You are right. If you go to ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases and check the datestamps on the directories, FF 1.0.8 was released in mid April '06, the same date that FF 1.5.0.2 was released.
Fuck, this is insightful? Did you know that Japan had plans to invade the US West Coast and destroy the Panama Canal? Whether or not they could hold that territory is immaterial.
You've also forgotten the Cuban Missile Crisis. Had things gone badly, the Soviets would have nuked us then invaded.
The best part? The fundies in power who won't let such terminally-ill people commit suicide or be willingly euthanized because it's against their religion, and they're not willing to step up and pay for it. If I'm ever in that situation, I'll do my damndest to check out before my family is destitute from paying for my meds. Prolonging my life for a short time isn't worth that much.
See the ruckus over Oregon's death-with-dignity law. See der Fuehrer and congressweasels scrambling to take away Oregonians' right to die as they see fit.
I had to read Illuminatus! 2-3 times before I started to Get It, and now I've read it 5 or 6 times and it's maybe my Favorite. Book. Ever. The first read-through was pretty difficult because of all the jumping around and obscure jokes, yes. Try reading it again and see if you like it any more.
PS: Yes, I'm Discordian and was starting on that path when I first read it.
The Government is NOT your friend. Ask any soldier who has been to war. It's a necessary duty, but once they don't need you anymore they resent you for having to meet their contractual obligations.
You said it. Recall that just after the current hostilities started Congress and Bush decided to cut veterans benefits, but IIRC restored them after sufficient outrage. Recall also the incident with the Bonus Army during the Great Depression.
Pretty much. He and the other guy probably don't know any military people and so it's easier to stereotype than think. I know many military people and they're human just like you and me. There are always the bad sort (see My Lai), but most are just trying to do the best they can, given the circumstances.
Fuck me. I wish I had unlimited mod points so I could mod down every one of you fucking wankers who think it's clever to post that to/. for the ten thousandth time.
Grumble. My rep is one of those born again Republo-fascists who believes in authoritarianism, power, and the Bush administration, and MO-7 is populated by so many ignorant "conservatives" that I sincerely doubt we'll be quit of the piece of shit until he either retires or someone gets something on him (preferably something of lead or rope).
Yeah, because there were lots of in-game ads and microdownloads on pirated Apple ][ and C64 games. Not to mention the original Doom and Wolfenstein 3D.
People will always come up with excuses for why they pirate software.
Collings Foundation? I went a few years ago when they visited the old Kansas City airport. Man, what an experience. I wish I had $400 or whatever it is to catch a ride in a Fort; or I might take my grandfather up in the B-24 (ex-gunner), but I'm not sure if he'd be into that.

I can't determine the truthiness of what you're saying.
How much do you trust certain media corporations not to abuse that? Faux News for one.

On the other side, there's the GI Bill.

Bob is a trip. As another poster said, he's opened my eyes to a whole new way of looking at things.
ObJoke: Why don't Congressmen use bookmarks?
Because they prefer their pages bent over.
Some poorly-written programs also require access to subkeys of HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, while the non-braindead thing to do is use HKEY_CURRENT_USER.

Data point: the customs official I dealt with at the Glasgow airport (the main one, not Paisley) was a grouchy, nosy bitch.

That's the way we do things, lad, just making shit up as we wish.
