Hmmm, I think an amendment to the third clause should be that they pay you for 6 months without your work then. Otherwise they find a new employee as I need to put food on my table, and 6 months of unemployement is not an option.
Ah yes. But you don't have $20 anymore. You only have $19.99 (or some value less than $20), since you have now devalued the Jackson through inflation.
This is what the RIAA and MPAA and other IP owners are so concerned with when people freely trade other people's content. The devaluation of their product because is has been mass produced through invalid channels. I'd imagine the government will get pretty pissed off if you start copying Jacksons also.
Remember that sound bite did not happen until *AFTER* he lost Iowa. Far too many think that Dean lost momentum from his screech, but he lost momentum before that. Iowains (is that a word?) simple looked at Dean's platforms and views and said he is either not electable, does not represent their views, or is not fit for office.
Have they figured out if the melt in your hand at all?
Or where the mutant blue M&M's came from?
Or why M&M's are now missing their colors?
Personally, I bet the new blue M&M's stole the colors from the rest of them. They are probably holding the color's hostage. They even put out a out a ransom for them! Luckly atleast the orange color has been found according to authorities.

Razor distrubuted far more games than apps. The two realms are totally different. I can't believe that OSS could ever possibly be a solution for commercial games.
What does it matter that Razor distributed games rather than apps? Both require developers to produce. If you do not like the fact that a game is $50+, don't play it until it hits the $20 rack, or $10 rack, or what ever level rack you feel it is worth. But also do not play the game until you have bought it. Otherwise the developers will not get the point that you think they charge too much for their games, they will see you as a pirate taking what they have spent time and effort writing so they can take a paycheck home at the end of the week.
I've had a machine with more memory on my video card than system memory. It was my firewall box, and the only video card I had laying around was a 64mb card, and using iptables and the pppoe software wasn't worth any extra memory for the box.
Personally, I don't think the government should be funding space exploration (or health care, for that matter), so I'm not arguing in defense of NASA, just in defense of actually considering the numbers.
Space exploration I see as a initially as defense and military spending. It would be foolish for the government to not spend on space exploration, or atleast space base technology. In the event another nation were to overtake us in space based tech they would be able to potentially gain a huge advantage over us by removing satalites. A moon base would simpley be useful as a military facility as a defensive location and preventative measure for other countries not to get any "smart ideas" just because they are in space.
What if you are at a table with a bunch of quadriplegics, but you are not sure who is and who isn't? Then "Can you pass me the salt," is a perfectly valid question.
Granted, most people are not at a table will a bunch of quadriplegics, so maybe I'm streching.
Even better, I once got into an accident while sitting on the couch.
Parked at the top of my driveway, ice melted under the tires and slid down the driveway into my brothers car, which was pushed into the garage door, which pushed my parents car into the back of the garage. All while I was sitting inside the house on the couch.
Are you saying if I point my machine to print at lpt://pavelow.com/counterfitingPrinter I can't print out a couple bucks?!?
Its obviously my rights online cause idiot^Hmichael posted it and he cannot figure out how to use other catagories.
It seems perfectly normal to me for a company to cover its but here. If someone did start printing off dead presidents with their printers/software there would be a contingent of folks that would cry for suing the manufacturers of these printers. It would be like folks suing tobacco companies, or gun makers for making products that allows people to do stupid things.

I take it a little farther, actually. If a driver is proceeding along a fast road and, approaching an intersection, makes a fast left-hand turn into the wrong lane of oncoming traffic, what will happen to him? There will be a head-on collision and he will die. Will the traffic signals stop him from doing that? No. The car? No. The road? No. Henry Ford? No.
So, you are advocating making screwing up on a computer lethal?.........
Okey, I'm for that. It doesn't seem like such a bad idea.:-)
After all, if we are no different from animals when it comes to genetic testing, why would eating tastey people be any different? That would be a logical step from your point.
Otherwise, people and animals are different and you have to admit as such. So since we are different we can eat animals and test on animals.
Threat deterrent: So everyone should have guns so that nobody uses them? Lovely logic there. It's practically the fucking cold war.
And you are still here after the cold war to complain that its methods did not work, lovely logic there. MAD works, while it may not be a choice state to be in, it is far better than being in the state of the former soviet union, huh?
Self defense: How is that different than threat deterrent? Oh, you said "there are three", maybe you realized.
Self defense is actually using the weapon, deterrent is to avoid the assualt in the first place. If you do not grasp this concept, there might not be any hope for you.
Entertaining sport: While I won't deny that there is some entertainment to be had, if that was the sole reason for guns I'm pretty sure you could do just as well with non-lethal devices, except of course for the "fun" of using something that's actually capable of killing.
Sure, I could do it with something else, perhaps bows instead? Wait, those can kill. How'a'bout knife throwing? Nope, those can kill to! Fencing?! AARRRGHHH! They can all kill! Maybe if I threw javelin! Nope, can't do that either! Perhaps if I throw rocks, grrr! Everything kills, life is so dangerous!
Another note here, why do you wish to take my freedom away? My freedom to responsibley own a gun and use it as I wish in perfectly legal ways? Heck, I haven't even brought up hunting which is a popular sport until now because we were only looking at hand guns right now anyways.
Armed populace: So the primary purpose of guns is so that everyone can have guns. Wonderful.
You see, the state or an outside force is likely going to have guns. Why should we strip guns away from those who the state is meant to protect if the state goes bad? Should we lay down like those who live under repressive regimes and not fight for our rights? So, yes, it is wonderful.
Second, had every man and woman on the planes from 9/11 had a gun I can bet that neither attack would have been successful. Sure, people would have stilled died, but far fewer and we would still have two landmark buildings (actually more) standing in NY today.
And to think it was ME that got the -1, troll. Unbelievable.
Yeah, I'm surprised to, typcial \. would support your views usually. Guns == bad, privacy == good, but how do we defend our right to privacy? Usually that little lack of consistency fails too many here.

Wow! And editor graces the message board. Not only that, he acknowledges a mistake. Good showing timothy.
I know the editors take a lot of insults left and right, many deserved, many not. But here is a true compliment. Good job.

Ha! What did I tell you, sure enough, it may not be your submission in particular, but look who just posted it.
michael is so predictable.
Depends if michael is manning the queue. If its anti-Bush/US he sets it up right away.

dont have to directly pay for (Its in our taxes)
How much cheaper can you get than FREE?
Does the education system suck in Australia? They certainly should be paying for logic classes instead of healthcare for your own sake.
Bah, you fool!

Weather ball grey, foggy today.
We drive by it on our way to work also and have seen a couple buggy versions. Or like when its foggy, we figure the ball must be grey.
You obviously don't use gentoo then huh? For some crazy reason they insist on putting .keep files in every stinking directory! </sarcasm>
No, I agree. I have gotten into the habit of using rmdir also, or atleast double checking everything before I do an rm -rf.
Even better would be some sort of "spidey sense" which would hit right before you do a:
.old .old not found
% rm -rf *
error: file
Even if it hurt, that would be a life saver.
I take it a little farther, actually.
