And why would anybody admit even in an ashamed whisper to their physician (not to mention proudly in television ads that reach millions) that they require "male enhancement"?
I don't want to encourage people to be dicks, but that line seems silly to me. What's the point of saying it?
One its the truth and two its target really was myself and not anybody here. I meant no offense - my inner snark was just desperate to get out of its cage and walk around like a free snark for a few minutes.
Either provide me with a flat rate, "this amount is what your service is going to cost to the penny" number before we make a deal or lose me as a customer. Its your call. I don't particularly need a cell phone that doubles as an MP3 player because I already have an MP3 player that meets all of my needs.
Can they be programmed to keep those damn kids off your lawn? And will this research be passed along to the receiver when GM files for bankruptcy next week?
If I were an employer and I saw such a codicil posted on the web site of somebody who wanted to work for me, that would be sufficient cause for me to instantly toss their application in the dumper. Otherwise, I would just surf there from a non-company computer and get my fill of proof of malfeasance on the part of the applicant with the applicant being none the wiser.
And how could it possibly benefit any employer to agree to this? It does not violate a prospective employee's civil rights in any way - they themselves posted the material on a public web site available to anyone who wants to surf on in and see it. It would be like demanding that the HR Department at Xerox not be allowed to review or keep an applicant's paperwork if the applicant wrote "FUCK XEROX" in 50-point bold all over the back of the thing. If they had any brains at all, they just wouldn't hire that person.
Is this the same Emmanuel Goldstein that posts on the Hannity boards? If so, she'll be very surprised to learn that she had a sex change operation and is now a he.
Post a challenge on alt.2600 and The Pirate Bay to all comers: award the first cracker to get back root with a lifetime supply of Red Bull and a 10 bill shopping spree at the Frys in Palo Alto. They'll have the guy's password sliced and diced by Wednesday.
A STUDY that claimed 650,000 people were killed as a result of the invasion of Iraq was partly funded by the antiwar billionaire George Soros.
Soros, 77, provided almost half the £50,000 cost of the research, which appeared in The Lancet, the medical journal. Its claim was 10 times higher than consensus estimates of the number of war dead.
So is the Times lying? The New York Post? The International Herald Tribune? Is everybody lying except you?
And you can thank me at your convenience for saving you from thread drift. The Hunts have nothing to do with George Soros.
OK, perhaps "making up" was not the correct phrase to use in this context. But what good is an ostensibly "scientific" journal if they publish without question whatever dubious propaganda George Soros happens to pay for? That's called a "vanity publisher", not a serious journal.
No, The Lancet's reputation is in the toilet for a good reason - they are now nothing more than a bought-and-paid-for house organ of the European and American left.
But hey, if you want to blame the Trilaterial Commission and the Reptilians for America's current financial woes, knock yourself out.
I guess that the Lancet was just not hard or factual enough a source.
Considering that The Lancet recently got caught with their hand in the cookie jar making up bogus statistics about the number of war dead in Iraq at the behest of George Soros, I too have a hard time accepting anything said in The Lancet (http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=7b2_1199991668) as factual. They really have pooped in their own nest when it comes to integrity.
Looks like someone didn't read Asimov, because the robot's correct actions would have been to follow the orders even when they result in damage to it.
Nope. Phoenix breaking its own arm in a futile attempt to carry out a bogus instruction would have allowed human beings to come to harm - the scientists depending upon its data to help further their careers and the taxpayers who paid for the thing to be sent to Mars in the first place. The Three Laws are not necessarily a suicide pact even if your construction is accomplished by skilled and not unskilled labor.

A good portion of "Tornado Alley" is in Texas. And a quick 'n easy Wiki reveals that the state gets more tornadoes than any other.
1. Become T. Boone Pickens.
2. Purchase controlling interest in the companies that build and service windmill generators.
3. Persuade government to foot the bill for installing thousands of said expensive windmill generators in open areas of Texas.
4. Snicker behind my hand as I realize that Texas gets every bit as many tornadoes as the so-called "Tornado Alley".
5. ???
6. PROFIT!

But hey, buy up all the GM stock you can get your hands on. I'll just continue to invest in soup kitchens and we'll both be happy.
