17. Bush + Technology = Huh?

7. Jimmy Kimmel played it. He had a really good time with it
He's like "there's more than one? There must be some secret one we don't know about."

9. There actually is another Internet -- sort of
Edited on Sat Oct-09-04 12:08 AM by scottcsmith
The "other" Internet is based on IP ver. 6, something that's been in development for years.

I think it's safe to say W. knows nothing of this.

15. I like tech jokes. There is one I still remember about a simple
kid's swing on a tree. The question was how best to make one. The engineers did all these versions with six seats, ten ropes and all this crap and then a kid walks by , throws a rope up over a tree limb and ties it and starts swinging.
