That, right there, is yet one more reason to have access to Tip.It's Mobile Version on desktop systems. Older systems won't be stressed out by the Mobile version, where they would be stressed out by the desktop version. Thanks for making a note of that. :D FWIW, many reputable commercial companies let their mobile sites load on desktop browsers. They are the sorts of firms who understand concepts like customer retention and user-friendliness. Examples: Taco Bell: http://m.tacobell.com/ Wendys: http://m.wendys.com/ TGI Fridays: http://m.tgifridays.com/ Steak n Shake: http://www.steaknshake.com/mobile/ SONIC: http://www.sonicdrivein.mobi/ Red Lobster: http://m.redlobster.com/ Pizza Hut: https://quikorder.pizzahut.com/phorders2/mobilelogin.php McDonalds: http://mobile.mcstate.com/ Office Depot: http://m.officedepot.com/m/www.officedepot.com/ Best Buy: http://m.bestbuy.com/m/b/ Staples: http://m.staples.com/mt/www.staples.com CVS Pharmacy: http://m.cvs.com/mt/www.cvs.com/CVSApp/user/home/home.jsp?un_jtt_redirect The GAP: http://m.gap.com/ WalMart: http://mobile.walmart.com/ Target: http://sites.target.com/site/en/spot/mobile.jsp which makes Tip.Its stand seem so very, very odd. I don't think anyone has stated that we're not going to be doing this....we're merely mentioning to him that there's a much more simple solution.

Hopping on the bandwagon, I get compliments on my hair all the time. My family gives me shit about it but other that that I've found that most people actually think my hair looks good. Or they lie to me about it. That's just as likely now that I think of it. Granted, I did get a haircut today :lol: Yeah your hair looks pretty good as far as long hair on guys goes (no homo). But you're definitely in the minority.

How do you work that out? $50 an hour is rediculously low for a prostitute, yet $50/hour wage is enviable. Even after preparation/cleanup time and tax. And how many functional members of society would be a prostitute for $50 an hour if they didn't need the money for drugs? Probably not too many. And yes, add in licensing fees, cleanup, tax, etc...and legal prostitution becomes much more expensive than illegal prostitution ever was.

In order to make prostitution a profitable business without the drug dependency and sexual slavery that plagues illegal prostitution, it would have to be so expensive that illegal prostitution would still be in huge demand.

You can also try kneeling down on your left knee with your right knee pressed as tightly against your chest as possible for a few seconds.

I agree with the fact that it should be controlled heavily if legalized and that Society is essentially not going to change into that direction for a LONG while, which is why I am not a fan of traditional thinking to begin with. As for my viewpoint of the profession itself, I am neutral on it because it's their bodies and they can use it how they like as long as they don't harm others. "Many, many years" doesn't even describe how long prostitution has been around since it's know it was used for religious and spiritual purposes back in the ancient world. I'm sure prostitution began to exist as soon as the concept of payment for services was invented.

But it's at it's best when it's freezing! Very curious to see how it feels when it's -20 outside.

I think it's unfortunate, pathetic and immoral, but I don't think it should be illegal.

Oh, so widespread famines and an awful economy don't make for a delicate domestic situation? Though the economy is indeed in a dire state, the famine ended in 1998 and the economy has been improving for years; when it was at its worst in the 1990s, there were no signs of unrest at all. Why should there be in better times. Meanwhile, the regime has continued the most thorough indoctrination of a nation and has some 9 million troops at its disposal - as much as we may wish it, we cannot lie to ourselves that the regime is anything other than strong when compared to Gaddafi, Mubarak, Ben Ali, or any other of this year's fallen dictators. You were right in saying that the fall of the North Korean regime is an eventuality as per the USSR, but in terms of that analogy, then Kim Jong-il's death is comparable to Stalin's, or perhaps Brezhnev's at best - there is still a long way to go. 9 million? Try 1.2 million. source I agree that it's stronger than the arab dictatorships, I just don't see it as an impossibility that it could fail. But time will tell.

As you've already achieved the admirable feat of running 16 extensions while keeping your browser "stable"; I have great confidence in your ability to continue to do so with the user agent switcher extension installed. So you could do that, and have your results in two minutes...or you could wait for us to (possibly) make this change, and have it done in a few weeks once other things that are actually important are taken care of.

Yet another game blown due to the PK. Thought this was relevant (in response to the post about the marlies' PK system):

It could also lead to a full-scale revolution in NK resulting in democratic rule (although I admit this is unlikely). I think that we can pretty much rule out something along those lines happening - NK makes Gaddafi's Libya look like a beacon of liberalism, while its propaganda is far, far more effective than any Arab spring country. Even communist Russia converted to "democracy" eventually; you certainly can't rule out NK. The situation isn't great there, it's entirely possible that public opinion could boil over if KJU comes across as weak or otherwise fails to live up to his father and grandfather's reputations. Of course the Kim family dynasty will come to an end eventually, but the idea that it's going to unravel quickly as a result of Kim Jong-il's death is the sort of nonsense that our Foreign Ministers tell us. Perhaps in ten years time after a bitter and factional power struggle in the party, but there's no way that a carefully created propaganda infrastructure is going to collapse in an Arab Spring type way just because of this one man's death. And I disagree. History is full of examples of weak heirs to the throne (KJI was a monarch, if not by title) failing to hold together a country that their father did. The situation in NK is already fairly delicate; I don't think it will take much to push the population over the edge.

I kind of agree with the Skyrim thing. It was epic for the first 75 hours, after that it felt like I ran out of stuff to do short of repetitive meaningless tasks. It's still totally worth it for the first 75-100 hours though.

Vikings aren't doing any better. Ponder looks scared to throw now after being sacked so much and throwing so many interceptions the past few games. Needless to say, didn't help that we played NO. Oh well, we're right on pace for second or third overall pick in the draft.
