In the meantime I was thinking of sticking a hive in my fridge with a couple of dandylions to see how things work out. The hard part is keeping people from opening the fridge for a year.
It looks like Warp Drive Metrics has succeeded in teleporting $25,000 into their bank account from the taxpayers wallets; we shall see if future expirements are as successful.
The MPAA is in a much different situation. Box office receipts aren't down at all -- 2003's figures were $9.5 billion, the second biggest in history.
How about a new slogan: MPAA: Barbecuing Their Cash Cow.
As usual do they even consider that people who are downloading their movies probably wouldn't have bought them either? But hey if they want to waste their profits chasing after these people, that is their choice.
...the nation's first felony prosecution of distributors of spam...
I mean I know spam is bad and all (especially the nasty jellied covering) but dang isn't this a bit extreme? And what about the grocery stores, what will we do when they all go under???
Yes every single one hates him:-) Ok ok it was a blanket statement, but it feels like the US is really polarized these days, with no room for compromise. I suppose another more accurate way to put it is half of America got the president they didn't want. I just get annoyed when people make statements like the parent post that make it sound like Bush is the most beloved president of all time because he got more votes than any other before him. Any bets on if his limo gets egged on inaguration day again, or will they just close the streets along the route?
This is why we need ranked voting. That way people could vote for 3rd party candidate, then lesser of two evils, then greater of two evils, without feeling like a) they are throwing their vote away and b) they make it abundantly clear who they DON'T want to be president.
Never again will you be able to wear shorts or swimming trunks in public! Unless of course you buy the new PenisPocket(tm) to help conceal your ungainly organ, only $19.99 (or two for $35.99)! My new website on a server in Russia will be coming online for you to visit soon, and if you forget don't worry I will send a few hundred reminders into your mailbox tomorrow.....

Need to get an upgrade... Shall we outsource the job to India or China?
I would vote for India, but my vote would probably end up getting counted for China anyway.
It was either that name or a game called "Even more money goodness for Lucas to roll in" but for some reason the lightspeed title won out with the marketing folks.

I just assumed it was because velcro sticks to kilts, but I could be wrong or beaten up by irate Scotsmen later.
You wouldn't be able to mix velcro sheep and regular sheep, otherwise they will stick together, forming one large sheepmass.
If I wear a cape, will you call me Captain Obvious?
BTW, Re: the statute behind him in the picture, I thought they had covered that statue up already?
Cheney/Bush/Rumsfeld. At least you can see my answer even if no one else does after I get modded into oblivion.
I knew I should have hurried up with my idea for a four horsemen of the apocolypse t-shirt, now one of the horsemen has resigned....
Actually this has been around quite awhile, it is called "porn".

How come you don't write in your journal anymore???
Ack, I just realized that now Disney "owns" the Incredibles, which means that any hope of a decent sequel is pretty much out the window :-(
Thank you for not taking your infant to the movies! The hundreds of people who sat around you thank you from the bottom of their hearts too.
Now my computer can do the hamster dance across my desk when all the drives "spin up" (or would that be "shake up" now?)

Well duuuh, that is because more people voted this time around than ever before. Or are we counting all the dead people that voted for him too? :-)
p.s. He still only got 51% of the total popular vote. So guess what, 49% of Americans who voted hate him. Which is a really sad thing IMHO.
Yep that shotgun should come in handy when the tanks roll in. And the British, god only knows when they will invade again!

It is easy to remember which is which: baseball is the game where you watch the grass grow while people run around in circles and spit tobacco on it.

Measurement of mass or calories(hobbicals?) from burning?
Actually a hobbit is a unit of measure, which is basically 2/3 of a dwarven unit or 1/2 an elven unit.
