Hmmn, I wonder if they also do this with Macbooks as well? Seems an easy way to avoid complaints with the batteries in laptops as well?
Unless this is filmed in Vancouver it will be...

...utter garbage. The mood set by Vancouver's gloomy gray wet and cold winters was the perfect setting for the series. When they moved production to Los Angeles(thanks Tea Leoni !!!) it went to hell very quickly.
As opposed to worshipping more traditional athletes elsewhere in the world? We put on pedestals people who are basically playing kids games. Take you pick, hockey, baseball, tennis, whatever. These people while talented contribute exactly the same thing to society as a bunch of Starcraft players.
The Koreans appear to have found a new form of status to worship. We are not better, they have just picked a more advanced form of it.
What a load of utter bollocks. If you have done any travelling while not under the safety blanket of a mega US corporation you will realize that it is not entirely safe for Americans to travel outside of a few countries, ironically the safest for you is Canada. You stand a much greater risk of getting raped, robbed or assaulted in the good ol' USA.
If you want proof perhaps the tale of a mass kidnapping in Gaza a few months back. A bunch of Westerners were kidnapped, demands were made and of course the American among them was threatened with death. Funny little note, when the kidnappers went through the passports of the unfortunates, they came across a certain passport, apologized to the victim and made sure he was released ASAP.
Guess which Passport he was carrying?
That's right, Canadian.
Your passport will get your head chopped off and the video of it on the net, mine will get me a coffee or tea, a tour of the countryside and the request that when I get back to look up his cousin Ahmed in Toronto to say hi.
You know, one time we had a hill bombed, for 12 hours. When it was all over, I walked up. We didn't find one of 'em, not one delicious' dink body. The taste, you know that gasoline taste, the whole hill. Tasted like... victory. Someday this war's gonna end.......and then I am going to Red Lobster for their all you can eat shrimp feast!
OCTOPUS: GurgleRarrr! *attacks*
ME: *oof* Ex-CUSE me, but I SPECIFICALLY requested the shark.
OCTOPUS: *Look Buddy, As a member of UnderSea Horrors Local 1518 I am sorry to inform you that Brother Sharkey had booked this day off weeks ago for a shop stewards meeting. I am his designated replacement. If you have a problem with that too bad buckko. Now lets hurry this up and get you devoured, I already have 8 hours of overtime this week and just want to go home.*
Think about it, if it truly rained alien microbes then this is great news for humanity. For one it proves life exists elsewhere. Plus it provides a rather simple solution to how we came to exist on this planet, without involving The Big Angry Dude in the Sky. Finally since we are not all dead, and for that matter exist at all, it shows that whatever out there is and has been taken into account by our immune system. Thus making instellar travel if it happens just that much safer.
I do not understand why any computer voting machines are needed? Here up in Canada we manage to have free and fair elections using nothing more sophisticated than paper and pen. This system scales as easy as any other and does not allow any system wide shenanigans at all. We run it all with dedicated non-partisan civil servants and volunteers. It is simple and works.
First of all Beta was not cheaper than VHS. One of the reasons BETA failed was that SONY was charging way higher royalty payments for the rights to make it then JVC was for VHS.
The real reason BETA failed is a classic in business history. The story goes like this. When they were deciding what sort of cartridge to make for the then brand new concept of a VCR the Chairman of Sony decided that the size of a tape cartridge should be the size of a paperback novel. Thus easier to store in a bookcase. The engineers at JVC decided to make the video tape cartridge the size required to allow the recording of a full length movie. Sony's first BETA tapes were too small to put a full length movie on just one tape. They later developed thinner tape to allow for a longer length in the cartridge and the ability to put a full length tape in your VCR. Unfortunately for SONY it was to late and they blew their chance to dominate the VCR market.

Shut the fuck up Rust.
Oh, I don't know. A little water and a good spatula could make a jaunty afternoon of sculpting.
If only Frank Grimes had lived, none of this would have ever happened.
He said things to look out for, not things to look forward to.

Yeah, that is a good group to be associated with. Heres a hint if the nutbags at Stormfront think "your" candidate is a good choice, make another.
.....reincarnating/etc.... depend on whether you have a good upload ratio? The Seventh layer of Hell is populated by leechers.

She certainly could suck the air out of any room, the Oregon Coast would just be a warm-up for her.

Osama Bin Laden can finally now upgrade to higher quality video for his latest release.
