This is absolutely correct! In fact, you are supposed to report and pay use tax on everything you purchase - even used stuff from garage sales, (not that anyone does).
To win a political race against Stevens, all his opponent needs do is bring this conviction up. That's not saying that I disagree with you but the real world will probably take care of this without the need for more laws.
Oh come on mods - where's your sense of humor? It's rare to see an old troll post like this actually be pertinent to the subject. It should be rewarded, not modded into oblivion!
"You cannot imagine the warm fuzzy feeling I get imagining crates and crates of the latest Britney Spears album sinking to the bottom of the harbour."
Don't worry. Britney's 'performance' at the VMA's last week will help insure that you get your wish. She finally proved to everyone that her (lack of) talent is the best tool available to accomplish your dreams.
No way, dude. You want Sylvester Stallone. I saw him beat the crap out of Dolph once - on his home turf too. Heart of a lion, or eye of a tiger, or something...
Even that pansy, Jean Claude Van Dumbe, did the splits a bunch of times and beat Dolph's ass.
Harken to my words, young one. You will rue the day that you pick him for your happy fun ball team!
"Personally, I think it's a bad idea to focus too much on any one person, as no one can really claim to be the most important."
This is a good point to be sure. However, it is called Linux - not Stallnux or Raadtux. Since most people don't know where the linux name came from, it's not really a bad idea for Time magazine to make the unwashed masses a little more aware of who got this whole thing started. Anyone that becomes interested will figure out who the other players are eventually.
Do you really not see the distinction? The difference seems obvious: I'm not using '**AA' in an effort to extort money through threatened litigation. You seem to still be stuck on that 'cops and blogs' type of analogy. Newsflash - it still doesn't fit this discussion which, as far as I'm concerned, is over. I've wasted enough time already and am clearly not getting through to you.

Yeah, I don't get it either, (at least you can take some solace from the fact that your 'ba-ZING!' got modded higher than my *** Whoosh! *** ;-])
L8r...

I don't have an 8-track player - but I do leave several 8-track tapes strewn around my car interior.
Best. Anti-Theft System. Ever. (YMMV)

"What if you participate in obscure sports?"
Then perhaps you should subscibe to, 'Obscure Sports Quarterly'...?
Hey now, let's not forget that Dyslexics are teople poo.
"Barq's tastes like crap..."
I might agree with you - if I had any idea at all what crap tastes like.

Thank you, thank you - I'll be here all week. Tip your waiters & waitresses. Oh, and please try the veal.
OP did not say it would be the last character you enter. S/He said it would be the very last character you would need to try.
A fine distinction to be sure but still a significant one to 'getting the joke'.
Maybe his kids are 19 and 23 and live in his basement?
Or, maybe I should just say, 'whoosh'?
No, I think their plan might be more like...
1) Embrace
2) ?
3) Profit!
If that doesn't work, Plan 'B' will probably involve throwing some chairs around while cursing.

Maybe they used the new Gmail Paper service? If so, can't we just get copies from Google, then? :-)
"IE expensive, bad service."
Huh? I was under the impression that Microsoft didn't charge for their browser.
Can't argue with the 'bad service' part tho...
Anyone else having trouble with the 'Zero Pollution' website linked from that page?
I get a Network Solutions page that says, "Coming Soon! - This site is under construction".
"Say bye bye to all windows in the neighbourhood."
Fine. Just as long as it leaves other OS'es alone.

"They're too busy grasping at the pages."
Too busy grasping at votes is more like it.
At least that's what this sounds like to me as we head into November.
Either way, it will still 'suck'.

Strange, I just tried both of those passwords at 'www.whitehouse.gov', and they didn't work at all. Got any other ideas...?
Crash! Crunch! Smash!
Hey! Who are you guys? What are you doing with those truncheons?
Ow! Hey!...

"Lets just create the Department of Nanotechnology..."
The only thing I like about that idea is the resulting acronym...
(D)epartment (O)f (N)ano(T)echnology
'Odiferous Odin'
'Virginal Valhalla'
'Frisky Fenris'
'Happy Hel'
I could go on but, thankfully, I won't...
