Venus can look like a bright aircraft landing light coming right at you. You change course 30 degrees and it moves 30 degees, but still keeps a constant bearing - therefore STILL coming right at you. You climb or descend and it STILL lines up right at you! Then you call ATC and they don't see traffic for 100 miles in that direction. Then someone else advises you that the planet Venus is after you and you are so embarassed that you don't talk to anyone for the next hour.
If a polar bear was VERY smart, he/she would be working overtime on dating strategies that appeal to grizzly bears. That way, when the ice melts and the polar bears move to mainland Alaska, they can still get laid and their polar-grizzly offspring could exist on land perhaps.
H1B =/ Immigration.
They work at low wages for a set time and then GET SENT HOME.
If we want skilled immigrants, which we should, then we need to fix the broken green card system. Right now a European PhD scientist could die from old age waiting for that fsked system to produce a green card:(
"Some agents turn away illegal Mexicans cause they're scared of them taking jobs"
ALL the agents had better be turning away illegal Mexicans ALL the time or they need to be fired for wasting my tax money!
Besides for that, no one wants to beat up their expensive airplane and put hours on the engine driving it on the road. Airports have a clever idea - it is called the rental car - to get around this issue.
I had a MK II MR2. The MK III (Spyder) was a huge letdown. The thing had NO ROOM for ANYTHING. I could get a week's worth of groceries or luggage for my wife and I in the back of my MR2 and still have some more room in the front trunk. No way with the Spyder.
I know someone that REALLY DID THIS!
I have never laughed so hard in my life. He got tired of the 'extra special" pat down and TOOK OFF HIS PANTS and sent them through the X-Ray. it was an absolute classic:)
Women are not ambiguos at all.
They dress to expose their breasts and legs but then look at you like some escaped sexual predator if you notice. They will even pay money, sometimes a lot of money, to have their breasts made larger and then bitch about people at work looking at them.
Conclusion - They want you to notice them and then feel bad about it!
Women like to date two-timing assholes and then complain endlessly about them to their nice guy friends and then dump the asshole for another asshole.
Conclusion - They want someone to validate their own low self-esteem. If you are unlucky enough to be the "friend" be aware that you aren't EVER getting laid by either the girl in question or anyone else. After all, anyone willing to play THAT role has got to be the biggest loser of all time.
Women will marry a nice faithful loyal friendly guy for their second husband.
Conclusion - They learn, but very slowly.
Hope I cleared all that up now!
My car goes 145 MPH. This makes for comfortable 65-85 MPH cruising. I once drove a Diesel VW with a top speed of around 70 from FL to DC and it SUCKED. Driving a car over about 75% of the top speed is NO fun.
BTW, I used to have an old and very light Porsche that had no problem getting over 38 MPG and going like a bat out of hell:)
For small ticket items no big deal.
When I sold my car on EBay I was cancelling bids left and right. For at least 50% of them it was obvious there was NO WAY the person could possibly buy a car. If they had a bunch of no-pays for $5 stuff I think the chances of them coming up with a few grand is low. Also thanks to all the African and Chinese bidders - you guys are funny!
You would likely be dead quicky. If you had the good fortune to be part of a tribe or group that was doing well enough to support projects that didn't have instant results then you might be the guy that invented a better spear or figured out a way to predict the changing seasons with a simple star chart. You might have time to research which plants could cure which diseases. You could draw big tits with the ends of burnt sticks and sell porn to other tribes and get rich:)
Funniest thing I have read all month! ROFLMAO
Really - exactly what is this dude up to?
If I had to guess it would be nonstop whacking combined with 1 shower/week.
1. You deal with annoyed people who hate standing in line all day every day.
2. If you were smarter you would have a job that did not invovle #1.
3. On 9-11-2001 people suddenly realized that no one did a real good job securing our borders and now your boss is paranoid the next bunch of suicidal assholes will come through YOUR line.
4. Various neo-con asswipes keep everyone worried about shampoo-bottle bombs and handcream bombs and other dumb stuff.
I ran a company for awhile. I didn't own it, but the owner was far away and rarely heard from. I was very much aware that a screw-up on my part meant many people with no paychecks and no way to pay the rent. I had to fire people I liked because they were going to drag us all down if I didn't. Not fun at all.
I am much happier now in a big organization concentrating on the tech and not agonizing over electric bills and running payroll.
Marconi *WAS* Bill Gates more so than anyone but Bill himself.
He took existing technology and used clever legal maneuvering to build a monopoly. he used his wealth to buy out or destroy any competition. Radio was NOT invented by him. Tesla did it, but was more interested in transmitting power than information. A number of others had working radio inventions too, but no one saw the commercial prospects clearly. Marconi did see them and the legal/semi-legal shenanigans would have brought a smile to Bill G. He didn't SELL radios, he LEASED them to ship owners and provided the operators. These operators were told NOT to communicate with ship or shore stations run by any other company but Marconi! Doesn't that sound familiar!
The scheme fell apart when the Titanic inspired the first SOLAS convention and rules for wireless.
Read Thunderstruck for the amazing details of all this.
Ham and CB operators will get a laugh at the fact that intentional QRM started basically with the invention of the second radio:(

Rules are it starts with dead batteries. You can charge them with a Honda generator if you want, but the gas to run it counts for your MPG.

Harrassed by bored cops? The last time THAT happened I was about 17 and doing the usual illegal stuff bored teenagers do.
They're no plump, they're BIG BONED!
You forgot the part about how we finally got organized and beat the crap out of them - after the peace treaty was signed!

Window-Center-Aisle would rule for assigned seats! Of course course when I get the front-left I KNOW the plane isn't going anyplace without me :)
W - T - F ????????? Hydrogen in this case does exactly what the driveshaft does in my car now. It moves energy from one end of the car to the other.
Did you all forget about Scotty? He wasn't exaclty thin in his last outings!
If food, shelter, and a laptop are your goals then you are doing well. I would go nuts with such a limited horizon.
