Did SCO 'Borrow' Linux Code?

An Anonymous Reader writes "Apparently someone inside SCO has stated that SCO(actually Caldera) copied Linux code into System V. They did it to build what they now market as Linux Kernel Personality - the ability to run Linux software on their Unix. Now, the open source community(of course they don't mention who) is jumping on this, because they didn't return the changes to the OS community or give the community credit. Of course, SCO says it's a misunderstanding and, get this 'SCO also never used any of the Linux kernel code.'"

He eyes darted back and forth like a stone man and he sighed gay breaths as he attempted to shove the device filled with the entire line of eBooks into his anus. His geek house trembled with fag vibrations comig from his crack but then- his doorbell rang, whistling the tune from âoeMatlockâ throughout his hovel. âoeDamn!â he howled in a gay sepulchur and slipped on a pair of pastel slacks. He trapsed to the threshold of his cold abode and grabbed the greasy doorknob that was shaped like Birdman. With a slavish sigh, he opened the door to see none other than Adam Sessler himself! A gay gasp escaped from Chris's dork lips and Adam began to speak. Quickly, Chris snapped at him. âoeDamnit for the last time you vagabond, you're not supposed to be here!â The revolting nerd slammed the door in Adam's face, but the Game Master quickly shoved his iron boot inbetween the door and the wall, wedging it open. âoeI have come for you,â he spoke in a cold tone; electric arcs coursed between the spikes in his cockneyed bleached hair. He howled as a blast of mystic Boohbahs eminated from his busy shirt and slammed Chris down the hall and into a Microsoft Digital Picture Frame. Chris grunted and swiped nerd dust and sheetrock from his arms. He rose to his feet and watched in horror as Adam brandished a weapon made from 3 Xbox controllers tied at the ends. âoeOh my word! Game periferals!â the dork bellowed; the stench of Cheetos and Diet Dr. Pepper wafted from his geek teeth. Instantly his palms began to sweat at the very sight of them, as if the grease from his McGriddle hadn't slicked them up enough. Chris tried to run, but it was too late. Adam swung the weapon above his head and threw it at the King of Nerds, entangling his legs and forcing him to the floor. Adam pulled a cestus made from PS2 DVDs out of his Spice Girls backpack and rushed Chris. He swiped at his turdly back over and over, causing streams of cold blood to squirt from his flesh. âoeOh god, the horror, the HORROR!â Chris moaned as Adam butchered him relentlessly.

