  2. Bring the Mouse with you. on Moving to Mac Made Easy · · Score: 1

    Why not drag your USB mouse from the pc to the mac, then download the appropiate software from the manufacture.

    OR

    go to www.versiontracker.com and invest in one of those nifty shareware progs that map the buttons for ya. :)

  3. Excuse me, But you have something on your shirt. on LotR Cleans Up at AFI · · Score: 1
    Truth is a multifaceted Gem. But you definately have a flawed one. While I know this is probably in vain, I shall make a few points about homophobes and their lack of background information.

    * There are only a few women in the whole movie and those who are play just minor roles. This is rather strange because 50 percent of middle earth's population should be female.


    Interesting. Yes, the population of middle earth should be fairly balanced sex wise. And Things being in a "middle-ages" kind of timeframe, I would have to say that there would NOT be many women seen in a POWERFUL position. Why? Because they weren't allowed. With the mild exception of the elves. You have the Lady of the Loth...(im not going to even try to spell it.) Pretty powerful gal.

    * When the movie was created the character "Sam" should be initially women. But the fan crowd protested, so that this minor change of Tolkins original story wasn't made.


    What is the purpose of this?

    * The initial actors for the female roles were attractive very feminine looking women. But the fan crowd protested again and the actresses are no rather ugly and with a male appearance.


    Interesting "Truth" you have here.

    * There are many strange names/ vocables which could be interpreted as references to homosexual terms and practices like "dark king", "ring", "elv" and "modor" (backwards: rodom).


    Well, this explains most of your lack of understanding. Ya see, there are more languages out there that you have never heard. And some of them are quite...ah, pleasing to the ear. And since about 3/4 of the languages of Middle earth were created by J.R.R. Tolkien, who was a linguist and historian. As to your failed implications of homosexuality...Well, those who are obsessed with homosexuality will see it in everything...

    Truth is an empty cup.

  8. Re:School's for Fools on Techies Saying No To College · · Score: 1

    A few O'Reilly books can teach you more for less, as far as I'm concerned. And, as an added bonus, you can learn that way naked. So, are we going to see you naked reading O'Reilly books? Darn. No O'reilly books. ;)
