That was in the eipsode where Homer and Marge were spicing up their love life by getting it on in public places. Through some turn of circumstances, they wound up naked in the basket of a hot air baloon in a used-car lot manned by Gil. They took off in the baloon and somehow Homer ended up hanging naked from a rope. They came up on the Crystal Cathedrial (yes, there really is one - one of those TV preacher types built it) and as everyone was looking up, Homer hit the side, making his bare butt squeak accross the glass.
Here is a point in the film when the clone troopers turn on their Jedi generals. Yoda is on Kashyyyk when this happens. The Wookies will be wearing some sort of battle armor. They will be fighting alongside YODA. They will be fighting Stormtroopers. All of them will be killed, except for Chewbacca.
How dare they!!! I clearly saw in the Star Wars Christmas special that Chewbacca's family was alive and well, and enjoying some wookie p0rn to boot.
I think it would be a good idea to get Linux to natively support NTFS partitions. That way, users of Windows would be able to boot either OS, and easily share data between the two. The way I see it, you could have a \Linux folder, containing everything execpt the/swap filesystem.
This would be very handy to me, since I use XP for Video / Photo Editing, Gaming, and Linux for everything else.
Am I crazy? Is this crazy talk? Why not give users the option to use Ext3, RiserFS, NTFS, etc all on the same page?

RIAA: Well, you may be a 65 year old grandmother using a Mac, but that doesn't mean we won't sue you in the future.
Just because a company produces software that furthers the goals of the RIAA evil empire doesn't mean that the company is 100% on board with the Empire. (i.e. the Return of the Jedi argument from the movie Clerks)
In addition, most of the counterfitting going on is happening in foreign countries. In many places around the world, people are happy to accept dollars, but try passing a 30 year old Benjamin on them - they won't take it. They know that our currency is constantly counterfitted. Here in the U.S. it's cheaper to let the old bills wear out and get out of circulation that it would be to recall them all and print replacement bills.
The reason they're saying this is because conspiracy minded kooks think that the Federal reserve is the next Anti-Christ and is trying to plunge the world into depression so they can take over the world..blah..blah...blah.
I've heard from several net.kooks in the last year that the fed was going to issue this currency at a 2:1 value of our current currency, so they could (you guessed it) take over the U.S.
It's the cities of Raleigh, Durham and Chapel Hill, and the Research Triangle Park, which is the home of RedHat

If I go to www.msn.com with Opera, I get the error.
If I get the url of another page on MSN and put it in opera, it works just fine. The page layout is the same between both pages, so saying that it's due to the way other browsers render is total nonsense.
I had a user call me today, said he hated the way MSN looks now and wanted me to change it back.
I told his that Microsoft is trying to alienate as much people as possible.
Here's a tip to get good tech support: Lie your freaking head off.
Don't get all technical on tech support people, it's not worth the effort. If something isn't working right, tell them it ain't working at all. If they tell you do do something to get them off the phone, say you already did.
It's been working well for me for over a decade - I rarely have to deal with all their crap.
In my current position, I negotiated education re-inbursement as a part of my overall compensation package. I currently get re-imbursed 75% for all my educational expenses - this includes books and software, as well as the cost of the course itself. If it's a class where I recieve a grade, anything over a 'C' is acceptable.
I attribute this to the small size and management philosophy of the particular company I work for. In my previous job, similar to the one I'm doing now, I got laughed at when I asked to be trained. I later found out that the owner felt that if he paid for training, the people would just leave for a better job, and he didn't want the hassle of making people sign a contract saying they'll work x months after the training to keep their reimbursement.
About a year ago they recalled batteries on the 3000, 3500 and 3700 model laptops for the same reason. Of the ~300 or so laptops I admin'ed at the time, none of them caught fire. (unfortunately)
One of the nice things about NAT was that users can't make their computers publiclly accessable. Now for every LAN that has a poorly build firewall configuration, anyone can create a mail relay for spamming, web server for p0rn, quake server...

Spirit was obviously the alpha rover, since it survived and Beagle 2 did not. How appropriate!

For shame!

Geez - don't be such a cheapskate - use a CDN five, it's so close to $1 USD it doesn't much matter.
Ignorance abounds... What you don't realize is that 70% of U.S. currency is held outside the U.S.

The stuff from Crayola is a bit expensive. I ordered two pounds of Crazy Aaron's Thinking Putty and absolutely love it.
On one hand, they do tons of work on GPL'ed software, now here they are against GPL code.
What gives??
You can find the archived pages for SCO's Ancient Unix Source Code here.
The open relays that are most commonly abused are overseas. Hong Kong, South Korea, China, India.
What's the FTC going to do to them, lock them up in Guantamino bay??
