i don't suppose a highly motivated, global organization that specializes in terror warrants some poor sap having to look at your ass. and, btw, i don't see how PUBLIC security has anything to do with someone bugging your PRIVATE residence, but, by all means, keep rocking the tin foil hat like its fucking 1984
we are cool with sex, as long as the lights are off. in gta3, for example, when you hired a hooker you just saw the car rocking; in our sitcoms it's fine to imply the act, just as long as we don't have to look at it. if it was any other way I'd run for the hills...have you seen what our population looks like?

Mohamed Zaian writes "Canonical, the commercial sponsor of Ubuntu, announced today that Ubuntu 9.04 Desktop Edition is free to download from Thursday 23 April. Also announced were the simultaneous releases of Ubuntu 9.04 Server Edition and Ubuntu 9.04 Netbook Remix (UNR). Ubuntu 9.04 Desktop Edition delivers a range of feature enhancements to improve the user experience. Shorter boot speeds, some as short as 25 seconds, ensure faster access to a full computing environment on most desktop, laptop and netbook models. Enhanced suspend-and-resume features also give users more time between charges along with immediate access after hibernation. Intelligent switching between Wi-Fi and 3G environments has been broadened to support more wireless devices and 3G cards, resulting in a smoother experience for most users."

they know i have erectile-dysfunction and am also insecure about my bust size, and on a more dubious note, I am most likely personally responsible for all Nigerian immigration to the US. Oh yeah, I also get mail from the future...wait a second, I'm thinking about my old yahoo mail account. seriously though, how much energy is wasted hosting my personal collection of over 100,000 unread spam emails.
I think the "throwing shit against the wall to see what sticks" method would be awesome, provided they let you read the first 20 or so pages. With a good user rating system I really see no need for publishers.
"RTCW: Enemy Territory" should be good enough for anyone. Its free, will run at about 1000fps on modern hardware, and has the essentials of a FPS without the fluff. auf wiedersehen! ET
he held racist views, but he also said of black persons "but in the right to eat the bread without leave of anybody else which his own hand earns, he is my equal" in other words, he didn't let his prejudice get in the way of policy.
