But a Quizno sandwich does taste like dog poo. Who knows, may be they were going for truthful advertising.
And before I get moderated into oblivion. Please someone back me up on this. If you've ever eaten at a Quiznos, please tell us your experience good or bad.
The Grapes of Wrath, I loved that book. How does it go again?
As some pirated version of their Monsanto seeds show up on the black market, the Joads, a family of Oklahoma farmers are forced off their land and their suv is repossessed. The daughter gets into prostitution. The boy goes to work at McDonald. The wife remarries. And the father kills himself. The End.
In my personal experience, it's just like globalization and open markets: real scary if you are engaged in deception, and absolutely fantastic if you want lots of choice.
But he/she doesn't WANT to try out a few editors until they find the ones they like. Oh no. That would be legwork. Research. It would be hard and take time and might even involve skill and talent.
So naturally, when you don't want to do the work yourself and don't have any skill or talent, you ask/. to tell you what's good. Surely/. knows all, tells all, and always only the truth.
It's called social learning. It's partially frowned upon in school, but it's a good idea in real life. I don't know why you have such a big chip on your shoulder, but with all the leads he's getting -- his work and his research is just beginning.
I know this is 20/20 hindsight, but it might also have been a good idea to ask him what he wanted to do with it. When my mom asked for a laptop, it meant she wanted a new digital camera and her own PC to process them and send them off to friends and family.
In my first journal, someone asked what i thought about the U.S funding the april 11th coup in my country.
Some months ago, i was browsing Stallman's site and i was mad. He was defending my president (which he does not know) because he said the U.S had funded the coup, cheated on the Florida elections, etc etc.
Anyway, for those of you that have some credible information, comments are welcome.
First my disclaimer: I don't like Bush and I don't support half of his policies, but I did vote for him last turn around and I do believe he won the Florida elections (especially since both camps tried to cheat)
As to the Venezuela question, since you want a credible source, look at the Forbes magazine from April 8th through April 12th. Forbes magazine does not give you definitive proof that the US spurred the coup in Venezuela, but it gives good circumstantial evidence that Chavez and Saddam both fired the first shot against the US on April 8th.
By firing the first shot, Chavez pulled a Fidel Castro on us, he made us attack before we were ready. It's a classic Chess move and one that really helped him consolidate his position.
If you still don't believe me, look at what spurred us to do our first coup in Iran. The official reason is not a secret anymore, go look it up. The circumstances are eerily similar.
What has this World come to. First a religious rant that actually goes against Apple and now an iBook owner that actually comes back from the dead to defend Apple.
When you spill coffee on yourself, you wave your arms/jump around a bit from the pain, and end up cooling the coffee to a luke warm temperature. I can understand that this lady was older, but moving quickly is a natural reaction. To get third degree burns you must have either the weakest skin in existence, or the slowest reaction time I've ever seen.
Nice theory, but the lady spilled it on her crotch while she was sitting in her car. There is so much movement you can do down there.
If we can genetically modify plants not to make seeds, how long will it be before we can GM Idiots so they don't breed either?
No need for genetic engineering, Slashdot takes care of that. The couple of guys that can reproduce depite Slashdot and the presence of shiny new things are the smart ones.
"At a minimum, there's legal costs from incorporating with your partners, "
Don't take on partners, aside from the legal cost or the potential liability of having partners, sharing the work and sharing the benefits of a company with someone never works out in the end.
My advice is to either be a subcontractor or use others as subcontractors. If you don't have money, you can always barter your time with the other guy, but at least you'll have complete control of your project and the other guy will have complete control over his project.
I know this isn't what common sense dictates and I know that this might not work for specific large-scale ventures, but trust me, if you ever had troubles with partners in the past -- I urge you to try this approach.
To the average American, the London streets always seem to be very cluttered with mud and construction crews always tearing up the streets and rebuilding the streets (and sidewalks) everytime a small new little wire needs to be installed.
As to the kids in the UK, I agree with you completely on that count. I am currently living in one of the most dangerous cities in the US and I've noticed that the teenagers from the ghetto, the ones that look like hoodlums and walk like they're carrying a gun, well those teenagers are not nearly as sadistic and mean-spirited as the typical clean-cut white uniformed twelve years olds from London, UK. Don't ask me why this is so, but London kids are just screwed up and I'm sure glad they don't have access to guns like their American counterparts.
Finally, a viable business model for Slashdot.

Dan concluded that he couldn't simply lend Lissa his computer. But he couldn't refuse to help her, because he loved her. Every chance to speak with her filled him with delight. And that she chose him to ask for help, that could mean she loved him too.

I don't know about you guys, but I really could empathize with Dan, the last time I loaned out my computer to a girl she found all my porn.
I would cut and paste the story here, but it's copyrighted.
Oh goody goody, I get to be on an Irish guys foe's list. What does that do exactely?
For god's sake, don't use a double negative when you have something inflammatory to say. I don't know whether I should flame you or agree with you.
I don't know if this is still the case, but for a time, the official reason that they kept Office running on Macs was because of antitrust concerns.
Is your sister good looking?
Jamie is out in two month. She's soooo cute.
Speaking of choice, if any of you lonely geeks like convicts -- there is always

Maria is kind of cute and her release date is only 7/25/2007
I can wait... (-:

Guilt. Linux. OS X. Sounds like a religious post to me.

If you go the self-employed route and even if you're not earning squat, know that the government will take your unemployement benefits away.
