Go to grad school for statistics because the job market from fall '08 to summer '09 was hilariously bad for entry level positions.

Although really right now I'm ignoring my classes big time and only focusing on the class I'm TAing for :|

[Restore][Restart][Quit]

With a stone pointer of some kind "clicking" the Quit button

If I happen to die in a ridiculous or stupid way I'd have to get someone to write some kind of awful Sierra adventure game pun about it too though.

I think it's hilarious that the right is only "fiscally conservative" when they aren't in power.

Vodka all the way. All those frat boys who drink Natty Light or whatever because "it's the cheapest way to get drunk bro" need to take a good hard look at bottom shelf vodka.

Not like I drink bottom shelf vodka, of course.

I laughed a lot at the inclusion of "Jenkem" in the poll as well as it being tied for the lead.

Having seen firsthand how insurance companies work (I worked for one) -- I think it is a lot more scary to have a group of people doing everything they can to make a profit making decisions about your health than the government.

As for the "we can't spend more money" argument, I forgot, I think there was some kind of conflict we initiated that cost trillions of dollars in deficit spending that happened not too long ago but my mind is fuzzy.

I have a winner, after researching the list I mentioned earlier... Pachi Com for the NES.

You hold a button and balls fall into a virtual Pachinko machine. THAT IS THE WHOLE GAME

2 on political spectrum

10/100 on the Yankees. I love watching that money pit fail massively throughout the season. Synergy >> throwing money at washed up talent.

Yea, because India's GDP is soooooooooo much lower than America's.

"it's something's being right that causes a majority of people to believe in it"

I put 6 KKK members and 4 black people in a room. The 6 KKK members decide to kill the 4 black people. This is acceptable and right in this room because a majority of people in the room believe in it.

Also if the church can use money to, I don't know, throw support for Prop 8 in California, they are a political organisation and must be taxed.

Also Prop 8 is a complete and utter disgrace to the number 8, which happens to be my favorite number.
