    IT Crash

    thus we see the flaw of readily available tech training, and radio ads for it. Seems everyone jumped the bandwagon at once, nothe job market is flooded with people wanting to work in the IT feild. They got their learn on thinking they'd be assured a prosperous job, but theres alot of competion out there now, and the slightest market fluxuation results in alot of cutbacks. But honnestly, what job markets are doing good these days?
  2. lotta people used to get away with that, but the man put a stop to it.
  3. And you are sad. Point made, and proven time and time again. You're trying to sell pictures of your ex girlfreind, did it occur to you she may have a problem with this? Yes, it did occur to you, yet you do it anyways, many would consider that a bit childish, and most legal professionals would call it stupid. Best of luck, can I get her number from ya?

    woowoo

    what a goat fuck. I figured I'd just do a lap of the down town freeway circut, just cruising and looking for a few mins, cuz i can do 2 things at the same time. Well fuck that, I had to dodge assholes trying to parallel park in the god damn median. People were parked onthe shoulders, littel kids runing around 6 feet from the fucking freeway. And when it was over, it was like NASCAR fuckin pit lane, everyone rushed into their cars and jumped out ont he damn highway. Never in my life did I want an oozy so much.
  8. Damn, and I thought you were at Mid Ohio last weekend, too. All the cool promo cars come to road courses, folks. If you wanna see something weak like the new mustang, go to a drag strip. tongue.gif I thought hte GM trailer was a pretty swank deal, but they could have picked a better place t park it, you realy couldn't see much from the upper deck. Of course, we all know it was there to be seen, not to see from.
  9. finaly, a teacher-student sex scandal with an ATTRACTIVE teacher, my age too. [ 30. June 2004, 11:15 PM: Message edited by: Gurkha ]
  10. OMFGhi2U!!11!!eleven!!1!! Happy friggin birthday Ben!!
  11. Money + Test better equal more then bragging rights. I've been encouraged to join since my first IQ test, I'm just not motivated enough by the right to carry yet another peice of plastic in my wallet. Besides, I dont need it, my knowin's shines through, hense my current employment status. Now, the movie, I want to see it, who else is in? Mark, you going? Republicans: Dont like it? Fine, make a movie. Fact or not, the dubyuh conducted himself in a manner that his actions could be interpreted this way. I, too, await the counter documentary. It's bound to be lame.
  12. wasn't so much for you as it was for the reading public
  13. beacuse NASA has alot more shit to do. They are a govenment funded agency, which means they CAN NOT EVER LOOK BAD!! Why? Beacuse people are stupid. People see a failed mission and say "why are we letting them waste our taxes if they cant get shit right?", completely neglecting hte fact that the shoe string budget is spread so thin that they cant afford new shit. why? Beacuse NASA is super focused on quality, because failures are huge setbacks (i.e challenger, columbia). So, why does NASA cost so much? many reasons, the bigest ones being: 1-They incur the initial cost of reaserch and development. This is very expensive because it involves experimentation, trial and error, etc. This private flight would not have happened if it werent for the readily available data that NASA aquired and published over the years, expesively aquired data. 2- Redundant systems. They NEED thier shuttles to come back. There's 7 times as many people on the shuttle, they spend alot more time aloft, and they have backup after backup after backup. This private mission was so cheap for the simple fact that...well, it was so cheap. Compare it to the average NASA training craft and you'll find it sorely out classed in the tech department. They did alot with very little, perspectively. Were NASA to spend $20mill to barely touch the ede of space, people would bitch about it being a waste. They did a great thing, but lets compare apples to apples.
  14. Lifting bodies own j00, though that thing would qualify as a hybrid. To wint he X prize, they have a hundred some odd thousand feet left to go, and they not only have to do it twice, but within a given time as well, I think its a few days. At this point, the ten mill means jack, they rock, AND their company name is all over the news, cant beat that. supposedly some system failed on descent, and they went to the back up, any more detailed info on that?
  15. so, you were seated in H? It looked PACKED down there. We were in the 47 paddock box, down by the start/finish area. I dont have a digi cam, I have an old school 35mm, we'll see how mine turn out. I got a few from the cross walk on the back straight,t he canvas had some gaps
  16. I'm there, 'round 9:30, though. long day at work.
  17. I'll be there for qualifying saturday, damn shame I'll be missing the thursday walk about. oh, and BTW: Theres a huge BMW gathering tomarrow right here in columbus. It's at a place called "starbucks", they have it every day.

