  1. What do you have against Drew Henson? Are you one of those "anti-Yankee" folks?
  2. You don't think lynch mobs, cross burnings, fire bombings of black churches qualify as terrorism?
  3. I think he should go to the Cowboys. They seem to be collecting QB's named Drew...
  4. The Schindlers accused him of such in their 2002 emergency motion, based on a 1991 bone scan.
  5. Wow, high schools have declined in writing level that much since I graduated?
  6. It's a shame really. That money could be better spent on brain research to perhaps help people recover from brain injuries. Instead it's spent tilting at windmills...
  7. If it was abuse that led to her being in the PVS, how is it that Terri and Michael managed to win the malpractice suit? If there were any evidence of abuse, the Doctors could have (and certainly would have) easily brought that out in their defense...
  8. If they are devout Catholics, why did they encourage Michael to date other women? From the 3rd GAL's report: and I just stumbled across this great blog from a Florida attorney. I'd say this is a must-read for anyone repeating the rhetoric and accusations from both sides of the case: http://abstractappeal.com/schiavo/infopage.html
  9. I knew you were nothing but trouble from the first post I saw of yours, but never imagined you'd be that bad....
  10. How big is your MIL that you could hide behind her? 7'? Or did you mean figuratively? For the record, no.
  11. I've sent comments through Yahoo! Sports and scout.com asking if his "style" truly represents their banners well. I was only able to use the "comments" page, so it's probably just as effective as hitting my head against the wall, but I feel like I've done something... I realize he may not get paid for his pearls, but I would hope that Yahoo! Sports has a set of standards above his drivel, and scout.com is a service that they pay for...Maybe not, but again, a windmill worth tilting toward.
  12. Yeah, that was on the front page of the Batavia Daily News.
  13. If you like your games a little more violent: http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/flash/pingu2.php Warning: violent version. There is blood....
  14. Let's just say that some call them "love handles" and leave it at that, mmmkay?
  15. I'm sorry Fez, but I do not see the business sense in offering only "rentals" of entertainment media, unless they do it at the same price that they sell stuff now. Think about it. In music, their target market for a CD will pretty much have forgotten a CD they bought today within 3 months. Why would they pay to "rent" it again, when there's new music to be had? Think about all the CD's you've sold/given away/are collecting dust... Similar things go for movies. I buy when it's something I might watch every year or so, but I would not own most of the movies I have now if they "expired" in three months. I have movies I bought a year ago that I haven't even watched yet, so I just don't think I'd bother. I would either catch it when it was on the tube (even in the Fezmid-predicted future where TIVO is banned...) or, if there was a specific time that I'd really want to watch it, I'd rent it from a video store (which I would guess would be cheaper....and how would they rationalize the business case of "battling" with rental stores, which are a major source of income as well). Think what you want Chris, but I can't envision where there's any rational business justification for a time-expire only business...
  16. That game has been around for quite a while. There are some really interesting (and bloody) retakes on this particular one. Original (as well as other Pengiun/yeti/etc) game can be found at http://www.yetisports.org/ At least you got the link to work.
  17. You can just type the URL: http://www.stadiumwall.com/ and it will automatically create a link from it, or you can use the button above the text window (where you type your post...not available on "quick reply") labelled "http://" It will ask you for the URL and a word to replace it. Then it will look like this.
  18. Fabien Cousteau agrees...he's actually built a shark sub to inter-mingle with these beasts: http://www.deeperblue.net/article.php/467/3
  19. The seagull strikes again....
  20. Wow, Metallica partied with Skeech and Urkel?
  21. Let's go with artistry of a different medium, photography. Why don't you try taking that nice Olan Mills portrait of you and your family down to Wal-Mart and make a copy on their Kodak Picture Maker? I bet you the clerk will not let you buy the print, if the clerk even lets you make it. Why? Because it is illegal. I bet, if you read all the screens on said machine you will at some point see a warning that says it is illegal to make unauthorized reproductions of professional photos. Oh, and by the way I just picked up a random CD in my collection. On the back of it are the words: "All rights reserved. Any unauthorized reproduction is a violation of applicable laws." Rather succinct, but sounds like a license agreement to me. BTW, the "limited time-frame" license for entertainment has already been attempted. Don't you remember DivX DVD's?
  22. Legally binding or not a living will at least documents your personal wishes so as to leave no doubt as to what you want. Of course, Terri's parents stated in court that they'd go to any length and cost to keep her alive, even if it was against her wishes, so maybe it would not have done too much good here except to end the external debate over Michael using this as a money grab/save.
  23. Picking on all the guys that are in line dressed as their favorite stripper?
  24. Her contract demands were too high. I heard her replacement in the sequel is Bea Arthur.
