Me: who's this?
Them: We are calling to see how many children you have..

There you go:)
But doesn't Google provide ads to its gmail customers based on the content present in the email? Isn't that an invasion of privacy? Practise what you preach? It isn't spyware but isn't it spying - Sure users know what they are dealing with or do they?
I agree - if you want to highlight something or make it stand out, use italics or enclose the text between asterisks. Sheesh of all places - that posting is so n00b like.
Finally i can get the ideal girlfriend - someone who will shut up when i don't want her to talk. She would do the cleaning, the laundry and the cooking and best of all she wont be tired when she's done. Yay - yes i am a loser. Still - yay!!
NASA's experimental X-43A hypersonic research vehicle, securely mounted to the B-52 mother ship that will launch it, took off from Edwards Air Force Base at 3:21 p.m. Pacific Standard Time Monday, Jan. 26, 2004 for a captive-carry test scheduled for two and a half hours during which the experimental craft remained attached to the B-52.
The photograph Plane shows the B52 bomber - i'm still searching for the hypersonic baby plane
But the people in the Mac BU take noticeable pride in Office for Mac as a product in its own right, not merely a translation of Windows Office to the Mac operating system. Office 2004 for Mac, for example, includes a number of features not available in the Windows version of Office, such as a "project center" in the Entourage e-mail program that lets users manage in one place a project that involves different types of files.
From the Washington Post article here which is btw the article which is actually referenced in the article that's posted above,
An unmanned Stryker is part of the military's effort to move more machines into battle to save both money and lives. "Well before the end of the century, there will be no people on the battlefield," said Robert Finkelstein, a professor at the University of Maryland's School of Management and Technology.
The sad part is of course that he didn't say: "Well before the end of the century, there will no longer be a need for battlefields":(.
Sad Sad:(
A demonstration of the hole is currently on security company Secunia's website and demonstrates that if you click on a link, and select "Open" it purports to be downloading a pdf file whereas in fact it is an HTML executable file.

SCO's Linux reversal isn't the only change, though. SuSE Linux, whose software formed the foundation for a version shared by all four companies, has been acquired by Novell. Along with that acquisition will come an endorsement from IBM, the loudest Linux advocate, in the form of a $50 million investment in Novell.
So you see - there are other things too that matter(ed) here.
Oops people do hate TVs and computers. I sometimes hate computers but the article says people hate razors? Dang - i love my Gillette Mach III. The only thing i would really hate is the battery - i need it really bad but hate the short life and the need to keep hunting for an electrical socket after a few hours - this thing called the battery is present in everything i kinda hate - cellphone, mp3 player, gameboy, laptop - a good part of the hate being that the battery life isn't great.
For a second, i was like "Is today a Sunday?" Then i saw my crystal ball and it had a date 8th Jan on the lower right corner. Shame you for misleading me with this kind of news. Thursdays aren't slow days are they?
Chose two very mediocre movies did you? I am an Indian and have lived in India for twenty five years. Maybe this is how you want to associate to the indian inside you but sorry to disappoint you.
Most Bollywood movies suck. PERIOD. For every 20 good Hollywood movies, there is gonna be a decent Bollywood movie. Hell i even hate saying Bollywood : how's that for creativity eh?. That wasn't always the case but now the directors/producers/writers have run out of plots and they have copied enough material from Hollywood, French and Italian cinema that they need fresh material (the joke is that a director in Bollywood takes about 10 years to remake a french movie in Hindi because he has to learn French first). There is no comparision between Hollywood and Bollywood.
Would you be pissed? Or would you be pissed if you were not an American? and if you are not an American, you should have been pissed already in which can being peed upon twice makes no sense.
Before you take arms in the typical slashdot manner, consider the key lines from the article:
The move underscores the wrath of countries that for years have been unhappy with what they perceive as their voicelessness over how the Internet is run and over U.S. ownership of key Internet resources. It also foretells the level of criticism that both the U.S. government and the Internet Corporation, or ICANN, may face at the UN meeting, one of the largest gatherings ever of high-level government officials, business leaders and nonprofit organizations to discuss the Internet's future. .
I understand the concerns of other nations about their having a say in the way the Internet as we know today is going to shape into. I also understand how a lot of the work went into the original ARPANET and DARPA from the US and the universities. I guess we need an UIO (United Internet Organisation!)...something like that. Can't we frag each other in peace?:-)
..there are about 150million users (give or take a few hundred thousand) of Win9x and WinNT out there? Do you? Do you know thousands of people still use Win95?

Yes i am an Indian.
The nuclear weapons program is to just make sure the British don't think about coming back to India again - same for China or the US.
