  • 21st Century Update: Historians...

    ...will teach the generations to come that World War III was nearly started in 1999 when renegade Chinese gamers attacked a benevolent discussion forum based in North America after a manufacturer of computer videocards (Matrox) was instructed by the CIA (America) to withhold the cards (predecessors to the G1000) from these questionable types as to prevent advanced technology from falling into the hands of some mentally deficient psychotic adolescent crackpots. A later attempt at nuclear attack failed when a supposedly advanced missile armed with a nuclear warhead exploded on the launchpad killing thousands of onlookers, supposedly also incensed at having not received their videocards. Ironically, the cause of the accident was determined to be due to the beta state of the drivers which controlled the missile. May the world learn from such a horrible, horrible lesson...

      actually the true cause of the explosion is still undetermined but rumors of a new defense system created by a secret U.S. Government department known only as "Project Wavestar" which started initial development in 1977 using the power of electro magnetic pulse caused by the splitting of a nucleus in a point-to-point transmission from a spiderweb of satelites that were deployed between the years of 1996 and 1999 to cover many concerns of the "Millenium bug" being the perfect time for a surprize strike

                  I'll be Fat Bastard, of course, because I'm Dead Sexy.
                  Lady, people aren't chocolates. Do you know what they are mostly? Bastards. Bastard coated bastards with bastard filling. But I don't find them half as annoying as I find naive, bubble-headed optimists who walk around vomiting sunshine. -- Dr. Perry Cox

                              Hmmmmmmm....an interesting ethical dilemma....

                              What does Ant's personal protector do when Ant is threatened with attack from her own fiance....?

                              I say she yells, "Hey, Kraigman! Save me a seat!" Ethics, schmethics...!
