no, you ARE a twat if you drive a 4x4. unless, of course, you use it for it's intended purpose (not dropping the kids off at school, doing the shopping, etc)
i think, most importantly, why people have been negative about the segway is that you look like a twat when you're riding it. no amount of innovation can detract from the fact that you look like a twat when you ride it.
could of increased
I know I'm being picky but this is a little pet hate of mine. It's, "could have increased." The use of "of" instead of "have" really irritates me (along with people who say, "paradigm" and "moreish").
my favourite was the cutout of the spaceship and the camera panning left or right or zooming in or out to simulate motion. fantastic!
you're right, i will be utilising the off button if/when it comes on tv.
(i wonder if they'll still be dressing like extras from miami vice?)
a battlestar galactica remake!!!
blake's seven was an awful tv programme. why the hell are they doing it? what other bad bbc programmes from the 80s are going to be made next? eldorado? triangle? juliet bravo?
a couple of years ago some friends and i bumpled into the guy that played blake in a bar in manchester. he was still upset about that show!
"maybe the prices of image editing applications will drop slightly when corporations don't have to pay fees to Unisys."
or maybe the corporations will keep their prices the same and increase their profit margin at the same time.
i understand theology more than most so don't accuse me ignorance. but you're right, i don't appreciate it. but what's to appreciate? i admit religion once had its place and was perhaps essential if humans were to progress. but that time was a long time ago. we don't need fairy tales. and we certainly don't need the pain and anguish that religion inflicts on millions of people each day (do i really need to talk of the intifada in the middle east, bush and his islamophobic chrisitian fundamentalist views, the catholic church denying women contraception, sharia law in saudi arabia, the holocaust?)
do you really believe there is an omnipotent, omnipresent being 'out there'? well, hei's not been very potent for a long time and his present has been sorely lacking for just as long. if so i think it's you who is ignorant.
"Hugh Ross reveals exciting new geophysical evidence for Godâ(TM)s carefully orchestrated activity during the Earthâ(TM)s early formation to prepare our planet for the first life."
this has got to be a joke, right? what evidence has god left? his signature? 'God was here' spray painted on a rock somewhere?
replace 'God' in the quote above with 'our alien masters' and it makes more sense.
banning for explicit crapness would have been a better reason. or explicit waste of time. or explicit waste of money. or explicit waste of energy. or...
this is more modern variant of a game that has been played in the UK and no doubt other countries for decades. 'Post Boxes' are hidden around the UK containing stamps plus other souvenirs and map references to other 'Post Boxes.' Rather than use GPS participants use a good old fashioned map and compass.

now there's a show that needs a remake. that scared the hell out of me when i was a little one.

wouldn't it be cheaper, quicker and simpler if china, india and the usa just had a good old-fashioned pissing contest instead?

it sounds like some dreadful, wishy-washy Spielberg project not a passenger jet. I expect macho airplane names.

and persecute your neighbour because he thinks/feels/believes differently to you (does that mean apple users would have been burnt as witches?).

and when you're really dumb you invent religion.
no, i won't believe that twaddle.
apparently schools in georgia have decided to use the biblical value of pi as well as teach creationism.

an unfortunate comment on today's islamic society? get real you racist fuck!

only if it's in the interests of US business.
but if the USA and UK hadn't declared an illegal preemptive war against Iraq then Baghdad would look like the city it was and not the city it is now

At any point does the article say the maybe people don't want one because they don't want to look like a prick?
