  1. The Navy, at one time, had plans on naming a new escort ship SPAM, after all, it has been a mess hall staple for years. After consideration, the company that produces Spam declined the offer of putting it's food name on a naval vessel, citing that while the advertising would be unbeatable, if the ship ever sank, every newspaper in the world would announce "500 killed on Spam"

    True story? Hell if I know, been carrying that around for years.

  2. There are folks out there (a little like me) who will take the opposite position from you every time, especially if it's not thier idea. I'm for exploration and finding room for all the babies that are coming, cause another trait of people is uncontrolled breeding.

  3. All the options were meaningless to me. I probably owe more to the Romans or British, but I don't know that buffing up on history is on the schedule for tonight. Nope, it's not, see, it's sci-fi night. Maybe history is tomorrow.

  4. Back in the day I wanted a website for free searches for people and public information, like sex offenders that weren't well published. So what would be a good name and try to be cute?...I was bringing information straight to you, and on a license plate I could make it Str8 2 U...women don't get it at first, haven't figured out why either. Maybe I could get a government grant to study this.

  5. The point here isn't "What monkey would pay that for downloads?" but a few forms of gratification. Instand Delivery, it's a purchase (Do You Like Spending Money?), "I'm a part of technology", YAY!

    Hey, you know some of those monkeys are thinking the opposite, like they're getting over on the studios cause they got it cheaper...without the case, notes, shiny printed disks...yeah.