    I spent most of my morning reviewing applications for my latest modeling job. I was surprised at the response of my newspaper ad. Finding one attractive girl to model swimsuits would be an easy task, out of the 100 applications I received. The magazine publisher was in a hurry and needed someone by next week. With the pictures submitted, choosing the best ones for interviews was going to be difficult. I reviewed the pictures and all the information the girls wrote. There was one girl who wrote some comments that I couldn't believe. This 21 year old blonde named Barbara was 5' 6" tall, 115 lbs, 38 inch breasts with a slender well developed build that accented her bust. She was very attractive. On her application she wrote, " I desparately want this modeling job and will do anything to get it. And I do mean anything. Please let me show you how I look in person. I will be yours to do with as you please." How could I resist calling this girl. In all my years of photography, I never had an offer like this. I have contacts for pornographic material, but never thought I would have a willing model. I wonder if that's what she had in mind? Well, I called her to come in the next day for a photo session. Barbara arrived right on time. She was an extemely attractive young girl. Her picture didn't do her justice. We chatted for awhile, finding out this was her first time modeling, but was looking forward to it. She insisted, " I meant what I wrote on my application." I replied, "OK, let's take some pictures and see what you look like on film." I gave her a tiny pink string bikini and directed her to my studio to get ready. A few minutes later I entered the studio. There was Barbara, standing next to the stool in front of the beach backdrop. She was gorgeous. Her long blonde hair fell across her shoulders just touching her breasts. My eyes scanned up her perfectly tanned legs to her incredibly tight ass. My heart was pounding as I thought about this beautiful girl's offer to get this job. I told Barbara to have a seat on the stool as I started snapping some pictures. I spent about 15 minutes taking various poses when I asked Barbara, " What did you have in mind with your comments earlier." "Are you interested in more erotic modeling?" Sure, why not," she replied. "Okay, then",I said, "pull those bikini bottoms aside. Let me see your pussy." Without hesitating Barbara took one finger and pulled the flimsy bikini bottoms aside exposing her cunt for me to see. I snapped a couple more shots. " How about your top." Barbara had it off in seconds. What a body on this young girl. I asked Barbara if I could start my video camera to save some time shooting pictures. " Go right ahead," she replied. " I said anything goes." I started the video and went to Barbara asking her to remove her bikini bottom completely. Now, with Barbara completely naked, I spread her legs wide exposing her young cunt for the camera. " Play with yourself," I ordered." I will if that's what you want, but I'd much rather you play with me." Well, that was her final invitation for me. Barbara obviously was looking for some action. I gently stroked one finger across her slit. As I did, she leaned forward to kiss me burying her tongue in my mouth. I kept fingering her cunt until it was nice and moist, but I didn't insert it into her. Barbara was becoming aroused from the kissing and fingering. We moved over to the couch where I removed my clothes as Barbara stroked herself. When I finished undressing I went back to Barbara's now wet slit and continued my massage of her clit. Barbara was beginning to moan as she was really getting turned on. I spread her legs wide, grabbed my now hard cock and lightly stroked it up her slit and back down. Then again I massaged her clit up and down with my cockhead. I continued sliding my cock around her juicy slit. Barbara was enjoying this. "oooooooh!!!" "ooooooooh!!!!" "That feels good," she moaned. I stood up to wipe my cock across her lips leaving them glistening with her cunt juice. Then I returned to her wet slit to cont

    More on this story:
    She Oughta Be in Pictures
    Sultaana Freeman has lost her lawsuit demanding that she be allowed to
    hide her face behind a Muslim veil for a drivers license photo.
    "Although the court acknowledges that plaintiff herself most likely
    poses no threat to national security, there likely are people who
    would be willing to use a ruling permitting the wearing of full-face
    cloaks in driver's license photos by pretending to ascribe to
    religious beliefs in order to carry out activities that would threaten
    lives," wrote Judge Janet Thorpe.

    The ACLU, which favors freedom of religion except when it opposes it,
    represented Freeman, who, as the Associated Press notes, has
    previously doffed the veil for a government photo:

    Freeman, a convert to Islam previously known as Sandra Kellar, started
    wearing a veil in 1997. She had a mug shot taken without the veil
    after her arrest in Illinois in 1998 on a domestic battery charge
    involving one of twin 3-year-old sisters who were in her foster care.

    Child welfare workers told investigators that Freeman and her husband
    had used their concerns about religious modesty to hinder them from
    looking for bruises on the girls, according to the police records. The
    girls were removed from the home.

    Because "TheSmokingGun.com" has the mug shot online, thousands upon
    thousands of people have now seen Sultaana Freeman's face who would
    never even have heard of her otherwise. There is some justice in the
    world.

    A CNN sidebar surveys drivers-license rules in Muslim countries. It
    turns out that women don't cover their faces for ID photos in any of
    the listed countries: Bahrain, Egypt, Iran, Jordan, Kuwait, Oman,
    Qatar and the United Arab Emirates. In Saudi Arabia, of course, women
    aren't allowed to drive at all. Why should a Muslim be able to use her
    religion to claim a legal privilege she wouldn't be accorded in Mecca
    itself?

    Facts? What facts? Just because they shook hands, and then CIA director Bush Sr. approved biological weapons shipments, and the US and other security council countries ripped out thousands of pages of information from Iraq's report which detailed all weapons in the country; that doesn't mean the US actually *gave* Iraq any weapons. Rumsfeld himself said he believed the US didn't give any such weapons in front of a senate committee; he couldn't have been lying could he? Could he?
