I heard a "security focal" in a large helpdesk group once tell us that mp3 files were "illegal" and anyone caught with them would be charged and fired.
...it might make sense to say "floating around Alaska". Personally, I think there's some bad acid floating around up there, and a lot of people are taking it!
"Years ago, there's no way we could do this," said Keith Sadler, Lancaster's police chief. "It brings to mind Big Brother, George Orwell and '1984.' It's just funny how Americans have softened on these issues."
I am not sure "funny" is the term I would use to describe the change.
But then again, I for one welcome our new...actually I don't, screw them and the fear they rode in on!
Trillions in bailouts to banks that wasted the untold fortunes of the average person's retirement funds in vain attempts they knew should have failed to make the rich beyond need bankers even more fucking rich, and the courts have a audacity to award the perveyors of packaged pop poop almost $100k per song shared? You people are totally fucked in the head. If it gets like this in Canada I am leaving - but where can I go that's not that inasane? Jeebus jumpin jehosiphat!
On the front page is this one - must have taken a team of highly skilled research scientists to come up with it:
"Flu Fears Likely to Fuel Rise of Telepresence".
No shit Sherlock.
If they say the interweb demand is going to exceed capacity, I say we either add more pipes or make the ones we got bigger...or maybe we need to ream 'em out - are they gotten clogged up with fat and pr0n and bad music videos and stuff?
In response to [GamePolitics'] speculation that "the... decision almost certainly ends Thompson's fight to have his permanent disbarment overturned," - Not at all. I have four more options, all better than this one. This was the longest of shots. All four of the others are much, much shorter shots. Stay tuned. As Winston Churchill implored: "Never give in. Never, never, never, never, never."
The LED's are here now, if you have access to the vast pool of $'s you need to implement them. One article said on the order of $60k to do a nice big home. Even if your home is 1/60th of "nice big" that's still $1k.
Blue Zune You saw me standing alone Without a dream in my heart Without a love of my own Blue Zune You know just what I was there for You heard me saying a prayer for Someone I really could care for
And then there suddenly appeared before me The only one my arms will hold I heard somebody whisper please adore me And when I looked to the Zune it turned to $gold$
Blue Zune Now Im no longer alone Without a dream in my heart Without a love of my own
And then there suddenly appeared before me The only one my arms will ever hold I heard somebody whisper please adore me And when I looked the Zune had crashed and burned
Blue Zune Now Im really alone Without a dream in my heart Without a love of my own
Blue Zune Now Im really alone Without a dream in my heart Without a love of my own
Reminds of the policy at one company I worked for: "MP3 files are illegal and not permitted"
On the other hand we did have a guy on the team who spent most of the day downloading music files onto a client laptop and then taking it home at night to transfer to his home PC.

"A magnitude 4.7 earthquake was recorded by the USGS in North Korea."
When did they sneak in there? Okay, being a grammar bammer, but really it should read:
"A magnitude 4.7 earthquake in North Korea was detected by USGS sensors in [some_place]."
Um, its not the anniversary of his death, that's n the 11th of May.

He should become Michael Jackson's lawyer...then it would be a total nut-job defending a complete wacko.
Nice to see NASA has a sense of humour. Or would that be humor for you folks south of the border?

Are most of the hits related to what a kick-ass bass player you are? And you waste your time here? Dude?!?!?!
Actually the skit on SNL back in the 70's had Ricardo matched up against Lloyd Bridges.
Quiene mas macho? Senor Lloyd Bridges or Senor Ricardo Montalban?
Blue Zune
You saw me standing alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love of my own
Blue Zune
You know just what I was there for
You heard me saying a prayer for
Someone I really could care for
And then there suddenly appeared before me
The only one my arms will hold
I heard somebody whisper please adore me
And when I looked to the Zune it turned to $gold$
Blue Zune
Now Im no longer alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love of my own
And then there suddenly appeared before me
The only one my arms will ever hold
I heard somebody whisper please adore me
And when I looked the Zune had crashed and burned
Blue Zune
Now Im really alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love of my own
Blue Zune
Now Im really alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love of my own
