    I'm just bummed to find out she's a scientist. Was really hoping a fellow pizza tech had come up with this one. Best thing I ever came up with was a double crust pizza stuffed with french fries, gravy, and mushrooms.

    You mean that The People in the Bill of Rights is the same group of people in each amendment? We can't go and say that, in one amendment, The People mean everyone, but in another amendment, it only means people trained by the state, licensed, and equipped with state of the art printing presses? What are you smooking?

    No it's not. Maybe he inherited the number from a parent or kindly aunt or uncle? Down with UID discrimination!

    All depends on how you phrase the questions.

    Which system seems more exciting? (shows slide of default XP and full blown Vista Aero)

    If you were to walk up to a computer, which system seems more inviting?

    Same thing with cars (YABCCA: Yet Another Bad Car Computer Analogy): Which car looks more appealing? (shows bright red sports car on curvy coast road and basic SUV in front of school)

    This reads like a Martian found a Thesaurus and a copy of English: the Journal of Literary Criticism and then got stoned on too much Dr. Pepper.

    The entire point of communication is to transfer ideas. This is just a really bad attempt at that. It's like someone juggling chainsaws as an attempt to build a house.

    What's the freaking fear with the word Bomb? We set off bombs all the time on the earth? No one's complaining about those. And this isn't really even a bomb but more like a big rock, designed to turn the soil.

  23. Re:Well let's just be honest here on Apple's Market Cap Exceeds Google's · · Score: 1

    Attended a briefing by some Apple guys on securing OS X. When it came to Q&A time, just about everyone asked for a mid-size tower, in the $1200.00-$1800.00 range. I work at an engineering/research place and it was explained to them that we need something more than an iMac but not everyone needs an 8 core MacPro. From what I've heard, we're not the only shop asking for this. Who knows, the Quadra 700 may make a return.

    Ooh, I hope I get picked for biathlon. I have fired a gun before but the few times I've tried skiing, it's ended in disaster. I can imagine how it'll be if I'm armed!
