I bet Dean is pro-drug prosecution, anti-gay rights, and pro-socialism. Just like all the democrats we've seen in recent years.
I'll take that bet. The following quotes are taken from the same web site you call a scam, so i guess you can take them with a grain of salt:
On illicit drugs: "We need to treat drugs as a public health problem."
On gay rights: "Minority champions like Dean... are the reasons that today... homosexuals can engage in civil unions." (Vermont is one of the few states in which same-sex unions are recognized)
On socialism: Alright, you got him on that one, but two out of three ain't bad. And i'm pro-socialism too, so it's three out of three for me!
the issue was NEVER over Bill's sex life, the issue is whether, as President of the United States, Bill Clinton deliberately and knowingly LIED under oath. Yes, that is a SERIOUS crime.
In order to believe that, you'd have to believe there was a good reason for a grand jury to be questioning the President of the United States about his sex life. Do you really believe, in your heart of hearts, that lying about a blowjob under oath is worse than lying about a nuclear threat in the State of the Union Address? In strictly legal terms, that may be the case. But in terms of morality (a word conservatives just love), G.W. Bush makes Clinton look like a saint.
There was an episode of Pac-Man (the cartoon) where they painted their house with "Polka-Dot Paint". They'd dip the brush into the can, slop it onto the walls, and out would come perfect polka dots. Terrible show, but that scene always stuck in my head.
Seriously though, your idea is great. Imagine (if you haven't already) being able to load images into your paint roller's memory, and have those images automagically painted onto any surface. I'm looking around my house right now thinking "Plaid for the bedroom... a blown-up Mona Lisa on this wall..." Basically anything you might use as wallpaper on your PC desktop could be wallpaper (wihtout the mess of actual paper) on your walls! If you build it, I will buy.
Just remember that most of what we now call "West" used to be called "Mexico". Americans are good at a lot of things, but history has never been one of them:)
for those who have no idea what he just said, handy == cell phone, or mobile phone, in Germany (and perhaps a few other places as well?). Most Germans are surprised to discover that "handy" isn't the regular English term since the word is clearly derived from English. I learned this from a friend who took German in college, and it still took me a few seconds to interpret the above post.
That's right, it was the *Democrats* who wouldn't let that stained dress thing go. And by "odd" campaign contributions, do you mean "illegal"? And when you say we need to "focus" on the economy, do you mean we need to make it into something that scares the shit out of most Americans by running up trillion dollar deficits and pushing the unemployment levels up to their highest levels since Ronald Reagan tried the same exact thing?!
I respect your right to be a die hard conservative, but I resent your transparent attempt to present yourself as an open-minded moderate.
Yes, actually, the same fucking day. Remember the ebay auctions that went up for the twin towers after they collapsed? "some assembly required". people deal with tragedy in different ways. sometimes the best you can muster, the only thing that makes sense of it all, is a joke.
here's a link for anyone wondering what he's talking about. The similarities might seem superficial, but it's a fair bet that whoever designed the new system was inspired by this old (130 years old!) idea.
Congratulations on not reading the article before you posted!
"He sold so many records in Iran that he thought nothing of flying to Paris with 50 grand in cash in his pocket and returning a week later to his mansion in Tehran empty-handed. Ayatollah Khomeini believed all music was sinful, and Atabay wound up fleeing on foot for his life with $4,000 stuffed inside his underpants."
"His wife, also Iranian-American, made a small fortune in plastic surgery clinics..."
So yes, the costs are coming out of his (rather, his wife's) pocket, but if you continue reading past the first page, it turns out he's burned through most of her $4 million and is now desperate for funding. In fact, the article itself is largely a plea for corporations like Pepsi and MTV to pick up the tab, help topple the Iranian regime, and gain lifelong loyalty from the world's Iranian population in the bargain. It's actually pretty interesting, you should read it.

"The primary purpose of Sliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinky is to send large low-frequency waves which are visible rather than audible - waves in the 0.2 to 10 Hz range... These move gracefully, but when there are substantial waves of different frequencies going in both directions, the result can be quite complex."
And then there's the part about waves being the basis of every chemical bond and force that holds matter together. Sounds pretty damn nerdy to me!

What do you mean by 'biscuit'?
A biscuit is like a scone, only delicious.

Where are you from? Most english speaking nations have a rugby variant that makes American football players look like wimps.
The reason for my belief is non technical; robots do not have egos and will work better as a team.
Also working to their advantage, steel skeletons will shatter brittle human bones with every tackle.

Not to validate your trollish comments but, for the record, the guy in question is black.
No, everyone in India is paid what the market will bear. In America, we have unions.
Please note that this comment does not come down either for or against unions, it's just a statement of fact.

The White House is occupied by damn dirty apes! But to answer the question, flying cars would be a good indication of "the future".
Now if he could just add a cockpit and a steering mechanism to this thing, it would be pretty bad ass. Oh, and some laser cannons.
Second post? when did the default subject become "Re:Um..."?
