  1. For Zaurus users... on Snood, the Simple Game · · Score: 3, Informative

    there is Froot. Definitely a must for Zaurus gamers who like Snood.

  2. Re:A donkey laden with gold...... on The Art of Deception · · Score: 2

    guess all the nerds at CIA-Langley with all their cool equipment will not contribute even half as much to catching Osam Bin Landen

    So you mean to tell me this guy is one of them?!?!?!

    I guess there will be 72 virgins on his Highway to Heaven, eh?

  3. Re:Hey girls (and guys), read to not bleed. on Tallest Roller Coaster in the World · · Score: 5, Funny

    To add to the above poster, those of you with the "Prince Albert" piercing style may do well to go on the teacups instead. :)

  4. Ultimate show of military might on New and Improved - SmarTruck II · · Score: 5, Funny

    SmarTruckII could just sit and listen, send bogus e-mails to confuse an enemy, or, if it is not amused, kill the enemy communications system altogether.

    The US military has discovered the destructive power of Slashdotting. Be afraid. Be very afraid.

  5. Re:Best comment on Amazon regarding the matter on TurboTax Activation Fiasco · · Score: 2

    So did he/she get a faster refund from El TurboTaxo© or what?

  6. Re:send her back to France on Laser-Scanning U.S. Landmarks · · Score: 4, Funny

    If anything happens to the Statue of Liberty, why not just send her back to France and get them to do warranty repair.

    No way! We'll get the Statue of Liberty back with both arms up!

    *ducks*

  7. Re:Another blog from the past on 1660 Diary Becomes 2003 Weblog · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I've read the book A Midwife's Tale transcribed from the diary in the above post. Its an excellent read.

    What would have been dismissed at the time as the mundane details of a New England midwife has proven to be an invaluable historical register of the area. Births, deaths, business transactions, travel routes, etc all preserved for future study.

    What better way to learn about history but from the perspective of the one who lived it (to the best of the writers recollection, anyway).

  8. Real reason for arrest on Russian Student Arrested For Revealing DirecTV Secrets · · Score: 5, Funny

    According to confidential law enforcement memos, he is also suspected of starting the "IN SOVIET RUSSIA" cliche.

    This has a maximum punishment of 20 years of hard labor building beowulf clusters for Profit!

  9. Re:Why is this a good idea? on Help Wire Remote Laos Villages · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    I'm hiring some to shill my Ebay auctions and post dumb comments on my behalf. Viva globablization.

  10. Re:Social Eng 101: How to get Access. on Kevin Free · · Score: 2

    I picked up his new book and was impressed how well he used real-world examples to drive home key points of social engineering (although he swears up and down that all of the accounts are fictional).

    In spite of this, I couldn't help but feel that I was allowing this convicted felon to profit from his crime. With the book, speaking engagements, seminars, etc.. he will most certainly be laughing all the way to the bank

  11. Re:clones on First Human Clone Born? · · Score: 5, Funny

    Don't be fooled. It's all a plot to resurrect this guy.

    I, for one, welcome our hockey and donut-eating overlords.

  12. Re:this is wrong! on Disney to Create Walking Animatronic Dinosaur · · Score: 2

    Lifted from here:

    Dr. AlJohn Hammond (Richard Attenborough): "This is just a delay -- all major theme parks have delays. When they opened Disneyland in 1956, nothing worked."

    Ian Malcolm (Jeff Goldblum): "Yeah, but John, if the Pirates of the Caribbean breaks down, the pirates don't eat the tourists."

  13. New slashdotting term? on PC in a.... Sphere? · · Score: 4, Funny

    If a site is being hosted from one of these and it gets posted here, could it be said that we're busting their balls?

  14. Re:This is a sad story, people on Sklyarov Discusses the ElcomSoft Trial · · Score: 2

    The justice is that we may now have a vocal spokesman to put an end to the "In Soviet Russia..." cliche.

  15. Using the Get Smart model? on Amazon Seeks '2-Click' Shopping Cart Patent · · Score: 5, Funny

    Amazon: At this very moment, we have teams of lawyers working on patenting our one click buying technology.

    *silence*

    Would you believe two click buying?

    *silence*

    Would you believe five clicks and and clack?

  16. I'm sorry... on Sony, Matsushita Back Linux For Consumer Goods · · Score: 3, Funny
  17. If EA is anything like Disney... on EA As The Next Disney · · Score: 2

    then I'll be first in line for the Road Rash ride at their theme park.

    Hope I get the billyclub... :)

  18. Re:Sierra games! on Top Ten Most Collectible Video Games · · Score: 1

    Kings Quest did indeed rock, as did O-topos (sp?) and Articfox. Did anyone else have the cheesy outboard RAM upgrade for the PCJr?

  19. Cut Taco some slack on AOL Awarded Millions in Spam Case · · Score: 2

    He just got back from his honeymoon and was probably distracted with.... umm.......

    Divying up the souvenirs he bought us! Thats right.

    I look forward to getting my dr_dank keychain from Vegas.

  20. Re:speaking of... on A Conference About Spam · · Score: 5, Funny

    Do they actually do anything with the stuff?

    Of course they do. Judging by their large penises and all that money made from home, they've done quite well for themselves to boot.

  21. At least... on Company Christmas Gifts / Bonuses? · · Score: 3, Funny

    you didn't get a one year subscription to the jelly-of-the-month club.

    Which, IMHO, led to one of the best tirades in a motion picture.

  22. Re:[ I Found His Patent Application ] on Tornado in a Can · · Score: 5, Funny

    Its been around MUCH longer than that. Wile E. Coyote was the first buyer, IIRC.

  23. Re:Please.. on Me Oh Me Oh My, Malda Gets Married · · Score: 2

    While we're at it, PLEASE rename robdoeswaynenewton.jpg. That is one mental image I don't need before lunch.

    BTW, congratulations to you both.

  24. Re:I wonder... on Chemotherapy Patients Set Off Subway Alarms · · Score: 2

    Would you need to a chemo-card to prove that you really had cancer and had to have the treatment?

    Whos to say that those who are up to no good couldn't forge one of those cards to skirt security? That reminds me of that "fast-track" proposal for airline security that frequent fliers could breeze though security checkpoints. It sets up an all-too-fallable chink in the armor.

  25. Re:Almost as good as the rest of the world on IBM, AT&T and Intel Plan National Wireless ISP · · Score: 2

    Voicestream (at least in the northeast) was formerly Omnipoint.
