    That's not very nice. I hope this does not happen to Slashdot.

    WHO WOULD WIN????

    Flying shark versus flying croc!

    Which of these aerial assailants achieves awesome ascendence? Ascertain the answer to this angry assault!

    Personally I think flying croc is going to beat the living *bleep* out of that pansy ass GNAA-joining shark. Much like how the parent post, laden with luscious links to a lovely lady, wins it.

    You could see Mao's huge cock dangling behind him when he was doing his famous world-record backstroke swim in the Jangtse river.

    Except that it's CMP media. They're not an IT publishing company, they're an entertainment publishing company. They are to the IT world as Rush Limbaugh is to Repulicans or the Tappet Brothers are to mechanics. Amusing for the masses but rarely containing anything of particular use to industry professionals. Surly the link from Linux Today was an error, for I seriously doubt that they could have found anything of substance to link to on a CMP web site.
