  Teacher: Open the book to page 192, and read the description for _________'s piece of art named _________.
  Student: Hey I paid 180 for this book and it doesn't show the painting?
  Teacher: Don't worry about it. We can use the power of I M A G I N A T I O N, to get us the rest of the way. I have seen it myself in our old text book, and I will try and describe the brushstrokes significance. I also have this wonderful color wheel which I will use to try and show you how the artisit combined different shades to create a wonderful effect.
  Student: Fuck that! I'll just google it.

  Lets get the rumors started early

  iOS 7.0 obviously will have an added grocery store among its music and movie selections. Soon from your iPhone you will be able to select and purchase a wide variety of common household items and produce directly from your phone. A new service called the iherb (rumored 9.99/month) will even allow you to smell how fresh the basil is.

  I worked in a few restaurants prior to the job I have now. Without knowing it I was in violation of this patent. At the last restaurant I worked at we had an employee meal prior to the shift beginning. The other line cooks and myself would quickly do EXACTLY THIS a couple of times a week. We would alternate seasoning and sauce to keep it a little different.

  Re:

  Just because her car is actually owned by EMI, and her home is listed as being property of Sony BMG proves nothing. Take your conspiracy theories elsewhere.

  Re: Re: Re:

  You are comparing two complex and different things and simplify it to a single point. The issue is far too complex for such an analysis.

  Re:

  "If the music industry cannot stop infringement without outside help, they should not be in business."
  
  We need to call them the gate keeper industry. The music business is fine and doing very very well right now. The gate keeper industries that are trying so hard to keep their income that they are willing to sue, humiliate, and bankrupt their customers to keep control of what they have.
  
  The harder they fight the farther they'll fall.

  I am just waiting for the Born Music Tax.
  
  Its a new tax on all newborn children. Said child may here some music at some point and they did not pay for that music. This tax is levied against the parents and should be equal to no less than 10% of the fee paid for said birth.

  Re: Re:

  The fact that someone made that distinction is the problem. How is this any different than when used to record a TV show using my VCR prior to the TiVO and DVR services. When I watched those shows I skipped the commercials too. What dish did was automate the process for the end user so they didn't need to keep the remote at the ready.

  It should be obvious that the censor is simply of higher moral character than the rest of the general public. Has anyone ever seen the movie Soldier? It is like that only with out the hand to hand combat training. The raise children to be immune to the filth and at the same time completely loyal to the state.
