Actually wasn't that the Babylonians with the tower of Babel. and look what happened there.
God warned about this sort of thing, twin towers etc, if people had just listened to him in the first place....:))
I bought a 'wee' and have been playing 'wee' sport, particularly boxing. I've lost a few pounds alreay, my wife wants to get wee fit, but is it worth anohter £70?
Which is why movie critics get advance screenings and then their (favourable) opinion gets blasted all over the mediasphere as part of the advertising campaign.
And also why a lot of the pirated films I've seen have 'the preview credits' at the bottom of the picture. becuase they release the film to some critic in alaska and it ended up on pirate DVD.
How do you check some backwoods cinema isn't copying the reels as soon as they get them.
They shouldn't even have a master copy of the film until its on general release.
I think the only way to 'stop' piracy is to stop producing films altogether. Lets all go to the theatre instead!!
No, I would go along with them, agree with everythig they have said, and ask what thier suggestions are to make the product better.
If they don't come up with any suggestions, or the thought of actually trying to put some effort in usually drives them away.
Don't be so proud of your achivements and you wont' become so disgruntled.
I've spent a lot of time training SpamAssassin and exim with RBLDNS lists of known spammers. And feeding spamassassin with corpuses of spam on a regular basis. I've reduced the spam incoming to peoples boxes from 1000's to 18 per day throught the whole organisation. The boss hasn't given em a promotion yet but I deserve one for being the SPAMINATOR!!
SO CAN-SPAM VERSUS THE SPAMINATOR, lets get ready to ruuuuuummmmmbbbbblllllleeeeee!
Heres some perl
#!/usr/bin/perl
use God;
my $universe = $ARGV[0];
open (SHITHAPPENS,'>' . $universe)
{
my $result =
print SHITHAPPENS $result . "\n";
}
Well your girlfriends grandfather was a hero and she should be proud.
My girlfreinds family are Norweigan, her Uncles were both tortured by the Nazis for nothing more than being men between the ages of 15 and 55.
However much people try to tell me that the Germans didn't deserve Dresden, the more reasons I find to say they did. Just as the Japanese deserved Horisima and Nagasaki.
Just like Saddam deserved Baghdad.
People should know, that if you support a despotic and murderous government that chokes democracy and starves its citizens to buy weapons, then they are going to get it in the ass from Blair and Bush.
If you don't like what your government are doing, stand up and fight (and die) for your rights, and the rights of the guy next to you!
Call me a geek, but I really don't care if my Science Fiction is raw or cooked.
Every time I watch 'Star Wars The Empire strikes back', I get a sqidgy feeling in my tummy when Han Solo can't get the MF to light speed for the second time. I also can't see a future where I'm slicing bread with a metre long beam of light but I still wave my arms about making 'zzzooosh zzzuuummm crshhhhh' noises.
Do I care,... not one jot.. coz it's E-N-T-E-R-T-A-I-N-M-E-N-T!
Er, useless. The allied bombing campign hastened the end of the war in Europe. I'm sorry but when it comes down to it, a war is not a nice clinical thing. Human beings make mistakes, and Hitlers mistake was to think that he could stroll into Poland and everyone would think it was OK. If the German people didn't want to be bombed, why stand up and salute Hitler and cheer when he announced he was going to bomb London.
As far as the intended target of the rail network being up and running after 3 days, that a complete podge. The campaign vs rail and road networks was pretty successful and amazingly accurate for the technology available. You had one man staring down a viewfinder with his finger of a button, and the rest of the crew holding on to their bollocks whilst the pilot tried to fly as straight as possible through blankets of flak.
Ask my Grandad, who just happened to be a Lancaster pilot. He doesn't loose any sleep at night over it, thats all I can say.
I have a large bag of sinclair spectrum 48k/128k tapes that I occasionally trip over when I wander around the darker recesses of my office. Does anyone want 'them' for posterity. Some of them might even work! If people really wanted to keep hold of old data, they wouldn't have written it down on the media equivilant of the back of a used envelope, would they!
