What do you mean it's in my contract? You mean that 50 page thing full of legal jargon? Who has time to read that? I just scrolled down and clicked "I accept."
I see - you mean that legal document by which I am no longer bound* now that the agreement has been terminated by you. kthxbye!
If the kid is found guilty, she will have a criminal record for bad behavior in school.
And maybe that is exactly what is needed - an example to the rest of the community that this sort of lack of respect for authority should not be tolerated. If her entire future is fucked up and she cannot gain employment in certain fields because of her criminal record, so be it! It won't have been because she made a childish mistake, it will have been because her parent(s) failed to instill in her a proper respect for authority. Let her (and perhaps, her parents) suffer the consequences and hopefully she'll not make the same mistakes her parents did.
My take on counter offers is that they are almost always amount to an insult. "If that offer is what you think I'm worth, why are you not already giving me that?"
Get the counter offer in writing, decline it, and use it as a bargaining chip with future prospective employers. "Sure I was on slave labor rates at Cheap&Cheat Co. but this here is what I am really worth"
Nah! If he can hear the phone's click over the screams of mercy, he's not "enforcing his authority" anywhere near hard enough and is thus not doing his job properly - he'd have no right to be upset!
They need it because it's a highly objectionable idea and, after raising the spectre of GPS tracking, the populace is more likely to accept raising the taxes on gasoline. Without a less popular alternative, raising taxes is very unpopular.
I don't care what the traffic is like, if you're traveling behind me, you'd better be able to stop at least as fast as I can - and I DO stop at yellow lights. The yellow means "Stop if it's safe to do so", not "go hell for leather if you think you can get away with it".
On the flip side, no matter how close you get or how fast you go, it's not tailgating if you can stop safely.
There are really only 2 tricks to learning to eat Vegemite - both based around the same fact.
This stuff ain't peanut butter or jam!
Do NOT expect a sweet taste.
Spread it thin. Real thin. (I'm convinced that Fry's "big heaping bowl of salt" was actually an hallucination brought on by a thickly spread Vegemite sandwich)
Those numbers may well be accurate, but that doesn't matter a whit because your conclusion is wrongedy-wrong-wrong. It's not the red light cameras that increase the chance of rear-end collisions, it's the dickhead tailgaters who are driving too fast and/or too close to stop safely in the first place. It's ALWAYS the driver of the car behind who is at (greater) fault in a rear-end collision.
They are all social networking sites. Spanish (tuenti - no translation available from Google), German (Wer-kennt-wen = who knows whom), and Polish(nasza klasa = Our class).
Apparently even foreigners use Google to find Facebook-y, MySpace-y, time-waste-y websites! Whodathunkit?

I think you need to altar your attitude.
Too fucking shay!
If you look carefully, you'll see that artor3 misused both apostrophes in that last sentence.
I would've gone with Eric. Eric the fruit-bat.
Are all your pets called Eric?
Try telling that to a peanut farmer... oh you mean that kind of oil!
German's spelling and grammar regularity is what they're really mean when they say "Ve haff vays of making you talk!"

For here or to go? That sentence no verb!

Your first post is insufficiently lame and somewhat tainted with win. Be more careful next time.
What harm has the hydrogen bomb ever done?
None - Just ask the the former residents of Bikini Atoll and their descendants.
So that'd be virtual machines, then?

Hang about - wouldn't that be "our rhinoceros beetle's wireless overlords"?

At the risk of _being_ a jerk.....
The commonly used phrase is "for all intents and purposes", and please, google "begs the question".
Whoosh! BIG whoosh!
It's the same here in BC though there is at least one local woman who makes a point of going shirtless.
<Voice="Eric Idle">Makes a point? I bet she does, I bet she does!</Voice>

Or am i being overly cynical?

Unless the car in front is moving backwards :).
Damn - I forgot about that!

As opposed to the usual /. offering of whine with attitude?
Do you really think that Bush is the influence rather than merely one of the influenced?
