Maybe in the next presidential elections concerning a power hungry, i-must-crush-my-opponent-candidate, there will be a wireless-tapping scandal that takes place in the parking lot of the Watergate hotel instead of the actual room.
Obviously, that sets up Forrest Gump II where the Forrest character spots a couple of geeks trying to jump start their van because their surveillance equpiment drained the battery.
On a whim, I ditched my Gillette Mach 3 razor (those fucking replacement blades are expensive!) for a lightsaber about 2 years ago. I figured, hey, with the money I'm saving on blades, and the many tasks the multi-purpose lightsaber can perfom, how can I lose? Well, let's just say this. If you thought shaving with a dull razor gave you mean razor burn, shaving with a really, long fucking hot glow stick gives you far worse.
Needless to say, I am back to using my Mach 3. Skin grafts cost far more than replacement razors. Trust me.
That was back when NASA risked lives for real science. Unlike now, when astronauts are killed performing elementary school science experiments. Let NASA send them to Mars or set up a colony on the Moon. At least then, when there's an accident and good men/women die, NASA can tell the surviving family that they sacrificed for something permanent, not for Little Johnny's tomato plant experiment.
I'm a big fan of Leo and watched the screensavers even before Patrick joined--when they had that girl (sure I know her name, but ugh, why mention it.) It was a really great/entertaining show that you could catch replays of during the day and not ruin your habitual, primetime TV schedule.
Sure, Leo didn't know everything and would sometimes say shit that wasn't right, but he had a TV personality. He was educated and talented in television entertainment. I miss him.
I have no idea what the tv executives were thinking after the two consecutive buy outs or whatever the hell you call them, but Leo showed up less and less with each one until he was no more. Though I never watched the show much in the past 5 years, I remember when it was good, and I did watch it with Patrick and Leo riding in the convertibles, and I do remember that I liked it.
To the now owners of G4TechTvCnetZDtvblah, I never change the channel to your network. You guys can go to hell and take shows like w1nn3r and 3l1te with you.
Really, if you can make something that will survive falling from space, shouldn't you just build that around the astronauts so that they can survive too? Hell, I'd like my car built like one as well.
From my understanding, watching interviews and the special features on the _Minority Report_ DVD, Spielberg and Co really sat down with a group of pretty smart individuals to realistically futurize a not to distant world.
I really found that the images/technology the filmmakers collaborated on and, ultimately, created seems feasible, eventual, and very futuristic--granted, it's one of my favorite movies from the past 5 years.
I hope if they do try such a neat thing as land a damaged Shuttle under remote control that they do it over your house instead of mine. I like my roof and all my stuff inside.
Yeah, I saw that episode of Mythbusters. Why should someone be sued or fired? People touch those cattle, electric fences accidentally everyday. Shit, I've been shocked by one, and I wasn't looking to sue my grandfather. Sure it hurts, but it just scares the shit out of you more than anything.
I was lucky enough to be a member of the Google Gulp Alpha Testing Team, and I can say that it made my penis larger by 10%. I was also irresistable to the female species (including small, female dogs and Homosexual Pelicans), and I had a bald friend who tried some and grew hair so thick that he looked like Josef Stalin. Things may have changed since going to Beta, however, so use at your own risk.
Screw the Taxi tracker. I'm looking forward to a Google Gulp, found here. My favorite bit:
From forest to freezer: A Google Gulp history
It is estimated that nearly half of Planet Earth's plant and animal species live in tropical rain forests, the vast majority of them undiscovered by humans and therefore not yet subjected to commercial exploitation. For Google, this cornucopia of undigitized data represented an irresistible acquisition target. So, for the past two years, as his 20% project, VP of operations Urs Hoelzle has spent one day a week collecting flora samples in several Bolivian sub-equatorial rain forests. For the most part, the compounds he returned with were nothing special - the usual grab-bag of future steroids, muscle relaxants, skin care appliqués and long-shot cancer drugs.
I bet Google Gulps are good with vodka. Shit, anything is good with vodka.
If his main point is to retire to promote his politics and ensure a head of state does not get re-elected (as the linked, BBC news blurb suggests), shouldn't he realize, just by looking at last year's U.S. elections, that a dissenting, political group spearheaded by a celebrity is a big fucking waste of time.
I mean, this dude only played chess. He never did stand up comedy or married Susan Sarandon. Come on Gary, at least make a documentary where Putin plays Chess instead of going after terrorists.
