If you're a shareholder in Novell after 1998 or so, you pretty much deserve whatever comes. Where else do they have their money, Netscape and AOL? Honestly.
Actually, there are plenty of deals that rival that. Sprint offers an unlimited voice/text/data plan for $20 more a month than you're paying now. That may seem like a lot at first, but go ahead and have a heavy overage and you're paying that anyway. If you have a smart phone and text even moderately, your plan is no good.
Boost mobile, which uses Sprint's network, has unlimited everything for the same price you're paying. They have limitations on what phones you're allowed to have, but they have plenty of internet-enabled and smart phones.
I agree, fuck you AT&T, but don't think T-mobile is the best game in town. I've had them before and they rank barely above AT&T in my book.
Actually, Denver is expanding it's Light Rail INTO the suburbs. Currently it runs from just north of downtown in a nearly straight line to the southern suburb of Littleton. (home of the infamous Columbine fiasco) Within the next 10 years it will expand to just about every suburb of Denver and all the way out to Boulder. Funding was just approved last election.
The bus system here is also quite good, relatively speaking. Every suburb also has a Park N Ride (which you can take a bus or light rail to) with express lines to and from downtown.
The vote to expand the light rail into the burbs passed overwhelmingly.
Sorry, but rote memorization of useless facts and pop culture doesn't make you a nerd
Ummm...actually, yeah it does. Maybe not smart, but definately a nerd. Geek. Spaz. Dweeb. Whatever you want to call a person that does shit like memorize the names of every extra that's ever been on Star Trek. I'm not insulting nerds, I'm just saying you're wrong, man.
Besides, the guy's a software engineer. Dumbasses don't last very long in that career post-1998.
I think you're reading too much into it, man. I'm all about evil plots, tanks, guns, minions, death, and destruction in video games. I'm quite anti-war in real life...just like most of the hardcore gamers I know. You know who the people are that are all about Bush and American expansionism? The hardcore Christians and right-wing rednecks who probably won't play a video game like either of the ones you mention but are all about keeping the brown and gay people in line.
Video games get that shit OUT of your system. These guys have no outlet, so real people need to suffer.
Gun ownership per capita is higher in Canada, Switzerland, and the Netherlands, that I can think of off the top of my head.
You speak of the big picture. The big picture says that gun ownership is not the problem, it's the social issues in a society that generate the crime, not the amount of available firearms. There is enormous prejudice, class separation, and anger in American culture. It's in our history, and we're slowly working it out. The guns are an instrument, not a cause. But they're not going away, so I choose to have them and hopefully not need them.
To be a morally superior society we need to be morally superior. If I posess a weapon, I intend to use it. Using a weapon against another human is wrong.
I own several firearms. I do not intend to use any of them aside from shooting targets at the range. I relax, I enjoy life, and I do not live in fear. If bad shit goes down, I don't draw a piece at the drop of a hat. However, if that bad shit is an intruder who wishes to cause my family harm, you bet your ass he's getting a Hydrashock or two.
Are you suggesting that people stalking into a man's home dressed in fatigues and gunning him down are a common occurence in the states? That would be on headline news for weeks, unless of course it was THE POLICE doing it.
I just had an argument with an Australian over gun control, on another discussion site. (plug: it's a decent science discussion forum, based out of the UK, but people all over the world read it. check it out)
Just goes to prove my point that people who want guns will find them on the black market anyway, so restricting law-abiding citizens from owning them only serves to strengthen the positions of gun-wielding criminals.
It's a statistical tie right now, right? Undecided voters (about 5% of the population right now) tend to vote against the incumbent. Newly registered voters, who aren't being polled very much for some reason, are overwhemingly Kerry supporters. I'd be surprised if Shrub breaks 220 electoral votes.
Wait, did you just call Bush a strong leader? Just because the captain's posturing and talking tough while refusing the steer the ship away from the iceberg doesn't mean he ain't about to wreck the fucker.
Greenbay vs Redskins? It's football, you douche, not baseball. And I mean real American football, not that pansy-ass running around the field aimlessly crap. Try and be more educated about these things if you want to pretend to give a shit about our election.

It seems to me that this guy just wants an Xbox that works. Suing over defective merchandise for the price of what you paid for it isn't exactly frivolous now, is it?
Drugs are more expensive in other countries because they are allowed to negotiate the prices with the pharm. companies. Medicare and many insurance companies aren't allowed to do that in the US. Also, the pharms know that they won't sell anything at all at the high prices they ask, so they subsidize cheaper drugs in other countries by higher prices in the US. Bastards.
Let's say that you decompile a program into a continuous string of code. How do you know which subroutines govern which program functions? You have to test them empirically.
Now replace program with genome, subroutine with gene and program function with protein. There's your answer.
I think that happened in Ep. 4, A New Hope. I remember the first time I noticed that, I was watching the VHS all stoned out of my head and I noticed the "bump." Man, we must have rewound and rewatched that like 20 times.
What does it say about our society when we readily celebrate instruments of death and destruction, but can't even bring ourselves to look at parts of our own bodies that bring life itself?
It says that our country was founded by religious puritans that were so stodgy and uptight that fucking ENGLAND said "Get the hell out of here, you prissy bitches." They then proceeded to wipe out an entire indigenous people while speaking politely and screwing through holes in sheets.
Michael Moore had a cute little cartoon that emphasized this in Bowling for Columbine.

Mine isn't, but I can vouch for that being funny and accurate.

Assault, however, is a felony. Your Sheriff is a dickwad and I'd be calling up the chief of police to bitch if I were you.
Kind of reminds me of that ThinkGeek sticker that reads "Go away or I will replace you with a very small shell script."
