And at the very least, after a few weeks we could bust them all for whatever the hell they're going to call the crime (doesn't seem like copyright infringement) of skipping commercials.
So, according to this pattern, Bush will definitely win the election, since a second term is required for the assassination since the last attempt happened during the first term...
When my husband and I go to movies (which isn't very often, frankly, because of people talking during movies) we both turn our cell phones to vibrate. If we get a call, we shield the display to see who it is, immediately hitting the 'silence' button.
I would love it if we could turn in our cell phones, but we need to be able to screen out the non-emergency calls without having to leave the theatre (we would probably each have to leave at least three times - we use our cell phones for our business, plus we have parents that don't really understand that a two-hour movie really takes two-and-a-half hours, so they call back during the last few minutes of the movie), but be able to leave if we get a call indicating that our son (or someone else) requires immediate attention.
I've found most people are polite with their cell phones in the theatre proper. Walking over and standing directly in front of someone talking on their cell phone in a theatre is usually a good way to get them to stop. My pet peeve is the people who think that because they are standing in the entryway of the theatre (inside the doors) they can have a cell phone conversation. Sound carries incredibly well from that area, and it is incredibly annoying that the person is chattering away, loudly and obliviously, for a long time.
At least, too young to remember the drought and heat wave of 1980. It caused somewhere in the neighborhood of 10,000 deaths in the U.S. and billions of dollars of damage. The years around it were no picnic, either.
I remember frying an egg on a cinderblock for brunch at my grandmother's house in eastern Oklahoma that summer. I have read accounts since then that say it can be done if the temperature is as low as 95 degrees, but we tried several other times and never got one to fry if the temperature was lower than 105 - maybe something to do with using a cinderblock instead of a sidewalk (there aren't many sidewalks in the country).
I've seen this (at a McDonalds next to a Blockbuster, haha) but I haven't taken a close look. What kind of selection do they have, and how long do you have before you have to return the movie?
You'd have to figure out what's considered a blog, then - for instance,/. and Drudge Report are considered blogs, but I think both these sites would argue that they are 'news sites'.
Slashdotting a site results in a single (or maybe a few) site receiving heavy traffic and possibly being knocked offline.
Linking to an images.google.com search can take down every website linked to on the first (and possibly subsequent) page of the search.
There are those word combinations that appear only once on Google (can't remember what they are called) - will a new game emerge from finding image searches that link to all different websites, then posting the search link to see how long it takes for any or all the sites to go down? Maybe sort of a 'Last Man Standing' sort of thing?
Prolly woulda given you a little more credibility if you had properly referred to it as a worm, and if you had said that it opens ports instead of saying that it had open ports....
I find it interesting that some people are so defensive about Gore that they are quick to jump to "Here's what Gore really said", even if it is the SAME WORDING that Gore used.
Did you read the parent post, or did you just see the words 'Al Gore' and 'Internet' and start having 'Must Correct That Wrong-Headed Conservative' convulsions that forced you to copy an entire article from snopes?
Actually, the types of people who would harass someone about hard drive settings are exactly the opposite type of people who would get upset about marijuana use. The former are your overly politically correct, whiny, sniveling 'everything offends me' type of people, the latter are your right-wing, wanna-control-everything, 'it must be bad because it's against the law' type of people.
Now that I've managed to offend both sides of the political fence, I'll crawl back into my hole.

So...do you think the fact that both teams suck ass this year is reflective of the quality of the candidates? Another funny coinkydink...
