  2. My $0.02 worth. on KEO Time Capsule To Remain In Orbit 'Til 52001 AD · · Score: 1
    Ah, when I think of what to write to the people of the future, I stop to ponder, will you even understand my language? I think not, so I will leave you with the following thought:

    There once was a whore from Sydney,
    Who could take a penis up to the kidney.
    Along came a client from Quebec,
    Who crammed one up to her neck.
    Gee, he had a long one,
    Didn't he?

    On the off chance that you understand me, please unfreeze my body, I want to get laid by a future chick!

    I just want everyone to know that we here in the dawn of the 21st century have a sense of humor, we bitch and gripe a lot but all in all, we have a good time and work hard. To you future generations, never give up your guns, never give up your freedom and shoot anyone who tells you that you should!

  15. This is Netscape's Problem, NOT Java's. on Java Security Hole Makes Netscape Into Web Server · · Score: 1
    This hole exploits Netscape's implementation of Java, not Sun's spec. As a Java instructor, I am encouraged by the acceptance it has received in the business world. Applets are pretty cake that brought a lot of attention to Java. It's n-tier capabilities are the meat course.

    Ah, when will Mozilla be ready? I am tired of using IE. Now if we could convince the people building Mozilla to:

    1. Separate the email client from the browser and get rid of that silly profile idea.

    2. Make said email client be able to access multiple accounts from the same instance of the client.

    3. Incorporate the ability to block off server URL's for ads, images, and content.

    4. Incorporate a black list for URL's.

    Just my turn to rant!

  24. Oh NO! on Star Wars Episode 2 Starts Shooting · · Score: 1

    Australia(AP)- Today, in a freak Lightsabre(tm) accident, the noted Jedi sidekick, Jar Jar Binks was killed. Sources say that Binks, a Gungan from Naboo, was accidentally cut in half by young Jedi apprentice, Anakin Skywalker, during a Lightsabre(tm) training exercise.

    Although there are preliminary reports that Skywalker is dispondent over the accident, some people thought they heard a maniacal laugh comming from his quarters.

    In an apparantly unrelated event, some people have been reporting a figure in a dark cloak, loitering near the Skywalker compound where the accident took place.

    Skywalker's wife, Princess Amadala Skywalker of Naboo, is reportedly in Hyperspace with their two young twins, Luke and Leia, returning to the Skywalker compound to be with her husband during this tragic time.

    The funeral for Binks will be a small affair with only friends and family attending.

    Republic Investigations Unit TXH-1138 released a statement saying that although this appears to be a training accident, the case will be thoroughly reviewed.