Basically, yes. Why care about a guy masturbating in North Korea--a country that provides nothing to the world besides weapons? Saddam was evil; he had oil. The western world took it. France and Russia just took it in between wars. (All the motorists will benefit from a capitalist Iraq. Blame W. all you want but all the rich people are grinning.)
But why care about a guy detonating nuclear weapons in some poor ass country? If CSI has taught me anything, and I like to think that it has, it is because masturbating outside of some one's window will escalate to murder.
The UN needs to shut this shit down. For some reason, they have not. The Korean War was a nasty thing, but that was during a different time. China/USSR will no longer help N. Korea.
So why hasn't the world reacted? Is it because there are no longer Cold War excuses to engage nations like N. Korea? Or is it because they do not consider a jackass in N. Korea detonating nukes a problem? I bet if he was an Arab, Mohammad, Quran-reading, brown guy in the desert, the world would listen? Welcome to the new cold war. Except this war has the same benefits: oil/energy=rich people get more money.
If you sold your car the day before and market dictated that the price would be $880, the insurance company is not going to pay you $1500.
Okay, I did not sell my car the day before, I drove it and enjoyed driving it. If I would have sold my car as you suggested, and then told my friends that I made a cool $800 by selling it (the car isnt even paid for), they would beat my ass by laughing at me until my ass got beaten.
I did not scam the insurance company by buying a car and 'wrecking it' to get more money. I paid insurance for 6 years. I drove the hell out of the car and liked it. So if you want to count premiums and shit, you first better not assume that I'm ripping off the insurance company or that I am expecting *extra* money for driving an insured car! All I want is my car fixed. I didn't ask for a Mercedes. If I've paid insurance and someone fucking hit me, I deserve to have my fucking car fixed at the least.
I don't give a shit if an insurance company actually has to pay something. (You insurance guys blame it on people ripping people off and we all have to pay higher premiums. Well, I ask you, higher premiums for what? So that we can pay more and get the same shitty deal? Someone hits you... tough luck, you drove a shitty car. Here's $800. Try buying a car exactly like it for that much money. Oh, and if you get a new car, here's my card; we'll insure you.)
How will this idiot box help me get my poor little zoom zoom car back or keep others like me from losing their little car in the future?
I had a 1996 Mazda Protege with under 80k miles. I drove that car for a six years until someone recently ran a stop sign and slammed into me. I had a great driving record. The insurance company investigated, determined it wasn't my fault (which is what the police report stated), totalled the car, and then wrote me a check for $880. Granted, the car wasn't that great; I'm sure there were a few petrified Wendy's french fries scattered on the floor board and some dumb Renaissance Art book from a boring ass class that was completely impossible to stay awake in lay in the back seat. However as boring as that class was, the value of the car to me was worth way more than $800.
Now I have no car, and I ride the bus like Rosa Parks and bum rides from my friends. So my question is, will this stupid ass black box fix it so that when idiots run into you and wreck your car, you get your car repaired or another car in return? Oh, I doubt it will: insurance companies are only about saving money for them or if you're lucky, helping you out if it costs them less than what you or the shit you own is worth.
I know if they have one of those boxes in the back of my car, I'll put a post-it on it that says: Fuck you and fuck this box.
Give Joe Sixpack the ability to harvest sub-etha superbosons and create a kg of antimatter, and that's all she wrote.
That's all who wrote? Do you know her name? If so, let's find out where she lives and kill her and her writings. Then she never wrote it; it never happened; we all lived; and you're the idiot that believed in her. March with me now.
Look at the flashlight from the viewpoint that it is a weapon. It shines light and lets you see shit. That's its purpose. This marine travelled to Mars, not expecting a hell intrusion. Instead he gets one, has few weapons, picks up a flashlight and some other weapons and starts kicking ass. Awesome.
Okay, it's the future. Dudes in the future should have high tech badass gear. I mean, nightvision, we have, but in the future, shit, man, there should be some crazy shit that looks through walls and sees DEMONS. And, it sees them in the dark! Damn, in the future, they might even have dogs that wear electric turbons that allow them to focus energy that allows them to make peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. WOW.
This is a game. He went in without a weapon. Apparently, which is plainly obvious, there are idiots that work on Mars and do stupid shit. They're conjuring Hell and demons and crazy ass spiders. It's clear they care little for their own safety; and, therefore, they have not duct taped flashlights on their machineguns.
I'll continue playing without a pussy flashlight taped on. I'm in hell, and I'm kicking demon ass. F a flashlight, and F this mod.
Yeah, that $300 could be used to get new basketball players! Shit, thats like the price of two jerseys. You know, every rapper wants a Duke jersey. Let's just up the price some. Profit!
