it will add 15 years to my life, and my wife is a whole lot more frugal than myself, and, at the tender age of 27, i actually have a nice positive net worth, with some nice investments.
but - i do agree - i've added up *everything* involved in this - including presents for us, travel, hotels, hall, yadda yadda...
and it is going to cost sum total (for everyone, including guests) over 100,000 - which is totally insane.

prove that "god" "said" this.
i'll accept *.wav's or *.mp3's or *.ogg's... 1st person evidence please.
there was talk of it back during the end of the tech boom - mostly by the CWA.
of course, IT workers didnt see a need for it, because they thought themselves unexpendible.
idiots all. everyone is expendible, and just a cog. for non-management type grunt positions like IT and DB Programming, a Union is the only way to make sure that you dont get fscked.
dude - you are seriously talking out of your ass...
the great depression was caused by - 1) simultaneous saturation of two huge new markets (radio and automobile), and the fallout from losing all the cottage inustries that supported the rise of these industries.
I know that you really want to blame this on FDR, but the facts just arent there. FDR inheritied n 18% unemployment rate - there was serious discussion of revolution before he got in, and yet he managed to save the Union.
yeh, i've understood the logic behind this guys statement too... i'm really curious as to how many companies are going to tell MS to shove it when they start squeezing.
a lot will, especially considerring this economic climate.
oh - He's coming you know... coming to check on your progress....

the problem is, Halo is the only decent game on the damn system.

what, you think that the Declaration of Independence isnt a primary source document?
and dont say "the bible" there are no original manuscripts and no true authors known.
i really meant "primary source" and not "first person"

employers want degrees. a lot of times you won't even get an interview without a degree, experience be damned.
a 4-year degree will open up doors that will remained closed to you if you dont have one.

no, i think that we should all post truthfully and accurately.
saying that the VP of OEM contracts has no weight is kindof like saying that good old Kenny-Boy Lay had no influence in this whitehouse.
it doesnt pass the smell test.
you dont understand.

but linux doesnt have a monopoly, so it doesnt matter.
but i'm not...

the great depression was caused by -
1) simultaneous saturation of two huge new markets (radio and automobile), and the fallout from losing all the cottage inustries that supported the rise of these industries.
2) massive stock market speculation (stock market bubble)
3) Bone-headed protectionist tariffs by Hoover.

i had an MS VP tell me point blank that they "permitted" piracy because eventually that person would buy an MS product and give the company money.

but that wasnt an argument!
