Are you kidding? This is a great idea. Imagine how pissed those spiders will be when they don't have gravity to form their webs. I wonder if they will be able to use their thread as a form of propulsion. Ryan Johnston

17 and he hasn't started yet? What a shame. Ryan Johnston

I am currently taking a software engineering class where I am being forced to use VB, so I am just angry at the world right now. Ryan Johnston

I'm tired of this. Since when did some one who spews VB become a programmer? Looking at VB "code" is like seeing someone throw up all over my screen. Ryan Johnston

David Stone wrote: Where were you for the eight years he was president? Did you miss the countless amount of scandals? Were you blind to all the lying that he did? The guy is purely unethical. I think "purely" unethical is a bit of an overstatement. He wasn't the most honest guy around, but he was a likable guy. Like I said, he makes a better talk show host than a president. David Stone wrote: but it certainly won't feed your mind. It wouldn't fit in the genre if it did (have you seen other tv talk shows?). Ryan Johnston

Shog9 wrote: Ok, seriously - why? How about for foreign relations? It helps to have an articulate president in that regard. Of course it also helps to have president that doesn't cheat on his wife (Bad Clinton! Bad Dog!). The president is in a very visible position. If he comes off as an idiot (even if he isn't), that reflects badly on the American people. Ryan Johnston

I can't wait to watch this show. I find anything trashy to be incredibly funny (like GWB being president!). I can't see how this could be anything but degrading, but I guess we will find out. In my oppinion Clinton was and is a great guy. At least he had charisma (just ask his interns :)), something GWB could really use. Maybe Clinton missed his calling when he became president, I think he always should have been a talk show host. Ryan Johnston

Yep, I agree completely. Ryan Johnston

:laugh::laugh::laugh: Ryan Johnston

Oh, I agree that they believed in them. But the difference, in my oppinion, is that they were the duped by propaganda, and charismatic leaders into what they believed, rather than being the leaders themselves (as the other people mentioned are). So in my view they were just slavish followers of someone else's ideas (though they should still be held accountable for their own actions, in the end we all have choices). Ryan Johnston

There is a difference between them. The people he mentioned were people who were risking themselves for their own ideas. The Nazi SS divisions were risking themselves for someone else's ideas. I personally don't have much respect for either group, but I recognize the distinction. Ryan Johnston

jamiehale wrote: marketing companies have to push harder to create in us artificial needs I really don't agree with this. I don't feel like I need modern products. I want them (which is a big difference). I haven't been brain washed. Most marketing is done by a bunch of retarded morons who couldn't get a real job (have you seen advertising?). Basicly I'm tired of hearing this line. Sure you are told that you need things. You are an individual. No one is in control of your decisions. No one is making you work those extra hours. We choose our pain. I will work harder if I think I can get more out of it. jamiehale wrote: It makes us not care about anything other than what directly affects our "way of life". I disagree again. Human nature keeps the majority of people focused on their "way of life". It isn't advertising. It is us. We, human beings, are the problem. Every one wants to blame someone else. As far as I can tell that is the root of most conflicts. I can't change human nature, so I can't change the world. The best I can do is try to lead a good life, and help others where I can. Ryan Johnston

So it is better to increase my stress level, and end up with the same result? There is absolutly nothing I can do that will change the mind of millions of other idiots. As for not giving a sh*t about the rest of the world: That is entirely untrue. I care a lot (and I try to keep fairly well informed), and when ever there is an opportunity to do something that will help others I will. Those opportunities are few and far between, so I don't sit around worrying about it. Ryan Johnston
