or the I Tappa Keg fraternal initiation rites, where you must down a 6-pack in one bongload and just when you get to the finish they start adding tequila.
Guaranteed puke-fest. Be sure to keep the poison control center on speed-dial, because someone is guaranteed to see.4 BAC that night.
I was there in '87, during "The P-Week to End All P-Weeks". I distinctly remember seeing a San Jose police cruiser (two of them, actually) supporting a crowd sweep. Shortly after that a tear gas cannister rolled between my feet and I had to hastily depart the scene.
Halloween in Isla Vista was a blast that year, too.
Ahh.. the days of drinking your homework away at Bear-Hole.
The "no games" policy should be followed by removal of said games from all systems, followed by removal of local administrator access for users, followed by group policy enforced at the PDC.
Come to think of it, you should already have the last two in place to begin with.
News to me, and apparently quite a few others, if you read some of the parallel responses. It sounds like you have a font problem outside of browser rendering. What were you saying about an oral-podiatric condition?

This is a brand-new Debian 3.0 installation on a P3-500mhz IBM 390X laptop. The usage shot to 45 before the shell crashed, leaving my system temporarily slow but otherwise unaffected.
There are whole towns in Michoacan that are built of not much more than sticks. They're not much for privacy, but the breeze goes right through (a must for life in that area). If a Chubasco comes through, you just pick the sticks up, jam them back into the dirt, slap the tin siding back up as your roof, and you've rebuilt your house in a day.
The concrete dwellings down there don't fare nearly as well.
Or drop them in the ocean near my house and make a nice custom-tailored reef. I'd prefer a right-hand break; the southern sand-flow will set up nicely in one or two seasons and then I won't have to go hunt down elusive sandbars.
Having once had the temerity to say many years ago "who the hell needs a graphical user interface?" I can safely say that a taskbar and a start menu is an excellent interface and a way to keep your desktops tidy.
There is actually a project in a major automaker to do a Wi-Fi sort of thing just like this. Not only can the cars exchange information regarding traffic patterns and other "social alerts", but the car would also be able to do a complete diagnostic dump upon driving into your mechanic's garage bay.
I was working for attorneys when they were making the switch from WordStar to WordPerfect, and then to WordPerfect 5. WordPerfect was (for the time) an absolute pleasure to use, although you really needed that little template sheet placed over the top of your function keys.
WordPerfect was so cool that I used its macro functionality to build a bill-production application for one bankruptcy attorney for whom I once worked. The bills submitted to the judge at the end of the bankruptcy proceeding were forced to conform to a certain style; I created this little "app" so that the secretaries could just do data-entry from the attorneys' hand-written billing notes and automagically out of the HP LaserJet II and III would pop a court-approved billing form. This was part of a whole suite of apps I started doing this way to produce ready-made pleadings and whatnot; great way to save on letterhead for some of the smaller attorneys I knew in the San Jose area.
5 years later I checked back in with that bankruptcy attorney and his office was still using the app!

Jesus.. that looks like the pile of crap they pulled out the former-defense-contractor building one of my (former) companies moved into back in 1996. We used a Lucent Definity system that did pretty much the same thing, but wasn't much bigger than a small footlocker (per chassis, total of four stacked). The Definity was also simple to operate versus the nightmare of operating this Rolm behemoth.
You weren't kidding about needing an 18-wheeler to take it away; it sat on our loading dock for three months before the hauler finally showed up.
I just enjoy coping with my boner every time they show full-body shots of Tricia Helfer.
That, and my wife is a blonde (who looks quite similar to Ms. Helfer, IMHO). She doesn't watch the show, but is wondering why I've been so much more "amorous" these past few weeks...
And I use them all the time for buying doohickies under $100 or so. Everything else requires a purchase request in order to maintain a documented chain of purchasing authority and to deliberately slow the process down so that one can consider "Is This Thing Really Necessary?".
I set up my company that way, and I'm bound by it myself.
Since I engaged in the level of argumentation you put forth and as become the hallmark of the NeoCons and their apologists (the "black-and-white" style of argumentation), I fail to see how you can condemn me.
On the issue of women voting in Afghanistan and Iraq, it was just today that regional voting occurred in Saudi Arabia for the first time in 40+ years. And yet no women were allowed to participate. Over the past four years I have never witnessed Dubya ONCE put any pressure whatsoever on our friends in Saudi Arabia to promote women's rights (or even democracy in general).
Moreover, your assertion that female castration is a universal practice among (and limited to) Islam is utter nonsense, and such ludicrous (yet emotional) arguments are better suited towards swaying ignorant people who already agree with you. To the rest of us, it is merely repulsive. Perhaps I should say 100 "Hail Trotsky's" and immediately enlist for duty in Iraq?
Let's rise out of the minutiae a moment to realize that the argument I'm making is that Bush is a proven hypocrite, and that hailing him for "upholding women's rights" as an excuse-du-jour for his foreign policy of hegemony without exposing his continued support for regimes who stifle women's rights is disingenuous at best.
