Now wait a minute here.I paid tax on my income when I earned the money from my regular job to buy something and then when I bought it I had to pay a sales tax and now I want to sell it and I have to pay taxes on it AGAIN???? That just does not seem right to me.
Great suggestions and if you look into the courses further you may see some of what you have suggested is there already!
'Linux/Unix 4: Scripting for Administrators Sed, Awk, and Perl'
This is the 4th part of the Linux/Unix Admin courses.
FWIW I started the Linux/Unix Admin courses Tuesday and Ive finished the first 3 already and I will start part 4 sometime today.
I've been working with linux on and off as a hobby mostly for the past 10 years and found the courses to be interesting and I did actually learn many new things and saw just how much I knew already:)
I'd recommend them to people vaguely familiar with linux that need to complete their admin skills and want some document to prove they have a clue.
now wait a minute here...if I can barely pay my property taxes now...how the F am I supposed to upgrade my property so the value is increased and then PAY MORE TAXES I can't afford??!!
If you have certain model DirecTV TiVo unints they can be easily(for me at least)hacked. Start looking here http://www.tivocommunity.com/tivo-vb/forumdisplay. php?f=8 Look for posts regarding the Zipper. This hack will enable the USB ports and add a bunch of features such as 30second skip,TiVoToGo,a web server,shell,telnet and so on You will need to purchase 1 or 2 ISO files but,the total for them was like $25
The R-10 model CAN NOT BE HACKED without a hardware modification....period! don't believe the hype...it's junk...get a cheapo used unit with no drive from http://www.weaknees.com/ and use your current drive in the R-10 or upgarde. I have 2 units with the Zipper on it and 350gig drives in each and it is heaven! Good Luck
That would work except for one problem....all the people that do the hiring have a degree from those colleges/universities and this would prove to the world that the degree isn't worth shit....not very likely to ever happen. "Higher learning" is a perpetual farce.....the people in power in major corporations have degrees so,they will not turn around one day and say that the degree from their school is useless and start hiring trade school graduates. "I had to learn the hard way and go into debt for 10 years so you do too or I won't hire you"
Printing it in a newspaper will show just how stupid people are thinking that these things are hard to do and that their government can somehow protect them.
IANAL but,as I thought I understood it,it's not exactly "legal" to "threaten to sue" I was told that it was safer to suggest that you might "explore your legal options" and to never,ever use the word sue or lawsuit. Since a lawsuit against any and all Novell customers and possibly Novell itself would pretty much destroy the company I'd say it is just as bad as robbing someone...or perhaps even worse.
If I walked into an office and told them they needed to pay me cause there's a possibility the place might get robbed I'd be in jail so fast it would make my head spin. Isn't this pretty much what MS has done here?
why not have the CPCC pay a tariff towards each legally purchased CD? Kind of like a reverse tax. They collect the money and then subsidize the CD sales. That would make sure that the truly more popular artists receive the money according to sales and not the radio stations play lists. just an idea but,it might work.
Ahhhh the good old days. C64's and those awesome Western Digital modems that ran at 450baud!! when you connected to another WD modem. and we thought that shit was Super fast! I think about those days often now...running a BBS in the Philly area was lots of fun. Anyone out there remember the NightOwl BBS group? I ran NightOwl 13(I think I was #13 anyway...lol) All you old Phreaks still have your copy of PhoneMan 8.0??
That's not really the point....the silly names are just a possible side benefit the "traps" are used so that any email coming into those accounts is automatically marked as spam and added to the spam assassin filter rules so the spammers get blocked system wide
I use Maia MailGuard and just set a bunch of spam traps in my html files. Any mail sent to these traps are automatically marked as spam and filtered according to your spam settings Some of the "traps" are super obvious too but,it works. here's a few: spamking@frodoslair.net dumbass@frodoslair.net idiotspammers@frodoslair.net
and so on.... I believe anyone that would sell these harvested addresses would have some pissed off customers when they saw these entries in the list!
Someone please mod the parent up! It's about time someone said this in all these voting machine stories the machines work just fine.....it's the people that program them that are at fault
I think they do this so we can hear the commercials while we are in the kitchen grabbing a snack or making a quick run to the bathroom Just a guess though and I do find it very annoying so I usually hit the 30second skip on the Tivo right away

In your examples you did not win, you simply did not lose as much.
In my opinion winning would be to still have everything you started with and more.
Thanks for serving your country and defending both of our rights to be an ass.

Does anyone else think this sounds very illegal?

I had it for the NES and I played it constantly for months

"Perhaps we should abandon teaching grammar and spelling altogether and see what changes then."
you mean like the Ebonics idea?
what ever did happen with that idea?
One word: Chernobyl
