Broke and programming everyday on a project I'm working on. And with no income for quite some time. I'm down to two sets of pants and some of my clothes have holes. My sneakers certainly have plenty of holes. My office is the local library.

Is the same thing as people trying to buy a Ferrari. Demand vastly exceeds supply so they will have no problem finding people that will think nothing of spending that amount of money. And frankly speaking $1,500 is not a lot of money. If yo

Since we are making anecdotal observations I'll posit that you could significantly increase your IQ if you focused on it. Just like if you wanted to play an instrument. You can increase your playing ability by focusing on it, or more specif

Maybe. I've been using a Tom-Tom lately and what I've notice is that it sort of turns you into a mindless drone. At least that is how I felt. I can certainly see a thing like Google Glass adversely affecting people by making them too depend

Without more details the whole story sounds iffy. Since he did not give us more details but still shared his story I will speculate that he took advantage of what he thought were some clever tax loopholes in MA. Remember that hid did state

It is the RIAA that is wasting our time and money by pursuing these type of cases in the first place. You do know that they could just drop the case. She is doing us a favor by not letting herself be bullied.

Sounds great to me. She is basically making them waste a lot of time and money. At this point 200K could as well be a 100 billion. She will never pay. I know it, she knows it, the RIAA know it. Is not like they can throw her in jail for not

You must also think that it is unfair that people win hundreds of millions of dollars by playing the lotto when all they did was invest one or two dollars.

Not to sound rude but what are you talking about? Why are you even apologizing?

Of course it happens. The same way that people get hit by lighting everyday, or that someone wins the lottery every day. But to pretend that in soccer you can get the same kind of dangerous injuries as in American Football is disingenuous.

Europe is a bunch of countries. I'm sure we can arbitrarily choose any other group of countries that will make it a bigger economy than Europe. So saying that Europe is the largest economy in the world is kind of silly. Largest to what? To
