So, you're going to write your Congresscritter and ask them to allocate a bigger budget to the USPTO? Perhaps ask them to increase your taxes to help out?
how about we reduce our military budget instead?
Being an anarchist myself, i can assure you there is no such thing as an anarchist government, however, anarchist societies do exist. We just disagree with the idea of a controlling hierarchy, and thus never appointed anybody as a leader or organized a committee to be out governing body and declared ourselves as a sovereign nation. Any nation claiming to be anarchist, isn't.
I dated a girl from wolverhampton for a bit and she used the word snog quite profusely. More often written than verbal but still on a rather constant basis.
Maybe if it wasnt for the fact that the US has made speed limits a joke by imposing that national 55mph limit and then forgetting to lift it on roads that used to be 80mph roads. I'd say that on about 85% of american roads the speed limit is lower than it could be safely.
ugh, can we please stop using the word terrorist to describe the entire iraqi resistance. information leaked by any one side of a war could be potentially useful to the other side.
using the word terrorist to describe any one side of the war is disinformation. if anyhting i beleive the american invading force has acted more in a terrorizing fashion. how would you feel if somebody ran in your neighborhood with a bunch of tanks, yelled out "we're here to free you!" and then proceeded to destory your water, power and sewer systems, blow up half your neighbors homes, and started hunting down systematically everybody who tried to stop them, along with anybody who happens to be in the building with them at the same time.

Here in Raleigh NC several of the major roads have been programmed to intentionally stop you from riding all the way through town without a red light late at night, going to the extreme of having to stop at every other light on the road, thier reasoning behind this was something along the lines of keeping people for speeding too fast, but in reality merely gives the drunk drivers coming home from the bars at night every possible opportunity to crash, because most of the drunks around here give up on stopping for them after the first three times of having to stop every two blocks and wait 2 minutes for the light to cycle and you've got a 10 mile drive to get home down that road.
I've been wanting to leave the country for some time now, Ive been trying to ride out my probation before I left so I could potentially return to visit family without fear of being arrested for skipping out on my probation.
I dont think I have any German in me, mostly french-irish. I am horrible with foreign language, Ive taken spanish, french and german and failed all of them at various points in my life. I was thinking of going to the UK but things arent looking so wonderful over there recently either. I've been to africa and cant really see myself settling down there, but i do have connections in the govt of a rather poor country there where a few american dollars can get a long way and could use that as a quick escape if things get really bad.
Taxes? What taxes?
I have no problem aquiring skills, I just have a bad habit of getting the book, teaching myself and ignoring the class. I can pick up the basics of a new programming language in a week, spending several months on it burns me out. I'm always too eager to move on to bigger better things. As an unfortunate result of this I often fail the courses.
Aside from my bad back I think I'm doing ok. I eat as well as I can afford. Heroin and meth are about the two only drugs I never did really get into. The military started to look tempting for a minute but then I realized I would end up going nuts and shooting my superior officers. I dont join cults, I start them;-P
I try to keep my mind right, I've got some good people around me right now, but it's tough times for everybody around here.
Thank you for your advice and encouragement, It's nice to hear some reason in the sea of insanity we're swimming in,

The sharing of the Anarchist's Cookbook is free speech, but we already lost that right. I was expelled from middle school on the day after the Colombine shootings because several months ago I had brought a copy of the Anarchist's Cookbook to school on floppy disks and given it to another student (I was mainly interested in the old hacking stuff [ok, so maybe I made a bomb or two, but only in my back yard]). Later on the student I gave it to printed out some of the explosive recipes and brought them to school. When the administration found out we were both immediately expelled for the rest of the year. They seemed to forget that the other student and I were the entire tech crew for the drama dept. and we had a play the next day. We conveniently decided to take the disk with the light cues (that the actors were trained to react to) on it home with us. The only bomb that went off was the play. after threatening the school system with legal action they agreed to pass me on to the next grade, however I didn't receive credit for my highschool level courses i was in, causing me to repeat several classes which I subsequently failed due to lack of interest (come on, how many times can you take algebra and not just get completely sick of it?). I began skipping school very frequently and got heavily into drugs. Even though on the days I did come I would score 100%s on my tests, because of my horrible attendance and lack of homework being done I ended up resorting to dropping out and getting my GED. I'm now working my way through community college with no job (shitty economy.. thats a whole different rant however...). My quality of living is way below what it should be for someone of my intelligence. Every day I see more of our rights stripped away and I am powerless to do anything (can't vote, felon, again, a rant for another time..) I'm still mad. I think I always will be until something changes drastically in our govt. (or we get a completely new one). Dont lay down and let the government run over us anymore.
Yes, even as a non-US resident, I care deeply about the foolishness going on in the US. If only I knew what to do about it, besides donate to the EFF...
Fly to the US (if you are not stuck here already), obtain a gun (we've got plenty laying around being put to no good use). Convince 10 other people to do the same. Have those 10 people convince 10 more people each etc. etc. Then when the day comes (soon would be my guess) that we cant stand the oppression of the US govt anymore and we march on washington when they start to fire into the crowd we can start to fire back. I think the US is getting close to the critical breaking point where a (long, bloody, painful, destructive, hell-we'll-probably-lose-but-damn-we-need-it) revolution could be set off by an initial group of several hundred organized revolutionaries (NOT TERRORISTS).
For now I guess I'll sit back and see if the FCC monitored that little rant...

It seems that spheres are going to be a very common shape in this movie, With Planets, The Hart of Gold that looks like a big sphere, and Marvins head which is a huge sphere on a little body. I don't know about everyone else all those sphears seem more of a nineties thing. The 2000 seem to prefer more edges in the style.
It amazes me how you managed to misspell spheres twice and correctly thrice
I tried version 5 briefly but while by itself it was a relatively stable release, unfortunately StatBar has yet to be update to work with it, resulting in my fall back to 2.80.
It deeply saddens me to learn of WinAmp's demise, having been an avid fan of the software for several years, I've used it since I was first introduced to Mp3's and digital audio (and filesharing). When version three first came out I was turned off by its annoying tendency to crash and thus have stayed behind at version 2.80 (oddly the most stable for my computer.) which conveniently interfaces with StarBar, Another piece of free software I have grown fondly attached to when in a windows envitonment. I hope somebody has the sense to open the source so winamp may continue to thrive in a bazzaar instead of dying in the dungeons of the dark cathedral known as AOL.

We cant just be happy about something without having to find a flaw in the whole grand scheme.

All I get is a single regular size sandwich (as long as it dosent have roast beef on it, and no hot subs, oh and no #13s either, they have like 6 kinds of meat) and all the mountain dew I can drink. The closest thing to a computer I get to use at work is the cash register.
Thats when the boss is thier anyway, when he's out we eat whatever the hell we want (#13 with triple meat and quadruple cheese) and bring in our laptops for some smoke-break deathmatching.
I work at a Jersey Mikes sandwich shop.. oh the joy. No tech companies want to hire a 19 year old felon (bullshit drug charges, I was set up[yeah i know thats what they all say(seriously tho, it was entrapment[i wish i had that shit on tape])]), no matter how many programming languages I know or networks I've debugged, etc, etc...

err, wasnt meant to be serious, just my lame attempt at making a funny at the slashdot error msg i got when i first clicked the link.
Nothing for you to see here, please move along.
I second this motion. I think i'll call up my local news affilates.

And this has been going on since at least when google talk launched and i decided to get a gmail account.
I read it as "I Am Not A Sports Physician" which would be even more relvant IMO.
