I hope they don't, I like their email because of their spam filter, but the way they seem to do things lately, they'll probably just drop them entirely and just link to Hotmail and Google Images like the Dating and Jobs now just link to Match and Monster.

Oops! Sorry boss, I'll probably get to work after lunch.

I live in a hurricane prone area with reactors near the coast and was comforted by the fact that they said they shut them down when there was a big one forecasted to make landfall nearby. With hurricane season coming soon, I'm going to be a lot more concerned. If a tsunami can damage the cooling system to the point of failure, why couldn't a category 5 hurricane, with a strong enough storm surge?

Why is all anyone talks about is what kind of energy to use, and not why do we have to continue to use so much?

Started immediately, press any key and then 2 and your game starts immediately. Solid state cartridges were so fast. I'd love to see them make a comeback more than TI BASIC itself though. Windows and CD-ROM games, it might take 5 minutes before I'm playing. Consoles are not much better at this either.

With only a group of good looking women:
We make a 90% chance of making it there and a 1% chance of lasting more than 10 days

With just one good looking woman:

With a mixed group:
We make a 90% chance of making it there and a 1% chance of lasting more than 25 years

Alone:
No way, I'm sure I'd go hopelessly insane if I did survive the trip, let alone living on a planet by myself.

With a bunch of guys:
I have less than 90% chance of making it there because I'm already dying of some incurable disease or very old and well past my life expectancy...

I used to have a Nokia 6 years ago or so. Was a really nice phone. Did the actual phone thing way better than any phone I've had since. Just about everyone who had a cell phone back then had a Nokia, mainly because that was the cheapest one you could get when you went to a cell phone store. These days, it's some other brand. You can still get a Nokia, but it's some expensive smartphone Nokia that no one wants. If someone wants a smartphone they'll buy a Blackberry or an iPhone. If they actually want a phone, they would buy a Nokia, but they don't seem to offer cheap Nokia's anymore...that was their market, they should have embraced it, rather than go after Blackberry and iPhone's....

I think an iPad is an iPod Touch that won't fit in my pocket. I like my iPod Touch but wish it were a little bigger. I understand why it is exactly the same size as an iPhone, but I'd like something in between. Maybe they could call the iPad Mini, or maybe maxiPod?

Maybe if the penalty was the death penalty and a billion dollar fine to the company responsible, or the country and all it's citizens harboring the SPAMMER...

A Mars colony would seem to me that it would be more likely to work if it was tried first on the Moon. With supply lines being so much shorter, eventually a fairly decent size colony could be built, in a much shorter time frame. It really seems far less complicated than building the ISS. Supply ships wouldn't have to dock and all that, just land somewhere fairly close.

All the supplies to build it either place could be sent beforehand. I can see support for a one way trip to Mars being a lot higher if there was already plenty of food, water, and oxygen there. We already have sent a bunch of other crap there. Why not send a ship or two with some bottled water, and food just in case? Or maybe some fine wine? Or some whiskey or vodka or something?

Then what happens when one needs to reformat and start from scratch? Most people reading this here would use IE6 to download Firefox, or at least IE7 or IE8, but the general public would probably get the SuperCoolUnsupportedBrowserVirus from that site they went to that made them have to reformat in the first place.

As much as I hate tickets, I think they and all these other states with budget problems need to tell their cops to step it up a notch and give a lot more speeding tickets and such...

I know an ex-cop who claims there's no such thing as quotas...in these tough times, there need to be, and they need to be way, way up there...

Let everyone in, and let everyone drink....

But I'm sure someone will object to that too...

I'm pretty sure SuperSpywareBrowser2009 isn't named that, but it surely exists...but one in the top X amount is if you let X get big enough. Is Microsoft really supposed to add SuperSpywareBrowser2009 to their list. Then they'd be the ones getting sued, rather than SuperSpywareBrowser2009. It might very well be the #6 browser in the market...

They went the wrong way with this though, I wonder if they could have gotten around all of this by installing Firefox, and Safari, etc but not given a desktop shortcut...or something...or even given them one, most people would still click on the blue e...

There was someone who thought Smart Appliances were a smart idea? They've only been talking about this for over a decade...it's just now people are figuring out it's a dumb idea? Why would anyone want to subject their appliances, of all things, to omething that's completely unnecessary, and will cost a lot of money to fix when it glitches, which it most likely will, like they did with their cars? I'm sure anyone who's had to pay for an expensive repair for a car problem, due to a computer problem, will never buy one of these appliances, that is until, like cars, they are the only models offered...

He should have said he thought they were breaking into it and he was taking a picture to send to the news and police and asked to see their identification. Only idiots would break into an ATM in front of people and not be wearing security guard uniforms.
