no, but mitt romney does?
No, but he can become one in the afterlife if he has enough wives on Earth prior to his death.
I would switch, but then I'd have to rewrite my hosts files.
Executions are not murder. Why? There was a trial.
So executions are not unethical when they are approved by a government. I would be very, very careful with that line of reasoning.
in some neighbourhoods the wait time actually increases along with the surge price increase.
It makes sense that neighborhoods with a relative oversupply of drivers would see their wait times increase, approaching the wait times in neighborhoods with higher demand.
In San Francisco when they implemented surge pricing for parking, prices went up in some neighborhoods and down in others. But prices on average fell.
So you're saying that a dead 2 year old, who had already had half her brain removed and the other half was seriously damaged, and dunking that in liquid nitrogen with the hope that someday a new body could be built for her and she'd be perfectly normal again
Oh
I don't know how the fuck anyone falls for it. Really... Why would they think that even if their bodies were preserved that long, and the technology was invented to create what's missing, and repair all the damage done by the freezing process, that anyone would spend the 14 bazillion New Earth credits (or whatever currency there is in futureland) to bring some old fucker back?
In her case, the could have just saved a DNA sample. The story is clear about the condition her brain was in. Half was gone. The other half critically damaged.
I'd have to think that it would be questionable in futureland to resurrect a 20th century person, even if they were in pristine condition. Say 21 years old with much above average intelligence, who was taught everything that there is to know, with no medical issues, no trauma. Just frozen as-is without cellular damage. Why would anyone opt to wake them up? Just to ask "Hey, so what was life like in the 20th century?"
The whole cryogenics "industry" is a huge con.
If these people are religious in the least, they'd have to believe that the soul was trapped in that frozen body until it was awakened. If it wasn't, there would be no reason to reincarnate them. What if they picked the wrong part to freeze? Like, if the soul was really in the liver, or maybe in the spinal cord between C1 and C3. Oops, sorry, we cut that part off.
And if they aren't religious in the least, why bother? So they can wake up as a curiosity in the future? "Hi Cro-Magnon. Fire hot. We have spoken languages you don't understand. And try to wrap your mind around these three seashells. No more poison ivy toilet paper for you. No, don't hit females with a club to make them your mate/slave."
But how many of the entries on that page are hoaxes about being hoaxes?
Much like the turtles, it's hoaxes all the way down.

But there doesn't seem to be a way to make it permanent.
Just reviewed tearablepuns.org. I laughed, i cried, they were tear-able.
Here's the ones i liked, some reworded:
(Yes, i reviewed all of them.)
(I rejected some because i've heard them before.)
So, your browser remarked on the replaceability of replaceability?
His Nexus 6 wrapped in toilet paper was hidden in the adjacent stall...
Hopefully a Roy, not a Leon.
As i am having a harder time reading things up close, it seemed like a good time to get new glasses. Off to a local optometrist i went, a member of the community, and got my new prescription. I warned him i'd being going to Zenni for the frames, which he seemed to not be enthused about. Though he mentioned the reason being quality, and i do believe he was earnest in his comments, the loss of profit from selling designer frames had to be in the backgr
So you're saying it wasn't hyper quantum sticktation of the flux attitude gimble during the multiphasic delay sequence?
Damn, I should write science fiction. Or maybe I could work for the media. Both string scientific sounding words that mean absolutely nothing.
I'm thinking they need to figure out a better way rather than landing it vertical. Maybe when they get it that close, they could do some sort of net capture, rather than hoping it will stay upright. It would solve some of the more delicate problems. That could create all kinds of new problems though.
