Whats Canadian have to do with it? They have a Parliment not a Senate.

He is the Senator from South Carolina. The one that is in the pocket of the RIAA.

Use the Web Luke. It will protect you and guide you.



Google has its uses. I was pretty sure that was who he was but I like to check. I make so many stupid mistakes when I don't.

No! <b>No!</b> NO! <b>NO!</b> NOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Use PNG, the open source alternative. BMPs are an evil Windows format that should never have been introduced!

P.S. Bill Gates must die, but Senator Hollings needs to die even more.

I do use PNG, as it has some compression. I thought BMP was a Mac invention

[Skanky Burns]

I wouldn't be surprised. Mac was using 'windows' way before M$ was

Oh! That Hollings - yep he's on the Death List ...

That sounds unique for a parlimentary system. I know England has the House of Lords as well the Commons but most parlimentary governments have just one House.

Thanks. I am no expert on Canandian goverment, I was pretty sure that Hollings was a US Senator but I had the sense to check that part out.

What would make the US Congress not a parlimentary system? It's not a parliamentarist system, but then neither are several other countries.

Ethelred is chastened.


I do make mistakes and I appreciate having them pointed out. So that I won't say the same stupid thing again anytime soon.

You should see the dumb stunt I just did on my PC. I wrote a batch file to defrag all the drives at once. I named it Defrag. Don't do that. REALLY don't that. It called itself.

I over 800 instances of the Command Prompt.

Even when it finally stopped by crashing I couldn't shut down as it was taking about six hours to close all the command prompts at 30 seconds each. I had to reset.

I am under the impression a parliment has a Prime Minister that is elected by the Parliment. The US has no Prime Minister. Now some countries have a Prime Minister and a President. Some of those Presidents seem to be pretty weak and others are nearly as strong or maybe even stronger than the US president.

There is no such thing as a vote of no confindence in the US because of this. The President is in till the next election barring impeachment and no President has ever been removed from office although Tricky Dicky certainly would have been if he hadn't resigned first.

The Senate is our House of Lords. Seats aren't hereditary, but are instead appointed by the PM to fill vacancies, plus enlarge as population grows. Our Senate has virtually no power. I believe its role is described as "advise and consent". One giant rubber stamp. If they're feeling particularly confrontational then they have the power to delay bills by 90 days.

[Urban Ranger]

Hm, couldn't they do that indefinitely? That would be an interesting power.
