I grew up in one of those extreme rural areas. Our electric company was a co-op. Grants from the Appalachian Regional Commission, a favorite punching bag of Republicans, helped subsidize the infrastructure, in the mid-50's.
I think a similar thing for broadband would be fantastic, except there's no point - everyone that lives in extreme rural areas and wants broadband already has it through Direcway (I know, it sucks, my parents still live in the boonies and have it) or similar.
To be fair, I should point out that the 'safe sex' policies lauded by prior administrations weren't exactly effective either. Better to try something new that doesn't work than stick with the same old that hasn't been working for decades. Yeah, because nobody thought of abstinence before. Especially not the church, which is who is feeding Bush his entire platform.
I actually enjoyed the Spider-Man 2 DS game. It's never going to replace anyone's #1 on any list of the best games of all-time, but it was better than that teenage dating game shit and the Super Mario 64 rehash that they released along with it, at least.
So Google wants to be the web's authoritative source on what sites can be trusted? I don't think I like the sound of that. No one entity should have that job.
Ideally everyone would use common sense, but so few people have that anymore that it's almost quaint to suggest it.
Kevin Smith has a following because there are a shitload of guys out there that are both turned on and intimidated by their girlfriends' sexual histories. Every one of his movies that I've seen has this as a major story arc.
Or, Obi-Wan could have been lying to Luke when he said he didn't know the droids. Or if you're into psychobabble, maybe it's a represssed memory, since the droids were associated in obi-wan's mind with a horrible tragic event.

Thank you. I wish I had mod points today.
and the news, too.
Google's starting to scare me, and I'm not even a tinfoil-hatter.
Buying articles like this on sites like How Stuff Works is very subtle. Nice trick.
Fender guitars?
Secularism is merely the correct philosophy for a modern society. It is not meant to cure every social problem.

Hey, wait a minute....

blame UPS for that. They're the ones with the idiotic ship only on weekdays policy.
Fedex Ground/Home Delivery will do Saturdays, as will Priority Mail (which in my experience has been better than UPS in every way)
unless they're wrongly accused, right?
Google will give the higher TrustRank rating to the site that the government tells them to give it to.

No, married and happily so, with great in-laws. Try another stereotype.
what about using an auxiliary analog stick?
That said, I'm happy to hear that a decent DS game is coming out.
I'm with you. I love my country and I always will, but I'm ashamed of its government.
He apologized for Mallrats, way before Chasing Amy even came out.

yeah, but I hate cliche's like the one about evil mothers-in-law so I'd do it just on general principle.
that's a damn good point.

yeah, the ALT-F4 thing is ultimately harmless. It just closed their copy of mIRC. That dd command was shitty, though.
I used to change channel topics to read "User Op Day! Press ALT-F4 For Ops!" and watch half the channel drop :)
in the 1992 election they did. Perot came off as a moderate republican then. He didn't go batshit crazy until the 1996 election.
let me try that again (damn slash and its lack of editing)
