I don't know about where you live, but in NH homeschooled children (like my cousins) are required to take state-administered exams, to ensure that they are getting this thing called education.
True, the bus still does run the route, and with less children. But say four children per bus become homeschooled. The bus becomes less packed, and if you have 25 buses, that makes 100 kids less. That's enough to eliminate one whole bus. Also, assuming that these 100 kids are in four different grades. That makes 25 kids less per grade--almost enough to eliminate a class. But no; let's not eliminate it--let's thin out the classes more!
The end result of all this hypothetical homeschooling: conditions improve both at the school and in their education! Like the guy said, it's win-win!!

If you get an antenna big enough (e.g. 200 ft), you will find that there is quite a lot of energy flowing through it, and if you want to use it for anything, you'll have to ground it.
This is how HIV was created, actually. Two virii from something with an S in it (I can't remember) did something and became HIV. The only other thing I remember was that it had to do with monkeys. (Also bananas, but I think that part's just me.)
True. The only way to prevent breaking something like this is to not create it at all. The easiest way to deal with pirating is allow it. For once, the policy of "Leave it alone and it will go away" works.
The PSP has recently been cracked, allowing movies, games (i.e. emulators), and even porn to be downloaded to the PSP. My friend even passed around a copy of a hack that deposited the yet-unreleased version of the PSP firmware, which includes an internet browser. (Of course, I am a little shady on the details, not having one myself.)
Actually, some archeologist or someone has found evidence of pornography drawn on stone walls, i.e. cave drawings. It was long before 1826 that porn was invented. (Now doesn't that make you feel all warm and fuzzy?)

You mean as in AOL's "YOU'VE GOT MAIL!!!" and "GOODBYE."
I hate those.

K9's back? Good! I liked K9! Mas-ter?
No, read carefully:

They used bad batteries.

Because it was proved now. You should see the scientists that were doing the tests celebrating.

"for hire" by marketing firms, companies, mafias
I can imagine it now; the Godfather via email.
I have. Nein! Nein! *bites hand*
"Mr. President, I need to talk to you about the nuclear weapons program in--"
"AAAUGH!! NUKES! WMDs! WMDs!! AL-QAEDA!!!" *hides under desk*
Kinda like that commercial where the guy finds out they can save $1 million dollars by putting one less olive in every jar they sell
Actually, I remember about some airline saving quite a bit by eliminating something from their salads. I don't remember the details, though...
Or both, that way you'd get what you want and couldn't be sued. 'Course, you also couldn't fulfill the ubiquitous step:
5. Profit!

This is why I don't play most FPSs. Guys walk around and wait to be shot. (Can you say "Halo" and "Sniper"?)
As long as you still get paid, of course.

Last time I checked, it was illegal to not unsubscribe someone. (Of course, they can always sell your address to their partners)
Whoops, read the title wrong. Thought you meant hackers of schools, which is me. (Yes; I'm working on hacking my school.)
Hey, can you remove that blinking 12:00? I can't figure out how to get the damn thing to tell the time!
Speaking of school, let's do a little math. 54($50 (usual textbook price)) = $2700. 54($150-300 (PDA price)) = $8100-16200. Hmm.
