When they came for Howard Sterm, I didn't speak up because I was not a drunken lesbian dwarf . Then they came for Rush Limbaugh. I did not speak up, as I was not a dittohead.
Then they came for Sean Hannity. I did not speak up, because I was not hannitized.
Then they came for me, and by that time there was nothing on the radio but polka shows.
Yeah, I guess so. But it won't be a problem for long. I got 76 of these spams this morning, each promising to lengthen my member anywhere from an additional length of 3 inches to an additional length of 8 inches. If I calculate correctly, buying all of them will guarantee a length of more than 20'.
True. This was an era before Google though, she might just not have know of such a person.
Heh. How could anyone have possible ever done research before Google?:)
Perhaps Rand was inspired by one of the two John Galts when she made her character. I've not read "Atlas Shrugged" yet. I tried 2 or 3 times to read "Fountainhead", but there was something about her writing style that made me give up after 5-10 pages each time. I'll give that one another chance someday.

The leading building corporation would proclaim that there's nothing wrong with the buildings and a new market of woodpecker traps and anti woodpecker missiles would thrive.
I've already gotten spams about these products concerning software woodpeckers. In fact, I got one this morning that had a title "SOLVE YOUR SOFT PECKER PROBLEMS"

Never forget Weinberg's Law:
"If builders built buildings the way programmers wrote programs, then the first woodpecker that came along would destroy civilization"
An excruciatingly massive multi-subject dungeon. Get points from the Mods, avoid the Trolls, and battle such bosses as Cowboy Neal, Billy Borg, and the top Boss, the Cmdr himself.

AMD will have the last laugh here. Turns out they embedded a Pink Floyd album in the code of AMD64 (a fair-use copy, as AMD had previously purchased the album). When Intel copied the code and put it in their chip, it was all AMD needed for a little call to the RIAA to pay a visit to Intel's house....
But what happens when the cats over-eat, get fat and die?
Then you get dogs to eat the cats. If these become a problem, you get gorillas to eat the dogs. The gorillas won't be a problem, because, come winter, they will freeze to death.
I don't think the cats will be a problem, however. Garfield has been over-eating and very fat for 30 or so years now, and I still see his sarcastic face in the funny papers every morning.
No, no. Didn't you listen? You make a computer based reality to keep them miserable, not happy. Otherwise they won't believe it's real. In SOVIET RUSSIA, bad joke perpetuates YOU!
Shouldn't you have summarized this "In the Soviet Matrix, Games Play You?"
Sneak out and clamp 12 to 120 volt convertors on passing motorboats, with wires going back to your house. The wires had better be long
Stand on the shore with a big shotgun, and demand that passersby pay you a toll in killowatt hours in order to pass.
Provide all the catfish with treadmills connected to generators.
Per Max Screck of Batman 2, set up your own power plant and connect to the nearby hydro plants. Provide a lot of paperwork that no one reads, that includes the part that says that your power plant actually drains power from the grid instead of adding to it.
If all else fails, I'm sure that the orgone writings of Reich, the magic energy fields of Tesla, or the spoonbending force of Uri Gellar will give you an answer.
Why not provide something during the wait, like Solitair, or some sort of space invaders game (remembering that it took just a few K on the old Atari 2600...should be quick to load, or easy to embed in ROM).

I'd get one implanted, but it sort of defeats the purpose of wearing a tinfoil helmet.
No, you would be buying records if you were a true audiophile
You *CRACK* tell *POP TSSS* them! Nothing "snap* beats *snap snap* the perfect pure *POP* sound of an LP.

This reminds me of Mike Oldfield's Maestro music/VR videogame.
In the default/demo mode, you can hit the spacebar and fire at whatever is in front of you. The bullets resemble tiny circuitboards.

"Yup. Sorry she didn't use a name that had never been used before" ...in this case, a name held by two famous 19th century figures.
She at least she could have called the character "Robert Galt", as there is no other famous Robert Galt.
I knew of the psychologist John Galt anyway, but I googled the name and turned up another famous John Galt who was a novelist in the 19th century.
Rand didn't have a problem coming up with a name that was not already used by famous historic persons when she came up with "Howard Roark".

That's who he really was. Ayn Rand sure confused the issue when she named a character after a famous 19th century psychologist.
" an incontrovertibly brilliant physician who brought the full flower of Moral Management treatment to Williamsburg"
From The Galt Figures. He was a major figure in American mental health history.

how does feeding the cats to dogs fix the problem of surplus food for the cats?
In the spring, when the gorillas thaw, the buzzards and other carrion-birds come in from across the land and scare all the fish away from the area.

do cats know to keep the fish out? And do they work in shifts or what??
Some work in shifts. A few work in loincloths, but most wear the catsuits they were born with.
But what happens when the cats over-eat, get fat and die?

We can thank Ted Kennedy for pushing for this initiative. He is tired of salt water ruining his clothes when he goes driving.
