In a legal blow to the tobacco industry, a federal judge in Brooklyn ruled yesterday that people who smoked light cigarettes that were often promoted as a safer alternative to regular cigarettes can press their fraud claim as a class-action suit. Judge Jack B. Weinstein of Federal District Court in Brooklyn found “substantial evidence” that the manufacturers knew that light cigarettes were at least as dangerous as regular cigarettes.
William S. Ohlemeyer, associate general counsel of Altria, whose Philip Morris division makes half the nation’s cigarettes, said “the judge is wrong on the law and wrong on the facts.” Mr. Ohlemeyer said that the government, not tobacco companies, promoted the idea that lights were a safer alternative cigarette.

Hmm.. i think they all remind me of me!!(lol) specially these two..
"Nothing" - This is the calm before the storm. This means "something" and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with "nothing" usually end in "fine".
"Loud Sigh" - Although not actually a word, the loud sigh is often misunderstood by men. A loud sigh means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you over "Nothing".
H.G. Wells
Moral indignation is jealousy with a halo.
Adapt or perish, now as ever, is nature's inexorable imperative.
After people have repeated a phrase a great number of times, they begin to realize it has meaning and may even be true.
- All from Herbert George Wells, 1866 - 1946

Annoying Coworker
Basically this webpage lets you send your coworkers a note telling em how much certain things they do annoy the heck out of you.. =T .. ta mendio pendejo hacerlo asi..pero its kinda funny ver lo que escribe la gente.. aunque a veces se pasan de mean!
“Hey - stop picking your big nose and digging for gold when you think no one can see you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
me acordo al stalker and my boss!!!!
“Quit bringing your breakfast into work so you can spend the first half hour eating it instead of working. That doesn't count as being to work on time, if you're not working. Same goes for taking a full lunch hour, only to bring your lunch back to work and blow another half hour eating it before you get back to work.”
Yup!... i know tons of people down here who do this!!
“If you email me, don't come over and tell me that you emailed me. I don't email you to tell you I'm going to come over and talk to you. Stop wasting my time.”
LOL..
“GUYS! Stop scratching your privates at work! I do not care if you need to "adjust", just go someplace private and do it. When you do it for all to see, it makes me wonder if you have issues down there and that just scares me. Worst of all, do not scratch when you are standing next to me while I am sitting at my desk. This puts your crotch at my face level and if you don't quit, I just may throw up on you someday soon. Please just resist the urge because it makes me want to stab my eyes out!!!”
Lo peor es que once you guys scratch.. we cant help but stare... =T
