- odd...
my dictionary automatically opens to the page with bourgeoisie on it
and..
the last entry in the W section is WYSIWYG as defined by my dictionary:
WYSIWYG (wiz'ee-wig')
adj.
Relating to or being a word-processing or desktop publishing system in which the screen displays text exactly as it will be printed.
nothing about "What You See Is What You Get"
meh, whatever, not my problem... but still odd that they don't describe the acronym

- ahem... "casual" not "causal" my apologies... two letters, easily mixed up.
Tay I'm assuming you're critiquing the apparent Mac computer in the poster?
I thought it was pretty funny.
it's a shame they're making the communist evil-appearing
but whatever, not my ad... sort-of like that pot movie... Reefer Madness...
too much negative connotation for something.
they make it seem like being a communist is evil hence the association with stealing mp3s...
and speaking of communism, why are the bourgeoisie the ones bolshies/commies go after?
Is the middle class really the cause of all the problems?
Why isn't it the upper class? the ones that create their wealth by creating poverty?
the ones that are squeezing the middle and lower classes...
just curious

- wow, fastest exam ever: 10:20 to about 5 minutes before now.
And there was some causal chatting going on too...
So perhaps oral exams aren't so bad after all.
I was recorded for probably 10 minutes, that's it. I'm impressed
I thought it would be a whole lot tougher than it actually was
woo hoo! three down, three to go.
and now I'm going to collapse on a couch and sleep,
to hell with studying for tomorrow.

Ünited Stätes Toughens Image With Umlauts
WASHINGTON, DC—In a move designed to make the United States seem more "bad-assed and scary in a quasi-heavy-metal manner," Congress passed a bill Monday changing the nation's name to the Ünited Stätes of Ämerica. "Much like Mötley Crüe and Motörhead, the Ünited Stätes is not to be messed with," said Sen. James Inhofe (R-OK). An upcoming redesign of the Ämerican flag will feature the new name in burnished silver wrought in a jagged, gothic font and bolted to a black background. A new national anthem is also in the works, to be written by composer Glenn Danzig and tentatively titled "Howl Of The She-Demon."

Bush Diagnosed With Attention-To-Deficit Disorder
WASHINGTON, DC—Pointing to massive war-time tax cuts, physicians from the Congressional Budget Office diagnosed President Bush with attention-to-deficit disorder Tuesday. "The president exhibits all the symptoms of ATDD: impulsiveness, restlessness, inability to focus on mounting U.S. debt likely to reach $400 billion by the year's end," Dr. Terrence Spellman said. "Failing to address his affliction could lead to serious long-term fiscal health problems for future generations of Americans." To treat the president's ATDD, Spellman prescribed Ritalin and an introductory course in high-school economics.
