  1. I think there's a "whats your type" thread where you can express your feelings for Oman.
  2. I did! But then again, I follow Big 12 football. I have a hunch that Lori knew too...
  3. This was a joke, to get pBills all wound up, right?
  4. While some people would always steal, the record companies aren't without blame here, either. They are charging consumers way too much money for a product with DRM and limited formats/quality, and refuse to switch to a viable online business model. There are three parts to high piracy rate to music: a.) its easy to pirate and not get caught, b.) the distribution model by the record labels is extremely poor and discourages honest people from buying, c.) their product is overpriced.
  5. And thus Nietzsche's grasp on humanity gets larger.
  6. He got handcuffed with the Paulson add-on.
  7. He's the founder of IONS, so take that as you may...
  8. Bowen was a pretty decent player, hope it translates to the NFL.
  9. Everyone needs to be led by government - its part of how humans adapt to governmental society, they learn over time to depend on government for things. The correct question is how much leading should government do? What is an appropriate balance of governmental interference with freedom?
  10. Most iPods do video nowadays - which requires lots more space than what 10,000 songs needs. Also, I don't think Apple can just say "lets price it at $.10", due to agreements with the labels. Its priced at .99 because Apple only takes a portion, and the record labels take the rest. In addition, the artists make almost nothing from people buying the songs through iTunes.
  11. "Let me be clear: There is no military solution in Iraq. There never was," he said. "'The best way to protect our security and to pressure Iraq's leaders to resolve their civil war is to immediately begin to remove our combat troops. Not in six months or one year -- now." I'm not sure there really is any significant difference. Seems to me, the country needs to have successfully transferred security to the Iraqis to be able to pull the troops out, at which point both candidates would agree that the troops would need to be gone. Sure, Obama may pull some small number of troops before McCain would, but meh.
  12. Vince Young, lolz. In reality: whoever knocks Colt McCoy out of the game.
  13. Yeah, but the National Enquierer makes it a bit obvious.
  14. yep - "thank God for that ass"
  15. How do you turn a phrase?
  16. How do you half expect something?
  17. No, simply saying that I use Sirius for all my music needs
  18. I am confused. Why are you referring to yourself in the 3rd person, and what does that have to do with the calendar?
  19. http://www.postgazette.com/pg/08204/898541-66.stm After 34 years, lol
  20. While I don't download music (who needs to download music with Sirius streaming in decent quality?), I have no sympathy for the artists who are continuing to be part of the problem (aka anyone who works with the RIAA).
  21. I don't disagree with that being the best long-term strategy, was looking at the short-term reelection for him (which would take a bigger priority than the long-term, I'd presume).
  22. Well, after all, he is the goddamn batman
