Sounds like the target audience for all of those V1AgR::A and "See Alice" spams. Just about the right age, now.
" at those lucky enough to own a penis. Indeed, as most of us know who grew up in the late 70s and early 80s,yes, sometimes grandma stole an extra one."
Odd family there.
10. Automatically incinerate Kerry or Bush bumper stickers placed on them.
9. Go to Hill Valley whenever the car reaches 88 mph.
8. Make really cool "putta-pa-put-put-putter-pa-pa-put-pa" bubbly sounds when Fred McMurray drives it through the air.
7. Make Steve Jobs shit his pants.
6. Not enough room on the hood for the Trump logo.
5. Why won't anyone invent the full-windshield TFT display so we can play Doom 3 while we drive? Come on now!
4. Annoy David Hasselhoff.
3. Get 400 miles to the gallon (we KNOW Exxon-Mobile has warehouses filled with home-garage built super carburetors).
2. where's the middle headlights??? Too bad Tucker is dead.
1. "Take out the trash".
He may look like Young Frankenstein, and dance like Elaine Benes, but the man is a shrewed business shark. Either what he says is true, or more likely it is a "FUD" plan by Microsoft to achieve some sort of effect that we are not discussing here.
From my point of view, however, his statement makes no sense at all.
As long as they are advertising by yard signs, and not spam, it's pretty good.
No having to face emails every morning with titles like:

"Yeah, but then how are you going to know what to look at? Just browse through random addresses, hoping to find a useful photograph of a decent building?"
I have listings of buildings by certain architects. Only a fraction of these buildings appear on the Web. With this resource in place, I'd be able to enter the address and see the building.
"It mostly applies to famous buildings like the Transamerica Pyramid or NYC Chrysler Building"
Do you know any details on this? I've not heard of anyone being restricted from photographing these buildings and selling them or doing what they want to, as photos. I've seen lots of of photos made and sold of the Chrysler Building ever since its creation, with no restrictions. Scott McCloud even made a comic book supervillain in its image.
As for the Tranaamerica Pyramid, I could see someone getting in trouble for using it as their corporate logo.
"As an architect I'm sure you will appreciate looking for Passeig de Gracia 92, Barcelona"
Not that familiar with Barcelona yet. Is that Gaudi's rippled apartment building? Just a guess, as it does not sound like it is the location of Parca Guell or La Sagrada Familia
OK, say you are in Portland, Oregon, and want to see what the building next to the library looks like in Portland, Maine. Hope you have really good shoes!
I, for one, avoid using old-fashioned coal-fired Godbout and IMSAI servers in the server room. This keeps the IT operation "clean and green" and prevents global warming.
This is not such a good idea, and prone to mischievous hackers. Speak up now unless you are open to the idea of seeing Goatse get a generous amount of screen time in "Shrek 3".
Who needs projectile weapons once every soldier has a holographic-emmiting projector that displays Goatse right at every enemy troop? No one would ever think of advancing through that, and the traumatic flashbacks of this horrid image will haunt them to their graves.

Don't blame Kerry on this. He doesn't care about the Red Sox. He would have bought the team already if he cared a bit about it.
If only the NHL players had thought to demand full season-of-play level royalties from EA Sports in the event that the actual season never happens!
Just like the recent Red Wings, actually.
A shrewed friggin shark with friggin laser-beams mounted on his friggin head.
Vote for the Hulk? Let me guess: he's on the Green Party ticket. I wonder what his stand is concerning atomic testing.

Just make it slightly larger, in order to accomodate a couple of buttons, a headphone jack, and an audio file decoder chip.
"We love Apple!"
"Go Go Gateway!!!"
"Exidy Sorceror is pure magic!""
"Dude, we got Dell!!!"

heh. you're right. Could have done with out that, and just mentioned "architectural interest" rather than the obvious already-stated way to get there.
OK, say you are in Portland, Oregon, and want to see what the building next to the library looks like in Portland, Maine. Hope you have really good shoes!
I just happen to be an enthusiast of the art of architecture. This would be a great way to look up and view buildings by address/location.
I, for one, avoid using old-fashioned coal-fired Godbout and IMSAI servers in the server room. This keeps the IT operation "clean and green" and prevents global warming.

Just activate that webcam on top of the monitor, pointed at the user. You're going to see plenty of Shrek's at home.

If this means full iPods built into the suit, count me in! Where's the nearest recruiting office? Who needs ammo when you are armed with 5,000 songs.
Get help writing battle plan.
