you should consider this fact: one out of every 20 americans bought a new car last year. What does that tell you? americans like buying shiny new cars. and what could be shinier and newer than the iCar? Probably nothing. The iCar will get really high MPGs and lots of KWs. I htink it's going to be electrified. Maybe when they are done they can drive it from San Francisco to New York City on a publicity tour. My first impression is that they are working on it in secret and calling it Project Titan. How cool would it be if that were the offician name when its done? they hired away so many engineers that other companies are folding. Mission Motors. Gone. Like dusty wind. You know, when I look at a map, sometimes I think, how do I get there? and somethims I think, how could I avoid there? like a map of mordor. big pile of nope. mordor is one place you won't be able to get an icar. it would get dirty from all the sulphur in the air. I wonder if the cars will be made in america, like donald trump wants. are you voting for him? i am.
thank you for supporting me. to be fair, affect/effect gets really complicated really quickly. Both words can be used as nouns and verbs, and rules are all over the place. I still struggle with that one.
I'm just lonely. I wouldn't mind somebody to talk to when I get home, and a warm thing to sleep with at night.Cats are so affectionate. I would feed it and groom it and keep the litterbox clean. I'm not sure the name. I was originally thinking Neko, but now Mycroft is appealing to me. There's also Kitty McCatface. Thoughts?
I just don't know why people have to be so mean, you know? I would be satisfied to look in the contract. it's either in the contract or it's not in the contract. That would make me feel good. I don't want to have to fight it. I like my landlord. He's put in an uncomfortable position, because he's going back and forth between me and the owners. I need him on my side in general, you know? if I pushed really hard to fight and win this specific thing, I would probably lose in general overall, due to the bad will all around. thank you for looking up the humane society link.
I'm taking a dale carnegie course and they talk a lot about managing conflict and influencing people. I'm trying to apply these principles. Have you ever taken a course like this?
Can I open up with you? I'm having problems with my landlord and it's really affecting my mood today. Ir eally want a kitty. But he says the owners don't want me to have a kitty. I'm pretty sure that it's in my lease that I can have a kitty, but he doesn't hav a copy and I don't have a copy. He's contacting the owners to try to pull a copy from their records. But it weights on me, you know?

yeah, i agree I don't always capitalize. i don't really sweat that. sometimes my thought is too urgent to use the shift key. and in one of those links i used farther when i shoudl have used further. but other than that, I think I'm better than most, unless I'm trolling with intentional errors. a lot better.
I'm not a stickler on spelling, because I know that people type out fast, sometimes there's autocorrect issues. But I cannot bear grammar mistakes. their/they're, less/fewer, (he or she)/they, composed/comprised. I will always be "that guy".
true, but the version four cycles ago (snow leopard?) was $30, then all subsequent versions have been free. I think the main reason that windows shizz is used in the office is because all the employees already know how to use it. Make it free for home users, everybody gets trained on it at home, then clean up on the business users. fight against goog docs / chrome / open office.
the safest place to be on the road is when all the cars in front of you are going a little bit faster, so as time goes on they keep getting further and farther away. it's like the opposite of crashing into something.
why would they keep popping up upgrade messages on computers that can't run the software? you think they woudl do a systems check to figure that out first? it would totally bork somebody's system for a completely preventable reason.
maybe the guy in charge of the upgrade messages gets his bonus on how many updates there are, regardless of if they go well or poorly.
why would you want to buy a carppy procuct? if someobyd donna givee me a product I would want it to be nice, and if they want me to pay for the proeduct whell then thit better do that thing that i like when things do.

Disagree. At the very least, I would not want to drive behind you. When I drive, I leave enough buffer around me to accommodate irrational people, such as the road rage assholes and the petextrians.
of course not. just sayin, metal detectors and bag inspections are a good way to filter out large metal objects like guns. if you have an open carry policy, it makes that very effective tool useless.
Slashdot Mirror
a lot of people pay for AV software and even AV subscriptions, so that's quantifying how much those services are worth.
No, they'll never open up the api to the car interface.

you're new to the thread; you should know that the P has been hectoring my insights for some time now. I'm beginning to think it's personal.

after july, you can't download a free copy? or after july, all the free copies expire and need to be paid for?

I have windows 7!
was win 10 a free upgrade from 8? I think it should be free, at least for home / student use.
is windows 10 free? all of the apple OS updates are free. both the minor revisions and the major new versions.

Well to me, high tick is natural sounding, and all the other mfrs have better products.
