaping Man" (You know...the Gaping Man...the loose assed faggot from http://www.goatse.cx), and the "Can't Stop Till You Taco-Snot" versions. With many many more to come.

    Through a good, non-homosexual friend of mine, I have recieved a copy of the lyrics to the "Gaping Anus" musical composition. Included at the end of this post is a very speical tribute ending written by yours truely. Perhaps CmdrTaco will ask of me to provide the vocals for this ending. Please feel free to read the lyrics (In true type font) and share your comments and disgust.

    BTW, please do not reply with the intention of flaming me because the lyrics are a rip-off of ICP's "Slim Anus". CmdrTaco is the author of this fine musical work and not me. So, in conclusion it is obviously he who has ripped off ICP and not me. I am truely serious. Thank you.
