Don't feel too bad, I just found my old tautaun figure (complete with a tummy flap) in my parent's garage. So I took it and put in on one of my wife's bookshelves, staring at her computer seat. She wasn't pleased when she finally noticed it.
And everyone knows that a lightsaber is just a manifestation of the Schwartz!
To be fair, I think what he meant was "one successful suit." Of course, then there is question of the punishment, which may be anywhere from $1 to $Whatever. I'll be back in about 5 years, as you said, to see what's up with this (which most likely will be 'not much').
Well, first, I see and hear a whole variety of people calling BS on nearly everything the government releases. From FoxNews to MSNBC to the Wall Street Journal to/. to New York Times- everyone is skeptical of everything the gov says. Now many people with a die-hard allegiance to whatever view they have will eat up whatever shiite you shovel them.
And 2nd, what is a better country than the US, and what is your criteria? Keep in mind with such an overarching statement you cannot pick just one criteria (say, no universal health car, or wars in the middle east). I think the US is great, but if you can put up a good argument for somebody else, I will listen.
I have to agree with Otto. There are some things that I would like to stream but are not available except on disc. But I can always find -something- that is similar that is streamed. Netflix even puts up streaming suggestions when you search for something that ends up being non-streamed. But it really all depends on what type of content you are looking for. Guess I'm lucky that I like a wide variety of material.
Very nice! I got a laugh out of the bird wrestling with the leaf/twig, and the frog at the end was suitably freaky. A nice blend of real-time and time-lapse work. And good choice of music. I look forward to seeing more of your work. Good luck!
The question here is- was he talking about GDP growth or job growth. I think he meant the latter. I could give a flying fig about the GDP is I had a job. Oh, wait, I don't.
Reference is to the movie '30 Days of Night.' On the serious side, I've only seen one eclipse so far, so it I can imagine it must have been neat to see that. Especially at night, which just makes it cooler (weirder?). The pictures linked are great; I wonder if anyone got video of the event. Kind of neat when you get to see something that only happens one is a great while, a la Halley's Comet (I may get to see it again).
Religion has been a controversial, deadly, and dividing issue throughout history. In the western world, we had the Lutheran split from the Catholic church. Later on in the US the KKK was once based on religion more than racism. There are still anti-Jewish sentiments abounding, i.e. "The Jews planned 9/11." And of course we still have the wacky religious nuts, such as the Westboro picketing nuts and that guy who predicted the 'Rapture.'
The thing is, Christianity hasn't really gone all genocidal (religious-cidal?) since the Crusades? Please correct me if I'm wrong. But as several posters have stated, a lot of the conflict in the middle east in based on Sunni vs Shi'ite beliefs. These differences is one of the things I have on my list to read about, but haven't yet. Is it something like Protestant vs Catholic beliefs; mostly the same but with some small differences?
Basically, my main point is- grow the hell up and just let everyone have their own damn beliefs. And don't base your government on religion. I know, I know, don't place my beliefs on other cultures. But have we ever seen religious rule ever work out in the history of humans?
Somehow I missed this facet of the conflict/uprising (the kids). That's just some level of sick I can't comprehend. I don't have kids, but I have a niece and nephew, and... it makes me literally feel sick.

What do you call a piece of wood with a burning rag at the end of it? I honestly don't know.
In that galaxy they have a very thick vacuum.

Wonder if we could manage to finagle him to use the title "Douchebag" without irony?

Monday- Took a walk
Tuesday- Took a nap in the sunshine
Wednesday- Licked my nether regions
Thursday- Another nap
Friday- Snausages!
Finding any decent single player content anymore is like trying to throw kittens in the bathtub.
That is the most bizarre analogy I've heard in about a week. Kudos.

So, you don't like Sony?
'Nuff said.
"That's retarded. One of the first things you do is ensure your units are consistent."
Yeah, that worked out real well for that Mars probe.
Half of China probably doesn't believe it's own propaganda.

I wonder how many people caught/will catch the joke?
Disco?
Now where's my warp drive?
Meh, I've seen worse. My overall opinion was 'boredom.' The Bill Cosby insert gave me a chuckle, though.

"Illegal immigrants don't vote."
Where have you been for the past decade, sparky?
Well, the pictures are new. And since I didn't know about it beforehand, it was news to me.

Damn it, you beat me to it! Well played!
