I agree. Given what I've seen of his talents and intellectual capabilities, were his last name not Bush, he'd probably be known as "that asshole assistant manager down at the Tasty Freeze." I always thought it amusing that his administration fought so hard again UoM's affirmative action policy, when he benefitted tremendously from another form of affirmative action known as "legacy." There's NO WAY that idiot would've gotten into Yale or Harvard any other way. He only went Harvard business school because Texas A&M declined his application to their law school.
I was under the impression that Oxycontin is a time-release pill and if you chew it, you get a very strong high. Since I've never tried it or heroin or morphine, I'll take your word for it:)

dude, have you seen the way Batman and Robin dress? It's pretty flamboyant. Judging by their wardrobe, which consists of capes, leather masks, spandex tights, etc., I'd guess that they do a lot of their clothes shopping at Fredrick's of Hollywood (or some equivalent that caters more to men). All they're really missing is a ball gag and maybe a whip or riding crop.
"...but fail to sue any non-Christian (but still religious) display in front of another public building."
I've yet to ever hear of such a thing. I am a firm believer that the gov't has no business in religion and vice versa and such a thing should also not be permitted. There is one subtle difference here though: the spirit of the first amendment is, in a nutshell, to protect the minority from the tyranny of the majority. Popular speech does not need protecting. Nobody will hit me or punish me for waving an American flag. Just try and burn one and see what happens (not that I advocate such things). Since Christianity is vastly the majority religion in the U.S., a gov't sanctioned nativity display is all the more offensive and unwelcoming to a non-Christian.
Having been a professional auto mechanic, I can say with certainty that gasoline and diesel engines are quite dissimilar when it comes to diagnosis and repair. The things that tend to go wrong with diesels are much different than those for gasoline. For example, if you are diagnosing a miss, the 1st thing you'd look at in a gas engine is the ignition subsystem. With diesel, you'd probably look towards the injector pump, but I am guessing since the dealer where I worked had a diesel specialist, and for good reason. Even though I was a master technician, I knew squat about diesels. Even the braking systems are different. The diesels had their boosters powered by the PS pump. The gas cars used engine vacuum.
What apt and deb really need is to add gpg sigs to their packages. I think this would alleviate this issue quite a bit. Since rpm already does gpg, I would expect that it would not be too hard to at least add gpg checking in apt-rpm.
They should probably aim a bit lower than a virus at first...Maybe they should try to recreate George W. Bush? Maybe they could even improve upon the original. Maybe they could give it a simple brain or something.
Hey, AOL is not so bad in some ways...They helped fund the Mozilla project and also created the open source AOLServer, which I've not used, but have heard many nice things about it.
So you've gone from "just because" to a circular argument. Nice.
Here's a question I ask people who ask me "Why do I not believe in [insert their god(s) here]?" I ask them what it would take for them to disbelieve in god. A lot of them have never even given that a thought and it sometimes makes for a good conversation.
It is my opinion that religion is from the infancy of our intellect and the sooner we discard with it, the better. I believe those of us who are not blinded by divine light are better equipped to see the world as it really is and are able to appreciate the wonder of existence in a much more profound manner.
The RIAA and MPAA's weapons come in the form of bad legislation that is typically overbroad and vague. I think one could make a case that the DMCA has already hurt people.
I did not mean to come off as though I thought the Clinton administration is really any better. Clinton did sign the legislation so he shares the blame here.
Why would Boucher get destroyed? You may be right, but I am just curious as to why. Maybe he'd go the way of Paul Tsongas?
But their idea that "The Government Must Act to Protect the Internet" is just not going to happen. Especially under George II's reign. If anything, the government has gone out of its way to *ruin* the internet starting with the '96 Telecommunications Act, which also encapsulated (IIRC) the CDA. Then they passed the DMCA, COPA and now they want to force DRM down our throats. This congress and this administration is, in large part, squarely in the pockets of the large corps. I wonder if we could get Rick Boucher (D., Va.) to run for president in 2004? I have reviewed his voting record and he has a perfect civil liberties score AND he is entirely against all the above silliness.
It's a good thing that the Bill of Rights was passed when it did. Now it wouldn't even make it out of committee...

You are correct, but give an old man a break. I simply recalled incorrectly.

It was the University of Texas that rejected his application.

I second that. If there were, we'd probably have McCain for president instead of plant life.
I *really* hope he is a one term President. I swear his middle name should've been Orwell.

Yes, I agree. Let's all hope that Dubya keeps his hair short.
