Does anybody really care which one of these lawyer scumbags prevails?

As a time-traveller from July 2010, I can assure you that ... (blah blah blah ...)

WHO WON THE FUCKIN' SUPER BOWL, FER CHRISSAKE?!!

I can swear I hear chairs being thrown around. Sounds like it's coming from the NW US.

With a formal background in EE, a self-taught programmer and currently working in a mechanical industrial field, I am most impressed with engineering disciplines of which I am least knowledgeable. I am rarely if ever WOWed by a circuit design. Occasionally, I am impressed by a well-conceived, executed and documented software program (one of my favorites is the Apache project). But I marvel most at innovative and clever mechanical design.

"Would it be pedantic and annoying of me ... "

Yes. Yes it would.

(sort of like "Yogi-isms only not clever or funny, just stupid bullshit)

Right after the stock market crash of 1929, FDR went on television to address the American people. Of course I always wondered what the Secretary of the Navy would talk about on TV, especially since the only person who might have been able to watch it was Philo T. Farnsworth.

Awww, I thought the single page version was shortened. How can the product of the public school system be expected to maintain his attention span through the entire text?

"And don't forget that bars and pubs force beer through to there pumps using large compressed cylinders of CO2. Does anyone know?"

Where do you suppose bottled CO2 comes from? The same place to which it returns. The air. This looks like an April Fool's post (but you never know). It's really stupid but it's not that funny or clever.

The votes are in. The cutoff point for new knowledge has passed.

We have to have a cutoff point. Otherwise we might discover we were wr... wr... misinterpreted and taken out of context.

How could he have died in obscurity if we're discussing him today? I'm still trying to find out who, from the US, invented the automobile (according to Obama). Now, *THAT GUY* died in obscurity.

... I'd buy one of their dog-shit cars or invest in their dog-shit stock. They haven't made a decent car or sensible strategic business decision in 40 years. It's bad enough my tax $s are supporting this corpse, what happens when the Volt doesn't sell even WITH subsidies? The solution: more incentives to buy GM cars and disincentives to buy the car you REALLY want.

Extinctions are essential in nature and in business, and GM need to become extinct. They're already dead. Why can't everybody see that?

Authorities are generally stupid and dangerous.

Of course. We know that from all the sci-fi movies.

"perhaps we should outsource our entire government to buddhist monks"

Those crooks?!!
