Coffee gets you high and puts you in a good mood. That makes you a lot more likely to say yes to anything. And write long rambling emails that you will soon regret when you start to crash.
My brother moved to Shanghai last year. Shanghai seems to be a major testing ground for the Great Firewall of China, and his Internet access was all over the place. I setup a proxy server for him using one of my Linux boxes, and he was ecstatic; he had forgotten that the Internet could be this fast. Unfortunately for him, after about 4 minutes, my server had been blocked and he was no longer able to connected to it. I setup another proxy server on another port, and it worked for a couple minutes, then it was blocked.
So the moral of the story, I guess, is that you can setup a proxy server, but expect it to be shut down fast.
How about a pill that makes you lean, ripped, and muscular without exercising? Or a pill that makes you tan year round. Those seem like big things to me. And they are coming.
When I was younger, I chatted for hours every day on AOL Instant Messenger. In fact, I cultivated what my friends and I refer to as "IM game." I felt it was my best medium for aggressively persuing women and making them fall in love with me. I have grown bored with AOL chat, though, and I use it far less. Perhaps others are using chat a little less, but I doubt it. Internet usage should be growing as the older, non-computer using generation passes on and new children are born and quickly become addicted.
Can't our government just use the keyword prediction feature on wordtracker.com? It works for me! There is a monthly fee, though, which I can understand wanting to avoid.
I completely disagree. I *always* want to go see movies, and I would be happy to pay $20 per ticket. I don't really care about money. I just want to see good movies. Lately, well for several years, actually, I haven't been interested in most of the movies that are out. It may be my fault for not looking close enough, of for getting too old, but either way, the reason I haven't gone to see movies is not because of price but because of lack of interest.
There are some areas of Tucson, AZ in which you can get a high speed Internet signal via radio wave, but you need a line of sight that isn't available in many places. Unfortunately, most places which do not have line of sight to high speed Internet providers but are within their range have building codes against huge towers.
There is a jar full of acorns on our toilet. Each time I leave it up an acorn is removed from the jar and placed on the top of the toilet. I find the game kinda amusing; it beats getting yelled at. On the other hand, well, uh, oh nevermind.
Cheat, stay up all night partying, do drugs, drink, eat unhealthily. I love it. In 10 years, I'll be in great shape, working my way to the top of whatever company I'm at while the cheaters with their pathetic work ethic slowly become poor and fat. Keep your eye out for me. I'll be the hard working one with the gorgeous wife and great job.
Tucker Carlson is a treasure. Seriously, this guy belongs in a museum. Just looking at him cracks me up. Has anyone ever done a better job of personifying the visual stereotype of east coast old money?

Right, because Google should take on one of the most powerful governments in the world, while everyone else in America keeps on using cheap Chinese labor to improve their quality of life, happy to ignore the lack of civil rights in China. Personally, I think it would be more evil to deprive more than a billion people of the Google search engine!
It is ironic that one of the Slashdot's primary themes over the years has been the evilness and incompetence of Microsoft, and yet with their constant duplicates, Slashdot is either being evil or incompetent. Personally, I understand that business is business, and have no problems with this behavior - Slashdot attacts much their readership by constantly attacking Microsoft.
6 years ago I couldn't sleep past 9 in the morning because telemarketers started calling and I would hear my father (the talker) chatting them up. I thought the federal do-not-call list was the greatest idea I had ever heard of. Now, I want to hire Indians who can inflect American accents to cold call potential customers for $1 per hour. I can't quite bring myself to do it, but boy is it tempting!
I notice a quality difference between VoIP when I am directly plugged into my router and when I am using WIFI. And VoIP sound quality is already subpar to begin with. Eventually, wireless VoIP will be king. As it stands now, however, wired VoIP still needs some significant quality upgrades.

They probably get lots of things right, 95% of which they will never tell us about.

I'm curious as to what will happen if I lay down on the floor of the self cleaning bathroom. Will it clean me?
Even if your bathroom turns it white, dirt, bacteria, germs, etc, are still pretty undesirable.
I'll believe anything the RIAA says before I believe a person could live a life without ever once using a computer.

I sent $100. The least I can do, considering it is the first place I go almost every time I need information on any subject.
I have my eyes set on an 18 year old Russian bride. I'll make sure she doesn't listen to any pirated mp3s for them.

The lobbyists always had the biggest houses in the neighborhood. And the only houses with two dishwashers in the kitchen.
I think leaving you doors unlocked in a town of 5000 isn't very smart either.
Well, at 10 cents a message I think this would cost around $520 million per year. Quiet an expensive DOS.
Embrace your moral hypocrisy!
As ugly as some of my code gets, especially when regular expressions are involved, there must be some of this "art" in the picture.

Sleep may be for the weak, but it is also for the people who want to be good looking.
