Texas is out for smiles as well. They also discriminate against glasses, which is funny as besides that photo I don't know the last time I was out in public without mine on. Actually get a better hit from matching technology if the picture of me was wearing them.

Thats not entirely true... It is possible for civilians to own fully automatic weapons, however there are a limited number of them available (nothing produced after 1986, has to have been registered before then), the costs are usually astronomical (12-16k is average for a m-16 style weapon), only certain states allow it, and current wait times to get the paperwork processed is about 6 months. But it is possible... technically.

Its actually a lot hard to be a sysadmin than most developers thing...

Bookers is without a doubt proof that god loves us. A drop of water or two to unlock the flavor, and your in for a good night.

Yes. It sucked.

Couldnt the same requirements be placed on you to show it isn't made up/corrupt?

Warn them to say the hell out of Sysadmining. AKA the place where your considered a cost center, constantly under threat of downsizing, and basically only remembered when you need to spend money or something goes horrifically wrong. I hate to say it but I wish someone had sat me down 15 ago a years ago and warned me out of the whole IT field.

Shotgun with slugs. Will punch a hole about an inch across thru the drive, and after 3-4 of them there is no way anyone, even a 3 letter agency is recovering that. And its a lot of fun...
