Please God, let it be Jar Jar. Three hours of "Faces of Death"-like gore footage of Jar Jar getting digested by that big sand worm would get *MY* ten bucks.
One way for Lucas to win us all over is to kill Jar Jar in a satisfying way. That would be _any_ way.
Actually, that service is free. Just click on the "Submit Victim", I mean, "Submit Story" link on the sidebar. Make up a clever story and your faithful/.'ers will take care of the rest.
I thought it'd be kind of cool to have a "sponsored target" list at the top of the home page.
IMHO this is the most embarrassing, disheartening, and bone-headed developments in the game industry over the past year: "one of the participants went to his car, got a gun, and pointed it at the head of a staff member"
I could be an optimist and say 'it's amazing that it hadn't happened before' or 'I'm amazed this doesn't happen more often', but I'm a pessimist, so I really can't.
So really, if you want to use Smoothwall, better read hard or get a thicker skin somewhere. Perhaps that's good advice for the rest of us anyway.
But Morell was in a league of his own. Most rude types are simply rude. Morell was the strutting peacock of rudeness amongst a rabble of sparrows and starlings.
the reason you want to put up a trade barrier with china is because they compete on price by breaking the international rules: child labour, forced labour, unsafe working conditions, bad envirionmental track record. you name it. if "free trade" is going to work (a long shot) then there have to be baseline standards about what constitutes fair manufacturing practices - otherwise the "winner" in the global economy is the country most willing to exploit its citizens, fuck its environment and provide substandard or unsafre products.
So if free Americans want to make deals with Chinese businesses, explain to me why they shouldn't be allowed to. You are absolutely free not to. Is it so you can use the US Goverment for your Most Holy Moral Crusade[tm], so you can feel like The Righteous American Crusader? What your really talking about is managed trade, not free trade.
personally I'm hard-pressed to figure out how this is going to change without some serious regulatory hammer falling.
State intervention isn't the solution, it'll make the problem worse. Or, if you're a State interventionist, better, because later on, you'll need even more State intervention.
I suppose what my point is is that her words carry weight
I knew what you meant, occasionally I change my sig to "IANAL, but I play one on/." Even to see the the string "IAAL" in any form, in any context, on/. is jolting.

I went in the next time and not so calmly explained to her that she will not do that again without a) telling me what she is going to later charge, b) lying about what she was really doing, and c) being a cheat.
My wife used to work for a software company whose product audited claims submitted by doctors. The software was free (to insurance companies, state agencies like Medicare), but they had to pay a percentage of the money saved to the software company. How was money saved? Doctors routinely double-submitted claims, claims for things they hadn't really done, and on and on.
Someone who can come out and say "IAAL, and based on my research this person is in the wrong" is an awfully big deal.
That wouldn't be P J. She says on her site, "IANAL. I am a paralegal, so if you have a legal problem and want advice, this isn't the place. Hire an attorney instead. Research is, however, what paras do, so here I am sharing things I have found in my research."
His take is that we are required to remember a lot of hard-to-remember passwords. Which we can't really do well. So the best compromise is, instead of just picking easy passwords, to write the passwords down, and protect the paper fanatically.
Reading slashdot makes us all SCO gurus; how stupid of bank employees to miss out on /.!
If they are doing just another stupid thing in a string of stupid things, they'll just keep right on profiting.
But we know that Senator Lieberman is Palpatine. Right here is the documentation.

You lost all credibility right there, bud.
Everything in EP3 ends up the way things are when EP4 begins.
You just have to go listen somewhere else. These things _are_ being talked about.

It does if they're the ones with all the guns and prisons (that is, the State).

I looked at Smoothwall a while ago. I picked OpenBSD. Who needs to get harangued by Morell? Theo de Raadt is simply a saint by comparison.

And then Red Hat outflanks SCO and plunders and pillages them.
Well, for all you know it was only three people (so far).
Don't forget the full frontal lobotomy. I wonder, do they do those in outpatient clinics?
He's a politician. It's both, and more.

Everytime I am in Cincinnati I wonder, how does a bank get a name like _that_?
You don't happen to spike trees in lumber areas, do you?

This software company was doing pretty well.

The 9th and 10th Amendments are long gone dead. The states have prostrated themselves to the Lincolnian SuperState.
