  1. Sad news ... Ronald Reagan, dead at 93 by Hot+Summer+Nights · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    I just heard some sad news on talk radio - Horror/Sci Fi actor Ronald Reagan was found dead in his Bel Air home this morning. There weren't any more details. I'm sure everyone in the Slashdot community will miss him - even if you didn't enjoy his bombs, there's no denying his contributions to popular poverty. Truly an American icon.

    What exactly are you suggesting?

    Beware: that old spectre Echelon is watching.

    Of course I'm not actually serious. Only a crazy, paranoid lunatic would suggest that a gobal electronic intellence gathering system would pick up on your insinuated plot to kill the president.

    Oops, did that just get posted?

    Better start digging a hole for my concrete shelt-

  4. I have confidence in M. Garibaldi by vortexau · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    I have more confidence in Jerry Doyle, the Republican candidate for the San Fernando Valley congressional seat, who is better known to the science fiction crowd as the actor who played irascible security chief "Michael Garibaldi" on the legendary television space opera Babylon 5 . . than I have in Bush himself!

    So, what happened? Did Jerry Doyle win office?
