I have Norton2006 on my system (true, not the whole SystemWorks package, but it does what I need), and the only problem I have with it, is that I cannot for the life of me get it to recognize my wireless connection for LiveUpdate to work *at all*. It claims to use the "same settings as IE and Outlook", but these (and all my other programs that connect to the 'net) work fine w/o a "traditional" internet connection. I swear, I spent a full day toying with InternetConnections in the control panel and nothing seems to trick Norton into thinking that my working network connection is how to connect to the net to no avail. Other than this "feature", it works well enough for me.
Yeah, but the morons would probably just crash-land on pre-historic Earth, and pollute the gene-pool from the start and we'd all end up drooling over Bambi 2 and Snow White 5: The Revenge of Doc.
Assuming you're in the US... From what I can tell, our society's attitude against sex dates back to the Puritan settlers. A tad ironic, because if I recall, those same settlers were often infected with syphilis...
At the moment, there's only two kinds. I believe that although unlikely, it wouldn't be too impossible for a large glob of liquid (one that exists as a liquid in the extreme cold of space, like methane perhaps) to hold a planet-like shape and orbit a star. Then again, I believe that our definitio of "life" is too narrow, and that we often just dismiss the possibility of non-carbon life that doesn't require H2O for energy production/use...
This is why web designers everywhere should adhere to W3C standards, so pages will break in the non-compliant IE, and move... Gah, ya know, as I was typing this, it sounded good, but what would happen in place of a great Exodus from IE to elsewhere is that John and Jane Averageuser would simply not view a site that doesn't work in their "internet"... This is not to say that I don't advocate W3C standards, but the argument falls flat when applied to reality.
Cheney, Bush and Clinton appear before the great Wizard, and are promised one request each.
"I need a new heart." Says Cheney. Poof, the wizard grants him a heart as healthy as a 20 year old.
"I think I need a new bike..." Bush says, as the others elbow him in the ribs. "I mean brain." Poof. The Wizard gives him the brain of a genius.
Clinton then approaches the Wizard, looks around and says. "So, uhm, where's Dorothy?"
While most were thinking of RoboCop, New Dominion: Tank Police is what sprang first in my mind. Meh, I was bored, feel free to mod this post down for whateverthehell reason you feel like.
He's not suggesting that they round off on the reciept, but round the taxes themselves to the nearest nickel. You do have a point that stores will no longer be able to fool people into thinking that 9.99 is a SUPER FANTASTIC deal compared to 10.00.
I think Starbucks already does. The stuff they sell is almost, but not quite, entirely unlike coffee...
(And this is the third Adam's reference that I've seen so far in this thread. Glad to know I'm not the only one to immediately start this line of thinking after seeing the headline.)
Does that mean I can break into your house and not go to jail? If you didn't make it difficult to break in, I wouldn't have been able to, and thus you wouldn't have been robbed.
Taxing me to pay for patrol cars to go by your house is unfair. It's your home, police it with your own money and don't blame me if your house isn't secure against my attacks.
And suffocation causes... what?
I believe that mild hemmoraging in the albumen of the eyes has been used to determine asphyxiation, but I might be wrong, and I'm too lazy at the moment to google it.

Perhaps, but I think that even though Geordi likes tinkering with things, he'd simply say "Screw it, use the replicator..."
Thanks for making the obligatory comments so I didn't have to and lose karma...

Why? Does Cheney need a jump start?
Very punny...

Then our father would come home and cut us in two with a knife...
I have the whole audio-book done by that narrator. It's horrible. I swear Ben Stein could have read it better.

Unfortunately, 'Share and Enjoy' will get you sued by the record companies.
Too bad all those nice paintings and poems will go with us though.
:P
Yeah, Dogs Playing Poker and that infamous Man from Nantucket, such a loss.

That's why ya make sure you have a cheese sandwhich so the dog will ignore your fleet.
Let's see how many people get this obscure variation on this already somewhat obscure reference...
Unless I'm mistaken, shouldn't they be called 'raths' now?

...but keeps missing what it's falling towards... That is, of course, the art, or rather the knack, to learning how to fly...
