    Yeah, there is not enough syllables. Compare:
    There once was a man from the grass
    Whose balls were made of fine brass
    In stormy weather
    His balls clanged together
    And sparks flew out of his ass

    M-O-O-N, that spells I blew my karma long ago and I post pointless comments that no one ever sees.

    I always keep a blank tab open. When I minimize Firefox, I first switch to the blank tab so there's no telltale text in the toolbar icon.

    What you need is Leisure Town which is no longer available but mirrored at radishes.org. The manual for Leisure Town describes its "boss key" features, including ever-present links hidden in the site logo to take you to an all white page, an all black page, or you can drop into an important looking "debugger" screen. I love you, Leisure Town!

    Another potential solution would be to have Microsoft re-distribute XP (or start distributing XP) with the firewall installed (ie, with SP2).

    I think they do.

    Another one that really tweaks me is "Change the world... FOREVER."

    I mean, unless you are changing the world just long enough to build a time-travel device and then go and unchange it...

  10. Re:Information and Release on Microsoft Releases AntiSpyware Program · · Score: 0

    For me it says that RealVNC is spyware. However, the after-scan summary is pretty intelligent - it only selected two acutal spywares for removal, and ticked four other programs, including WinPCap, a hella old version of Kazaa, and RealVNC, as being "moderate" threats and so the program simply advised me on their presence without recommending their removal.

    tornado's and riots

    Why did you use an apostrophe on one plural and not the other in the exact same context? I don't understand the logic here.

    Sieg Heil!

  13. Re:lowered expectations on Revenge of the Sith Pics Leaked · · Score: 0

    sure thats what i means, but it also means to kill, it also means a vinyl record check here http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=wax &r=f [urbandictionary.com] the urban dictionary has many entries for wax, and isn't the point of slang that it is not the actual meaning of the word, thus there is NO really incorrect way to use a word if it is being used a slang?

    Totally agreed, dogg. Also to help you see why I said what I did, realize that in this small way I am trying to control the established slang meaning of the word. Of course you can use any word any way you want and have it make sense in your own head. I'm simply expressing my displeasure for that use of the word, while promoting a much better (IMO of course) use.

    Go ahead and use "wax" to mean "to kill," IF YOU WANT TO MAKE AN ASS OF YOURSELF!

    The minute I saw Samuel Jackson on screen I knew that he was going to get waxed sooner or later.

    Sorry guy, slang "wax" means "to fuck," as in "I'd wax dat ass."

    Then she calls back on the card, and juices it for every single minute it's advertised to get. :)

    That's a big maybe. I work in telecom, for a company that has a retail division which does give accurate minutes with no fees. Most companies, large and small, have a number of tactics to squeeze money from you. This includes redefining the minute.

  16. Easy on How Do You Make International Calls? · · Score: 0

    I work for a telecom company. I go into our account interface software and credit my account a couple hundred dollars. Then I dial one of the access numbers, enter my pin, and dial.

    Unfortunately, most of the international calls I make are work related, such as calling hotels to check line quality. Can anyone else relate?

    Yep. I'm sitting in my car at a car wash right now, with the power cord from my laptop strung out my window into the AC jack at the vacuum station. I'm sending this via T-Mobile over a Sierra Wireless GPRS/GSM AirCard 750 PCMCIA card. The connection is 40kbps and I get pretty decent reception (Pacific Northwest).

    It's a snap to install and use, but then again I'm running XP.
