In Southern NH by chance? I'll house sit for ya'.
I don't smoke or drink, no pets, I keep things neat and clean up after myself, and, I'm not popular enough to throw big parties...
I'm the assistant manager of a state park during summers, so I spend at least eight hours a day outside. On sunny days I've often joked that I needed some sort of orbital shade to keep the glare out of my eyes and to keep me cool. Admittedly my idea of a giant sun glasses lens in orbit was a bit crude, but a man can dream right? Finally my dream can come true...
"And BTW, the study could EASILY be backwards. Maybe autistic children make parents move to towns with cable. It's just as likely, from the given facts."
Ah, but that's where our good friend Occam's razor comes into play.
My experience suggests that luck is more important than stable environment: I've had a 60G Seagate for about 5 years, and a 120G Seagate for about 3, no problems with either, and that's with shutting down every night and my box on nothing but a surge protector.
How much money would my workplace lose if we didn't have connectivity for an hour or even a day? None. In fact, we don't have an internet connection or even a dedicated fax line.
"why do people act like its so damned hard to shoot a gun..." Shooting a gun is not hard. Hitting your intended target (especially under the stress of a combat situation) is.
"Halo did do something very nice that every FPS game should copy. Give grenades their own controls so you can throw them with your main weapon equipped. Brilliant."
Fast action FPS games, yes, every FPS no. Throwing a grenade is a moderately complex two-handed action. Im all for fast paced arcady shooters like Halo and TFC having their own grenade key, but in a realism shooter like Americas Army or Red Orchestra requiring you to switch to grenades is perfectly reasonable.

I love Oblivion as much as the next guy, but honestly, the Spike VGA's are a damn farce.
My disclaimer was in the post title.
Can't say I feel bad for a bank robber when it turns out the teller slipped them a dye packet...
Sums it up pretty well...
Actually, it's my understanding that in most US states the age of consent is 16, not the commonly assumed 18.

Hell, they started sending me stuff at about 20.
Everybody clean between your keys. Now clean your monitor.

Sadly, I'ma have to go with "The Daily Show: Where more Americans should probably get their news."
You forgot the "Burning Libraries of Congress" measurement of energy.

The question for me is whether owning a Wii on its own is going to be a satisfying enough experience."
I know my wii brings me lots of satisfaction...
"My phone comes with opera. I don't pay for that."
Sure you do, it's just hidden in the price of the phone.
Careful Bill, keep talking like that and ABC will take your show off the air...
I'm also addicted to my car. Darned if a day goes by that I don't use it to get somewhere too far to walk.
Just because you use something often doesn't mean it's an addiction.
I prefer this one myself.
I would totally gay marry John Hodgman in Canada, though strictly for tax and insurance purposes.
No doubt this guy has made some lucky meth dealer rich enough to retire.
At least the tick shuts up occasionally...

Hooray for state parks!

Fixed it.
