    Lol, loved the article. What is ironic, is that I read it on my second monitor, which runs on a Voodoo3 video card.

    So when I take you wallet, rape your wife and strangle your little dog, you are going to do what? Yell at me? Because if it is a violation of human rights to beat a person, then it is wrong, no matter what the provocation is, be it playing with an electrical receptacle at age 3 or raping your wife at age 40. BTW, your opinion something is wrong does not in any way make it a fact. It is an opinion.

    There is also the how big of a deal is it idea. My son when he was young, was not allowed to run through the house raising hell. When he would and it got on my nerves, I would give him the "Are you supposed to be doing that?" question in a loud voice. And he would stop running though the house, for ten to fifteen minutes (if I was lucky). Point being, it was not a big rule needing to be enforced with time outs, room time, taking or popping his ass. I had trouble getting my wife to understand that you make rules, and just like in the real world, some are minor while some are real important. Everything a lid does does not require punishment or discipline.

    Discipline is needed by kids, just as limits are. There is a huge difference between discipline and beatings. Beatings are when my dad sent me to the hospital three times before I was 8 for broken bones. Discipline was when my son was 8 and I popped him on the ass and sent him to his room.

  6. Re:World Record on The Dangers of Being Really, Really Tired · · Score: 1

    Weak dude. Give me about 2oz of crank and a few syringes, and I'll do 14 days with no problem. Of course, throw in some heroin to chill the edge of perception hallucinations after the first three days, and some valiums/xanaxes to help after 7 days, because the nerves are frayed and the crap starts creeping up on you when you ain't looking, so you got to look all the time. So glad I put that shit down and just went back to drinking large quantities of alcohol. The buzz ain't as good, but the down side is nowhere near as bad.

    there is the possibility the lawyer told her not to object to his leaving and that he would waive/slash her bill. Just to get moving down the road. Plus, IANAA, but can't he write off her non-payment against his total income?

    Lol, love the caps. Are you upset because your way of thinking has been shown to be a failure in the age of digital media? Or maybe you thought you could be a rich and world famous textbook writer and had your sucky book pirated by people who thought you charged too much? In either case, you sound like a loser.

    I have never had any government assistance, and I bought 100% juice for my son. The crap from concentrate, real juice added and the rest is just that, crap. I really preferred him to drink milk and water, but he did like juice so he got that too. He ate beef raise by kin with no hormones, antibiotics and fed on grass. Chickens we raised in the yard. No pork because I could not find a good source and did not want to raise them myself. It is a royal pain to feed a kid right, but what else are you going to do?

    Lol, no watching TV for me, maybe 10 hours in the last three years. Very little video games either, flash based games a couple of times a week, Diablo I when I am really drunk. Watch movies only with women, so I can pretend i am sensitive and caring, and it leads to a higher percentage of times i get laid. But if these scumbag politicians try to tax my /. time, oh hell, I am braking out the bathtub nukes and going to war.

    You forget the little fact if we refuse to buy the stuff they tax, they'll just tax something else to raise their revenues. The men with the guns and power will get the money they want, be it if they are criminals robbing you in an alley, or fellows wearing 2000.00 dollars suits in the Congress.

  18. Re:Why not just change business model? on Why Bother With DRM? · · Score: 1

    Actually, this is not true. i got tired of playing WoW and stopped my subscription. After a couple of months, I thought about playing again, but got sidetracked and did not. When it finally did cross my mind, I checked into running my own private server. It was remarkably easy, and now I play WoW by myself, or with friend if they want to connect and run some together. The good thing is no idiots, no bots, no monthly fee, no pointless grinding to get gold.It is lonely out in the barrens at times, grinding those damn birds looking for the deviant fish recipe, but on the whole I enjoy it more playing alone than with a bunch of kids crying and flapping e-peens. I never have been into the big raids and such, so the inability to do more than five man raids doesn't really bother me.

    Really? I should have shot myself because I lived in a rural area without cable and the only high speed(lol) available was satellite. My drive way was 1/4 of a mile long, so when cable came about a year before I moved, the company wanted me to pay over $700.00 dollars to run cable to my house. So, I guess you think everyone should move into apartments and live like rats in a cage. Fuck you.
