  1. Re:Pan-Galactic Gargle-Blaster on Douglas Adams Answers (Finally) · · Score: 1
    Actually it's commonly assumed that the Earth-version of a PGGB is the amazing Long-Island Ice Tea. For the bartending-impared, here's a version of the recipie:


    1 part Vodka

    1 part Tequila

    1 part Rum

    1 part Gin

    1 part Triple sec

    1 1/2 part Sour mix

    splash Coca-Cola


    Mix and drink. It'll work! Trust me! If done right, It'll taste rather like coke or iced tea, but as you can tell from the list of ingredients, it'll pack QUITE a punch...

  2. Re:My questions for Pinkerton Inc. on Slashdot Meets The Pinkerton Corp. · · Score: 1

    Hmmm. Im some ways I would have prefered clear guidelines in this department. I was certaintly singled out by school officials as a "troublemaker", without even having the benefit of being able to raise heck about some stupid - but official and public - set of rules.

    Yes, it's partly a joke. But only partly - I'm still quite bitter about this, even though I got my revenge when they foolishly honored the tradition of leaving the microphone open for unscheduled speeches on dimission day :D That was truly a golden moment!

  3. Re:China invading the US on Detecting Stealth Planes · · Score: 1
    So I take it you've never heard of the "Peoples Bomb", as reported by the great journalistic authority Gilbert Shellton? It's like this: you build a great big rocket, and place about a million red chinese armed with guns, knives, bayonets or even their own bare hands in it as payload. Then you aim it at a major (US) city, and gamble that fatalities at impact will be no more than 50%. Eureka! Half a million of those wacky red chinese ruining your nice suburban morning with rusty knives and lusty shouts of "Sha! Sha! Sha!"

    So no D-day, but rather :D-day IMHO.

  4. Smashing Pumpkins, Pearl Jam, Led Zep, Soundgarden on Ask Slashdot: What Music do you Code By? · · Score: 1

    Energetic, yet sufficiently complex to stay interesting.

    For me coding music *has* to be loud and slightly heavy. It's like I need to plug the audio channel so I won't be distracted by the real world.

  5. RS imature? on RMS Immature, Slashdot and Community Arrogant? · · Score: 0

    I'm first poster!

    Anyway: Before anyone start saying something they might regret, remember that Stallman deserves respect. You may not agree with everyting, or indeed anything, he says or writes, but we all owe him. He has worked passionately for a decade to give us the freedom we all enjoy now - there is no doubt he is at least sincere.

    Think before you post.

    Thank you

  6. Red Hat is the future on LSB: A position paper · · Score: 1

    You know, this is exactly the kind of comment that makes me want to switch to Debian or SuSE or roll my own. Linux has gotten along just fine by being diverse for a long time, and I really think that we all ought to remember that the way to achieve World Domination (tm) is NOT by beating the old-style SW companies using *their* rules. We are getting there just fine by using our own...

    The human need for a "heard" and to flock around "the leader" never ceases to amaze me, but thanks to the GPL there will always be a nice, custumizable distro for those who want it - even in a MS/RedHat/IBM/HP/Euro/whatever ruled world. That is the real beauty of it all.
