Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

It looks like they're going for a non-threatening kind of "generic bikini fantasy chicks use computers too!" vibe rather than facing the idea that someone might find geekiness sexy.

Yeah, show a chick with a big LCD screen running Linux, with about five terminal windows open....

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Was 10.0 a huge hit when it aired? Cause there's gonna be a sequel. 10.5: Apocalypse

Why is this now an accepted method of generating plots for TV movies? Like the "Category 7!!!" one they've been advertising on CBS. That's NOT HOW these scales work! They are not based on Spinal Tap logic!

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

They are not based on Spinal Tap logic!

Yeah, but they're appealing to a Spinal Tap Logic audience.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Poor shrift. This was wedding weekend, right? How was it?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Yeah, show a chick with a big LCD screen running Linux, with about five terminal windows open....

I just got an alert from Yahoo that Bush is going to announce his replacement for Alan Greenspan at 1 pm Eastern.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Bush is going to announce his replacement for Alan Greenspan

It'll probably be his personal accountant.

It'll probably be his personal accountant.

Or Brownie. I hear he does a heck of a job.

It'll probably be his personal accountant.

I don't think we can assume it will be someone with any financial experience. All I think we can know is that Bush will have known them for over a decade.
