Jesus, I don't know who this guy his, but I reckon the only vote he'd ever win is chief boy scout or something. Look around you buddy, and you'll notice it's a doggy dog world out there, and dems as well as reps will stoop as low as necessary to win whatever they have their eyes set upon. Welcome to the real world...
Well, let's see. We can sit on our ass making cute pithy little statements about 'doggy dogs' (what the fuck?) and say "Welp, that's just how it is. Nothing we can do about it. That's life. Welcome to the real world."
Or we can get up, go out there, and, gee, I dunno, maybe actually try and make an effort? Try to wake people up?
This is WHY our world sucks. People just give up and accept corruption and stupidity as givens and 'part of the process'. They become apathetic. And like Stewart said, this plays right into their strategy. They don't want people to pay attention. They want people to just kinda shrug and accept shit.
This man is my hero. I heard a clip of it from the Randy Rhodes show on the way home last night, and this morning grabbed the torrent of the show (god, cut the commercials out of the video, man...).
He really did something respectable and the hosts, rather than actually discuss the opinion being given, felt they needed to make fun of him and dodge the issue since they couldn't provide a realistic response. It was like "ERR ERR DOES NOT COMPUTE RESPOND WITH JIBBERISH" and sparks came out of their neck. Just like XP.
I hate to be a buzzkill, but is there ANY realistic reason why sending people to Mars is good science?
Why climb a mountain when you can go around?
Babies will eventually try to walk instead of crawl.

I'm a rabid fan of DX1, and like most folks DX2 came as a huge disappointment. I agree with most of the criticism surrounding it. But I did enjoy the game, however, on it's own merits. Once I realized how much they fucked it up, I decided to just try and enjoy it on it's own merits and stop comparing. It's not too bad on it's own. Maybe they should have just not tried to make it a DX sequel.;)
Pu is totally worthless nowdays, the US has about 18 tons of excess Pu that it would like to get rid of, the Russians likewise.. We may have to build several billion dollar reactors just to burn up the excess Pu.
Like that quack scientist, Doc Brown, and his hooligan high school thug of his, Marty? Bah!
(Has anyone made a PuPu Platter joke yet? Am I late? Argh.)
Prohibited items: Guns, explosive materials, chemical or incendiary mechanisms, tear gas, smoke bombs, knives, narcotic or other illegal substances, fireworks, firecrackers, poles, bats and in general items that may cause physical damage, even if they are legally possessed.
Well there you go. And they spent like, what, a billion dollars on security? And for what? There was a rule against bringing in things terrorists would use all along. Sounds like conspiracy!
That's it? Where's the dual SLI-mode GeForce requirement? Where's the 2 gig of RAM? The quad of 5ghz Xenons. Xenonseses. es.... Xeni?
Well, that was underwhelming at least. And I love the gasps of horror at 300+ something megs of RAM required. I had 256 megs of RAM in my dev box here at work and it was PAINFUL to have more than one or two major programs at once going. Slapped a cheap 512k stick in this puppy and it's flying nicely.
C'mon guys, you're mostly gamers. You should have at least 512 megs in your gaming rig. I mean, there are instances where someones Gamer ID badge was taken away for lesser crimes than this. Nevermind what the Geek Council would say.
You mean other than getting more out of what you already have? And in this case, getting some great new features? Oh man, that's some CRAZY THINKIN' there, I know.
The latest patch for UT2004 removes the requirement of the 'Play Disc' being in the drive. I will love Epic for a long long long time for doing that so soon after the game was released.:)
(And I'm quite pleased that I actually bought the game for once -- when it came out, no less, not the bargain bin. These guys deserve every cent.)
You know, I was really violently opposed to the first pics I saw of Marvin, but today I finally got to check out the Quicktime video of the costume test, and you know...I dunno, I like it. The big head just kinda droops and looks so very pathetic and depressing. It just might work. You just have to see him moving to understand.:)

HAHAHA, I was hoping I wouldn't make that error.
:D
I officially swap my 'y' for an 'i'.

I must learn how to do this.
Would the high voltage needed to run an LCD backlight be a potential hazard in a bathroom ?
Only if you are a very very inaccurate pisser.

Holy crap I tried to read that and I swear my eyes went cross. :D

In related news...(from 2003), for those interested.
Jesus, I thought that said "Microsoft Unveils A Danger Mouse".
Oh, 'eck.
Not just trees, but ATOMIC DANCING TREES. Crazy shit, and obviously representing a superior filesystem. :D

It's great seeing the costume in action with a real actor inside. He looks so pathetic and sad. It'll work. You watch. ;)
Wow, what an amazing sack of presumptuous bullshit that was. [golf clap]
While you were out, Jack Valenti called from 1982. He said he wants his argument back.
He's also wants to hire you as his star witness against the VCR.
Go get 'em, Tiger!
That wasn't a typo.

Sorry, I really REALLY love Adblock.

Not unlike most TV shows. If they aren't an instant insane hit within an episode or two, they get canned. I hate this time period. :P

They damn well better keep the voice, however.
