I want my car to sound like a Stage Coach with two horses.
Actually I want to be able to change the sound on a whim. Enterprise whooshes one day, wild horses the next, a bike with baseball cards in the spokes the next....
Well we have to figure someone will be annoyed enough to sue Amazon over the disappearing Orwell. Given that perhaps Amazon wants a court telling them they can't do that anymore giving them the right to tell any publisher who wants to shove off.
I still am waiting for a blind organization to sue over the disabled text to speech feature.
My daughter watches iCarly on nick and they feature computers and phones with a big pear on the back of the phone and computer.
Homer Simpson drinks Duff bear which I have never found on a shelf. I wonder if people have tried to buy the rights to that faux brand. I don think a few faux brands have made the jump to the store shelves.
About the only reason to run Palin in 2012 is that the republicans don't want to waste a more viable candidate against Obama.
I think she is a looney and too thin skinned to survive long in a high visibility position. That said I'd put a couple of quatloos on her getting a show on FOX News by the end of the decade. But I wouldn't be shocked if she joined Barnum and Bailey as a clown either.
Madoff only got five years to protect him from his clients.
This needs to go to the Supremes if only to see if RIAA folds again. Prediction is that they will lose badly and fold somewhere on the appellate ladder.
Those are MHz channels on 35 if you are in the DC market.
7 & 9 thought staying on VHF would be a better deal for them but the don't have the signal strength to reach outside the beltway to Fairfax. 5 and 20 turned up today when I switched antennas.
I have a digital tuner box and was doing pretty well with it a few months ago when I first tested it. I settled on a little simple bowtie antenna I had in the junk box.
I rescanned Saturday and lost 5-FOX, 7-ABC, 9-CBS and 20-MYTV. 20 always was iffy. The other three had been solid. 7 and 9 switched their digital signal to their old VHF frequencies and out of the range of my antenna. I have no idea what happened to 5.
I have 14 assorted channels left with 3 on the NBC affiliate and 4 on the ION affiliate.

Well it is like not being willing to meet WalMart's requirements in a town where there is only WalMart. If you want to be in the market you need to dance with the devil.
People hearing new music is the life's blood of getting any chance for people to buy new music. Screwing all your sampling venues will destroy your market.

Don't any of you have a back seat? The braille is for a backseat passenger to be driven to the cash machine.
