When I visit my parents, I drive about 1000 miles and I only stop to get fuel and to use the toilet. With my current vehicle that's every 350-380 miles. The 200 mile range of the x-prize car is too short IMHO. They should try to make it 400-500 miles.
And maybe change the size of the udders on the females, so that they don't get in the way of running, perhaps cutting them back so they are only big enough to hold the milk for their babies, instead of also excess production for humans.
They already exist and are broadly categorized as beef cattle. You're thinking of dairy cattle. Do an image search and compare Angus, Herford, Charolais, Limousin, etc cattle to Holstien, Guernsey, & Jersey. This will give you a start

FWIW, you can buy several different types of non-lead projectiles for rifles & pistols. Barnes has been making them for a few years and I've heard that they are quite good.
Same effects due to radiation or due to it's other physical properties? Ingestion of heavy metals is a known health risk. That's why lead has been banned from a variety of common items.
but many sites often require you to have the latest & greatest version of flash to watch their little movies when previous versions would otherwise work just fine. This can pose a problem for some users when Adobe doesn't bring out new versions of flash for all platforms at the same time. Another thing I don't like about flash is that when you have multiple web pages open in multiple tabs, the stupid flash ads on each page are still running even though they aren't being viewed. I'm not sure if there is a Firefox extension or plugin to disable this feature or not. All the flash animations running at the same time really suck up a lot of cpu processing. At times, this can make the browser and everything else unusable.
Anyway, keep your head down and come back safe, oodaloop. With luck, after next January, you may be able to come home for good.
I wouldn't count on that. Both of the major candidates on the Dem side are still leaving themselves lots of wiggle room on the issue and will probably continue to have US troops stationed in Iraq for years. McCain has said he won't surrender, so it's a given that no matter who wins, the troops aren't going anywhere soon.
Got a reference for the Tet victory? Everything that I've read indicated that it was only a PR victory for the Viet Cong and a loss for them by most military standards. The US & its allies never really controlled the countryside in a traditional sense before or after Tet because it would take more manpower than was politically acceptable.
No kidding. Some guys at college ate that stuff and it would stink up the entire floor. Anyone that gets on the ISS in the next year or so will be muttering "F@#$#%@#$ Koreans" due to the stench.
Geek squad didn't move there because of the broadband internet. It was to be closer to the Knob Creek gun range so they could get decent seats for the machine gun shoots.:)
But what they don't realize is that shit country has made that "poor girl" into a harsh con artist looking to exploit YOU (and no doubt rightly secretly resentful that you're trying to exploit *her* unfortunate situation). It's the kind of thing that leads to guys like Hans Reiser either getting taken for their money
In other words, the guy forgets that these foreign 'poor girls' are just like the women from their own country. It's just a change in accent and possibly clothing styles.
That depends on whether the services doesn't something stupid such as offering 'lifetime access' for the cost of 4-5 months of their normal service. The only real difference between many of the sites are the user interfaces. They pretty much all try to restrict people to communicating within their little walled gardens and pretty much have the same set of losers trying to find someone (or see how many people they can ignore in the egomaniacs' case). People move from one site to another to see if their luck is any better and when their full access time is up, they move on to the next site. Like many things, it's not a problem with the site as much as it is a problem between the chair and the keyboard.
IMHO, a better way to judge different the different sites is by how much of a pain in the ass their UI is to use while you're wasting time and if they do any stupid shit like sending free introduction messages to other people w/o your knowledge. Another annoyance is sending PFO letters to senders of email when you delete the email from the inbox. Of course, the service tries to spin this as their way of trying to 'help' you. How helpful is it to make a person think that someone else is interested in them when they're not or getting emails that confirm 'you are not worthy of a response - GAFO'?

How do mules compare to horses in durability?
Was there a one-eyed fat man among them with a Winchester in each hand?

Thank you very much!

Are truck stops all that difficult to find in the Chicago area?

They want a bigger 'kickback'.

Ron Paul has said that he won't run as an independent, so maybe Nader thinks he can get the Paul supporters to vote for him.
yet another reason to hate those two states.
it was a joke, you moron.
You're forgetting about the radioactive materials that are released into the environment by coal fired power plants.
Most of the cars available today are heavier than the ones available in the late 80s/early 90s. Side impact beams, airbags, etc.
So why did they stop selling the TDI's that were available in the US prior to the ultra low sulfur standards?

but with the same set of people that didn't want to have anything to do with you on the other sites. yay!
Um, isn't that what the 'adult friend' match making sites are for?
