If I had $100B I'd spend it on blackjack and hookers!
In fact, forget about blackjack. I'd spend it on hookers and computers! In fact, forget about the hookers...
they stopped giving what the CUSTOMER wants. That's why they always end up buying something that works: they can't make anything work by themselves. Why? Because they only think about their own corporate asses, completely disregarding us, the users. Then they wonder why a turd like Vista doesn't do well... At least they seem to understand that, to some degree, so they target something that works, buy it and then proceed with screwing it up until it's worthy of the microsoft name brand.
There is no way you can place the iPhone as the top "Invention". Agreed. Nothing really stands out when you look at the iPhone, except for the fact that it looks great. The top invention of the year should be something innovative, that stands out now, and will considered a break through years from now. Apple didn't invent the touchscreen nor the cel phone. They just combined the two.
So what would deserve the honour of being consider the top invention of the year? Well, I don't know. But let's go back in time, for instance, to the year they came out with pussy! Now that was a break through. Hell, we still use it to this day. Well, not the slashdot crowd, but I made my point...
I could imagine using this as an OS drive. No sooner do you let your finger off the power button than the login screen appears. Yeah. Vista users will start calling it "crash button" instead.
Microsoft is playing chicken with the free market, and they are going to lose. And in the meantime we should all start getting used to those "Microsoft Extends XP's Life by 6 Months" headlines. We'll be seeing quite a few of those in the next couple of years...
The fact that it says "for future Mars mission simulations" instead of just "for Mars missions" shows how far away we really are. True. Especially if you consider they simulated the moon landings so thoroughly and then ended up not going there...
How could someone steal a 3 tonne meteorite? I don't really see how the theft happened unnoticed. I have a theory, but I won't elaborate until I know the exact size, build and weight of the butler...
Hooray for Germany! Is it still bad to say this? Sorry, you still can't say that. Atrocities like the fact that David Hasselhoff's records sold well in Germany are still fresh in our collective memory!

I found out what it is: Renova Black! This scale version is available: http://www.renovaonline.net/portfolio/prod2.php?cat=5&pd=228&org=RNV&lang=UK&cor=1 As for the big one, well, god must be a very classy guy indeed.
I'll finally be able to shoot that threesome porn tape with my girlfriend...
President Bush is very excited with this technology and already purchased a floppy for his backup...

Real fast...
With math skills like these we'll be lucky if they land on the right planet.
'It's like a biped with a long dick.'
Fixed.

The obesity problem is already spreading throughout the galaxy and all you can think of are chocolate jokes...
Well, the fact that she watched part of that movie should be punishment enough...
