  1. Re:work is for work... on Social Networking: The New Workplace Smoke Break · · Score: 1

    But then my job would suffer because those 6 minutes per hour he plays games, he gets his latest gadget greasy. Then he brings it to me for cleaning. How can I charge him $150 per week to clean it if he doesn't play?

    And if you are paying $75 an hour to have your car serviced you are getting fleeced son.

    You can block them and we do. We have several throughout our building to block cell phones, it's quite effective too.

  3. Re:Yes, it will raise prices on U.S. Imposes Tariffs On Chinese Solar Cells · · Score: 1

    I'd be more inclined to think it's more about keeping people from US traditional power more-so than it's hurting American solar retailers. If it can be had for a fraction what's to keep people from jumping off the grid to solar. Right now the huge investment is really what's keeping me from going solar. While I wouldn't totally disconnect from the grid, I could power at least 75% of my household items easily off solar if it weren't due to the initial $10k - $15k start up. I'd still run things like heat and cooling off the power companies grid along with washing machine and dryer. The savings there would be huge alone.

    This is all still based on earth bound life as a model for other life in the universe. Fact is we simply don't know.

    How did this score -1? Seriously, I think it's a very valid point. Now if the ad in question was for say Jose Quervo I could see that.

  6. Re:It's stupid to compare to Facebook's profit on Facebook IPO Stumbles Out of the Gate · · Score: 1

    What I'd like to know is why should I invest in this stock. I mean sure it's hot now, but what about when the next big social networking site pops up and everyone jumps ship to the new one. Remember Friendster? How about MySpace? Giving the internets short attention span when it comes to social networking sites I see no real future in investing my money to buy any shares.

    I'm all for that, abolish the TSA as I'm pretty sure air travel is no safer today then 10 years ago.

    I just want to know if the brain stem keeps going with only the base instincts intact and if it can be transmitted through bites, or if I'm just worrying too much.

    All I know is I want a t-shirt now that says "Money Shots Support Terrorism!"

  21. Re:Short summary on Scientific Jigsaw Puzzle: Fitting the Pieces of the Low-Level Radiation Debate · · Score: 1

    This actually makes no sense though, well it does and doesn't. It does in the sense that the model is flawed as in the average lei person may not now that holding uranium for 5 minutes is less harmful than sleeping 10 ft away from it for a week. It doesn't in the sense that the average lei person doesn't really care. When in their lifetime are they going to be picking up uranium for 5 seconds much less 5 minutes, and if they are sleeping 10 ft away from it, I'd wager they don't know it.

    If you have Verizon tune to channel 229 M-Net take a look at what passes for music. It's like bad 80's pop modernized.

    Are you trolling or serious? You are attacking American pop bands yet you have L'arc N Ciel, 2 NE 1 and so many other poppy tween bands that I can not list them all. Seriously I think Asians have taken pop music to a whole new level of stupid.

    Don't get me wrong I'm in no way against Asian entertainment. I love Korean dramas, they have something that American tv lacks, depth and plot not to mention good acting.

    I'm just saying when the country you live in pumps out 2012 versions of 80's boy bands, I'd say your music industry or the consumers rather have a problem. The music industry just puts out what sells.
