Awww...I was just about to go buy a 1500 dollar leather bustier, that lifts and seperates. Sigh.
You think animal waste smells bad? We used to have a beef slaughterhouse in our community. When the beef are slaughtered, they have to bleed them out. They have to do something with this blood, and there is a lot of it. So, to make the blood safe to dump into the municipal wastewater system, they cook it down...boil it. That smell is WAY worse than waste from a pig farm and it wafted throughout the community. We are talking instant nausea. It got so bad that the community forced the closure of the slaughterhouse.
I didn't think they served food on flights anymore. They would have to give you plastic eating utensils which could be used as weapons to hijack the plane. Can't you just see some crazy trying to spork a flight attendant to death?
Ya, I remember getting up way before dawn and watching static for who knows how long. (Too young to tell time) Then I would have to sit through what seemed to be three hours worth of "Sunrise Semester" (maybe I absorbed some of it via osmosis or something-could explain my interest in early Greek philosophy) and eat about twelve bowls of Cocoa Puffs. Finally, Bugs Bunny for an hour! The ones with Marvin the Matian were the best! Remember the instant goons (just add water)?
I believe that was the "90125" tour. I saw this in Charlotte, and I don't believe there ever was an opening band on this tour. The cartoon was a WB cartoon with the old guy and that dancing frog that he puts into a cornerstone of a building only to be found in the distant future. Pretty cool, considering the chemicals I had imbibed before the show.
Also, talking about nostalgia for Saturday mornings, anyone remember "In the News"? Those were little news bites watered down for us kids at the time. (Long time ago)
My wife called me from her job because she needed some tech support for her computer at work. Funny thing is, her employer has their own IT department and Help desk and she knows that. I couldn't believe it. I love my wife and all that, but that was just plain stupid.
I don't know about you, but even though AOTC on IMAX was basically formatted "pan and scan", I enjoyed the hell out of it. To see a great action movie on a six story screen with a 12,000 watt sound system with a great picture, that is the way to see movies. Granted, they also cut 20 min. of the movie, but never the less, I enjoyed it. It was worth the sacrifice of 2.35:1 to pan and scan and 20 min. of footage. The sound quality alone was worth it. I would definately see more regular movies formatted to IMAX.

I would guess the director took creative license with the SC. Why? 'Cause it looked cool in the movie.
It is pretty much the ONLY thing on on SciFi during the next five (now four) nights. It looks like they air it consecutively two or three times a night.
After seeing the new iMac design, I wonder how such a machine will hold up in K-12 education settings. How sturdy is the neck that the flat screen is attached to? Is it removable? Will it tip over somewhat easily? They de-evolved back to a tray load CDROM, Why? They (on higher priced models) use non-integrated speakers; after all the hype of less wires. Slot loads were great! I know that Apple would probaby like to see iBooks throughout K-12, but non-portable workstations are sometimes more useful in a classroom setting. In the end, consumers will let Apple know what they don't like, and Apple will revise the iMac again.

What the government should have done is eliminate the 1 dollar bill. They would save millions if not billions in printing costs for the bill.
I believe the estimated lifespan of a printed bill is 3-5 years and a minted coin is 20+ years.
People would bitch, but in time they will adjust to the change.
Brilliant.
sp: weapons...my bad
Gotta love Dial a Yield. I believe most of our current nuclear weopons have that feature. I wonder if it goes to "11"?

It's too bad that the moderation point limit is 5. This is +10 Funny. Had to pick myself up off of the floor after reading it!
If I remember correctly, Goldfinger's voice is dubbed in, because Gert couldn't speak a word of English.
You're probably right. Voice recognition ala HAL 9000. Just have to be careful about what you say or you might hurt your computer's feelings. ;-)
Worldwide scalability. Logically, there's just one system, but it's partitioned into many pieces in many places.
Seamless distribution. The operating system decides where data resides and where computation occurs.
Fault tolerance. The system transparently handles failures and the removal of resources, without loss of data or functionality.
Self-configuration and self-tuning. New resources are automatically assimilated, and the system optimizes its own performance and resource use.
All developed by Microsoft of course. Resistance is futile.
