  1. Jumped the Shark on OMNI Magazine Remembered · · Score: 1

    Sadly as a growing adolescent it became clear to me Omni had jumped the shark when they showed full page color illustrations of dinosaurs mating...as a featured article. Omni, I loved you, but that was the end.

  2. Re:Dangerous, huh? on Wearable Motorcycle Design · · Score: 1

    Bill that's exactly what I was thinking. I've seen a couple of motorcycle accidents caused by tire treads coming off of big rigs. In this system the rider wouldn't stand a chance of being able to avoid a direct hit to his/her person.

  3. Re:Provigil. on Cognition Enhancer Research · · Score: 1

    B12 might be the answer then. Thanks, I'll give it a try.

  4. Re:Provigil. on Cognition Enhancer Research · · Score: 3, Interesting

    I recently started taking Provigil for fatigue issues related to another condition. Without a doubt....I'm certainly more alert....but it does not help with fatigue. If you're tired and taking Provigil, you're simply going to be tired and awake. NOT a good combo. It's not a great panacea cure all .....but it does help make a formerly dysfunctional person a bit more functional. As mentioned above...it will give you a headache. It does me. They're worse in the beginning but seem to taper off to a mild headache as the weeks goes by. It's an unusual headache that Ibuprofen doesn't seem to really take the edge off of.

  5. Re:...national secrete... on China to Regulate Internet Map Publishing · · Score: 1

    I agree China has sovereign power as to it's borders....but I'd have to draw the line at saying we can't look over the fence....Think ... if Mynamar/Burma had dones so would we know as much as we do about it's regressive Junta regime?

  6. Lie down with dogs..... on Comcast Proposes Self Regulation and P2P Bill of Rights · · Score: 1

    Simply put...If you lie down with dogs...you get up with fleas.

  7. Re:Slashdot ID... on Dealing With an IT Bully · · Score: 1

    I'd swear I was in that band....though in my band...it was the lead singer/songwriter....who used to say, "Shit for Brains". So what else could we do with the prima donna....We hid dog poo in his guitar.

  8. Re:Oh yeah on $90 Asus Sound Card Whips Creative's Best · · Score: 1

    Sadly though ASUS has the SLOWEST website I've ever used for a tech company. Downloads and updates take hours even over broadband.

  9. Tretonin? on Alligator Blood May Be Source of New Antibiotics · · Score: 1

    Finally, the Tau'ri get their own tretonin?

  10. Re:There could be a serious benefit on Material Converts Radiation Into Electricity · · Score: 1, Interesting

    One word.....Chernobyl Could it be used on something like that I wonder?

  11. Re:None of them are worth a damn. on Best Presidential Candidate, Democrats · · Score: 1

    Poor Matt. " ... she can't keep his mouth shut during her campaign." Obviously you're not in a relationship of equals. I'd sooner try to juggle grenades than try to shut my spouses mouth.

  12. Re:Ron Paul? on Best Presidential Candidate, Republicans · · Score: 1

    LOL...if this were digg I totally would have dugg your comment. I feel sorry for the Paulettes. What happen to them when political reality comes crashing in. They've been working to elect the unelectable rather than working to change the obvious choices.

  13. Re:When Wealthy Christians and Crackpots Attack! on Science Blogger Sued for Unfavorable Book Review · · Score: 1

    Sadly, only Speech is free...the ability to defend it cost's out the wazoo.

  14. Re:T-Mobile To Go. . . on Reasonable Pre-Paid Cellphones in the US? · · Score: 1

    Given that I hardly ever use a phone except when travelling, which I seem to be doing more and more of these day's, a pre-paid phone was the way to go. I'm currently using the 7-11 / Cingular co-marketed SpeakOut service. It was $99 bucks for the phone and preloaded minutes. Just like the GoPhone the minutes are good for 12 months. I also loaded about $200 hundred dollars on it. Eight months later I still have $72 left. If you need a decent cheap phone I can't recommend it enough.

  15. Secret's on Wired's Very Short Stories · · Score: 1

    His fingernails gone...secret's still intact.

  16. What about Tinkering in EverQuest ? on SOE CEO Responds To CBS Critiques · · Score: 1

    "There has never been a release by Sony Online Entertainment that has been incomplete."

    What about Everquest? I know for a fact that the "Tinkering" skill was never finished? During a clinic at the first EQ Fanfaire I specifically asked the designer why tinkering never seemed to get any attention...and his reply was, "Yeah we never did finish that did we? Tinkering is basically a dead end at the moment"

    When I got back home I simply cancelled my account and never went back.
