yea, 'think of the mosquitos' doesnt work for me. kill em all. Im all for using a trillion dollars to create death lasers, and then modifying the shark species to fly so we can mount them.
i think the second good reason is killing mosquitos. the first is the flying sharks with fricken laser beams!

Comment Re:I always love failed demos of "drop proof" lapt (Score 1) 113

I think id be neat to have one of these, although i wouldnt want to drop it. Ive had my Dell inspiron for 5 years now, ad still works great. Although i have never dropped it and treat it like a baby. Its too bad people are saying Dell is going down hill. Ive never had a problem with mine, and i know of alot of satified customers. I guess i might have to look around when i go to buy my next laptop, if dell is going to be going cheap.

TI-83 Plus Silver Edition ... Bought it for Highschool, only on my second set of batteries in 4 years.. it can add.. and subtract.. i think.. who cares, its got "block Dude" on it!
Other than that, if i do anything thats more advanced that basic math, i use a pen and paper, that way i can visually see all my steps.

I would put money on it to say, Metallica is one of the greatest rock bands. Maybe not now, but since 1981, how many records have the sold. And even today, can they not pack 30k - 50k into a stadium, everytime? who else can do that? Maybe im urguing with a bunch of people that like Britney spears or classic rock. Ive listen to metallica since i was 6, and everywhere i go, everyone knows who Metallica is.
Their sound might have changed, and they might not be as heavy as they once were, but they still have some wicked guitar licks. Lars is awesome on the drums, and their lyrics are pretty damn good.
If you dont like metallica thats fine, go listen to some pop music.

Im not sure how the copyright for music works, but i would think if you own the CD, you have a right to the music, and downloading it would be legal, because you bought the right to have it. I would also think that Lars owns a copy of Death Magnetic.
and for the whole Napster cry, get over it, Metallica stood up for what was right and im glad they did it. just like anyone else that holds a copyright or patent on something, its there to protect you, and when people bypass that and download illegally, something needs to be done.
Also, about a week after DM came out, i googled "Death magnetic CD" and the first link was a download to the whole CD.
If you dont like DM, dont buy it. Metallica Rocks, Pirating is wrong, and You suck.

Horses have an infinte amount of legs. two in the back, and fore in the front. 6 legs is an odd number for a horse to have.
the only number that is both odd and even, is infinity.
I normally count in base 10, because otherwise i have to take off my shoes.

Although i havent played the first FEAR, i think im going to go and buy it. It looks fun. Ive always liked the FPSs. I remeber shaking (from adrenaline) when i beat the boss of the first episode of Wolf3D (i was like 7?) and then on to getting up at like 5am to play Quake before school. Know after owning all the Quakes,Doom trilogy, Wolfenstein, ET, all the half-lifes, i think im ready for another game. Its coming out for PC right? know i just hope it will run on Wine(cedega).
