Actually, the booms on KC-135R do have these dimples and a raised chaotic surface. I used to repair them when boomers would raise them too quickly and smash them against the retaining hook. It was a bear fixing these surfaces due to the way the boom was shaped, adding in the weird surfaces? A repair that should take an hour took a whole afternoon.
Well, if he's endorsing McCain, maybe I should have a second look.
At the risk of my life, I must issue a GRAVE WARNING to my fellow Americans - about a
potential Civil War between millions if Obama,
the Black candidate, is elected President of the
United States, displacing the white president -
inducing America to become a Black Nation.
There are some whites who cannot accept this,
especially during the drastic hardtimes ahead,
and will initiate a spark of violence that will
spread over the Earth like a wildfire. The
World is now on the verge of such a threat,
and the World condition is highly volatile.
This is most likely the test Biden mentioned.
Neither candidate mentioned RACE for its
beyond their expertise - so they just let it
happen - slaughter like never seen before.
I fear if Obama wins, America will lose.
Now, what will you do to avoid such a hell?

Hmmm... Look it's Gene the Cubic, or Gene the Wisest Human.
But honestly, if this doesn't convince you to vote - the knowledge that there are people out there like this that will - nothing will.
They still have to figure out how to give him more than 12 regenerations though...
Some how, they could explain it away as it being a function of being the last of the Time Lords. Similar to the way a cayman in captivity will only grow to a specific size, populations of certain rodents will only grow to fit the resources available, etc.; it could be inferred that to maintain - pardon the mythology merge - a Star Wars-like balance, there always needs to be a Time Lord, and him being the last has the (un)fortunate evolutionary impetus to continue regenerating.
I see where you were going, but it was a hard journey to get there. You're arguing that like wikipedia, that certain contributors have more weight than others, thus their edits/votes are counted more. What I don't understand is your concept of weighted votes:
Direct democracy doesn't preclude things like votes being valued differently based on subject matter expertise for instance.
How would you propose a person's expertise is gauged? A test at voter registration? Is it re administered annually? Please tell me it's not take home, I don't want some Bible-thumping 7th-day Adventist cribbing the answers to the science questions so they'd be considered an expert.
While I commend your outside the box thinking, fractionated votes aren't the answer imho, it brings back to many memories of pre-civil rights' era America when blacks were only afforded 6/10ths of a vote like they were somehow less than a whole white person.
Already done, Breath Right strips, a cylinder of oxygen and a nasal cannula. You see, you put the breath right strip on the bridge of your nose as directed, and...
I really wish there was a phrase or saying, or this being/. a mod category that indicated that occasion when somebody goes one punchline too far, or tries "drafting" another punchline (for you car analogy loving NASCAR fans - all 1.36537987 of you). It's a sad occurrence and just makes me feel weird. Similar to Kip in Napoleon Dynamite, with the "Your mom goes college" shtick.
I hereby dub this phenomenon and those who are guilty of it "Klingons." If they comeback and say Klingons were cool, inform them you mean ST:TOS Klingons, not Worf-like Klingons. Then laugh at them menacingly.
This is the start of cars driving themselves. There was recently a/. article on key based limiters - speed, volume of radio, etc. - for youth that their parents could enforce based on which key was in the ignition. As this stuff becomes more ubiquitous, people become more accepting of machines making their own decisions, maybe not my generation (born in 76), but maybe in my kids'. (none yet, I'm a/.er)
Hell we're bailing out banks and taking an interest in other businesses, why not a biker gang? This way when the government needs to sell drugs to fund an illicit military operation, they can use the MC gang and the CIA can keep their good name.
The last episode of "Sons of Anarchy" went over this. A guy that was kicked out of the gang was still wearing his ink, the rest of the club found out and helped him remove it, via blowtorch - it was either that or having it flayed from his back with knives. I can't imagine the smell.
This literally sounds like a plot from the subjected series. Along those lines, I'd suggest they merge with another gang and have a 'patch over' party.
Note to the feds, you might want to take down their website too, if you have the IP rights, the logo is all over it. Is INTERPOL involved? I only ask because they have Italy and Mexico chapters.

In reality, you can find fulfillment any way you like, but typically people prefer to couple up.
But every so often I need to switch hands and then it just feels weird.
I agree, I want to download my intelligence into a machine, and he'd help promote the technology that will let me do that.
He'd likely have a staff... and robes... and commandments.... wait, got derailed there.
McCain was a class act, some of the trolls in attendance on the other hand....
A blonde gay furry.
GM, Ford, Chrysler?
By Jove, we've discovered a naturally occurring monopole.

Hell, there was even a Republican candidate who has PROVEN himself trustworthy and reliable. No hypocrite him!
Which one?

I don't remember.
I see what you did there. I clap softly in your general direction.

Nevermind.
I bet you were thinking to your self immediately, "Oh the irony."
