that is exactly the parent's point. If its stab resistant how can it also be sewable. Since sewing is essentially stabbing a piece of cloth with a needle that has some thread going through it.
I'd kill for $20 an hour, and I live in CA, Bay Area.
Admittedly though, I got hired as a programmer, post dotcom, no degree, and did almost zero programming and a lot of hardware troubleshooting so I consider myself lucky.
Yes, taking a camcorder into a movie theater is illegal, but a year in jail? Come on. How can you justify a year of jail time for a non-violent crime?
Let me put this into perspective. The average charge for involuntary manslaughter, meaning unintentionally causing the death of another individual through gross negligence is 1-2 years. So hyperthetically if you're caught by security video taping a movie and in the process of trying to arrest you in the movie theater the guard slips on your soda, breaks his neck and dies, you will probably serve more time for the videotaping charge than for causing the death of the security guard. That seem right to you? Honestly?
There are degrees to criminal acitivty. This is why we have a criminal justice system. Now anyone with enough money can pervert the law to their own interests.
so beg your users for money. I can point to a number of sites that exist soley on user donations. I personally wouldn't frequent a site that bombards me with pop-ups and if you have users that endure it I'm sure they be willing to float you some dough every now and then if they like your content so much.
Besides compared to what you would get sued for for sharing an MP3 or what the fine would be for DOSing the NY Times for 15 minutes, I consider that pretty reasonable.
A few on the streets have these diaganol crossing things. Apparently this was put in place because the Chinese immigrants would do it anyway (some Chinese cities are setup like that, I guess). Another interesting tidbit, the street signs are written in both English and Chinese.
Hinduism & Buddhism. The total effect of a person's actions and conduct during the successive phases of the person's existence, regarded as determining the person's destiny.
So explain to me how my speeding (so I could make the light, incidently) and then having the light sddenly chance on me so I run a red one, amount to karma being a bitch?
I swear to god I ran this stoplight two nights ago. I thought it changed fast. Those bastards. Now I have three hundred dollar moving violation. well I'm defintely fighting it now.
Just ask any woman whether she'd rather play with a cut or an un-cut penis. I'm telling you that apart from a few fetishists they all say they prefer the cut one.
I've been hearing this all my adult life, but not once has a woman said this to me personally. I'll keep my foreskin thank You.
you my friend oput too much stock in the human race.
I was living in NY when they first rolled out the Metrocard vending machines. Its amazing how long it took the average person over the age of 35 or so to get a card. There were people with stacks of these cards because they couldn't figure out how to renew an old one.
Maybe in about 4 decades when the vast majority of society is technically adept, but by then they'd probably come up with something new that dumbfounds us oldtimers. As it I refuse to send or reply to cellphone text messages. I don't need another language of shortcut keys taking up valuable brain space.

chemistry is a starnge and wonderous thing. One electron on a chlorine molecule stands between it possibly giving you cancer.

My next best alternative is probaly Starbucks.
but I'd be more concerned had this bill popped up in, say, California.
FYI, bud.
Now I can't belive any in congress is that stupid. I could just see Silicon Valley picking up en masse and moving across the border to Nevada.

I guess its true. There's always a bigger fish.
God Lord, did I just quote "The Phantom Menace" ?
yeah I defintely think I'll let my job buy me this book...
Considering it boils at 42 C, I think not....

geez and I though $.99 for System of a Down's 46 second song (rather strangely titled "36") was crazy...

of course it my fault. but this is America. I won't be paying for that ticket.

are you kidding me? After all those trees Saruman cut down and the subjication and degradation of the Middle Earth Orc/Orge/Troll population...

I can't think of a single nation qualified to run the Human Rights committee...well maybe the Swiss...
. ROFL! Dude trademark that. That sounds like a perfect Daily Show segment title.
I wonder if he listens to Minor Threat?
Its sounds like something out of The Book of the Sub-Genius.
But John A vs the porn industry; John A doesn't have a chance.
Porn like weeds has its roots deep and will surface and thrive in any scrap of dirt, through the tiniest of cracks.
So I say let Johhny Boy fight his porn war, maybe that'll distract him from doing some real damage.
feels good.
