iThink things like the iTrip are an iWaste. Any little bootleg FM station seriously fscks up the quality of your music. Best just head on over to crutchfield.com and look into a stereo with RCA input. You can pick up an adapter cable that patches into the changer control on pretty much any stereo. Then you have direct line in, and no FM interference, no headphones, it just works.
Preach on. I don't mind a nice Guiness or Harp, but thats a heavy duty beer when you're all hot and sweaty. In Ireland, American light beer is advertised as a light refreshing drink. Watery yes, but it is just that. Nothing like a cold Miller Lite after a hard workout.
You make it sound as if AK-47's are hard to come by. In most parts of the world, they're more plentiful than just about anything. You can get one for a half edible meal in most parts of Africa, or for a hundred real US dollars in South America.
As a competitive runner/multisport athlete, I say bring it on. I love to see cute competitive 18 year old girls. Then if it turns out she can use linux, I'm really in love.
Congrats on bringing your yung'un up with a proper knowledge of computing. (i. e. there is more than just windows out there) Most of my college classmates have no idea about open source. My mom's friend has custody of her 8 y/o grandson, and they don't have the money to buy computers, so he gets my hand me downs. Next time the kid has a birthday I'm going to make sure the system I give him can dual boot in addition to having plenty of open source windows software installed.
At any rate, do you need the internet to find big grey ships hundreds of feet long? The attackers of the USS Cole didn't use google to know where the ship was going to be. They had some guy watch the horizon, then when he saw a US ship on its way to port, they knew to get the suicide bomb ready. I don't get the big deal about google listing the home port of ships (here's a hint, they're at a naval base) and the damn things are only in home port a fraction of the time anyway. Usually they're out to sea.
Did anybody actually follow this link? Did you notice the part where it said "This product is designed to fit juniors. It fits snug, sizes run small. Please see our size chart for more information. " in the description? That is just wrong man.
Wearing the Champion Chip is one thing. I don't mind it because after the race, you take it off and throw it in a bin, usually in trade for your finisher's medeal. With RFID on products, that chip is supposed to stay with you for good. Also, you generally give up some privacy when you run races and tris and whatnot, anybody that googles your name comes up with pages and pages of race results.
This sounds very familiar to me too. Schools don't take it well if you do anything at all that deviates from the script they had written out for your "lesson." The teachers usually know very little about computers if anything at all. If you do something they don't understand, it is met with fear. My favorite one was when I tested one of my lessons from earlier during high school. A particular zealot of a teacher told us that rock music revealed "satanic messages" when played backwards. (yes, I went to catholic school) I reasoned that satanic messages played backwards would reveal rock music at least once. I tried using a lab computer with a mic and windows recorder to record various satanic messages, then reverse it and play it back. I was given a very stern lecture, in which they literally told me "science and the church don't mix" Lucky for me I was on good terms with the teacher for getting the tolken ring network working before their evaluation. Otherwise I could have easily been thrown out.

I believe you're thinking of Cl, not C.
3 children? We will let the spelling lapse go on grounds of insanity. They're not yours are they?
