hahaha ... who pays for burgers with a charge card?

I miss Nairi

I had no idea there was such a person at Apple. Of course he must be responsible for all of that company's recent sucesses

On a completely unrelated topic, my office mate and I back at UCLA one day spent several hours trying to come up with the worst possible crime we could think of ... ... our final consensus: necropedophilia. He suggested it first but as soon as the words came out, we both knew the discussion had come to an end.

By the way, anyone remember this scene? http://www.intriguing.com/mp/_pictures/grail/small/HolyGrail022.jpg

Anahit, that was excellent! Don't let anyone tell you you don't have ANY good posts on this forum because you have at least one Yervant, nice try but you still can't make any such claims j/k j/k

Who's the lightbulb and who's the sock?

PM sent.

Yah stick around, you might learn some new things

I'm just thinking if I something precious was found in Turkey or Afghanistan for example, where would I rather see it end up ... The british museum (or Lourvre for that matter) don't seem like such a bad deal! I wish the british museum would have (could have) stolen those awesome huge statues in Afghanistan that the Taliban totally destroyed a while back for example.

Sure thing. It's filed in my really really important pile of to-do's.

By the way, best way for that is probably to use the "report post" feature.

Feel free to let one of the mods know. We can still edit stuff. There are more to prevent cases where people start fights and then go back and remove all the offending posts and the people left over fuming look like jack asses

I think there is some time after which you can't edit. We had several cases of people going back and editing their posts in a thread, making it completely unreadable ... that's why that came to be. But it shouldn't be immediate ... it should kick in after a few minutes.

Autoruns Shows you everything that can start anywhere in windows. Just took me 2 hours to find a freaking spyware on a friend's laptop. It had registerd itself as both internet explorer and windows explorer shell extensions ... I would fix IE, reboot, and it would be back! Without this, I wouldn't have found the problem.

Is that a bad thing with the British museum?

Ha haaaa ... yah like I need more reasons to spend time online

I don't think rejection of religion automatically implies "reason" or "materialism". It may, but not necessarily. One could be quite spiritual (and unreasonable for that matter!) and not be at all religious. As an example, of course the extreme also holds where one rejects all science, reason, logic, religion, and spirituality among other things. What is then left is basically an animal who may choose purely to pursue his sensuality and immediate happiness (greed). I think we've all seen people like this too in our lives in different shapes and forms.

Don't worry sSebB. God will take care of them in due time.

Yah but for some strange reason, I am defending religion now

Voghormats, even though I would be the last person to defend religon in general, there do exist peaceful religions. So I don't think it is fair to pick only violent manifestations of certain religions and use them to push a point against religion in general. Even though it is true that many killings and attrocities have taken place in the name of religion, one could also probably make a case that many more attrocities have been prevented in the name of religion too. Neither makes "religion" right, but I don't think either makes religion ok either.

Well, at least I will have a thread for reference, next time you tell me I am being unreasonable when I say someone is probably wrong in their beliefs. I just wanted to establish a history of agreement, that someone CAN be wrong in their beliefs and not everything is subject to "acceptance".

... and probably non of them were lazy

I take back anything bad I ever said about canada (not including what I said about Domino).
