>They say 15mbit Internet and unlimited. Well geee... what would be the unlimited part? I would think most people would expect that the unlimited part is how much you could transfer in a billing period.
I agree with your sentiment, but there is a different usage of "unlimited" that has more currency in the land of ISP. That is in relation to time. Used to be plans had limited numbers of minutes that you could be online. So, perhaps they mean you can be online an unlimited number of minutes at high speed, but you just aren't allowed to do much. Verizon are still scum, though.
Well, Queen Noor of Jordan is an American. (And still pretty hot at 58.) However I take your point about cultural translation of American 1938 radio dramas.
No, the Windows Vista green-and-blue theme looks like a geomagnetic storm revoltingly infecting your computer. I'm also pretty sure this was a Star Trek episode or two.

And if this guy is so cognitively challenged that he can't fold his own aluminum foil hat, someone should show him how. This is the traditional counter measure used by delusional hypochondriacs.
The one I visited was definitely linear. Another poster stated that IMAX theaters are not standardized on IMAX 3D, and that you can find IMAX theaters with every flavor of 3D.
There are three main 3D formats out there, IMAX 3D, RealD, and Dolby 3D. IMAX 3D uses linear polarization, RealD uses circular polarization, and Dolby 3D uses the Red/Blue color separation. In the first two, the glasses appear light gray, while the last has obviously colored lenses. I saw Avatar in the first two and Alice in the third.
My personal preference is for the polarized techniques. The IMAX was definitely the most immersive. The Dolby 3D seemed too dark and sometimes lighting made me aware of reflections on the inside of the lenses. Additionally, in the Dolby 3D, some of the colors, particularly greens, just seemed off.
They have a large, new building and don't need this one. It's too small and requires a lot of maintenance. The international treaty governing Antarctica requires that unused buildings be removed and the site returned to as close to the original state as possible. No danger of it turning into a penguin slum this far from the coast, but if the Shoggoths move in, it will really mess up the neighborhood.
I have said this before here, and will say it again now. I believe Childs is in the wrong and has behaved badly. He seems to have a martyr complex and doesn't seem to remember who actually owns the network.
I would never hire this guy to manage my network; and yes, I do have a network I hire people to manage. His actions show me he cannot be trusted. He is not Horatio at the Bridge; he is a complete asshat. For the record, I do live and work in the Bay Area, and I also believe Gavin Newsom is a complete asshat.
Beardo - That all sounds exactly like my situation about 5 years ago. It's tough and no easy way out, but I'm out of it, and life is hugely better. If you want to shoot me an email address to my nick on yahoo messenger, I'm happy to talk about it.
Let's see... I'm an officially licensed USSF soccer referee. The US Soccer Federation is subject to control by FIFA, headquarters in Zurich, Switzerland whose President, Sepp Blatter is no friend of the US. Thank god I don't live in South Calinky, or I'd have to register for sure... probably have to turn in any of my colleagues who didn't. Maybe the SC legislature can start up its own House Un-American Activities Committee and give the next Nixon a leg up the ladder.
Saying you're keeping precise time with an aluminum clock just doesn't sound as cool as saying you're using a cesium fountain clock. The proper Mad Science(tm) approach should involve things like ytterbium lasers and liquid helium, not just aluminum.

So, we would expect this to behave as a halogen? Sadly, I have retained almost none of two years of university chemistry.
No, it has now been obtained.
My vote goes to #2, immeasurable dread.

yes, the brains should be quite valuable, never having been used
No, no. In true zombie fashion, Darl would have eaten them long ago.

This will only encourage the Velikovskoids.

This must be the famous Sack of Shit I keep hearing about.

Preferably with .45 250 grain silver hollow points. Following up with 5 gallons of gas and a hurled Zippo would only be prudent.
Is hookers who won't give you the clap and we're in Bender's Heaven.
Not counting the cost of the methane or other hydrocarbon fuel.

>My wife has basically told me to never touch her.
This is a no-brainer. Get a new wife. Seriously. Life is too short. Or is she OK with you having a GF on the side?
Do not look at sun with remaining camera.

Sorry, but it's Friday, and it's five o'clock somewhere.
