After watching the Bush comedic skit preceding Colbert's, I noticed something interesting. Bush's skit covered many of the same things that Colbert's speech did while being (in a way) more entertaining. I wonder if the Bush team had a copy of the Colbert speech to reference when writing their own. This allowed them to steal his thunder and do it fairly well. I think if Colbert spoke first and then Bush, Colbert would have gotten much more attention.
I've had more than my fair share of legal bullshit happen and I'm a above average University of Michigan student who got accepted to even better schools but couldn't afford to go.
Don't paint everyone with your stereotypical brush.
It works great in practice. When I moved out of my old house, I deauthorized all those computers from the iTunes menu on my own computer. I didn't have to have access to any of the other computers, and since iTunes has to connect to their server to authorize songs originally purchased on other computers, it made no difference if those computers were connected or not. In one case, one of the computers I deathorized didn't even exist anymore.
I guess it's easier to throw around wild assumptions though.
I know all about the rootkit affair. I was wondering more about the boycott. Do you honestly think a significant amount of people are boycotting Sony over that?
I'm sick of hearing people tell me they can't afford a $600 PS3 so they're going to buy a $400 Xbox. This is the kind of financial attitude that gets people in serious trouble (And I would know as a debt-management program member). Microsoft already proved that high price points are still viable, and $600 over $400 simply isn't THAT huge of a difference.
Sony music is being heavily boycotted due to the ROOTKIT fiasco.
Can you show me some references to this? I know slashdot soapbox preachers talk about this, but I haven't heard it anywhere else. Do you have any articles or something? Thanks in advance
I got my open-box 30" CRT HDTV for $450 two years ago and am perfectly happy with it. No need for anyone to max out their cards. I'm going to buy a PS3 and most likely will buy a Wii also. If Microsoft can convince me the Xbox isn't that boring, I might buy one when I get tired of the other two.
If someone can afford a $400 Xbox, they can afford a $600 PS3. There is no way a person without the means to buy a PS3 can financially justify the Xbox.
If a good wage for a fulltime job in your country doesn't even cover the cost of a small apartment, is the majority of your country homeless? Your numbers don't add up.
You are correct in regards to cell phones and 911. Any cell phone that powers on will be able to call 911 no matter if it has an account attached to it or not. As long as you're within the reach of a tower, it will call 911.
He explained it in another post. A cannot make more than ALL Bs combined, and so on. So if you're directly responsible for 10 cashiers who make 25k a year, you can't make more than 250k a year. Does it make more sense now?
I experienced most of my schooling in the US, with significant time spent in German school and enough time spent in a Polish school to get a taste.
The Polish school was by far the most challenging of all of them in every aspect. The American school district I went to is considered very good, but it had nothing on the Polish school I went to (admittedly also a top notch school). Surprisingly (to me at the time), the German school was by far the worst of the three.
At this point my concern would be elevated if I was a retailer. How does Gamestop get a cut of this? One thought is offeting kiosks with this stuff to download and Gamestop getting a certain cut. For those without an internet connection or who don't want to sit and wait 6 hours for a 400MB map pack to download, they can go to their local Gamestop and get it there locally.
Last time I was in Gamestop, I noticed they had some sort of Nintendo DS "download station." I don't own a DS so I didn't really pay much attention but I wonder if this is something similar?

He was on the Daily Show with Jon Stewart before starting his own show, the Colbert Report.

Yeah yeah, posting drunk at 6AM will do that. I noticed right after posting :/
What a buncha bullshit assumptions to make...

If that's true, I'd suggest authorizing however many more you need to reach 5, and then deauthorize all of them.

That price is for the VIP section, no? Regular seats are several times cheaper.
You're a douchebag. Everyone of your posts I've seen today just drips with the kind of lame language angsty 17 year olds use.
Anyways, a $200 PC someone can afford isn't a "complete piece of crap" compread to the $400 PC they can't justify or afford.
This is correct, the term for what use to be called designer drugs is now research chemicals.

"could of" means nothing. The contraction is could've, as in "could have."
You may not be a native speaker, but I was born in Poland and am drunk.
I'd say at least 75% of my texts are to non T-mobile customers and personally I haven't had any problems with them. What issues are you encountering?

San Andreas on the PC was a vast improvement visually to the previous ones, at least as far as I remember it.
