And then there are those of us in the market for sex slaves, but don't know who to turn to in order to make such a purchase. I for one, would like to subscribe to his newsletter in these matters.

All these worlds are yours
EXCEPT EUROPA.
Use them together.
Use them in peace.

Although these days the hardware is System 390/Z-series, but I still login via TSO, I review COBOL code with comments going into 1980 (and yes, they all have Y2K patches)... The financial industry *never* throws anything away (especially if it's still making them money). Except programmers. Those they throw away.

5 Million Years to Earth.
We are the Martians.

The other reply you are castigating has a point, and I'm open to his suggestion that we keep our minds open. As soon as they provide CONCRETE EVIDENCE of such a "magic man in the sky", then I can be turned to their postulation.

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, and so far they haven't provided much. When there's proof of god published in a scientific journal, along with repeatable experiments garnering repeatable results, then I'm ready to accept that as theory.

After all, he was palling around with a known terrorist.

In fact, given the 6 degrees of separation factor, almost *every* American has an association with a terrorist, and even if not, the definition of terrorist can be widely expanded to make sure that you're an associate of a terrorist. Think about how many names are on that no-fly list...

Why does every one of these people campaign on a platform of "government is the problem, reduce the size of the government!", and then once in office, immediately create bills that INCREASE the size of government, pry into your personal life such as who you sleep with, and if you're a woman, even when you can have sex, and generally make it so that government *is* indeed the problem because *they* made it so?

Since the middle class has been decimated, this is how business of the future will run... now that they've fleeced the rest of us, big companies will sue other big companies and that's their ticket to profitability and stock price rises.

What I'd rather know about that ad, is that him walking along the beach with the girl in the blue bikini with the really nice ass?

And then sue anyone who reads it without the license fee being paid. Could be worth a million dollars per letter if you follow the RIAA enough. Just to be sure though, make up some song lyrics as part of the letter and you could at least get ASCAP to sue on your behalf.

I'm surprised no one here has yet mentioned Captain Power and the Soldiers of the Future -- a spectacular kids show that had a surprisingly complex plotline considering the goal of the show was mostly to sell toys.

We had only one season, which essentially ended with a cliffhanger (although it was pretty obvious "Pilot" died), but, if there had been the funds to do a second season, any thoughts about where you would have gone with the show?

Defense Lawyer: I'd like to call the prosecutor to the witness stand.

Prosecutor: Objection

Judge: This is completely out of bounds.

Defense Lawyer: Your honor, if you would just allow this for a minute...

Judge: Agreed.

(Prosecutor takes witness stand)

Defense Lawyer: Exactly which law is my client accused of breaking?

Prosecutor: The computer security and fraud act.

Defense Lawyer: And exactly how did my client break this law?

Prosecutor: He hacked into the NY Times and stole email addresses.

Defense Lawyer: You misunderstand me. I'm asking for you to describe exactly what actions were taken by my client to hack into the NY Times and steal email addresses, because I am not convinced that any so called hacking took place.

Prosecutor: Ernmmmm. Uh...

Defense Lawyer: Move for a mistrial your honor!

This is a really good idea, I think you should start a kickstarter, or a ponzi scheme, whichever seems easier.

Next up: Russians "deport" American astronauts from ISS, as they are the only country with a manned space flight program. How ironic; we spend many billions to build it, and then scrap our only way of getting to it. Nice plan. No wonder USA is number 37.

Someday USA might be a great country, but this decade and the next is not that day.

USA is now filled with religious, science-denying blowhards that will turn this country into a backwater 3rd world with nuclear weapons and offshore billionaires that own the government. Just look at Greenspan's comments. We'll all be shooting each other for food in a few years, while CEOs sit on piles of cash that guarantee they are comfortable for 6 or 7 generations.
