  1. Attack of the Martian Carpenter Bees ! on Massive Cave Found on Mars · · Score: 1

    Hope that the bugger doesn't come flyin' outta that hole!

    I've got some of those carpenter bee holes on my wood deck. Looks just like the picture.

    A bit smaller, though...

  2. Re:Resignation. on Immaturity Level Rising in Adults · · Score: 1

    Who wants to revert back to being a virgin again ???

    Hey, wait a minute, I've been married for years. It seems like I'm heading in that direction anyway...

  3. ... MPAA might start to get the idea. on HD DVD to Screw Early HDTV Adopters · · Score: 1

    Quote: "If HD fails in the marketplace, and I mean utterly fails , the MPAA might start to get the idea."

    Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha !!!!!!!!!!!

    You must be overmedicated.

  4. For small appetites on Scientists Discover World's Smallest Fish · · Score: 5, Funny

    Scientists are now seeking a miniature species of potatoes so they can make the world's smallest batch of fish 'n chips.

    I suppose they could call it microfiche and microchips...

  5. Did anyone go after Xerox? on Song Sites Face Legal Crackdown · · Score: 1

    "The Xerox machine was the big usurper of our potential income,"

    If Xerox is taking away from the sheet music revenue, which is entirely possible is a small way, why don't they go after them?

    Answer is, the don't want to pick on an entity big enough to fight back.

    "Hey, lets go after the little guys instead."

    Brave bastards, ain't they?

  6. It happens everywhere on Recovering Secret HD Space · · Score: 2, Funny

    I have a friend who works in a Toyota engine plant. A while age he told me that they began cutting costs by only making 6-cylinder engines, even though the Corolla I purchased was supposed to have a 4-cylinder.

    Don't tell anybody, but if you get a couple of extra spark plug wires, and use them to connect the evaporative fuel cannister to the glove compartment, guess what? Now you have 6 cylinders purring in harmony under the hood.

    Be aware, though, that it will lower your mileage a bit.

    And don't tell your insurance agent. Your rates will go up.

  7. I Love It... .cif files on Suddenly a JPEG Patent and Licensing Fee · · Score: 1

    Alright! A new file extension, .cif , "Crap Image Format". Where can I get pam_anderson.cif ?

  8. Re:I use tccomputers.com on Home-Built vs. Store-Bought PCs · · Score: 1

    I meant to say ... and it was on my front porch *** 25 hours *** after pressing the 'Enter' key to place the order ...
    Now how did that happen? Bad keyboard, bad! No biscuit!!

  9. I use tccomputers.com on Home-Built vs. Store-Bought PCs · · Score: 1

    I recently built 2 white boxen for home use. I used newegg and had no complaints. But TC Computers was quicker and cheaper. I ordered a mobo/cpu/fan combo about 2 months ago, and it was on my front porch >> 25 hours to place the order! And every day they have a 'Todays Deal' item in addition to weekly specials. I find myself checking their site every day to see what the deal of the day is. Dangit, didn't I get that HTML code right???
