Ok, and if you are the owner of more than one Toyota Prius, do you own Priuses or Priuii or Priii????

What? You don't have the 'Witty Remarks' add-on to your plan? I thought everyone had that as part of the "Friends, Family, and Anonymous Others" Phone Plan. I must be paying extra for that....
It's getting to the point where anytime some company asks me to sign up for any service that requires such sensitive data, I am going to require either a tour of their data center (on their dime) or some documentation as to what security procedures and standards they implement. My first reaction also was "why was it on a laptop and not a server somewhere", but AJ beat me to it.
I was shocked that it wasn't an old IBM 4MB Token Ring MAU they were using--10MB half-duplex? That switch is barely using enough of it's processing power to radiate packets at that speed.... Sheesh!
Yes sir, can you try typing Ctrl-Alt-Delete? Oh, that didn't work? Hmmmm, can you try turning the power off and back on again? No? Well, I'm afraid we are just going to (trouble)shoot it remotely from one of our Tech Support Cruisers.... The NEW world of Tech Support
But those of us who are stuck with satellite broadband from the wonderful companies like Hughesnet will be stuck with vague but enforced 'Fair Access Policy' caps, should you ever decide to download a patch or more than one MP3 file. Moving closer to somewhere that supports cable or DSL would be nice, but for some it's just not an option. Someday hopefully I'll get better service since I already pay three times what the average cable or DSL user pays, for maybe one third to one fifth the bandwidth. Yeah, it's a real deal....
I wonder how many are like me and if it doesn't work on Firefox (or Opera if I am already in it), I may be too lazy to open up IE and enter the address in to view the page. I tend to go to another site (another lost customer) if there is an alternative.
Ok, so since my place has two toilets (data interfaces), does this mean I can use a Cisco 72xx or higher series router to double my throughput with trunking? Hmmmm, must start looking on eBay.... Does it reboot the connection when the data interface is flushed?
I know that's where the line is from (BB one of my favorite movies); I was just wondering it that was the same Coz who plays Svengoolie on a local Chicago TV show (actually looked it up afterwards and found it to be Rich Koz, so close but no cigar!). I miss living up in Chicagoland....
"People never co-existed with dinosaurs."
Ok, you mean you never saw the old Saturday morning program "Land of the Lost"? They existed together then! Next you'll say the cartoon Captain CAAAAAAAAVVVVVVVVVVVVEEEEEEEEMMMMMMMMMAAAAAAANNNNN NNNN!!! wasn't accurate either.....
Firefly Yes! He can even resurrect MST3K, and that wouldn't cost more than $100M for the entire series! Hmmmm, how about "LucasFilms presents Svengoolie!!" (seeing how many Chicagoland readers we have...)
Sure you can transfer skills over. I've almost got the Transmute working on Iron bars to Gold bars. Just have a few kinks left to work out.... Anybody know of a good source in the Midwest for Mithril?
Where was this keyboard when I was learning WordPerfect 4.x and even worse Wordstar 2000? This would have been a great thing to have! I do have to say that for some games like MS FlightSim and Delta Force that have lots of keymapping functions, this would be awesome to have.

Hmmmm, makes that old Sun Ultra 60 that I installed Ubuntu 7.04 for Sparc on may have been worth the effort....meh.
It's not always true...in paintball the team with less paint on them wins, regardless of the team they are on....LOL

I guess this means a new server for World of Warcraft! Maybe I can get my Shaman moved over and I won't have to wait in queue....LOL

(CRASH) ok, time to roll my saving roll....NUTS! two.
And here I thought it was going to be a discussion on books or something...
It sounds like the Templars will be the next to jump on the bandwagon and sue both J&J and ARC since they used a red cross as their symbol....LMAO
Opera seems to like it also.
"All your files are now belonging to us!!!"
No, the SCO car scared him into the wall by threatening litigation....
