You also have a choice of salary, if you're lucky. Don't want to pay 30% income tax? Quit lawyering and start flipping burgers. That $200,000/year will go to $20,000/year and your income taxes will go way down. You choose to earn the big bucks, then you can pay the taxes that come with them. If it's not worth it to you then take a lower paying job.
But that is NOT equality. Why should one be rewarded or punished by the store based on what they buy? People should pay the same for every item. We should not charge more for a Ferrari than for toilet paper.
You know the funny thing? I don't even know what that stupid ad was for. It could have been for the candy, a truck, some kind of beer....I don't even remember. Talk about wasted money.
You think that's old....I use one of these: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TI-30/...or a TI-83, depending on my mood. The TI-30 often takes maybe 1/2 of a second to complete a simple calculation.
That's a rather unfair generalization. I'd say we average about.6wit. There are maybe 10% with their wits about them, 10% totally witless, about 55% are half-wits, and 25% are.8wits. Unfortunately the witless and the halfwits come out in droves, and most vote strait-ticket for whomever opposes gay people and reason.
Today I'm left feeling dirty and betrayed having been opposed to that worthy bill yesterday... not that I could have made a difference in the vote anyhow. It's refreshing, though, that most of the Democrats supported it.
No, thousands of federal employees don't ride trains and subways every weekday from much of Virginia and Maryland to their places of work, such as the Pentagon, where they're integral to the continued running of the government. And no, it's not a simple task to board these at myriad locations with any sort of baggage you want. No, you can't kill hundreds of people in one go extremely easily by bombing a train coughspaincough because they're so underdefended.
Surely we need to spend billions more to protect planes in case someone actually manages to sneak a Stinger missile launcher into downtown NYC and shoot down a plane, even though that sort of thing hasn't successfully happened in recent memory!/Sarcasm
No, crapload is imperial. The metric unit is "ass ton", not to be confused with the imperial "asstonne", which is roughly equivalent to.9 ass tons and is exactly equal to a gross craploads.
If New Line is doing no wrong they have no reason not to allow an audit, as it will not hurt them in any way.
Addendum: This is a very special case of "if they're not doing anything wrong, they have nothing to hide" because of the contractual nature of the issue and the fact of the lawsuit. I don't support that quote in general as it relates to privacy issues.
Wow, that's a pretty big assumption. You think that PJ is using the exact same contract as the author of Forrest Gump did? What nonsense. He's not even suing for more money, just an impartial audit of New Line's finances for the movies. Given his behavior, and their behavior, I'd say that New Line is the sleazyn greedy bastard party in this dispute. If he wins this suit, and he's not entitled to more money, he gets no more money. If New Line is doing no wrong they have no reason not to allow an audit, as it will not hurt them in any way.
They really did do a good job with that in X-Men 3. Also, Since Galdalf in that body is thousands of years old, I don't think they need computer effects there. I doubt Ian McKellen will have visibly aged much in the gap between the making of LotR and the Hobbit.
The entire point of having a console over a computer is that any game that is released for the console is guaranteed to run on it, and run well, whether it's released 6 months or years after the console's release. General purpose computers don't tend to work that way. Therefore, if Sony were to do that, all the newer, better games would be unplayable on the old consoles, thus the early adopters get screwed out of all newer games. Typical Sony.
So then you pay them off with whatever you can scrounge up, but fall behind on your bills because you don't want you legs broken. That starts to impact your credit report.
I got a $3500 Miata. Fun to drive, looks beautiful, great milage and cheap to maintain. Ditch the Kia; get yourself a roadster. (Unless you have kids....)
"I'd rather be hated then follow your advice on "how not to be hated". I think I'll correct grammar with a more snotty tone because of that. You didn't give me a life, so stop trying to show me how to live."
Why do both? Wouldn't you rather be hated than follow his advice?

Someone mod parent up. While going back to to the moon may, at some point, maybe, be worth it, that time sure as hell isn't now (or in 10 years).

Makes about the same amount of sense.

good riddance to CG where it's neither needed nor wanted.

I believe that the term is "he fell ass-backwards into the Presidency".
I haven't seen a BSOD in years in either XP or Linux. Have you considered that you may suck at life?*

Um.... don't you kill the Elder God at the end of Defiance? Or do I need to play it again?

Coming soon, only on HD-DVD in April!

Unfortunately, non-spike-lined sexbot vaginas were patented by another company. Better hope Apple is willing to risk the lawsuit.

Simple solution: use enough ram so you don't need the swap file. Unless you're in Ubuntu (and maybe others), which, iirc, doesn't let you not use one.
