Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale,
A tale of a guy who's rich
Who flew off in a small airplane
Expecting not a hitch
The mate was a mighty flying man,
His exploits were all right.
Steve Fossett he let out that day
For a three hour flight, a three hour flight.
The weather started getting rough,
His flying ship was tossed,
He didn't pack his chute that day
His lunch it would be tossed, his lunch it would be tossed
The plane set down on the hot flat ground of this uncharted desert isle
With Fossett
Is he vulture stew,
A millionaire for his life,
All that money
Will not save him
Here on Fossett's Isle.
Hilarious...the parent is modded as "Informative"...like some person with mod points was reading through the posts, saw that one, and thought "Hm, I didn't know the BSD chix weighed in at 250. Next time I see h0tti3BSDbab3 online, I'll know not to flirt with her anymore, because I like my women thin".
Actually I live in Peoria, and can guarantee you, the 6 o'clock news will be more focused on such pressing issues as local hog farm stench, an area tornado, squabbles in the city council, or a four minute review of Aunt Edna's Down Home Cafe.

This seems to be a very common complaint about wireless phone, and one of the main reasons I haven't migrated to it. Seems like every person I ask says their plans' customer service stinks, but they've heard such-and-such has a good system. I'll then find someone who is on said system, and they'll tell me that theirs stinks, but they've heard another system is good. Repeat the process ad nauseum.
What I'm wondering is, is the service in the industry really this awful, or is it a "grass is greener" syndrome? Seems to me that it's the perfect opportunity for a smaller wireless company to *gasp* invest in non-outsourced, quality customer care representatives. Word of mouth will spread, and theoretically, people will say "Yes, I like the customer service on this plan" instead of referring you to another company. This will in turn lead to increased customer base, increased satisfaction, and most importantly increased profits.
Of course, then there's still that pesky reception issue to deal with...
Great advice, if you want to be a cripple by the time you are 40 years old.
If you REALLY want to get in shape, and be able to walk past your 50th birthday, take up swimming or cycling.
According to the parent poster, if you're a runner, you won't be able to walk past your 50th birthday, since you'll be a cripple after you turn 40. Based on the links I provided, there are apparently those who do not turn into cripples at 40 and continue to walk/run at 50 (quite well, I might add). Thus, "the picture" in question is that the parent post was completely invalid, due to its lack of evidence, which I provided.
Yes, tell this to the runners in my area kicking the 100 mile trail runs.
Or better yet, tell that to the 61 year old who runs the ~6 minute mile for 5ks and 4 milers. I could post more examples, but I think you get the picture.

This is the first time I've purposely clicked a link to view spam.
Dec 1, 1964 specifically. Apparently Michael Chertoff has a close friend/relative born on Nov 30, 1964.
Here's to hoping it'll only be used for peaceful purposes...

Wait a minute...there's some space dust on this post...aha! Cooking forty engineers!
Personally I think Fred Flintstone would be a better choice...

Sorry, can't help myself... Body blow, body blow! Left, left! Body blow, body blow! Knockout!

Consarnit, I won't care until they start measuring it in furlongs per fortnight or hogsheads to the barrel!
Dang it! I'd been doing so well...I barely understood most of these, and then aiabx's comes along, and sets my.geekstatus back to 1.