    job question

    Actualy, my warehouse is hiring, and I could get him a job for $10 an hour, with benifits, we NEED people, now....but I'm not going to. We have no problem with peircings or tattoos, hoblic even worked with us. But I'm not going to reffer a dude who defines himself through a peice of steel in his face. graemlins/jerkit.gif Peircing boy, consider this: You've put your time and effort into attaining two degrees, BOTH in feilds that are obviously going to have some kind of dress code, yet you refuse to compramise your childish body art. You "could" be a successfull accountant, you "could" be a pastor somewhere, or you "could" go on to teach either of those two some where. But no, you're hard core, you're a rebel, you're and individual....now give my my motherfucking fries, hell yeah I want'm biggie sized, son!
  19. I beleive that was marks point. Not that I've ever run, but I've heard of some one who's dont it a few times, and they said those fuggin cops dont give up at no 90mph.
  20. I dont wanna seem like I'm being course here jay, but how is driving 90 miles north out of my way "kinda" on the way? tongue.gif doesnt look like we'll be making it to qualifying. The Indy area hotels have gone OPEC on our asses and joined forces. No hotel within 30 miles will let rooms for less then 3 days.
  21. make road america near something tongue.gif something more feasable, and i think far more bad ass, would be a metropolitan street course some where. Long Beach comes to mind (and is actualy feasable), but some where amid sky scrapers would be quite bad ass. I say we destroy that sacraligeous mall and rebuild Riverside to its former glory...ney, better Incorrect. He can keep it within 99.9-100% of its capabilities at all times. I think god was AWOL this weekend, and when he came back, he saw the results and said "what the fuck was ralf doing on the pole AND the podium? Who the hell did I leave in charge when I was gone!?" next thing we know, Bing, the FIA smites them. tongue.gif
  22. lol, did I read that right? So DSMs are low quality cars because they only some times start small fires, but very rarely burn to the ground? The very fact that incendiary parts are even an issue throws up a big red "poor quality" flag. I've never heard of another car where an interior fire hazard was a consistent problem (that wasn't recalled). I've heard of cars that die in the rain, and cars that consistently blow fuses, but none with reoccuring problems of fire in the car. I wouldn't think this would come down to "opinion", but to humor you, lets state these "opinions". yours: "Just because a few cars catch fire every once in a while doesnt mean they are lacking in quality." Mine: "if there is a consistent problem of superheating wires and starting fires in a specific make and model, within a specific year range, said vehicle is of poor quality." I'm a QC inspector, I know how to rate this stuff. As for knocking ones vehicle choice, I didnt say "you're stupid for buying that POS car". I said "damn, that's one POS car, much like alot of other DSMs". I'm knocking the car, not the choice. Now, since everyone is thoroughly familiar with why the fire started, it should be fairly simple for ya to set things up so that it doesnt happen again. Best of luck on your project, Ben.
  23. well, now we know what it was we passed. I hate twits.
  24. something a bit more pertinent to mark: The Crimson Jihad. Where are they based? Good ol Egypt. the is NO way to keep terrorists out of the country, we're too big. I think thats about the stupidest way to go about it, you're adressing the symptonms and not the problem. And the method in which you adress the symptoms is further pissing off the problem. Our problem is foreign relations. If you want to stop fighting, stop pissing people off. "they hate freedom" Bull fucking shit, thats not why they hate Amercans. They hate our support of Isreal, and they hate our shameless capitalist natures. Whether or not their impressions of us are correct or not doesnt mean a god damn thing. Our foreign policy is what needs adressed. We're reaping the consequnces of our forefathers mistakes. All those statesmen that a responceble for the descisions that lead to the world seeing us in the way that they do are to blame. Thats something even a good ol towlhead like Mark can agree with. tongue.gif Suppose some one that you thought was lying an two faced barged into your shitty country, uprooted your despotic leader, and sent they're own contractors to come rebuild your country, to mine your oil, to manage your reasources. Are you going to trust them any more then before?
