"Higgs Boson Hiding Place Narrows"

They said the same thing about D.B. Cooper at one time.

The patients ...

... have gotten the keys to the insane asylum.

Marginally educated ...

... basement dwelling pseudo journalist opinion pushing bloggers.

Simple

If you don't like the way corporations work; don't work for a corporation. But if you do, be sure and complain every payday.

Pure and Simple

The latest Darwin award recipient. He's the type to slam on the brakes of his automobile to keep from hitting a bunny and endangering his entire family in the process. Stupid is stupid regardless of its gentlemanly connection.

Fuzzy Wuzzy ...

... wuz a bear. Fuzzy Wuzzy had no hair. Fuzzy Wuzzy wuzzan't fuzzy wuzz he?

So? What's your point?

Create an online persona...maybe more than one Sure you have to invest a little time and effort, very little, but just do it if you're concerned about privacy. Or for that matter want to keep your 3rd grade English teacher from grading your comments.

For instance Holden McGroin. But that one is already taken. Maybe Mickleson C. Mouse. Grabbin Mahare. Easy as pie. Oh sorry Ephrem Zachary Aspie has been taken too.

Next thing you know ...

... they'll be blowing across the mouth of wine bottles, stamping their feet and acting out the love scene from "Deliverance".

Like Pouring Beer?

I'd have though since the subject mentioned is beer, the data transfer would be more closely related to a biological "drain down". But then I guess not everybody considers The Sacred J a prick.

Damn, I'm just glad ...

... I waited on the iPhone 27.

Yes, but ...

... all the "profit margin" arguments assume a capitalistic approach. In a Utopian socialist society/world the concept of profit has no meaning. Therefore, once the whole world is socialist we'll have no reason not to extract the needed elements. Hip, Hip Hurray for socialism.

"Early Adopter = ...

... reverse paid Beta tester."

Nothing Like Vocal Woman

What's the big deal? I love hearing a hot woman grunt and squeal. Aren't most of the objections coming from women? Figures.

I also have more important things to be concerned about than the vocalizations of a bunch of tennis snob cuties in a short skirts squealing as they lift a leg and work that arm. But hey, it could be worse. It could be NASCAR and 300-600 miles of screaming left turns.

Oh Silly Me

I thought big screens were passe' and everybody who was anybody reveled in the "squint-to-see-or-put-on-your-reading-glasses" smart phone screens. And, of course, the pad things which are also small compared to this behemoth. Think as a definite throwback I'll just stick with my 22in models.

So Archaic

I've never had a paperback or hardcover book either hacked or spammed. Damn, I'm just so behind the times and so anachronistic.

Psychologist?

Just get a dog and talk to him (or her). They listen intently, never condemn you and no matter how despicable you are they will love and support you. And they do it for dog food and belly rubs. Try and get your local psychologist to do all that for Alpo and petting.

Four wheeled ...

... coffin, or sardine car. Take your pick.

"community enthusiasm for Ubuntu"

All 17 of them?

The New Gestapo

Western school officials: "outside the government; beyond the police".

Maybe ...

...we all need to be anonymous in one fashion or another. Right Anonymous?

Boy am I glad ...

...I'm somebody else.

provokes religious euphoria

Recent research shows the same effect when men stare at breasts. Conclusion: Jobs is a real boob.

Sounds Like Microsoft

"We need a plan to obsolete [sic] Firefox 3.5 as we can't support it into perpetuity," said Mozilla.

Kill switch? Forced upgrade against someone's will? Cease support? Yeah, threats always work against [inherently] rebellious computer users who shunned IE and stepped off the well worn sheep's path to common computer usage.

FF4 is OK but nothing to cheer about. Some things I like, some things I dislike and methinks I'll keep 3.6.## until they tell me it has to go too. Then keep it a bit longer. May machine and all that. Frakk

em!

It's a good thing ....

... Apple doesn't make condoms. Or do they?
