  16. Re:It'd be fairly easy to change on Pledge of Allegiance Ruled Unconstitutional · · Score: 1

    "Allah is a ballish moon god" A muslim would consider this a direct insult to Yaweh and Your Christian God. The crescent moon is a symbol of Islam because they go by the Lunar calendar, nothing more. Islam states that upon judgement day, Muhammed & Jesus Christ will come back together. Just pointing out some facts that they teach us in World History 101. I advise you look into getting a college/university education rather than a church one your parents adopted you into.

  17. Newegg.com on Home-Built vs. Store-Bought PCs · · Score: 1

    Newegg is definitely a good site as far as quality products/price are concerned. However a few things keep me from consistantly ordering from them: 1. California sales tax. Living in San Diego, I always check pricewatch and order stuff from neighboring states just to avoid the extra bones that get tacked on. Usually that beats out the additional shipping charge. 2. Seperate Shipping costs. Some sellers like Directron ( http://www.directron.com ) will actually join your mulitple items together and save you some money in shipping. Newegg does not do this, so you end up paying seperate shipping charges are your order of Ram, Case Sticker,and Case fan. Easily $20 instead of the combined weight/size that should be $6 bucks. Additionally, Since I'm not too far away from Newegg.com's warehouse I would surely not mind driving up there to buy my 19"monitor, server-case and avoid the epic shipping charges on those. However Newegg does not allow such. And yes I did add that to Newegg's "Wish List" section of their website.
