Mod the parent up. So many people and companies say they want smarts but what they really want is a narrowly defined skill set.
To Mr. Gates: there are plenty of smart people out there. They may not have the exact skill set you're looking for so spend some of that cash M$ is hoarding and train them.
The founding fathers did not need a 2nd amendment to overthrow the British because they were rebelling, an inherently illegal act. Hey, what do you know? The 2nd amendment wasn't even around until after the American Revolution ended. Imagine that!
It's not there so people can protect their property from criminals. It's not there so we can all hunt with them. It's there so the citizens can protect themselves from their own oppressive government. Thats the last resort of our system of checks and balances.
What color is the sky in your world? Are you seriously suggesting that armed rebellion against the government is a right guaranteed by the constitution? Think about it before you answer. "Oh, you want to forcibly overthrow the government? Well, it's allowed in the constitution so I guess we can't do anything to stop you." Yes, that must be what the founding fathers had in mind.
Because in this country we actually have parents so stupid that they can't differentiate betweeen the letters "G", "PG", and "R". Apparently these stupid parents plop their children in front of a PG-rated movie and are shocked to find out that it is not completely suitable for their children. Having not enough sense to exercise their parental guidance in the first place, they now look to someone else to provide the guidance they couldn't. Since the right feels that the government should legislate morality, the government is the logical choice for them.
So true. One off the things that tickled me about EZT was the notion of "liberating" boots. People would take boots that were being sold and "liberate" them by posting them on free EZT. Now that EZT is gone, I hope the record companies will be happier that the for-profit bootleggers are back in business.
Two more days and that Van Halen Us Festival DVD download would have finished! Oh well, I'll have to be happy with what the shows I was able to download (which was substantial).
I use Blosxom on mine. I was getting comment spam so I tweaked things so that comments that contain "http:" don't get posted. I don't get comment spam anymore.
Tarantino is back with a great cast of characters (Bruce Willis and Michael Madsen, to name just two) and I haven't liked anything he's done in a while (Jackie Brown, Kill Bills) so I hope he's back to his old self.
They're also big on customer service. I order from them a lot for my music site and my experience is that their customer service is great. If you're still getting emails from them, email them and let them know.
In a perfect world, yes. However, many people like to incrementally bid up items. They'll keep bidding until they're ahead. Dumb, yes, but it happens. To take advantage of them you can snipe them. Since they haven't put in their max, just the highest bid, you can snipe them to get the item for less than their max. Most times I don't bother but I sniped a very nice Fender Stratocaster this way.
...is because it can. It's the dominant OS in the world and despite sucking people still buy it. Why shouldn't it suck?
Why is Mac OS X the best desktop OS in the world? Because it has to be. Apple has such a small market share that it has to have something to really stand apart from Windows. If Macs were still on MacOS 9, Apple would be dead by now. To survive, Apple needed OS X.

You can hardly make this into a vast right-wing conspiracy by mentioning Bush when practically everyone in Hollywood is a Bush-hating left-winger.
You clearly haven't worked in the entertainment business before. Remember that for every Barbra Streisand on a movie set, there are hundreds of crew members and they tend to reflect America, the left, right, and middle.

Perhaps you should read slowly next time...

Is the fog lifting yet?
The point is, armed rebellion isn't constitutional. It's rebellion, fer cryin' out loud! Think!

Any artist that didn't want their stuff on EZT could ask that their stuff be banned and they were. Sigh.
The thing is, EZTree didn't allow things that had ever been commercially released. If you reported any, they pretty quickly took the torrents down.

There shouldn't be any versions after Julie Newmar. Having achieved perfection with that release there wouldn't be a need for further upgrades.
What? No it doesn't. Just go in through "My DVR" to see the show from the beginning. You won't be interrupted at the end, either.
More like 7+ years.

Robert Rodriguez and Frank Miller are directing. Tarantino is, I believe, just directing one of the "episodes".

I don't know about the rest of the country, but right now in Dallas it's 45 degrees.
It's sunny and comfy here in Southern California :-P.

Yeah, yeah, yeah the Grammys are irrelevant...but you watched 'em anyway ;-).
. I work in a real estate office. Would I want to have Bugs Bunny as the boot logo on all the machines in our computer room?
If the machines are in your computer room, who is going to see the logo?
Here is another source for the history of electronic music.

$10, at least where I live (Southern California).
For no good reason, this now has enabled any guy to carry a shoulder bag while remaining "cool".
No, it hasn't. Somebody's been pulling your leg. Now take that thing off before someone notices.
