All mainstream media outlets are giant dinosaurs too stupid to realize they're already dead. There's virtually nothing good on television anyway; ad revenues are plummeting as consumers have no more money to spend, and anybody savvy just uses BitTorrent anyway.
So, where will the stuff on BitTorrent come from once the dinosaurs realize they're dead because the ad revenues are gone and stop producing content?
Yeah, but what about second-hand cell phone usage? If the person in the room with you or in the car with you is using a cell phone, does it increase your chance of brain tumors?
OK, OK, I'm not totally serious with this (it's more a riff on the whole second-hand smoke issue), but still...
Since he's an independant webmaster, he should have a contract or support agreement with his clients and all of that should be spelled out so that everyone knows what to expect - if the contract says he's available 40 hours a week within specific hours, then that's when he should be available. If his clients want more support than that, then the contract or agreement should specify what that additional support costs.
Support requirements really aren't given the priority they need... When my boss came to me to get my opinion on trying to commercialize some of the apps I had developed for internal use, my first question was "How are we going to provide support?" She didn't have an answer and the apps weren't commercialized.
Depending on how you reconcile the two, you may not get an actual black hole. (You will get something that behaves quite similarly, but not exactly the same.)
A really, really dark brown hole?
Hmmm... Maybe I need to change my sig for this post!
I've also been berated for leaving the toilet seat in the wrong configuration.
I've never understood why women want the seat left down. If you think about it, it's in their best interest to put the seat down when they go into the toilet and put it back up when they're done. That way, they don't run the risk of falling in due to sitting while the seat is up and they don't have to worry about us guys getting the seat wet since it won't get wet in the raised position.
Unfortunately, I've found that even the most logical female will refuse to follow this logic...
Seriously, people, anyone who has read comic books knows that strange scientific experiments involving lasers, quantum mechanics and viruses can only lead to an acute case of superheroitis.
As long as it doesn't lead to an acute case of superhalitosis!
Enjoy it while you can... The powers that be will see that one non-techie made a good manager of techies and assume that any non-techie will be a good manager - then you'll get a non-techie who thinks he understands techie issues, doesn't believe anything you say, and assumes that all techies are interchangible. Next step is out-sourcing your job; since all techies are interchangable, you'll be traded for someone who's a semi-techie willing try to do your job for much less money. And the boss won't understand that semi-techie != techie.

Martian kimchi!

Seriously though, I had a suspicion 10 years ago when I took it, I couldn't see any difference either.
So it affected your vision?
The only complaint I have with Fox is the whole "Fair and Balanced" line. They aren't balanced, and that's okay - they should own up to it.
So, you agree that they're unbalanced?

Were any cats harmed in the running of the programs?
I spit at their attempt to get my DNA! Oh, wait...

Pictures or it didn't happ... Oh, wait...
(I think I'll go wash my mind out with a good Vodka at this point)
Pot works better.
T-Fal or Calphalon?

Now there's something you could sell tickets to!
Hmmm... Sort of a "value removed tax" instead of a "value added tax." I like it!
I'll bet his password is "Duh!".
What's the TPL (thrust per lawsuit) against a given gravitational current
DPL (Disgust Per Lawsuit) is even more powerful!
Well, that just stinks!

I guess dandruff negatively affects efficiency of these...

Try to realise that everyone in the world does not speak English, play baseball, use Fahrenheit....
Ah, but they should!
But what if Skynet turns out to be made from gray goo?
What do they call Foodbanks in Sweden?
Fuudenbanks?
