Can someone please send me an internet?

[underpants]

I just had two co-workers who had never heard of the tubes of the internets.



There’s one company now you can sign up and you can get a movie delivered to your house daily by delivery service. Okay. And currently it comes to your house, it gets put in the mail box when you get home and you change your order but you pay for that, right.

But this service isn’t going to go through the internet and what you do is you just go to a place on the internet and you order your movie and guess what you can order ten of them delivered to you and the delivery charge is free.

Ten of them streaming across that internet and what happens to your own personal internet?

I just the other day got, an internet was sent by my staff at 10 o’clock in the morning on Friday and I just got it yesterday. Why?

Because it got tangled up with all these things going on the internet commercially.

So you want to talk about the consumer? Let’s talk about you and me. We use this internet to communicate and we aren’t using it for commercial purposes.

We aren’t earning anything by going on that internet. Now I’m not saying you have to or you want to discriminate against those people

<…>

The regulatory approach is wrong. Your approach is regulatory in the sense that it says “No one can charge anyone for massively invading this world of the internet“. No, I’m not finished. I want people to understand my position, I’m not going to take a lot of time.

<…>

You’re asking now that to tell people who do have these systems that they can not ask that someone pay for the increased capability provided for what — for business. I don’t have to have that kind of speed they’re talking about, in terms of speeds that they’re going to put in the internet. But people who are streaming through 10, 12 movies at a time or a whole book at a time for… consumers… those are not you and me, those are not consumers, they’re the providers. And those people who provide these things and use the internet for a delivery service, rather than for a concept of communication, that’s the difference.

<…>

Here we have a situation where enormous entities want to use the Internet for their purposes to save money for doing what they’re doing now. They use FedEx, they use the delivery services, they use the mail. They deliver it in other ways and they want to deliver it vast amounts of information over the internet. And again, the internet is not something you just dump something on. It’s not a truck.

It’s a series of tubes.

And if you don’t understand those tubes can be filled and if they are filled, when you put your message in, it gets in line and its going to be delayed by anyone that puts into that tube enormous amounts of material, enormous amounts of material.

2. That's not as scary as this

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ted_Stevens

United States Senate
In December 1968, Governor Walter Joseph Hickel appointed Stevens to the U.S. Senate after the death of Democrat Bob Bartlett. In 1970, Stevens was elected to finish the term in a special election, and has been reelected six times since, in 1972, 1978, 1984, 1990, 1996 and 2002. His current term will expire in 2009.

7. Harold Azean, Alaska National Guardsman

"When I signed up, I never thought I would go to war. I mean, you never really think of Alaska being at war with anybody," said Harold Azean, 23, a Guard specialist.

11. I myself am a Ben Lupie fan:

Ben Lupie, 30, a Kongiganak carpenter who also is going to Iraq, said he was optimistic that all the men would come back.

"Us being a hunting people, I think it gives us an advantage," he explained, going into an impressive series of mimes: the light prancing of a caribou, the ripple of a fish just below the surface of a river, even the flapping wings of the ducks, cranes and geese that are just arriving on spring migration.

"We notice the tiniest motions," Lupie said. "So I think we'll be aware if something suspicious is up, and we'll know how to react."


:patriot:

13. Bush looks around the meeting room

"So are we completely out of ideas about what to do in Iraq"

There is a long vastly empty stillness until the meek voice of a lowly staffer is heard

"Excuse me sir.... maybe it is time to consider interpretive dance"

:rofl:

We are sending MIMES over there?!!?!?!

Oh god I am dying laughing here.
