Microsoft does stand to gain much from the 787 billion porkulus package. They're going to take all of our medical records and send them to government computers. Then they're going to start telling doctors which treatments they may / may not proscribe.

Dino NEVER jokes..

unless he's joking..;-)

By the way good one Dino, and I am already surprised that Roy's take has not surfaced. But since I told him I could not post his articles without proper reference material he has been very very quiet.

Not having standards makes everything harder also.

Don't PANIK, lower your aspirations.

Sky-diving may be safe compared to medical care with Microsoft calling the shots.

And it hasn't been because he's properly referencing his work either.

Sounds like a good intro to a zombie movie. After all, that's what a significant percentage of Windows PC's are.

Scott -

Pot and Kettle, man.

Sure, Carla let loose with a big one, but your Freudian slips are nearly as bad.

How long will it take an asstute reader to figure out that we've nearly perfected the Buttox treatment to let people wear tight jeans again?

And surely somebody will catch on to our ongoing efforts to turn the Milky Way into a gated community, keeping out universal riffraff.

All thanks to you, pal. All thanks to you.
