Thanks for the nostalgia! I remember when people tried to claim that with a straight face back in the 80s, but no one believed it even then. Can you imagine that someone actually said that ridiculous crap in seriousness once? I'm glad we've moved past those ludicrously mind-bending contortions and can laugh about them now, knowing full well that no one actually thinks that way anymore.

Bzzt. I can share hugs, music, friendship, laughter, pain, and joy with others, but I wouldn't call any of those "possessions".

That presumes scarcity. If I share your post on Twitter, you are not deprived of it. Neither would I be.

Whatever the environment, there are jobs that require someone just to be there waiting for something unusual to happen. Even in the nuclear missile bunkers, I bet they spend about 95% of their time sitting around waiting for an alarm they hope never comes. You can only clean so much before it's time to lean. So what if OP works in a clean room? I bet there are plenty of "I'm paid to sit here" jobs in there, too.

When they get angry, they can become hulking MONSTER storms

Well this is Murka and here we have freedum and speeches -- things you could never understand

Considering that a surface mission is completely unfeasible and that they would effectively be little more than equipment operators, it seems the only benefit to a manned mission would be "less latency" in controlling the equipment vs drone style operators based here on Earth. Personally, aside from "bragging rights" for pulling off the first manned Venus Mission I do not see anything that could remotely justify the risk of life and massive financial costs a manned mission would incur.

Assault and wrongful arrest is negligible? I hope to god some thug with a badge beats the shit out of you and locks you up just because you were at the wrong place at the wrong time. Then you can come here and tell us how negligible it was.

We have refillable Keurig coffee cups and grind our own beans. Our own setup is virtually trash free other than the empty bags of beans.

Harper is the finest PM this country has had in years.
I hope he gets another majority next election, too. Trudeau Jr. would bankrupt the country,

I ran FreeNAS for ages and also moved to NAS4Free. Scanning over the changes I still don't see any compelling reason to switch back.

I'd like to know how the kid fared on E.T. for the Atari 2600.

PVR hard disk is dying and I refuse to pay a bunch of money to Shaw for another. Easier to torrent/usenet TV shows and not have to suffer through commercials.

Thanks, forgot about that. Still, auto-torrenting to the server to the Y&R folder is just easier.

We're in Canada, CBS only works in the US. :(

Don't laugh, but TPB was the only place could get The Young and The Restless for my lady if she missed it on TV.

If anyone has suggestions for another place to get it, please comment.
