You know, I am no fan of W. I voted for him the first time, but voted for Bendarak(sp) the last time.
However, statements like "current administration in general needs to stop wiping their ass with the Constitution!" just make me smile. I smile to keep from cussing.
Clinton did more to "wipe his ass" with the Constitution than W could get away with in his wildest dreams! He issued more "Executive Orders" than any other president, or about any GROUP of presidents (take a look at the "War and Emergency Powers Act" sometime). He told his AG to "find a way around the 4th Amendment".
Clinton was just more slick about it. They don't call him "Slick Willy" for nothing!
There is not a damn bit of difference between Republican and Democrat anymore. Just different sides of the same coin.
Vote Libertarian! If nothing else, at least it's different.
This reminds me, I need to get back on my "tricorder" project. Since I recently found a complete, pen sized geiger counter for $20 that I can build into it, the tricorder looks more likely.
Let's see: microcontroller with built-in DSP, EMF sensor, geiger counter, dangerous gas sensors, enviromental sensors, RF sensor. Am I missing anything?
Hell, my first laptop (more of a "luggable", really) cost $5. I bought it at a hamfest. It was a box of parts taken apart. I took it home, put it back together and it booted up. All that was wrong was one of the floppy drives was dead. I later sold it for $50.

Add to that the fact that CD sales are dropping by, what, 20% a year and the entire industry may be dead in a few.
Good riddance to bad rubbish. Now, how about we see to the MPAA...

The technology looks beyond simple to break.
They are looking for particular video codecs. What if you say, compress the file? Or change the codec?
Since the firmware in these boxes can probably be updated, we may see a new "arms race" here.

Matt Damon? Playing Ma-wah?
OK, I can see that. At least they didn't pick that turd Affleck.
Hey, if they triple the number of implanted, they will be spot on!
Duct tape even fixes stupid people.
Well, if you cover their mouth AND nose, it does.
There won't be a trial. Charges will be dropped at the first hearing.
The first response to anything like this is to arrest everyone. Just because they were arrested doesn't mean there will be a case.
The most I see happening is some fines. The city and state are trying to milk Turner for a half mil right now.
SCREW THE DICKHEADS!!!
No wait, that didn't come out right...
Actually, most modern pistol rounds are supersonic. The .45ACP is one of the few exceptions.
The fact that most pistol rounds break the sound barrier is the reason you have to use subsonic rounds with a suppressor, if you want it REALLY quiet.
Yeah, and they spent two years kicking Jack's ass over it, too.
Frankly, I don't see what't so funny.
Dude! Shut the hell up!
She's about to show us here tits!
Oh, YEAH. The BEST!
My poor cable modem stays saturated because of that site!
Though, if you want to hit-and-run leech, piss off. If you dan't maintain a good ratio, you will be banned.
Note, I said "at least try".
We have a PS2 in the house. Not much else, though.
However, they have heard and fear the keywords "Virus" and "Hacker".
Tell them: "The Sony CD's let viruses and hackers into your computer".
THAT will get their attention!
People just have too short an attention span today. I remember when a company does evil and at least try not to deal with them anymore.
I won't bore you with my Sony stories, you have probably heard them before.
Boy, I was watching "War of the Worlds" on HBO and them thar thetans had LAZER GUNS!
They made folks go POOF! I ran right down to the Scientology Center for a cleaning.
Don't want none of them damn thetans!
I think that was on purpose...
Well, now I think it's more like:
"Do No Evil (unless, of course, it is PROFITABLE evil)"
Frankly, I hope he does try to sue Google. Then, Google bans ANY listing for his stoopid site.
Also, Google has more money than God...
SAND? In Egypt? Oh, bullshit!
You kids today with your sprirographs and your silly theories...
The RIAA needs to sue the Mafia and the Mafia will send in the hit men.
No way. Professional courtesy and all that.
A "Khaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan" joke might have worked, but that's done to death. A borg joke, maybe?
And you didn't notice (or at least, mention) the BB reference!
Besides, ST is SERIOUS. You don't joke about that!
Star Wars, though...two words, "Jar Jar".
