It is? I hardly ever drink Gatorade outside playing sports (ice hockey). Usually the vending machines at the ice rinks are sold out of it. I never really feel the need to reach for a Gatorade when sitting on my couch watching TV.. that must mean I'm a bad consumer.. if I was a 'real American', I'd be out there consuming left and right.. I'm probably on the watch list now.:(
thanks. i wish i had a camera when I went to baltimore with my roommate this past weekend.. I can't begin to explain it. the power plant area there (general open area with a bunch of nightclubs) is always packed with bachlorette parties, and they -ALWAYS- want a picture with the penguin. we weren't able to walk 5 feet without being stopped by someone with a camera.
i'll have to get some more photos and actually start my own website with it. get some from this coming halloween.. add a toga, sword, and ivy leaves -- emperor penguin.:D
if anyone is wondering, i am a huge pittsburgh penguins fan, so that's why I got the costume.
it draws women like you wouldn't believe. shame I don't have any photos of when we headed out to this club in baltimore. best $ I ever spent, for sure.
playing the hot new PS2 game, or playing hockey, taking a walk in the park, or whatever I'm doing for those 4 hours is worth $375 (or whatever amount I feel like making up there) to me. I know what -my- time is worth. Hell, it's 3:15 -- I'd pay $ to skip this last hour of work and go spend that time doing other stuff -- so my time is obviously worth -something-. How you can argue someone's time is worth $0 is beyond me.
Right, because you certainly have a right to take their content and not provide what they are asking in exchange for it. Information wants to be free, right?
you don't want the service, don't pay for it. you aren't going to die without your internet connection. there are far more costs to them than just the cost of the T1, you idiot.
Just because you link something on the web doesn't make it *not* journalism. BTW - As much as some/.'ers don't like to admit it, Jon Katz is the closest thing/. has to a journalist.

Yes, CmdrTaco, we know you get a lot of spam. You don't have to talk about it like you're bragging about the size of your cock in every spam post.

I *have* a penguin suit. let me at them.

Heh.
That's called "karma", I believe.
Yeah, I'll run Lynx, if you start using an abacus to do math and stone tablets and a chisel to write things down. Deal?

I hate my generation
:D
I offer no apologies
I hate my generation, yeah
I hate my generation
I pick it up and I threw it away
I hate my generation, yeah
I hate my generation
Now that I've said it I feel liberated
I hate my generation, yeah
cracker = good times

Punk.
seems like almost more than that. I play on some local hockey teams here, and our 2nd line is all made up of lawyers.
that's a thought.. send a bunch of lawyers in hockey equipment wielding sticks to this Novak guy. heh.
public service announcement: this man has no dick
... the more you know
he's also an idiot who doesn't understand the term 'force'.
how the fuck could Opera 'popularize' anything? Doesn't it have to be used by more than 3 people first?
plz shut up about how many klez's you still get. no one cares. how about you quit whining and build in some kind of duplicate story checker.
thank you
how about you eat a nice bag of hell, topic cop.
It's offtopic because we don't give a flying fuck about you acting all cool because you use junkbuster. Fuck off.
So NYT, which requires reg, is ok to post links to.
Washington Post, which just started asking for birth year, zip code and gender -- not ok to post links to.
Hypocrites.
agreed. michael is a prick, but i think we've all known this for some time.
you = tool

my point exactly. in the slashdot community, actually giving something for a service or product is just unacceptable, isn't it?
like i said. ass.
right, because it's never fair to give up anything for content. everyone should work on producing goods and services for you for free.
ass.
actually.. I think I will sleep quite well on my bed MADE OUT OF MONEY.
Yes, 'Oviously' it is pretty neat.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOO
"Look, can we take this to e-mail?"
so I can stalk you too? I NEED NEW TARGETS.
this is just sad. the last thing that's going to convince me disney is evil is a bunch of geeks singing, badly at that.
