If it wasn't for youtube hosting Japanese content, I wouldn't of had been exposed to Hard Gay! Wait a minute... But really, the shows that air in Japan are some of the best milk exploding out of your nose comedy I have ever seen. http://youtube.com/results?search_query=hard+gay
I'm pretty sure Stephen King tried to warm us all about this some time ago. Was there a mysterious green cloud hovering above the earth?? Who made who!!!?? Who made you!?? I hope that when the machines take over that ACDC provides the soundtrack of our impending demise.
One problem... who wants to live in Regina with its -40 to 50 degree celcius winters! I'm good here in Ottawa with ~-30 thank you very much!:) And by the way, I work for the Feds and I think I work in a very relaxed office environment. I put my 40 hrs a week in, make a pretty good salary, have my cool sports car and live in a decent apartment. (still young... no house yet) sure the tax man gouges me because I live iN quebec and work in Ontario (over 8000$ in taxes this year), but its the price to pay living in the land of free health care, free flowing maple syryp and enough beaver to shake a stick at.. and no I am not talking about the animals;)
That is too funny. I did this sort of thing a few months ago to some guy who tried to scam me. I send him a fake photo, my address as the Canadian Prime Minister, fake name, a phone number which connected him to Pizza Pizza. He emailed me back saying he couldn't reach me at the number provided! I pulled him along for a couple of months. I finally told him who I was, and that I notified system admins from Briton and Ireland that some scamster was useing their systems for fraud. They kindly blocked his IP for me.
How else am I to get my supply of Viagra and learn about penile enlargement you insensitive clod!? ooohhhh.... I have been pre-approved for a credit card!

CONGRESSMAN: Wait a second, I want to tack on a rider to that bill - $30 million of taxpayer money to support the perverted arts.
SPEAKER: All in favor of the amended Space Exploration slash-pervert bill?
FLOOR: Boo!
SPEAKER: Bill defeated!
You laugh, but where I work there is actually an area called "Network Engineering Research and Development Section". Or as we IT Security types in my section call them... NERDS.
Who holds back the electric car? Who makes Steve Guttenburg a star!? We do!!! We do!! Seems like the head honcho over at GM is a Stonecutter.. or a member of No Homers.
When I ws in highschool about 6 years ago now, nerds were not unpopular because we had what I would like to call hybrid nerds. I myself was smart and liked computers and technology just like the rest of the/. crowd here, but instead of just burying my head in books and learning about the wonders of the internet I joined sports teams, was in the most popular group in school, and carried on in life with my head up high. Our group had 2 smart people/jocks, which included myself. A deranged soon to be serial killer, a pervert, an even bigger pervert, and a hockey player who is now an electronics technologist. We all got along because we had a common thread that we all enjoyed. Partying. I think that all nerds, jocks, preppy boys, whatever are all the same at the end of the day, because when it comes down to the line, we all throw up after drinking a few 2-4's of good Canadian beer. Look at the time... (7:42am), gotta get my first one of the day in...
yeah it's a lot of wasted time, but still not as much time wasted than the many, many man years spent on developing an MS product.... But really though, spam isn't that bad. If people would just follow some simple guidelines it wouldn't be so bad. A) don't give out your personal address. If you wanna sign up for something at whatevernewsletter.com, just use an alternate account and set up a rule there to forward it to your real account. B) There are some free spam filters out there, try using them and you will be surprised how it cuts it down to managable numbers... C) If you don't want spam, just don't use email, easy as that. There are bad sides to everything, we just have to live through them.
Why did I even try clicking on the link this early in the game? I'll have to wait till tomorrow after the/.'ing is over.... Slashdot.org: Yesterdays News, Today! And Todays news Tomorrow...
Why go out and buy Adobe Acrobat to create PDF files? I'm using Corel WordPerfect 9 with its built in Export to PDF capabilities. Sure, I cannot edit any existing PDF files that I didn't create, but it still gets the job done at a lower cost, and I have an Office Suite to boot... But I agree, if two corporations slug it out and create different options for me, great. How many options/safety features, luxury items have become stock options due to the auto industry duking it out year after year? Just imagine if there was only one auto maker in the world. We would all be driving sub-safe,one color, overly expensive pieces of crap. I say bring it on M$, if it means savings and advancement in virtual "universal" document technology.
It snows up in Canada 365 days a year. It's true, it's true...
Today I am a proud Canadian as we all unite, and together with the processing power of our 26 Commodore 64's, are able to solve a problem in a day that would of taken 6 years to calculate. How many times over does Canadian beer have in alcohol content over American beer? (we all know the answer but we just want to double check..) So take off you hoser, eh! Golden...
The reason why they can't open the door is because it is a giant block of stone that weighs more than what the little rover can handle. Plus it was dropped from above the shaft, and features a couple of (iron?) pegs that acts as a one way lock. I thought that on their last expedition they said that they were quite certain that a chamber was on the other side. Guess they were wrong. As another poster stated, why not just dig in from the outside if they are so hellbent on knowing whats on the other side. All in all, this is still pertty cool, as the first expedition up the shaft was the inspiration for me to design and build a little PC controlled version of Upuaut III. (the name of the robot). It had most of the features of the original, at 1000 times less the cost...
Is this why they killed off the Camaro and Trans Am?? To put more money into damn fuel cell technology?? I know that fuel cells are cleaner, will do my dishes, give me a foot rub and save the world, but I will drive my 2002 WS6 Trans Am anyday before I drive a car powered by fuel cells... Unless it comes with Trans Am panels... I don't think that we are ready for fuel cells yet, we should wait till our fossil fuels are depleted, and the ozone is non-existant until we decide to sit down and think of a solution... and fast. Isn't that what happened with Y2K???
