“If you Google it, you'll find a harrowing number of cases of people actually being shot by dogs, which is amazing because a dog can't even get a license to own a firearm and it stands in direct defiance of the standard code of operation for a firearm, which is that guns don't kill people, people kill people. A dog with a gun should, at best, do nothing, or look adorable. Still, lots of people get shot by dogs, including one fellow in New Zealand who was not just shot by his dog, but shot in the ass. The ass! No place on the human body is more hilarious to get shot in, understanding that a shot in the testicles, a zone normally reserved for hilarity, would in this case be terrible and cringe-worthy. Never put a bullet at high velocity into your balls. For you ladies, I recommend you never put a bullet in your lady blossom. You know what I mean.”
“darr247 on January 30th, 2011 I haven’t received an answer… Why would we need to change our passwords unless they were stored in the clear? All you (SF) should be storing are the hashes (of the passwords, and comparing the hash of the entered password to the stored hash). sevendd on January 30th, 2011 @darr247, from the SF email you probably received as well by now: “Our investigation uncovered evidence of password sniffing attempts. We have no evidence to suggest that your password has been compromised.” If your password has been sniffed it would not matter if it was stored in their database only as a hash - your password would have been available in the clear at this moment. Additionally, often (salted) hash tables are being cracked (brute force) - some people do spend those CPU hours. As you probably use a different random/secure password for every site you register on, you should be safe and just need to reset your SF password.”
“alphacentauri4 on January 29th, 2011 In case anyone didn’t grasp the implications of finni’s post above: You need to change your password at SourceForge, and you also need to change your password on *every other site* where you used the same password.”
“halilozgur on January 29th, 2011 You may not like a church or a mosque, but you can’t set fire to them. Anyway as noted, major points are: - How many people are using the same credentials for different sites/services? - Is something injected into the downloadables ? - Are there any back-doors in place that would allow these and more in the future?”
“All orange cats are male No, it is possible to have an orange female. Unlike the orange male, who only needs one copy of the O gene to produce an orange coat, the female requires the O to be on both chromosomes. If she has only one O, the resulting coat colour will be calico.”

“I brake for Pepsi I dig Pepsi so much that I continually consume large quantities despite doctor recommendations to reduce all caffeine intake. Sure, there are other Pepsi choices for me, but I just can't live without good ol' regular Pepsi Cola. Looking through photos taken throughout the years, there always seems to be a can or bottle of Pepsi lurking somewhere in the picture. One time I was driving with a friend just over the Canadian border. Not feeling well and being very much in need of an energy boost was wreaking havoc on my ability to think clearly. Suddenly I saw a soda machine on the sidewalk. My reaction? I slammed on the brakes and yelled out in a very spirited manner "AN OLD PEPSI SIGN!!" I brake for (sometimes old) Pepsi (signs)! echo, United States - 24 September 2004”
“ShamWow and My Best Friend 10/12/2008 - jolie of florida, usa writes: I was working around the pool area yesterday and my little 15 lb cockapoo fell in the pool. Since it has no stairs, I dashed for the ShamWow and quickly sopped up all the water in the pool so my dog could get out. Thanks ShamWow for saving my best friend. ”
