Opportunity: You hear about that new guy, Phoenix?
Spirit: Yeah, water ice...wonder what he'll find next.
Op: The dude's dead, yo!
Sp: What? He's only been here 5 months!
Op: I know. Lightweight. Gave some whiney excuse about 'only 3 months'.
Sp: What a wuss. I've been running on half power and 5 wheels most of this damn mission! I guess they don't make 'em like they used to.

Enforcement Policy

You must change your graffiti drawing every 7 days and ensure you do not use the same sequence of circles squiggles strokes or triangles.
Your graffiti sketch also must be greater than a house and a tree in complexity and has to include accurate birds and sunshine bars.

Strange slashdotter sustained without sunlight
by LiquidCoooled (634315)

What is this sunlight you speak of?

We manage to sustain ourselves using colonies of microorganisms utilising twinkie bars and coke (mostly near mom's fridge).
We rely on radiation from our CRT monitors and heat from mom's washing machine to act as a catalyst converting the food bars into into methane gas. Thus instead of having a nice basement, its a desolate wasteland where noone would dare to tread.

There is some speculation about how life evolved inside such places (or should that be devolved).

Staff at the school were happy with how the opening day went, the pupils were welcomed in by a Brian Eno classic on the tannoy system.
This informed them that the tannoy system was working and it was now safe to enter the building.

However, once the day got underway things quickly went downhill in the English letter writing class.

"Dear aunt, let's set so double the killer delete select all,"

Meanwhile the gymnasium had to be rebooted twice after some children overloaded the basketball hoops.
Several pupils were stuck in the changing rooms for a few hours until the scandisk procedure managed to locate all the fragments of the key to unlock the door.

Re:Could really use that right about now...

There is a great extension for firefox called Nuke Anything [mozilla.org] which allows you to remove sections from pages.
My missus had a great time deleting all the geeky stuff from slashdot.

You should have seen her face drop though when I told her she had actually removed it from the internet.
