I sell fake artifacts for the fake ebay artifact auctions, and have noticed this. I used to get three times as much for my fake artifacts (with aged certificate of authenticy). Because of this, I now write "This Artifact is Fake, Hoser" in the appropriate runes on each one I produce. They still sell well, and noone has caught on yet.
Someone apparently tried to kill me once by vaporizing a large quantity of DHMO in my room! They also tried to sneak it into my chicken soup! We need legislation to require distribution of this stuff to only leagally authorized and trained personal. It should be as hard to get as personal guns!
What's immoral about it? Why should it be illegal for IBM to buy SUN products? SUN already got money for selling it the first time.
If you buy a new car, they will offer you some money for your old one, no matter who made it, and that is normally considered legal. This is the same thing.
Maybe they could squeeze more in if they limited to upper case letters only, or maybe if they printed them smaller. The could also cut spaces in half, it should still be readable.
Costs just a little less than a kindle 2, less memory, no keyboard, smaller screen, fewer features. No idea how many book titles will be available for it.
It does have a calculator though.
Makes me want to run out and get one to replace my kindle 2.
In other words, the reporters don't care what the readers think of their stories. As long as they get to over-hype whatever story they want (a brown nose Obama story, or a effusive global warming rant), they don't care if nobody wants to buy the paper.
It's just like the current group of teachers. They don't care if they actually teach anything, and are upset when someone wants to make sure that the kids are able to read after graduating high school, as long as they get paid for pushing them forwards.
You and a friend go to the movie, and you both get the glasses. Now pop the red lens out of your pair, and the blue one from your friends. Put his blue one in your glasses, and your red one in his.
Since the red one gives you the 3D effect, having two blue ones means you will be seing things in 2D. You friend, however, will only be seeing the extra dimension with both eyes, and his head will explode.
Make sure the friend you bring isn't that important of a friend, and bring some of those wet towlettes.
Actually he didn't even do that (stopped research), he only stopped *federal funding* on new lines of ESC.
He didn't stop "federal funding", because there was no federal funding to begin with. He created the funding of a limited nature, and chose to start with research that didn't require killing babies.
He didn't even ban reasearch on embryonic stem cells, he just stated that the government wouldn't fund it beyond already existing cell lines. You could do all the research you wanted to on it, but the federal government wouldn't pay for it.
Wait until someone actually gets cured. This needs to show more than a placebo effect, and proof of cure from someone outside of the actors. The people who they claim to have cured may not have had anything wrong with them in the first place.
This sounds a lot like other snake-oil salesmen in the medical business. A lot of initial hype, and when results fail to appear they just quietly disappear again, taking their money with them. They do make a LOT of money on such scams, which is why they are so popular. $15,000USD per treatment would bring in a lot of money from desperate people.

It might be the wooden one. The one stamped "Made in China" is also suspicious, since he was from Italy.
I'm also wondering about that gross of Jesus pinkey finger bones I bought, and the seven true crosses I have in my front yard. Any way to test them?

But, if it turns out to have been created last tuesday, then you're only burning a few cents worth.
Yes, but it really didn't like it, and wasn't as erotic as it sounds.
But, they taste better than lawnmowers...

No. This means that the average selling price of sun equipment on ebay just jumped.

I wonder why nobody's got a 3270 emulator on the iPhone yet.

Because the cable that connects the screen to the keyboard weighs about 10 lb more than the rest of the components.

So Linux could have a negative users? I mean, I can be disgruntled...
Depends on how gruntled you started out as.
I just replaced all the lamps in my house with these, but they just don't seem to brighten up the room like the old ones, and now my cat is missing.
The things we must endure for global warming to be a success.
Just do a HDTV conversion. Give a specific date when IPV4 support will be dropped, then extend the date when the timeout gets close.
Ummm, brains...
Are they just checking for the existance of the evil bit?
Ok, what's the translation of "Frakkin' Federation" from Klingon to English?
But, even after his death, it was frequently reported that fetal stem cells would allow him to walk again.
I guess that they were thinking of "Night of the Living Dead", and similiar movies.

So that's why they flew air force one over New York City. They were making a live action version of this comic book.

Hay waiter, there's a hair in my beans, and I haven't even picked them yet.
Yea! We get the Buck Rogers rocket ships that land on their fins. Do we also get the evil galactic empires too? And the super-weapons of EE Doc Smith?
