this might actually work! and, if you're feeling especially adventurous, buy a bran new drill bit slightly larger than your magnet, and spin it with your fingers to very slowly drill a hole in your nail (good way to relieve the pressure from blood blisters under the nail as well) i emphasize
*BY HAND DO NOT USE AN ELECTRIC DRILL*
it will sting like a bastard when you get through the nail, but then you can place the magnet in the hole, and super-glue over it. then your magnet is in place until your nail grows out. if your careful, you can harvest the magnet and do it again.
i agree, the brain is just a reflex/adaptation muscle. i remember reading about a study done, where the subjects wore prism glasses, turning there view of the world upside down.
according to the article, after a period of a few days, the subjects find that the world appears to be right side up again when wearing the glasses. removing the glasses results in the world being upside down. a few days of re-adjustment and everything is normal again.
this has always made me feel that the brain can rewire itself to make sense of new input, and makes the likelihood of the brain being able to decipher organized data from computer sources very high.
the water in some cities in the US are so heavily chlorinated, i have little doubt they would kill a large carp. Honestly, i cant drink the stuff. i get it about a foot from my mouth and smell the chemicals, and its "do we have any juice? or maybe a coke?"
forsooth. i once came back from summer break, and my roomate's had let there girlfriends use the house during summer classes, and there was, i shit you not, a 4 foot long drain wookie in the shower. smelled like feet in a nest of dead skunks.
you know they make a rubber bullet version of claymore mines? the dolts on that Jackass show all lined up and got shot with one. wets the size of golf balls. personally, i think *that* would be safer than the tazer claymore.
(welts, or half a dozen pairs of needles delivering electrical shocks to interrupt my nervous system. hmmmmm yeah i'll take welts)
then, tragically, a few years later when driving through that part of town, your friend was slain in a brutal carjacking. witnesses stated that the culprits where yelling something about 'television" and "stereo system"
and of course, the red top green bottom is not always the case, as some cities mount their traffic lights horizontally. (in which case, its USUALLY red left, green right)
to further clarify, this means that the outgoing spacecraft is twice as heavy, requiring roughly twice as much fuel/effort to get up to speed. in the cost of fuel alone, this makes a round trip cost 3 times as much. ad in the price of the return vehicle, (assuming that the outbound craft is not a viable return vehicle) and the cost easily increases to 4 times the cost of a 1 way trip.
al this is why most serious plans for a mars mission involve sending an unmanned craft ahead to start manufacture of fuel, and often involve an orbiter, and a decent/accent module. a personal observation concludes that the fuel plant will need to be able to lift off and deliver the fuel to orbit to refuel the orbiter, or you are going to have to rely on some really fancy gravitational assist returns, which no doubt will take longer.
its because adobe is secretly a windows only company, and the mac versions of their products are ported over by 1 obsessive compulsive code maniac in the basement.
that being said, the tactile response of using a mouse on surfaces other than a cloth mouse pad always feel 'wrong' somehow to me. call me old fashioned, but i just prefer the way a mouse moves on a mouse pad vs. the surface of my desk, a textbook, a sheet of paper, or the top of a pizza box. in fact, i find that the cheep, blank, generic cloth mouse pads they sell in my local wannabe-walmart do just the trick. fancy shmancy double laser dark field gyro stabilized nuclear sub-harmonic mouses be damned.
well, in the name of fun speculation, i'm going to take what you said about things that seem easy and turn out hard, flip it on its head, and predict that we're going to nail down quantum entanglement in the next 10-20 years, and the use of the radio spectrum to transmit information from point a to point b will go the way of the telegraph and horse and buggy.
If we can pull it off, it means crystal clear voice connections, and freakishly fast network connections, anywhere, anytime.
I'm basing all this on the theory that some things seem hard to figure out, but then turn out to not be.
yes, its easy to not ask for services like electricity and gas and a roof over your head. heck! why the hell have i been paying for all this crap for so long? i'll just sleep on the street. i'm sure my boss will appreciate me showing up without showering for the 50th day in a row.
strangely enough, there are lots of us that make only just enough money to not qualify for the state run health care programs, but make no where near enough to afford private health care. freakish huh?

they call it "Less Lethal" its not Non-Lethal, its Less Lethal, aka, you *might* not die.
... that was brilliant! how long did it take you to get that acronym to work? if i had mode points, you'd be getting a +funny

please link EULA stating this.
if i had mod points, i'd mod you up. no idea what category, but i'd do it.
its called: why try can call support, when you can find the answer you need on the internet in half the time. (for me anyways)

you've obviously never been near a large cave.
but is it 3 dollars?
its like fast zombies.
you should go into the big room more.
it would be very very very quiet, and there would be no lane changes made without turn signals.

and the amazing secret zero sent from the aliens just happens to display correctly on any random earth made display.
exactly. and minimum wage is just enough to get by if you work 2 jobs.
