I'm sure everyone here understands that time is a valuable commodity. How do you handle exit checks at stores? Do you just walk by security and tell them kindly, "Nope, sorry!" or do you allow store security to check your bag and receipt -- even when you have just purchased the items about 10...

I've smoked occasionally on and off, but I never really did "enjoy" it. I was more of a social smoker -- lighting up in bars and clubs. At my worst, I imagine I went through a half a pack a week. However, I do occasionally smoke now, but down to a couple of cigerettes a week at most. To...

Why do discussions of UFO's always get lumped with JFK assassination conspiracies -- among other things?

I'd have to say that the exit wound looks like it is in the front, since bullets usually go in clean and do their explosive damage upon exit. He was shot from behind by Lee Harvey Oswald. Jack Ruby shot Lee because .... ? Jack Ruby knew what .... ...

Max401 just offered advice to Error? Why am I starting to get the inclination that Max401 and Error are the same person suffering from a split personality disorder? Quick question to both of you. Do you ever wake up in strange places with no idea how you got there? Error, did your wife...

Do you think that the computer would have played better if it were able to have searched 25-30 ply or do you think the problem would have still existed because of the way the computer was programmed to search for moves? In other words, would thinking "deeper and further" ahead have made a...

If my nose was falling off, I'd be depressed, too!

Let's not accuse an INNOCENT man before all the facts are presented at trial and judged by a jury of his peers. Check this little bit out. It appears that the boy's father abused him, too. http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/mjaccuser1.html NOVEMBER 21--The uproar surrounding the...

Perhaps Chong couldn't afford the legal counsel that Rush can. The same reasoning can be applied to many of the former executives at Enron and Worldcom. Why isn't Ebbers in jail? Unfortunately, justice isn't always consistent. We live in an imperfect world. In such a world, one man who...

Jack's about to bust the guy out of jail -- what a way to end it. The worst part about watching 24 is getting near the end of the episode and realizing you have to wait an entire week to see the next part! I bet that annoying woman in CTU finally nails the informant working within CTU...

That's a great post, Nitro. Thanks. I've heard that number before (10^120). What is interesting is that there is a very refined and large opening book, and another very large endgame database that has the permutations for any 7 pieces anywhere on the board -- but everything in between is...

I predict neither because the match was only 4 games. The entire match now stands at a draw but apparently there will be a rematch. Fritz ran on a quad Xeon 2.8ghz with 4 gigs of ram.

Anyone watch this match on ESPN? I saw it via the webcast and it was pretty exciting (if you call waiting 3 minutes for each move to be exciting -- but still more fast paced than baseball). What I don't understand is how the two players were compared. A lot of comparisons stated that Fritz...

I'll take "colors that end in urple" for $400 please.

Does anyone have $150,000 I can borrow? Ps: If I run with his joke and bid, is it legally binding?

Gordon, I see that you've saved up enough money to get a new keyboard to replace the old one with the broken shift key. Congrats!

I heard that this album made the top 50 from Rolling Stones upcoming "Top 500 albums of all time" (due to be out in a week or so).

LOL!!! GREAT DOUBLE MEANING THERE! That was awesome!

Why?

I'm not sure of the history of Michael Jackson's younger years, but I do believe he came from a very strict household. I believe his father was extremely strict. After observing Michael Jackson throughout the years, I've come up with two conclusions. He is VERY talented and also extremely...
