    GNAA Announces Supercomputing Project
    Impi - Black Ops, South Africa

    In response to an exponetially increasing demand on the GNNA Gay Porn Avallance project (which features enormous African cocks as well as gay sex between various African mammals) GNAA is building a supercomputing center close to the Slashdot headquarters. In addition to the largest Internet connection in the world, the center--now under construction--will have nearly enough computing power and storage to serve approximately half of the Slashdot community's dire need for fag porn.

    "It is truly remarkable," a GNAA spokesperson said at the conference. "Our new data center will dwarf anything Google builds for years. It is unfortunate that our 5.7 billion dollar budget will not be able to service the gay porn needs of all Slashdot users, but we are half way there."

    Technical staff on the project project that, once open and operations commence to full capasity, GPA traffic will consistute 89% of the data transmitted across the Internet. One technician was overheard as saying: "Slashdot members, and especially CmdrTaco, need a lot of gay porn." He then proceeded to beat off vigorously at the sight of the server farm before bending over and sucking his own penis.

    Why is the DOE such a major American Government Organization? What have they provided the American people with in lieu of our upcoming $5 / Gallon Gasoline (after the Perdhoe pipeline gets shut down)?

    And why is the DHS (which failed miserably during Katrina) more prevalent/widely-known?
