A vast majority of the country wants our borders controlled.
Ain't happening.
A vast majority of the country wants no health care law.
It passed.
I could go on.
So we're left either believing that people don't know how to vote in a candidate that represents their views OR we can conclude that the pack of lying scumbags in the media/government/etc. refuse to show their true colors UNTIL they've attained power. The media (on both sides) are in on the scam because they've found it easy to make each other rich and powerful while raping everyone else.
In short, it is impossible to have real democracy with all the lies because the lies effectively cancel the vote. To make a choice you have to have a choice and it isn't offered at this point.
If you doubt that, try to get a candidate into office that will cut spending.
You can vote one in that says he'll cut spending but once in power he'll do the opposite.
If you try to recall him you'll be painted a nutter/racist/terrorist and get a tax audit shoved up your ass.

As far as I'm concerned, particularly at the State and Local Levels, we have the best government Money Can Buy.

I used to own an Olivetti Laptop. It was fantastically powerful (for it's time). Twin 3.5" floppy drives, CGA (green) screen, a whopping 512k of memory, DOS 5.0 and a great keyboard, no mouse, no track-pad, no network. I can't remember the model number but it used to run for nearly four hours on one battery charge and it used to take 3 1/2 hours to do a complete rebuild of a system I was working on. The compiler, linker and source code were on one floppy drive, the libraries, etc. on the other. I recently managed to actually get the old source code to compile on my current system (Win7, SSD, Quad-core beast) - it took 4 seconds!
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

Probably couldn't get anything larger than a phone up their 'jacksey' given that they've already stuffed their own heads up there.

Is there nothing that can’t be solved with the judicious application of bacon? Apparently not, as this year’s Ig Nobel Prize for Medicine winners can attest.
Once more, BACON wins! For those with no taste buds, t* doesn't even get into the frame.

Can bacon make me lose some weight?
Microsoft ... the only place where VARIANT_TRUE != true

Certainly can!*
* All foods** can help lose weight as long as you burn off the calories you consume, with BACON one slice is ~1 hour of Zumba.
**t* is especially suited as trying to consume it results in retching the entire contents of your stomach and not wanting to eat anything else for several days.

I prefer american equivalent, their scientists say that you need to watch TV for 10 hours to burn calories from Doughnut.
How many hours I need to watch TV to burn Bacon slice and large beer?

Don't burn the BACON, that way the pig would have died in vain.

actually, yes. maybe.
some people can lose a lot of weight by switching to a diet that's high in meat, fat and low-carb vegetables.

Turn you into a vegetarian?
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

You lot area sickly, deformed bunch battling constant pain so I am sure some good advice will be forthcoming.
I am having hip pain still since my car crash, despite steroid injections and a few months of physio. Things are improving, and some activities are no longer a problem at all.
I changed my car last week and the pain I used to get after driving has more or less gone, I no longer get much pain whilst walking anymore either.
However, after sitting in a normal office chair for even half an hour I get quite a lot of pain when I get up again. The longer I sit the greater the pain and the longer it lasts. The pain is not there whilst sitting, but after I get up again.
My torturer sadist physio has suggested talking to our occupational therapist and changing my chair, which I shall, but does anyone have any experience or advice on seating to look into?
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

This[^] would probably alleviate the problems caused by lengthy sits!

Am not! I'm healthy for the most part, and the only pains I battle are my feet (which the cat attacks to wake me up) and my right shoulder which I damaged in a motorcycle accident many, many years ago and still gives me grief in damp weather.
And QA. But that goes without saying.
