3/2 Recent news articles show that income decreased for average
Americans, +$1mil home sales surged by 24% from 2004 to 2005,
home school trend is going up up and up, 2 newly appointed
conservatives, Patriot Act nenewal, Fox News rating going up,
Free Republic & National Review subscription going waaaay up, etc.
It appears that conservatism is stronger than ever, despite all
the distractions from Iraq, Katrina, Enron, Cheney. So I'm
curious. Besides whining, what are you liberals gonna do
about it? -liberal troll
\_ Buying remote land and the needed supplies to get off the grid.

besides trolling.

I could go on, but I won't.
\_ YOUR own little liberal world is the internet. But you're
forgetting the sales of Bible and the CB radio (internet

\_ Off your meds again today? Watch out for those black
helicopters.
\_ Hey! That's someone else!

The network did particularly well with women, upping its 18-49 demo 11 percent and raising its stake among the 25-54 demo by 16 percent. The network has a surprise mid-winter hit on its hands with season two of Dirty Jobs, an unscripted original series that's averaged 13 household rating and 17 million total viewers since debuting in January, and has had continued success with its returning strip MythBusters, which averages 14 million viewers per premiere episode. Sibling network TLC hasn't had quite as stellar a month, averaging just 719,000 viewers in prime, but that dip of 1 percent is relatively stable, given the network's precipitous 23 percent decline between 2004 and 2005. The net has seen a slight increase in women 18-34, upping that segment of its audience by 5 percent over February 2005. A number of the larger ad-supported cable nets were down in February, including Sci Fi Channel, which was off 18 percent on the month, dropping to an average 109 million total viewers from a year-ago average of 133 million. Spike TV tumbled 16 percent and Nick at Nite was off by 19 percent. Bigger nets that showed ratings growth in February include USA Network, up a hearty 13 percent to an average 254 million viewers in prime, and the non-ad-supported Disney Channel, which parlayed its original movie hit, High School Musical, into a 20 percent ratings surge, averaging 227 million viewers in prime for the month. FX also continued to shine in February, luring 22 percent more viewers with the return of its gritty cop drama, The Shield. VH1 raised its ratings by 15 percent in prime, averaging 670,000 viewers per night, while Hallmark Channel jumped 11 percent. On the whole, most cable nets were flat or slightly down. TNT was off 5 percent, although its 245 million viewers was enough to put it in second place for the month behind USA. TNT sister net TBS was flat, averaging 161 million viewers in prime. MTV was up 3 percent in the time slot, Court TV was down 3 percent, and TV Land was up 5 percent with an average 976,000 viewers tuning in. On the news side, the smaller news outlets showed the greatest growth as CNN Headline News soared in prime, elevating its audience by 73 percent to 347,000 total viewers. MSNBC was up 24 percent to 357,000 total viewers, and CNBC jumped 37 percent with 164,000 viewers. CNN was up 3 percent with 657,000 viewers, while ratings king Fox News Channel was off 5 percent, averaging 149 million viewers. In the core 25-54 demo, MSNBC, Headline News and CNBC were up significantly in prime (35 percent, 61 percent and 37 percent, respectively), while CNN was up 3 percent. FNC was off 21 percent in the demo in prime, with 344,000 viewers in the category tuning in.

The same fucking retards who drive around in 5000 pound SUV's while talking on cell phones, blast through crosswalks at 55 mph without looking and park on sidewalks (ie the American public) should NOT EVER be alowed to fly. They WILL park in trees over sidewalks, which will break causing even more pedestrian slaughter. They will park on roofs where it is unsafe, run into power lines causing outages, crash into office buildings (out of sheer stupidity at first, then the terrorists will start using them as bombs), get stuck in trees and have to be choppered out, and break down over crowded areas and crash like stones. We'll see how funny you think it is when some fucker crashes their flying SUV into the side of YOUR house, or after a flying car parked in a tree falls and kills YOUR dog. mspx arriving 2006 formerly Windows codename "Longhorn" Bringing clarity to your world.
