2. Down in Florida...
we're seriously fighting that thing. There's no paper trail and it's scary guys. We won't let them get away with this.

Unfortunately, it doesn't look like anything will get done in time for the 2004 election but expect the voting machine software to be gone by next year.

11. Or change the logo just enough so it doesn't copy MS's logo
Even though that particular logo is old...

4 rounded squares, of red, green, yellow, and blue, with a black border would be sufficiently different...

10. Jaws didn't phase me
Edited on Sat Mar-20-04 03:09 AM by SoCalDem
The shark I met upclose and personal when I was a kid scared me enough to last a lifetime.. Even though everyone said it was not the kind that eats people,it scared the hell out of me.. I was 12 and it was the size of a pontiac.. (it LOOKED that big) :)We were scuba diving, and my friend pointed, I turned around and Woop..there he was.. about 3 feet away..:scared: Tiger shark , I was told ..

Needless to say, he did not bite me..but that was the last time I ever dove :)



edit.. they lied to me.. I just looked up tiger shark,,

eek..

The curious eating habits of tiger sharks
The tiger shark is one of three species most frequently named as being responsible for attacks on humans (the others are the great white shark and bull shark). Voracious eaters, they will swallow almost anything they encounter in the sea. At various times the stomachs of captured specimens have been found to contain an astonishing variety of objects including: a coil of copper wire, nuts, bolts, lumps of coal, boat cushions, clothing, a tom-tom, an unopened can of salmon, driftwood, birds, other sharks, seals and the head of a crocodile.

Sharks can regurgitate athe contents of their stomachs at will, and some can apparently store food undigested.. Sir Edward Halstom, honorary director of Sydney's Taronga Park Zoo, once obserbed this phenomenon in a tiger shark that lived for a month at the zoo in 1950. On two occasions during its captivity the shark was fed on horse meat which it regurgitated. After it died the sharks stomach was cut open and found to contains two undigested dolphins, eaten before its capture.
This exerpt is from Sharks: Silent Hunters from the Deep by Reader's Digest, page 117
