Otherwise known as the Golden Rule:
Them what has the gold, makes the rules.
Chicago -- where being dead is no impediment to voting!!!!
I got my mother a T-shirt to wear on election day: "I'm from Chicago -- TWO BALLOTS PLEASE!!!"
Nanoscope? Ha! I'm waiting to get my picoscope!
You know what I'm talking about...
Took me forever to get over my "Titanic" hatred of DiCaprio (and no, I never saw the movie, I was totally turned off by the preteen frenzy).
But "Catch Me If You Can" turned me around. I really liked his performance there.
That's what I'm looking for. I'd change providers to whoever lets me buy my equipment outright, instead of paying for it monthly.
I've got unlimited text (I have teenagers...) so the text was not a problem.
Verizon does this. I've gotten SMS warnings that I only have NN minutes left on my plan.
Well, both used Apollo spacecraft. Heck, the word "Apollo" is in the name of the ASTP mission -- Apollo -Soyuz Test Project.
Just being nitpicky. Are you counting Skylab and ASTP as Apollo missions? Those used a Saturn 1B as well.
Only if they play "Radar Rider" during launch.
Not to mention the lack of applications, and the burden of creating all the applications from scratch
<SARCASM>That won't be a problem. This miraculous new OS will run all Windows apps. RTFS!!!</SARCASM>
Asimov already predicted what would happen if we did that.

No. It's 6000 friends. One per year.
#13 has come to pass.
No, the Enterprise has a "Crisis on Earth" detector that alters the warp field to slow down the ship for dramatic effect.
Turn in your geek card.
GP is a famous quote from "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy"

people seem to be getting more and more exited by rolling Distributions.
Yeah, rolling Distributions always make me want to leave.
phasing in higher retirement ages for SS
What would you do if your pension plan -- that you've paid into for years -- suddenly decided that you need to be older to collect?
Oh wait, that's already happened with SS.
If any company ran its pension plan the way that the US.gov runs SS, the executives responsible would be in jail.
You forgot what is the most important thing from the hotel's POV.
Significantly increased chance of lawsuit.
Surely you can't be serious!
Looks like I picked the wrong century to quit drinking!
