Heck, I knew long long ago that political hacks all had cheat sheet talking points so that the same message was stated nationwide.

But ladies and gentlemen of this supposed jury, I have one final thing I want you to consider. Chewbacca is a Wookiee from the planet Kashyyyk, but Chewbacca lives on the planet Endor. Now, think about that. That does not make sense! Why would a Wookiee - an eight foot tall Wookiee - want to live on Endor with a bunch of two foot tall Ewoks? That does not make sense!
What does that have to do with this case? Nothing. Ladies and gentlemen, it has nothing to do with this case! It does not make sense!
Look at me, I'm a lawyer defending a major record company, and I'm talkin' about Chewbacca. Does that make sense? Ladies and gentlemen, I am not making any sense. None of this makes sense.
And so you have to remember, when you're in that jury room deliberating and conjugating the Emancipation Proclamation... does it make sense? No! Ladies and gentlemen of this supposed jury, it does not make sense.
None of this makes sense.
If Chewbacca lives on Endor, you must acquit! The defense rests.

where is the innovation in open source? name 3 popular oss programs that weren't started in order to mimic a pay-for version. you won't be able to. and how is reimplementing a 30 year old command line driven OS innovation?
I've never seen it in first, every time I've checked it's been second place. They'd probably do a better job if they could agree on a distraction, they're split between Jimmy Carter and Hillary and Michael.
My name's Michael too, pisses the fuck out of me that people actually will get it wrong. It's not like it's an uncommon name. Sometimes it's a typo, but some people just can't remember the A is first. Anyway, I came up with a little story to teach you how to spell Micheal.
Michaelangelo is an Ninja Turtle. That's because "Michael" is an "angel". All angels have names that end in -el, because in the Canaanite pantheon from ancient Lebanon (or therabouts) servents/priests of the Zeus/Jupiter-esque king of the gods, El, attached the -el suffix to their names in the way we would use Rev. today. So servants of a later wise, bearded, mountaintop-dwelling diety get the -el suffix as well, which is an easy mistake to make when you're not alowed to say exactly which G-d you're talking about. Kal-El also gets the -el suffix, because he flies and rescues people, and was invented by some Jewish guys who know these things. So if you want to know how to spell Raphael, Gabriel, Michael, or any other angel names, remember that they're related to Superman, so -el always comes last.

I notice that most people post spelling and grammar critiques as AC. It's like they realize they are being asses and can't resist, but don't want to risk the karma hit like an adult.
