I'd rather have someone who voted for Bush in office, than Bush himself. I'd rather have someone who voted for PATRIOT in office than someone who proposed it. I'd prefer someone who opposed it, but that's not an option anymore.
They weren't arcing, as in gravity. They were all being fired in the same direction, then separating and auto-aiming themselves. They probably used the same missiles for both moving and stationary targets, to the missiles had the auto-tracking ability anyway. You can't recover unused missile fuel, so why not waste it?
Standard missiles don't "bank against" the air to turn. They manipulate the strength of their thrust in different directions. More modern cruise missiles have wings, but that design wouldn't work in space.
Bullets can't turn in space, but rockets can. Missiles, until they are out of fuel, are rockets, not bullets.
a) How many chapters was it going to be? He writes pretty hefty books. A buck a chapter may have ended up more than a hardcover. Definitely more than a softcover.
b) How many people looked at a chapter out of the novelty, never intending to pay for it, or even look at the second chapter? I expect that would account for the bulk of the non-payers. The 75% was doomed to failure.
c) I generally don't read King, but I heard that that book wasn't one of his best efforts.
d) Who wants to wait for a week or two between chapters when reading a book? Especially if the author makes no guarantee to ever finish the book? We're all to used to it in the TV or movie series world (and those formats usually are designed to minimize the problems with it), but it is different with books.
The people who had the horses were on the losing side of a gruelling civil war. They hadn't been getting regular shipments of gasoline or solar panel maintenance supplies.
First he turned his unsuccessful (but cult) movie into a successful TV series. Now he's trying to turn his unsuccessful (but cult) TV series into a successful movie.
I think the ideas were that a) Terraforming was automated, b) Once a colony was set up it got little to no assistance from home base, and c) there just was a massive civil war, and most of the series took place on planets which were on the losing side.
It still doesn't make complete sense, but it's not nearly as bad as you're making out.

Why either-or? Especially with "Bush" being used as shorthand for his administration.

It wasn't Achilles' fault that his heel was vulnerable. But it was.
It is the exception to itself that makes it universally true.
I find them difficult to see. They both involved falling very far. What else?
There's also -2. But I've had both -1 and -2 crash the game, as well.
I got a flashlight in the new Alone in the Dark...

'Nazi' should be capitalized, and you don't use an apostrophe to make nazi plural.
They didn't try to keep B5 going. They tried to start a spinoff, with all new characters.
Hard to think why. What Lexmark printer would last 15 years anyway? All they need to do is alter the interface slightly every 5 years...
You can just add more stuff to the Doom 3 level until none of the cards can hit 60, and see which one gets closest.
Way too much. Tell me when the price has dropped by $33.
Sounds like Morrowind.
The order of candidates could be random for each user.

Tivo won't always get it if the station changes the timeslot without warning.
Don't forget maintenance - and remember that these people were cut off from trade for a while.
Not if you drink Zima.

They weren't even black in Kirk's time. They were outer space Huns.
I saw the end coming for Memento within the first 5 minutes.
