  1. Serendipity + geshi plugin on Best Weblog Application for Posting Source Code? · · Score: 1

    I would suggest serendipity for the blogging software itself with the geshi plugin that is available through it's plugin interface. Though I've never used the plugin I've heard it works well and I find the software (serendipity) to be highly configurable and just all around excellent.

  2. The Gordon Rule is only as good as the professor. on Bloggers or High Schoolers, Where is the Literary Talent? · · Score: 1

    The law only requires that a certain number of words are written for each of several classes. My humanities professor did not like the law, so to get around it she had us turn in our notes. You had to have 3000 words written per semester in humanities, you didn't have to take world class notes to get up to 3000 words in one semester. I loved that professor so much i re-arranged my schedule so that i could take her for humanities 2.

    Anyhow the point was that it's not the law that makes teachers give out writing assignments it's the fact that they want you to write.

    There is a difference between wearing "baggy (not as baggy as ten years ago, but still loose and large) clothes" and wearing such clothes so low as to show underwear, fake gold/silver/platinum teeth, t-shirts long enough to be confused with dresses, and enough jewelry to make Mr. T fall over. I have seen many sharply dressed individuals who like baggy clothes, however I have seen far more wearers of baggy clothes who look like thugs.

    Writing the name of god on anything that is not long lasting such as paper is wrong, some take this further and include god as g-d even though it's not his name.

    It sure does and you personally have the right to leave the room, or restaurant, or Bar, or tobacco shop.

  11. Re:Ug. Pollution on The Full Nader Plus a Taste of Bush and Gore · · Score: 1

    There is a large difference between a higher tax on gasoline and a higher tax on cigarettes. Inefficient engines destroy the world which we all live in. Cigarette smoke destroys me. I choose to destroy my lungs. I am a competent individual and as such I have the right to do what I please as long as it hurts no one else or infringes upon their right to do what they please. Don't put the two in the same equation they're totally different problems.

    Go read the definition of Democracy. We DO NOT live in a democracy. We live in a Republic.
