    Ben Browder! Wooooo! More, more, more ...

    Where are Ross and Monica and the rest of the Friends cast? In the cart?

  3. Re:Well... on Brazilian Government Continues Push For Free Software · · Score: 1

    Microsoft do something for free? What are you on and can I have some of it?

  4. Canada on Worm vs. Worm Battle Slows Networks · · Score: 1

    Given that the USA hates Canada for being liberal towelhead-loving bastards for not joining in the glorious liberating (omigod-noone-told-us-our-boys-would-get-killed-an d-we-should-have-left-it-to-the-United-Nations-lik e-everyone-told-us) war against Saddam, is it only me that's not surprised it's Canadian networks that are affected by the patching worm?

  5. serious stuff on Scout Walker Kama Sutra · · Score: 1

    You're all taking this far too seriously. Lighten up, people. It's funny. Humour. Hah hah. Lol, if you must. Just enjoy.

  6. Sinclair C5 on Sinclair's Answer To The Segway · · Score: 1

    You killed it! Slashdotted the site. You swines.

  7. Re:Sapphire and Steel on Blakes Seven To Return · · Score: 1

    Ah, now you're talking! David McCallum and Joanna Lumley - a pairing made in heaven. But who could do it now - Jude Law and Sadie Frost? They'll probably give the parts to some wooden ex-Eastenders bimbos and ruin the whole thing.

    Where's Dr Who when we need him?

  9. Re:Great on Amphibious RVing for the Masses · · Score: 1

    Syears ago the US Army had trouble with its new shiny and expensive battle-tanks (ie when driven into mud they got, er, bogged down). Maybe they should start using these, especially if they've got machine gun turrets. Forward, the war against terror and suspicious-looking foreign ducks.

  10. Re:Washington D.C. on A Geek's Tour Of North America? · · Score: 1

    The mudskippers in the Aquarium. Brilliant.
    Crystal City. Fun.
    Generous George's Pasta and Pizza Place. Also brill.
    Alexandria Old Town. Fun.

    And, further afield: go to Okeefenokee in Georgia and fail to see an alligator, like me, but do see a moon moth (huge).
    Lie on your back in the Valley of Fire in Nevada (I think, or possibly Utah or Arizona and gaze at the colour of the rocks.
    Drive through Area 51 (yes, it does exist) and see whatever the US Air Force is going to come up with next.
    Buy a Cornish pasty in Utah.
    See how wide the sky is and feel the difference in the earth under your feet (it feels different from home. Honest).
    Walk in Death Valley and see the blind pupfish.
    Camp just outside Death Valley and have a barbecue (cook-out) there.
    Visit a Civil War fort.
    Walk along the edge of the ocean in San Diego Bay.

    Marvel at how nice Americans are and how fucked up their government is.

  11. Re:Don't Worry, Be Happy on Restrictive Sales Practices on the Web? · · Score: 1

    Will the war on credit card fraud and money laundering be as successful and bloodless as the war on terror? And just because the US puts "appropriate policies" in place, don't think all other nations in the world will necessarily adopt the same standards. Otherwise Europe would be back to the medieval practices of capital punishment and keeping people in chains, just as in so many of the states in the Land of the Free. Credit card fraud will continue because fraudsters and criminals are way ahead of the banks, and the banks don't publicise the extent of the problem, preferring to hush hacking and fraud up. The reason US companies don't ship abroad is that they can't conceive of any reason why they should bother.

  12. Re:The real reason on Restrictive Sales Practices on the Web? · · Score: 1

    No in in the US can find Canada on a map.

  13. Re:"Can't be bothered..." on Restrictive Sales Practices on the Web? · · Score: 1

    It doesn'take that much effort to go to the post office and get a parcel sent.

  14. Re:It's not the console, it's broadband access on Consoles Sluggish To Get Online In Europe · · Score: 1

    It's not so much the expense it's that you can't bloody get it if you live in large parts of the UK.
