The only problem with that logic is, what if the terorrists are planning on landing in some foreigh land like old times. But, because of the 9/11 incident, the passengers fight back and the plane crashes killing everyone on board. The problem is, you usually won't know the intent of the hijackers.
If working in a grocery store while in school taught me anything, it's that perverts will always find a way. We had some really dumb, non-technical people in the meat department. They were constantly finding ways to look up skirts, take pics, and whatever else they could think of.
My favorite was when they installed a strip of reflective metal on the bottom of the meat case and then shined it up really good. Kind of like the old mirror on the shoe technique. Then they would go out and "fill the case" on Sundays when the women would come in with their church dresses on. Ugh, most of these women were not in the least way attractive, but I guess that wasn't the point.
Technically they did break the law, all they need is a sensible judge to set a president here..
Excuse me?! It's not the job of some judge to set the president. That is the citizens of the United States as a whole. And we did. And that man is Barack Obama! (I'm not an Obama fan, just couldn't resist the set up.)
Is it any different than finding an unlocked car in the parking lot and opening the door, pushing the door lock, closing the door, and continuing on your merry way?
I like to do this when I find a car sitting outside a gas station still running.
When I started college I took the entry level computer class and it had a lot of women who were recently laid off from a sewing factory. The first day an older lady raised her hand and told us she was having a problem with her mouse. Turns out she had it in the floor trying to use it with her foot like a sewing pedal.
I think it would be really cool if a big group (1000 or so) of tech saavy people sat out in front of the RIAA headquarters with laptops and downloaded songs from bitorrent and directly shared with each other. They would crap there pants trying to gather names, ip adresses, anything they could from all of the people.
The only thing a union will do for workers is create less jobs. Unions are all about pumping money from the employers. I agree we should be paid fairly but unions are always extra greedy. Why do you think that most American car companies have started making cars over seas.
My mother worked in a sewing factory for a jeans company and was in a union. She was making $18 an hour (way too much for an easy skill to learn) in the early nineties to sew because the unions kept forcing the pay rate up. You know what happened? All of the textile factories in this area and most in the nation packed up and moved to Mexico.
Unions were great when dangerous jobs were causing people to get injured and killed. But now that this problem is taken care of, they no longer serve any other purpose than greed.
If you'd like to see more of our tech jobs going to India, then a union is a great idea.
To me, the reason it is considered the lowest form of wit is because that almost anyone of reasonable intellectual capacity can say something in a sarcastic tone and to try and make someone look inferior. It takes a person who is more educated to actually disprove something someone is saying or to point out there flaws in a more graceful manner.
I think maybe you are generalizing the South by a single, or perhaps very limited experience. I live in the South and have heard and said that exact expression many times and it was never taken the wrong way.
If internet videos have taught me anything (as I'm certainthey have), it's that their are always going to be enough people humping on the subway to power the whole train if they wanted to.
I don't know. Who would actually use the converter in Wordpad anyway. I honestly didn't even know anything other than notepad was still standard on Windows. I always use Word or notepad for quick things. And I use textpad when doing programming or SQL.
I think everyone is missing the point. People like to see virtual simulations of places they can't afford/find time to go. Just like 3-d versions of the super bowl stadium, olympic stadium, tourist locations, etc. The point is, build these virtual communities of say Rodeo Drive and when people visit to just look around, hit them with some marketing from the stores. Whether they shop that way, decide to go look at the stores website, or actually visit the place it is just a marketing scheme. Not a way to replace what we already have.
This is sure to piss off a lot of people being between that Thanksgiving and Christmas period. Lets hope nobody that ordered me something is having problems.
Now it all makes sense. His remark: "one 'of the most dirty and unsanitary-looking food-service places I have seen.'" is obviously because Homer Simpson was in there giving to Lisa and Bart in some sort of orgy. Was this Dunkin' Donuts in Australia, because I think that judge was onto something. Maybe they weren't drawings, but polaroids.

Him: Yeah, babe, and now you can tell your friends that your Valentine's Day card runs at 14 MHz.
Her: Yeah, but can it run Linux?
$300/mo? No thanks. I pay that much for my car. I'll just drive to Wal-mart to get my internets for cheaps (where's my coupon bag?).
personally I wouldn't shoot somebody over property (it's insured) if my life isn't in danger.
That's good to know, see you tonight.

I, for one, support PETA in everything they do... in the nude.

Pics or it didn't happen!!!
I don't need a new operating system...
I HAVE VISTA!!! /sarcasm

Why are the Native Americans trying to map out everything anyway. The white man has done all of the work already. Are they too good to use a Garmin?
I find the words Windows and nucular been uttered in the same sentence very disconcerting.
Fixed that for ya.

It's sooo hard to understand, isn't it?
See?

How did this get modded insightful. It's a troll if I ever saw one.

Can't they just look around and figure out which pyramids they are standing between and go from there?
