Do you know that in Mississippi, an ID is not required to vote? I line up and tell the poll worker my name and address and am handed a smart card to put in the machine. The logic from the Justice Department is that it is RACIST to ask for ID at a polling location. Seriously.
Thankfully there is a voter ID act that we'll be voting on in November. Of course I guess the Feds may still have their way and strike it down:(
RadioShack tried to sell me Monster branded speaker wire. "The thicker copper gives a larger radius for the bass frequencies to travel on the outside of the cable." I didn't laugh in his face, but I did buy the cheapo wire that was good enough for my purposes.
Vicksburg was captured on July 4. The Natchez people were a bunch of weaklings and surrendered to a boat. Apparently being shelled sucks. Thank God Sherman did not come across Natchez or we would not have pretty houses for the park service to purchase...
What about the all of the "idiots" along the San Andreas fault? What about half of the country that could be affected by the "big one" along the New Madrid? What about the entirety of North Amercia that could be affected if Yellowstone ever erupts? This entire country has its specific areas of natural disturbance. But we get over it.
Like at Natchez, Mississippi. It is on a bluff overlooking the mighty Mississippi and is a couple years older than New Orleans. Never flooded even though the LA side has before...
>> The police would also have a new tool as they could pull up close to a vehicle and remotely check to see if it had any alcohol in it and if there is only teens in the vehicle than stop it for an explanation.
And in 10 years all GM vehicles will be equipped with amplifiers to broadcast "Alchohol in this vehicle!" signals to "help out" our friendly police force.
I guess I don't understand this argument...do you never leave the house to go to work, buy groceries..etc.? There are tons of US mailboxes out there in the town...I always just drop my stuff in the drive by mail boxes on the way to work in the mornings when I have mail to send...
Mom goes and works and gets the groceries so that he can play video games in the basement all day!
Or the people who think Yahoo is the internet. I cannot count all the people I have seen who would type fully qualified url's into yahoo and click on the first link.
There is a theory going around that the weight of all of the reservoirs in the northern hemisphere have unnaturally made the Earth "top heavy" and are affecting the spin rate.
Lake Mead vs New York:
Mead has about 9.3E11 gal of water at 8.3 lbs weighs 7.7E12 lbs total.
The Empire State Building weighs a mere 7.3E8 lbs.
So Lake Mead weighs 10,548 Empire State Buildings! At this rate a couple reservoirs would weigh more than all of the rest of all human construction ever.
I got numbers from http://www.usbr.gov/lc/region/pao/faq.html and http://www.esbnyc.com/kids/kids_faq.cfm
Stalkernet, that is what we call my favorite university's student directory.
Anyway some guy had a kid and did not pay child support. Turns out this guy had the same name as one of my buddies and had been in school at least for a semester. My friend gets a letter from the mother's lawyer, because the lawyer in all of his great intelligence had used Stalkernet to look up that particular name. Due to the fact that the kid was a completely different race, my friend got it cleared up pretty easily.
Take old motherboard, apply pressure across it with a sledgehammer, screw to wall near door, and finally humor pizza delivery people into thinking it *really* still works.
While playing in a pep band at the NCAA First/Second round tourney in Orlando we had to pour the Powerade we brought in into Dasani cups. What is crazy is that they are both freaking Coke products!
I got a Durabrand "MP3 & CD Player" from Wal-Mart a couple weeks ago for a mere $30. It performs rather well considering the price. The thing I thought was the coolest (even though it makes sense) is that the cd stops spinning and the music plays from the internal buffer.
A few years back when my university was actually having a winning football season, I was a member of the pep band who got to ride one of the satellite equipped buses. It was great because we got to catch the ESPN replay of our game.

>Google could ever take control of it.
But they can get rid of it. All it would take is a power switch because who out there would have a copy of the entire wikipedia?
>> Hehe. I haven't had Boone's since college. At $2.99 a bottle you can get 3 bottles for the price of a case of so-so beer.
Plus it has so much sugar in it that you can go without food for a bit!

Ok kids, do not use Slashdot or the Onion as sources! But the Wikipedia is just fine!
Right and Left aside, I'm more afraid Bush/Cheney will start/commence a full nuclear war than Kerry/Edwards.
What a great choice to make; nuclear war or learning Spanish as a new national language.
Hmmmmm, what's that half life again?

>Tell me how you do that without adjusting your cruise control.
1. Take left shoulder and pass.
2. Do not die.
3. Return to left lane.
In the grand scheme of things can someone different bring up this same lawsuit again? Or once it has been settled is it considered moot?
>RedHat includes an option to individually select which packages are installed.
Once upon a time I installed RedHat 7.3 with absolutely NOTHING selected. It still wanted to install 400MB of random stuff...
So I did switch to Gentoo because I know pretty much everything that is installed.

Yeah, I know it won't really work...
"And the road is unlikely to pave the way to exploitation of Antarctic natural resources, as this is banned under the Antarctic Treaty until 2041."
So what exactly are these natural resources?
