LOL, I've been doing it since before they sold parts on the internet. That's one reason why I (unlike alot of you probably) really like the little mom-and-pop type computer shops. Most of you guys are from the internet age, and have probably never gone into a computer shop more than a time or two, if ever.

Yea, I was mostly just contrasting it to folks who just buy more expensive name brand pre-built PCs (Dell, Gateway, Compaq, etc).

Generic all the way!

I'm surprised you all actually believe everything the media tells you.

Pretty simple, actually:

Increased Co2 levels means explosive plant growth, more food for everyone, less natural disasters, etc.

Well said

Matt, you buy computers the way I do...in parts from TigerDirect.  I've been doing that for years.  If it's on sale, it matches

Well, an hour earlier would be dandy.  Not sure how much of an intrusion that would be to anyone else here.

Eh, it's probably not worth beating your head over it.  I have satellite.

According to the New York Times, Congress has just passed an economic stimulus package to the tune of $168 billion. The terms of the package are:

-Rebates of $300-$1200 for taxpayers
-Payments of $300 to people who paid no taxes, but earned from Social Security or veterans benefits

1)  They should never have taxed us that amount in the first place
2)  It's not a stimulus.  It's like jamming a piece into a puzzle that doesn't fit.

That's Dan's opinion of the day

All I have is a clip of Carl Parker the day afterward when the problems weren't quite "fixed" on Youtube.  Want it?
