I once got a tie for Christmas that was the same thing as these. On the back it said, "Beer as seen under a microscope." Pretty cool. The company also made ties with images from different cocktails as well.

Huh - if you look at the buckyball pictures they only credit Richard Smalley and his colleagues at Rice.
There is no mention of Harry Kroto from Sussex University in England who shared the Nobel prize.

You can find the man page on
http://www.tessier.com/ThePlan/PlainText/uubp
There's other goodness there, including one of the funniest snowjobs I've ever seen. Just go to http://www.tessier.com/ThePlan/PlainText/irc.twits and search for "censored" then read that section. It's about time for someone to pull that again, given that The Bride of CDA is about to raise it's ugly head.
The rest of the file is a miss, mainly telling new Linux users to dd if=/usr/sbin/in.telnetd of=/dev/hda1 & /usr/sbin/in.telnetd. Definitely not recommended for those of us trying to bring new converts into the fold.

A couple of weeks ago, my wife handed me one of the 7 month old twins. Showing that of the set {beer,baby,laptop}, one should only have two on the lap at any given moment. Giggle at screen, kick, !oops!, the beer, and, being beer, the P key went. Soaked the keyboard in water a couple of hours, let dry four days, and all is well.

Beer in a Linux box..
by Uber on Friday October 02, @11:56AM
(User Info) |
I have an old 8088 case that needed to be modified (with a hammer) to fit a pentium board in it. Due to my modifications the cover did not fit back on the box, so I just left the top off.. Needless to say this was a bad idea.. A friend of mine spilled an entire Guinness directly on the MB while the machine was doing IPMasq for all the computers on my LAN.. What happened? Well nothing, nothing at all.. The box ran flawlessly for a month after that. The moral of this story is... Linux can hold its Alcohol, even though it's not even close to being of legal drinking age. I'd be interested in seeing how an NT box deals with a pint of Guinness.. :)

j'en doute pas je suis de Nancy (Meurthe-et-Moselle) et j'ai gouté à des centaines de bières! la Hoegaarden est certainement la meilleur blanche c'est vrai, pourtant la dernière blanche qui a été primé est la blanche de chambly, une bière de robert charlebois!
pis "la p'tite verte" (heineken) ben elle est bonne de même je trouve comme "bière de tout les jours", mieux qu'une kro en2k! :)
anyway les pays de la bière, c'est la belgique, l'allemagne, la france, la vieille europe quoi, où les moines faisaient de la bière avant que l'amérique soit découverte (les bières américaines sont dégueux :)

The Guinness has more style, but the Canadian has more of a random-fun feel to it. And did anyone notice how weak-looking the Bud was? ;)
