    Torgo would make an excellent mascot.

    You mean Torgo of the Jungle?

    Anybody else read that as "Neuticals"?

    If they try to verify this, kill a family member.

    If you have no family, go down to the morgue and claim the first unidentified body as your dear departed $RELATIVE.

  6. Some people have all the luck on Chandra Sees Black Hole Rip Star Apart · · Score: 1

    First Dr. Chandra gets to train HAL, then SAL. Then he gets to spacewalk above Jupiter. Now, he sees a black hole take on a star. I'm just a little jealous.

  7. Re:Growing Distros on Giant List Of Linux-based Live CDs · · Score: 2, Funny
    I believe just about everything you need should be able to fit on a 800mb disk.

    Yeah, right. 800 millibits = 0.8 bits = .0008 megabits = .0001 megabytes. That's pretty small.

  8. Re:I've got the press release from SCO right here! on Today Is SCO's Deadline To Sue Linux User · · Score: 1
    Your browser refers to itself as a collective "we"?

    Isn't that the default "domain not found" error page in Internet Explorer? Does that answer your question?

    US educational system

    Schools that teach kids the notion that "oftly" is a word.

    running into a string of hairy hardware problems

    Maybe your clients need to shave? Or at least wear long pants and shirtsleeves.

    Actually not, it would be undefined.

    It can be stated as: "Navy Smart Ship in the Water".

    Lucas electrical systems. They were a bitch in my MG, too.

    If you've ever felt depressed, disappointed, been discouraged, or have in any way failed to any extent in any endeavor you have ever attempted, ask your doctor about Lobotomol.

    Is that the one that causes you to bleed out your ears, or the one that combines severe constipation with uncontrollable diarrhea?

  15. Re:This would be in America. right? on Cell-Phone Wars · · Score: 1
    Somewhere you can't get service is abnormal.

  16. Re:I dont think I would hack my car on Hack Your Car · · Score: 1
    Of course it depends on the nut, but in most cases something really major that you have forgotten will fail before you even get out of the driveway.

    If it's the one behind the wheel, chances are it'll fail in the middle of the most crowded part of the most crowded street that I have to travel on during rush hour.

  17. Literally hundreds of applications here on Earth on NASA Prepares to Open Source Code · · Score: 1
    It's also nice to see code that taxpayers paid for anyway being released for their use too.

    Anything from watch making, to watch repair.

  18. Re:Russell seems a bit dated on Is Open Source Fertile Ground for Foul Play? · · Score: 1
    But when I get my hands on them, they'll pay. Oh, how they'll pay!!

  21. Re:256MB memory on Details Of Palm OS 6 - 'Cobalt' · · Score: 1
    I suppose this is a lot for a Palm, but what's the imitation?

    It's imitating a PC, perhaps?

    Try this. It may help.

  23. Re:In related news ... on Microsoft Sits on Security Flaw for Six Months · · Score: 1
    A flaw was found in AOL Instant Messenger relating to the A/S/L library.

    The reports of this were premature. It's actually a harmless jitter in the "Me 2" automation engine included with the Email/Newsreader portion of AOL 9.0 Super-Double Top-Speed Optimized.

  24. Well then on What If Dark Matter Really Doesn't Exist? · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Opera is a nice browser, but honestly how many people do you know that actually regged it?
