[quote- TUM] ..is it possible to buy Rush Limbaugh & the other semi-literate barking heads
You want I should see Philll-the-Greek (Not that one) and get a contract for you?....
It may be cheaper than "Buying" a politician... although buying is easier, I believe they have a special handshake for that, that includes a brown envelope....
Although I must stress it is only alleged that the named politician above accepts brown envelopes.
(It could be a white one with pink edging for all we know.....)
Endlessly rich, I think I may keep the disaster relief convoy after its work is done, buy a few huge transport planes, and have it on standby for other world-wide disasters.

[quote-TLW]also set up a bot that faxes million page returns to any junk fax with a toll free number for response. (even if they use a computer to receive the faxes, that will still burn up hours of telephone time.) distribute the bot as freeware.
Already Done....
You feed a piece of paper in, and selotape one end to the other, so it forms a cylinder, then hit send................ as a continuous supply, it keeps on sending....
You can write "Dont call me again" on the paper.
Or something less polite.
Make it so it uses up the "Toner" or whatever printing medium they use.
The fax will continue until the machine at that end either runs out of paper, breaks, or is switched off.
Did I mention I am an extremely evil senior member already?....

Gonna buy a private island, install secret launch pads and runways on underground hoists and raise your kids as pilots and astronauts? Your surname wouldn't be Tracey, would it?  |

Politicians will all be outfitted with lie detecting shock collars...and seated above trapdoors that are controlled by voice-activated timers for when they talk too long... The Roman Senators had to hold a bowl full of water with a hole in it. If it stops dripping, they must stop talking. Some say that sometimes, the opposition added lots of salt to the food so the Senator holding his bowl has the choice between talking long and dry or short. ;D |

Is there some special form of hell we can find for the MTV execs that thought Jersey Shore was a good idea?? Doesn't matter much for us since MTV is encrypted over here. |

I'm with SD on the rescue & relief equipment. A fleet of dual rotor heavy haul helicopters added to the fleet might not be a bad idea. Also, an unlimited supply of teddy bears & hot chocolate for children effected by disaster or tragedy.

Not to mention phone costs when sending. The trick is messing their sending time while receiving the fax. Use a faxmodem and program it to act real dumb receiving from the numbers you want to harm by making it requesting to repeat the data over and over again, slowing it down to a few BPM (Bits per minute) to make the receiving of the fax take forever. I had one of those rigged Fax machines in use before FAX became obsolete. We mostly use secure email nowadays which is legally even better than FAX. The problem with those "as good as a mailbox" email system is that once the governmental clerks find out you have one of those accounts, they may send you official documents and just like your front door mailbox, you need to check the account almost every day for important governmental letters.  |

And by the way, a FAX transmission isn't Simplex as most people think, FAX is half duplex. If the sender is fully Fax compliant, you can send an answer without dropping the call so you can return a FAX without the need to drop the call so the other end keeps paying!
While this don't work with most cheap stand alone FAX machines which just hang up, it works with all computer FAX programs where the feature isn't disabled.

" If you were endlessly rich"? Hmm ... How many times can you divide infinity and not get a finite answer? Just make everyone else endlessly rich.  |

Something to add to my previous post -- I just found out that Mom is interested in being one of the summer volunteers at Rocky Mountain National Park, but can't afford both house payments at home and housing/food at Estes Park. So, all volunteers at national parks get a stipend to cover living expenses for the duration of their volunteer time. (Mom has to decide where I'm buying the summer house in Estes that she'll be living in whenever she feels like volunteering.)

Then again, if you wanted to mess with your mom, buy her a tent before she heads to the Park for the summer...  |
