Make sure they understand that Flash pr0n is not as good as mpeg pr0n and that it's OK to wait 10 minutes to get a whole DVD verses just 3:30 of a movie. Also remind them that EVERYONE on the internet is a 45 year old pervert who wants to touch their private bits. Oh and tell them you work on airplanes.
But this isn't a problem created by No Child Left Behind - this shit has being going on since God only knows when in American Education. Stupid kids get all the attention and smart kids get to sit quietly and wait... the worst part of it is the mediocre kids get no attention and they're the ones who truly should get the most. They don't have to be mediocre they could improve.
I don't know when American Education started striving for mediocrity but it's clear that's what's going on. Any of us who were bored out of their skulls in school can attest to that.
Who gives a fuck? Show up to work on time. Stop texting during 15 minutes meetings. Basically STFU and do your job well enough so that I trust you to make your own decisions. Stop questioning everything because at the end of the day your MySpace page experience is bullshit.
Pong! then Hack then Adventure... but really immersed? Really engaged? Zork. I didn't eat. It was all I cared about. When Zork II came out I "tested" every possible permutation of the spinning room. I wasn't even playing the game, I was seeing what would happen...::Fear::I don't know the word fear
Once again let me state, the FCC needs to be abolished. It serves no purpose. It failed at it's only given task. It is a pointless commission that loses billions of dollars. I mean literally loses. Hey where's that two billion we got siphoning off the phone bills of Americans? It was just here a minute ago I swear.
The truth is Global Warming is just a theory, just like The New Ice Age was a few decades ago and Silent Spring was before that... Unfortunately the Frosty's give creedence by way of their idiocy to people just as admant about their wacky beliefs.
1) We got another one 2) THIS is the October Surprise 3) Yet another thing George Bush couldn't protect 4) Pork, the only white meat left 5) This is a result of the trade imbalance 6) 42
Real estate is not the only paid category. Jobs postings in the largest markets are also revenue producers. (Although at $25 it can't be beat) You are correct MetFan!
"'So Dad,' [the 10-year-old son] asked. 'What is the difference between Linux and Windows?'
Well son the big difference is that all your friends will be playing games and posting nude videos of themselves and you'll be loading kernels and learning the intricacies of Sokoban but hey, no viruses in Pine!
Old people just want their computers to work. No driver loading, virus scanning, malware removing... just plug the camera in and press a button to publish it on the web yadda yadda.
Shit, when I get home I just want my computer to work.

Then NCLB is actually a step in the right direction. But I'm still not wrong because all of this has been happening long before NCLB.

I cannot, in good conscience, buy a new computer until they put new pr0n on the internet!
I have one. Complete with You Don't Know Jack stickers! Want it? Email me.
I'm sorry your user number is too high for me to help you. ;)
Good luck. They're in bins at places like Staples, etc.
I use them at work and home. The Trackball Explorer is fantastic. And yes, playing games with it rocks like Gibraltar!
I use it on my Powerbooks, and the FreeBSD server I run on the basement... I realize this is sacrelig, but the things kick ass.
I'm an American Goddammit! I demand to be TOLD things.
and I canceled HBO.
Not just because the ending sucked but because there's nothing else I watch on those channels.
But that episode really sucked. I get it, "You won't know it's coming. Everything will just go black."
I don't care.
Besides I really wanted to see Meadow and AJ beheaded. There I said it. I can't take it back. It's out there.
virtual rape is not a crime.
if you are being virtually raped you should log off.
there. that's fixed.
On the off chance the kid is a nut job I guess you need to check him out. I'm not sure you need to arrest him....
Besides the obvious Content Filters how are you blocking them? A moderately bright young chap could proxify their way around that.

Anything under 2 minutes do it

Has nothing to say abut Credit Reports. Anyone with 100USD can get your credit report pulled. Take a look.

I said for a long time, "No, no, Y2K was fine it was Win2K we had all the trouble with."
ding ding ding, we have a winnah!
