I got your missing link right here. I'll take any opportunity to take a frosty one all over the uncanny resemblance of Dumbya to a monkey. Fish to land? That ain't no big deal. O Please. This is the missing link of importance. Monkey to Leader of the Free World. Be afraid. Be very afraid. Fnord.
Don't pull up to a yuppie garden center with your V6 Hybrid Highlander and buy a $500 gas guzzling lawn mower, morons
Why not? Don't tell me what to do, hippy. I'll pull up with my Hummer, towing my power boat just to show it off, with the AC going full blast and the windows open, with my gas-guzzling lawn mower in the back, and I'll pull up and LAUGH at you, you tree hugging, pot smoking Richard Stallman loving hippy! I will be LAUGHING and POINTING! BWAHAHAHAHAH! And smoking a cigarette, too!
Walmart sells cheap crap - if your company does not sell cheap crap, you can't sell at walmart.
Well, they sell Hellman's mayonnaise, which is without a doubt the finest mayo to be found in a jar. Heinz Ketchup too. GE lightbulbs, bought 'em there. Got a mainstream Samsung flip phone, 20$ a month for 12 months then it's mine, 60 minutes a month on t-mobile, now THAT was a great deal for an occaisonal user. The bottle of Tabasco on my desk I got there as well, and it's top-of-the line quality. What else I got here. My Morton salt on my desk, got that there, too. Bottle of Aveeno hand moisturizer, top-shelf product, got it there too.
And I got my copy of WoW there as well. And the bits on that CD-ROM are fine as any other (umm, well).
Yeah yeah yeah the Muslim culture is full to the brim with scientists, humanitarians, and various and sundry shiny happy people. And they made a bunch of great stuff, and are an asset to the planet, and on the whole, a bunch of swell, neighborly people. I get it already. But the savages still don't know how to mix a proper martini.
Probably not. It sounds like a relational database, and what was leaked was the 'consumer' table. The actual details of the websites (the 'content provider' table, which was probably extensive, including principals, addresses, accounting information) were almost certainly a one-to-many relationship with the 'consumer' table
Why not boycott the Canadian Recording industry stopping to buy any music for a year or so.
I did! It's easy! Just don't buy any Rush, Anne Murray, Gordon Lightfoot, or Celine Dion. There is one other Canadian band, but I don't remember their name.
Maybe they STEAL STUFF because they NEED STUFF? Could THAT be the reason why poor people steal less than rich people? I dunno... naah, it's probably just a coincidence.
The fact that the American electorate voted in Bill Clinton and GWB is perhaps the greatest argument against democracy ever. Yes, our republic is the worst form of government, except for all the others, but when I hear people wanting to make our government less representative and more democratic, it makes me really scared.
Feh. That did not require registration when I first linked it. They must have some kind of mechanisim which detects deep linking and throws up a registration form. My apologies.
I trust no one will waste their time saying the sign of the horns is not satanic. Show me somebody making that sign (commonly, drunken fratboys who don't know any better) and I'll show you somebody doing something other than saintly.
Ah, you kids with your CRT's and local storage. You don't know how good you had it.
When _I_ was a kid in high school, we had to dial the phone to some university's mainframe, wait for the screech, and put the handset in the cradel of the acoustic modem (I think it was 300 baud).
Then, we sat down at a DECWriter terminal, which had a keyboard, and a box of fan-fold paper underneath it.
Oh, and the games were WONDERFUL:
YOU ARE AT THE TEE OF A 120 YAR PAR THREE. TREES TO THE LEFT. ENTER CLUB AND SWING
Why, yes you did! That was quite an accomplishment! Never been done before! You have validated your existance and have made your mamma proud! I believe a Nobel nomination is in your future! You are quite special, and I am proud to be a member of the same forum as you! If I were you, I'd bet the lottery tonigh, because you are just unbelievably fortunate and lucky, leading a charmed life. That was very auspicious and with your abilities I see nothing but good things happening to you!
How and why is it that Microsoft is days behind a third party in releasing a security patch?
Um, maybe because thet 'third party' is just one guy working alone, with no one to answer to, and no multi-billion dollar bureaucracy to navigate through. Just a guess.
not to mention the 'flaws' of the electoral college system..
*** sigh ***
OK, since you still don't seem to get it, I'll use a sports analogy, and then maybe even you will be able to grok it.
See, presidential elections are like the World Series. It's not who get's the most runs ('votes'), it who wins the most games ('states'). So just like how a team can score more runs over the seven game series, and still lose the series becaues its GAMES that counts, someone can be elected president by winning more states (electoral votes) even though his total runs (votes) was less.
We must beat the drums of "bash Bush" yada yada yada.
Damn straight. I'd impeach him for just this one act: on 9/11, he was reading a schoolbook to children. During his lesson, he was alerted to the fact that a plane hit one of the towers. He continued for what, a half an hour? reading to the goddamned snotnoses WHILE THE TOWER WAS BURNING FROM A DIRECT HIT OF A PROJECTILE.
That is dereliction of duty to my book. The man is supposed to be commander-in-chief, not a goddamned school marm. Any REAL warrior would have told the brats, "sorry, kids, but something has come up" but THIS embarassment continues to frickin read "My Little Pony".
That man is a disgrace to the military, and I'd impeach him just for that. Could you see an Eisenhower, a Patton, a Churchill reading a fucking schoolbook to kids while the Trade Center was on fire caused bya projectile? He's an absolute disaster, and personally, I think he's suffering from alcohol abuse induced brain damage.
Don't deny change 'cos you're unwilling to learn it.
I am always willing to learn change when there's a reason to. But I'll ALWAYS deny pointless change.
The reason the metric system is a good idea is because it makes conversion between units easy. But who is going to have to do temperature conversions?
What, is Joe Sixpack suddenly going to want to add ten kilocalories to a liter of water, and in order to know how much heat to apply he has to factor in the ambient temperature, which is in FAHRENHEIT! DOH! Foiled again by the luddite murricans!
The fahrenheit scale is already base 10, so why change it? Nobody but a scientist does math with temperature. It's just another example of change just for the sake of change, and that, I cannot abide.
Go ahead. Don't let me stop you. Just don't be telling me it's 10 degrees centigrade outside.
See, that's one of the places where the metric system advocates got it wrong. Doing silly stuff like trying to get Americans to use degrees centigrade. WTF? It's not like the average citizen was going to be doing mathematical calculations based on the ambient air temperature. He just wants to know what it's LIKE outside, and telling him it was all going to switch, for no good reason, was idiotic and counterproductive.

I am so envious. It must be great to be you.
I agree. Having Excel (and Word) on your box is nice. World class, gold standard software. It gives me the warm and fuzzies.

What is this, a joke or something? No videos of the 'android'. Just two dopey pictures. You go to the website (http://sdtandroids.com/DesktopDefault.aspx?tabind ex=2&tabid=2) and here are the specifications of their product:

My apologies if I'm missing something, but this looks like more of a proposal than a viable product.

The only thing that kit lacks is a skirt and a lisp, and it would be complete in its goal.
Only once the data is analyzed will the vortex phenomona considered proven (or disproven, obviously).
Not so obvious. The word 'inconclusive' comes to mind.

Go ahead. Don't let me stop you. Just don't be telling me it's 10 degrees centigrade outside.
