    Oh! Holy shit...well, here's me, hoping against hope...

  9. Am I the only that thought this sounde wierd? on Building the A380 · · Score: 3, Funny

    When I first read th title it sounded strange that IBM had to build a new ship to manufacture a new computer.

    But now that I've read the article, I see it's about building airplanes. However I thinks it's kind of amusing that the airplane parts get thier own rest stops on the highway.

  13. They ran out of original ideas on League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen Trailer · · Score: 1

    They ran out of original ideas. That's why they're currently trying to milk comic books (and old tv shows, old cartoons - see Scooby Doo, The Brady Bunch Movie, etc)

    I have, I still have no idea who Letterman was. All I find is references to Hostpital complex this and research facility that. But not much in the way of who Letterman was. Maybe another /.'er that's a military history buff would know.

    Ah! Yes, of course, thank you. Now...who's Letterman?

    From the sfgate article:
    Lucasfilm and Letterman Digital Arts Ltd., as the new venture is called

    Is that the Letterman of Late Night fame? I wonder. Imagine a Late Night home game. You as Dave shooting blue cards and pens at stupid pet tricks. Paul Schaffer as a help bot. The goal: rescue Mujiber and Sirajul.

    I love tripe, but it has to be cooked properly.

    I like one of the replies:

    Perl: You shoot at your foot. Or you could put your foot in the way of a bullet. Or shoot up in the air and have the bullet land on your foot. Any way you choose to do it, you've shot yourself in the foot

  21. Here here! on Simpson's Cast On Bravo This Sunday · · Score: 1

    I'm tired of all these whacko relegions running amok on my TV. Look at em all, you got yer scientologisgts, yer christians, yer jews, yer muslims, yer bushists, yer hindus. It's enough to make a guy sick. You'll all see the truth when Marshall Applewhite comes back. Just wait and see, Hale-Bop is coming back and we'll all be taken to the Physical Kingdom Level Above Human. Where's my applesauce?

  25. Re:We'll never see this. on Cashless Society · · Score: 1
    our goverment/buisness bloc is not down with the idea

    Dude, I'M not down with this idea. Somethings you just can't do without cash.
    • You can't wave a paper at a cashier in the 7-11 and slap down 50 cents and go with out cash (well, coins).
    • You can't say "keep the change".
    • You can't drop it into a fountain. (or into those Jerry's kids jar thingies)
    • You can't slip it into a stripper's G-string.
    • You can't do personal transactions (ex. giving the kids thier allowance) with out some sort of funky device.
    • Speaking of kids, trying to teach the young ones about money with out something tangible is going to be harder than it is now ("This card only has $5 on it, see? now it only has $2", versus, "you only have this many quarters, no, get that out of your mouth. no - OH MY GOD, quick honey call the doctor!")
    • Magicians won't be able to do those cool ripped bill tricks (see Amazing Jonathan, The)
