I recall seeing a gas company booth at a local fair, that had a flame burning from a horizontal ring suspended in a clear plexi box.
The ring was suspended by 4 small clotheshanger-diameter sized wire bars that had the ends running through the walls of the box.
The walls were freely accessible, and the top was open so you could see inside. No other tubes or wires were evident.
As a kid, I suspected trickery.
Now, after years of drinking and drugging, trying to escape the unfathomable mystery of the unsolvable corundrum haunting my every waking moment, I know what it was.
that in the Bizzaro universe, there are a bunch of DotSlashers posting about the attempts at porting Win-does to these closed-source Lunix monopoly products?
I am presently using the Experimental client; while it works rather well and looks alright, it puts a zillion 'BT's in my sys tray and windows on my desktop - one for every ahem 'linux iso' I have completed. Does your client keep it to one, with a pop-up menu? Or am I destined to have 23 'BT's across my screen?
As a recent new user, I am constantly amazed at the sheer speed of BT for large files, and would love to see more use of it on/. (even though I downloaded the D3 trailer, and saw a lot of people 'close their windows'. grrr.)
BT seems to me like the beginning of an excellent solution to/.ed websites, and the easier it is to make a.torrent file and distribute the start-up? file, the more content we'll see.
Here's a question: Is there any way to reopen the file for sharing? Say, close it when I'm doing something bandwidth intensive (RTCW), and bring it up later?

Find RIAA employees.
Hit them. In the face. Hard.
When asked why, respond, "You look like someone who owed me money. Guess not. Sorry. Here's a Ultimate Fighting Championship T-shirt and DVD."
It's great to be on board with the tactics used by our friendly copyright holders! Go Team!
I like the nooses convienently placed above each seat, so if you have a sudden bout of realization that you work for Radio Shack, you can quickly put yourself out of your misery. That's a work-perk!
You are heavy, ugly and will not fit in my pocket. Do you connect to iTunes? I did not think so! Who needs all that silly brain storage space when you are parroting overhyped marketing about digital recording stuff anyway.
Try finding 6 note phrases that haven't been recorded by The Beatles.
Hey Paul, can I have Florida and Montana?
I can't believe this judgement. Sounds like a case of "I didn't sell 9 million records, but I'll sue the guy who did, and pay for my next album called 'Sour Grapes'."

Ooh...one more good link.
and with the help of Google
I've been looking for info on what/where this place was since I was a kid and saw it on Ripliey's Believe it or Not or somthing...

(okay, so I'm stretching things just a little)
Don't wipe so hard.
Which side will be beaten down first?
I predict the calculator watch will take the most punishment. YMMV.
I really typed that, and hit submit.
Wow.
I think I know who took the Segway.
I could be a mile long by now! You'll pay Mailblocks, YOU WILL PAY!
Look up! It's all the space you could ever use!
I'm not quite sure what to think. Shouldn't this be a .cx domain?

It's their loss leader! Don't be fooled!
Howie, what are you doing in my house, and what are you staring at?

No doubt being a member of Alcoholics Anonymous Anonymous helps to calm some of the animal terror these rides must create.
I think I peed myself.
They really sting, and could put your eye out.
Doesn't seem to have hurt the graphics/typography industry any.

Ner. This is hardly aimed towards an iPod user.

But that's just a rumor.
And /. the bastards! It seems they are in flash btw...
