not just subsidies, price supports that artificially pay (mostly corporate) farmers above the market price. and who buys the most milk? young parents, not the wealthiest demographic.
I just LOVEthinkgeek! Especially the "fash" section, where I learned to cut the bottom off of an old shirt to use as a hair enhancement! Oh, and the "dance
party" photos!
Of course, don't forget to read the thinkgeek emails! Here you will discover how truly difficult it is to decide what to do on the weekends... have a pizza party? A
fash party? Go to the mall with all of your friends? Have a sleepover and call boys on the phone?
In short, if you haven't checked out thinkgeek, you don't know what you're missing!
Almost as bad as the motherfuckers who are spamming trolltalk and making it fucking useless for fucks like us who have fucking shit we need to get done. (Not quite as bad since I use NS4.7.)
"You don't need to be Kreskin to predict Unix's future. The handwriting is on the wall: Unix faces a bleak future. In fact there
won't be any future at all for Unix because Unix is dying. Things are looking very bad for Unix. As many of us are already aware, Unix
continues to lose market share. Red ink flows like a river of blood."
Shareholder value, on balance, is a very good thing to focus on. It's the reason many well-run companies have been able to steadily grow revenue and earnings - by (surprise!) focusing on businesses where they know what they are doing and have efficiencies that work in their favor. Though the Nasdaq bubble was a negative consequence of this, I suspect we are all doing better, both as investors and as customers, with companies that are focused on shareholder value (e.g. GE) than we were with the mega-conglomerates (e.g. ITT) of the 60s and 70s that wasted vast amounts of energy to hold the damn things together.
I got a letter published in the NY Times. (scroll to the bottom) I tend to think the media are not taking this seriously (yet) - except the Mercury News which is bashing it frequently. EFF where are you?
I get the Times and every Thursday I cringe when I turn to the "Circuits" section, which is really nothing more than fluffy non-news packaged like a section so they can sell computer industry ads. This would be funny if it weren't so mind-numbingly awful every single week. I take it about as seriously as the Automotive section on Sunday - i.e. it gets thrown on the floor, and stays there until I get around to taking out the recycling.

It's still funny, in a highly obscure kind of way.
a story where The Turd Report can be modded up to 5!

For example, if it's dying?
that's all

It's also the website that ran a ton of Virtual Studio .NET ads a few weeks ago. Sauce for the gander indeed.

I will gladly participate. Set it up!

But you really couldn't imagine someone trying to sell a book called The Electric Knife Chronicles, could you? Can you imagine something more boring?
Hey NYT, if you're reading: stick a fork in it.

Well then, fuck that. NEXT!
Sorry for your loss and sorry these assholes are not showing respect.

Not free as in beer, free as in free market, ergo free as in pay. Weird, I know, but it makes sense if you're a Capitalist Tool.
