    A typical Bill Clinton response!

  2. Re:Someone tried this with me once... kind of. on $1.5 Million Bar-code Scheme Bilks Wal-Mart Stores · · Score: 1

    "And yes, I have worked retail, and no, I do not shoplift. If I want it, I buy it. If i can't afford it honestly, I wait until I can. What a concept !" But a lot of people don't think that way. I don't want to pay higher prices because the store wasn't watching for thieves.

    You on the other hand, are such a genius that you would rather pay more for the same item - right?

  4. Re:Not a bad idea... on ICANN Plans to Charge Fees to .net Domain Owners · · Score: 1

    What do you mean - for free? They pay for registration like anyone else. Once they pay for it, it's their business what they do with it.If I want to point my domain to a black page, it's my business.

  5. Re:Just like the FCC Line Fee on ICANN Plans to Charge Fees to .net Domain Owners · · Score: 0, Troll

    That has to be the most stupid statement I have ever seen. When you are a business and selling a product, of course you are going to price and pass on any costs of doing business. And most of those taxes on the phone bill are placed there by your politicians.

  6. Re:They JUST added a .25 fee! on ICANN Plans to Charge Fees to .net Domain Owners · · Score: 1

    They just openly listed the fee in the invoice. Other registrars just don't break out the extra fee. You think they are the only ones paying the fee?

  7. Re:Squatting on 66.3 Million Domain Names Registered · · Score: 1

    Thats kind of sneaky - I wonder why the 60 day rule? A transfer shouldn't take very long at all - a matter of hours, a couple of days at most?

  8. Re:Squatting on 66.3 Million Domain Names Registered · · Score: 1

    How did they steal it? Did you let it expire, or did they force you at gunpoint to transfer it to them?

  9. Re:Its funny how the left is against Nuclear Power on Could Nuclear Power Wean the U.S. From Oil? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    In other words, you (and everyone who agrees with you) make a reasoned analysis while everyone else who disagrees uses irrational belief systems.

  10. Re:It would make perfect sense and it would kill I on Google-branded Firefox? · · Score: 1

    I would then just use a different search engine. What is the big deal?

  11. Re:Walmart is not a monopoly on Wal-Mart Squeezing Record Labels to Cut CD Prices · · Score: 1

    I can't afford to pay for my groceries at the well stocked - highly paid grocer. They are usually very clean and very empty of shoppers. I go where the prices are lower.

  12. Re:My eyes are filling with tears for the labels.. on Wal-Mart Squeezing Record Labels to Cut CD Prices · · Score: 3, Funny

    Well, your not doing a very good job of discouraging people from shopping there. It's always busy when I shop there ;)

  13. Re:My eyes are filling with tears for the labels.. on Wal-Mart Squeezing Record Labels to Cut CD Prices · · Score: 2

    Who goes to Walmart for High-End items? It's the low price on low-end items that brings people in.

    "But what we haven't established is that it is wrong, and there are plenty of laws that punish people for things that are not wrong, like marijuana use." Since when is marijuana use not wrong?(in the USA)

  19. Re:Nope - back to IE on Get Rid of Internet Explorer - Browse Happy! · · Score: 1

    I tried firefox for a month. Didn't like the pages that were incompatable & didn't work right when launching from Start->Favorites. When it comes out with version 1.10 or so, maybe I will try it again. I will say that it is the only non-IE browser that I didn't hate from the get go.

    Just like the freedom-loving taliban did. Oppressing women, killing infidels, killing people who don't stay in line.
