Nice story, except Edmonton isnt anywhere near the ocean. You would have to be hunting moose, not sea lions, and using moose fat for candles, and dont forget the hand spun moose fur wicks.;)
The only time i watched the shopping channel was when they were selling star trek merchandise with John de Lancie on the show. He was making fun of all the products. Unfortunately i don't think they ever had him back again. With Ala Carte would we be paid for having the shopping channel? Can we have a plan with only shopping channels and get a check in the mail each month?:D
The atom processor dosn't have the performance of a 1.5Ghz Pentium M. It has the equivalent performance in benchmarks of a 1.2Ghz P3 processor (circa early 2001) or a core2 with only one core running at about 750Mhz, or a 500Mhz Core 2 Duo. comparing Mhz between different processors is often like comparing apples to oranges.
I had somthing similar happen with sprint, they told me I had downloaded $300 worth of phone applications while I was in denver. I have never in my life been anywhere west of the mississippi river. Took about 12 hours on the phone with them to get it resolved. Im much happier with verizon.
I had longer uptimes that that with windows ME! I once had a 63 day uptime with windows ME (stupid updates making me restart. grrrr:P) Though I did copy over some stuff from windows 98 to use in place of the default ME programs, and used a third party memory manager.
My grandmother gave her old computer to my uncle and bought a new one because it was "full". By "Full" - her email inbox was full. My uncle got a 2 year old computer for free.
Ive actually rickrolled those guys calling about the warrenty thing (as well as making several complaints to the FCC about them). I would hit 1 to speak to someone when they called, and placed the phone next to a speaker with "never going to give you up" playing. (and those of you who say i should just tell them to remove me, i did, many times and they would just hang up on me and not remove me) Anyway i hope the government throws the book at them, or places them in stocks and let the public throw books at them.
No the water wings don't work. You need to wear life vests or other DEUTSCH LIFEGUARD APPROVED flotation device when having soup. Water wings are not approved.
My proposed "vasectomies for food" program is clearly superior to this. In overpopulated countries people get a free vasectomy, and they get food to eat. Those who don't get a vasectomy are on their own. Women instead of getting a vasectomy will get dental implants in a certain part of their body to ensure anyone they copulate with never reproduces again. This will simultaneously reduce hunger, overpopulation, and rape in third world countries.
at.12% monthly increase it would reach 50% share in 2042-2045 at.02% it would reach it in 2200-2220 But these calculations are all meaningless because there are too many variables that can and will change the rate of deployment.
Blatant Lie. In one of their own announcements here in Rochester when they announced the caps they stated 30% use less than 5GB a month. 5GB*12months = 60GB/year. 30% of people use 60GB a year or less. That means 70% use more than 60GB a year. Because of that, its not possible that >50% are using less than 44GB a year.
If steam corrupts on me, or I have a hard drive die, or i get a new computer, I can use 55GB in one DAY just redownloading my games on steam (Not worth backing up what can easily be reacquired) Though Ive never gotten a call or anything from time warner about my usage though, however im in an area where there are very few time warner subscribers (inner city where most people have DSL because its cheaper unless you have to cancel $40 a month less for their 3 in 1 package service, but set up costs are $140 higher, and the cancellation fee if you cancel before 2 years is $580!) I easily get my full speed even during peak hours (15Mbps/1Mbps with a speed boost going up to 25Mbps, and I do actually see this with downloads.)
If your order was lost while in transit, please contact Customer Service within 7 business days of not receiving your order.
Which day would I not have received it on?
Anyway Ive never had a problem with either newegg or tiger Direct, though i tend to order from newegg more than TD as TD tends to be more expensive most of the time.
I earned this achevement by using only words in Todays Wall Street Journal to get 5 words in a row in Buzzword Bingo! As a reward I have recieved a 1 week free trial of Wall street journal, as well as a coupon for 50% off a 3 month subscription! As an added bonus of one word being in a coca-cola article, I also get a 25 cent off coupon for a 2 liter of coca-cola! I can't wait to play again tomorrow!
The one that did the best was only 330cm in diameter the blades are half as long. diameter does not equal radius, even in german. Also the test results, if true, the best windmill would power 75% of the electric needs of the building where im living (3 apartments)
Its because Earthlink uses TW cable network in some places to reach the end user. Its like electric bills where you can choose many providers but the same company provides delivery and charges you for delivery seperately.
I just got off the phone with Time Warner (I live in Rochester NY,) My Netflix streaming alone uses about 50-90GB/month right now, and on tip of that I'm an online gamer (If I have to reinstall steam and the steam games, that's 35GB right there) According to Time Warner's comment, they are currently considering using Rochester as a test market but haven't committed to it yet. If this is true, or they are just trying to save face, or if the person I talked to didn't know about it yet, I have no idea.

Do you think he or she would dare step aboard?
yes

Just get a new case for it.

They are also faking their caller ID. Ive gotten calls from them that appear to from people other than who they say they are.

Maybe he was stuck on a raft in the ocean with nothing to drink but his urine and a cup of mcdonalds coffee? personally id go for the urine first.
yea, anyone could use the past presidential administration as prior art.

A person's likeness, being a natural trait and not the design of any human, doesn't meet the requirement.
What about people that have had plastic surgery?
