  1. Re:Not that hard on Star Cooler Than Venus Found · · Score: 1

    I always thought the Sun was much cooler, too.

    Venus just sits there, and greenhouse collects heat, while the Sun is essentially this ginormous H-bomb!
    Come on, which is cooler? A bomb, or a passive collector of heat?

    Oh, well that's all right then.

  3. Re:Least it's not the Canadian Hate Crimes Commiss on Blogger Subpoenaed for Criticizing Trial Lawyers · · Score: 1

    Boeing isn't headquartered in Seattle any more. They moved the HQ to Chicago in 2001. So that would be a huge miss, not a near miss.

    Mr. Tortoise? Is that you? Now that you've messed up Mr. Crab's hi-fis, you've decided to screw up his rockets too?

    That's nice. What do you do during the day when you're both at work?

    I'm lucky. One day the gardener left the gate open. When I came home, I found the dog on the front lawn, waiting for me to let him into the house. He could have gone wandering around and gotten lost or hit.

    Every cloud has a silver lining...

    If this ruling holds, start suing everyone who gives your info to marketers, on the grounds that they're violating your "Right to Publicity".

    Doesn't a BD player also require an internet connection (got to be able to revoke the keys that the Evil Content Pirates(tm) have broken).
