A Tribute to Fox "News"

From Jesus' General:

Sunday, May 04, 2008 Forever Dumb Forever Dumb (a disrespectful parody of Bob Dylan's Forever Young) May FOX caress and freep you always May its news keep you unglued May you mock so many others And let others mock for you May you watch a network made of straw Burning in the sun May you stay forever dumb Forever dumb, forever dumb May you stay forever dumb May you grow up to be mindless May you grow up to be fools May you never seek the truth That would come blinding you May you always be a follower Who obeys the wagging tongues May you stay forever dumb Forever dumb, forever dumb May you stay forever dumb May your thoughts always be clouded Your fog is such a gift May you watch a generation Watch them fall right off the cliff May your heart always be fearful May you buy a hundred guns May you stay forever dumb Forever dumb, forever dumb May you stay forever dumb

WEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!

From Novell's closing arguments in SCO vs Novell (Transcript @ Groklaw.net, scroll down to pg 701):

Your Honor, Novell here seeks for the Sun license, $9,143,809. That was the amount that was paid of the $10 million total.

For the Microsoft, we seek the revenues that were paid in Section 2 and Section 4, $9,750,000.

And for the other license, we ask for all of that money because there has been simply no breakdown between UnixWare and SVRX licenses. And that's $1,156,110.

So, the total that we are asking for from this Court is $19,979,561.

We believe that justice and equity would not be served if SCO's litigation-driven characterization of these licenses were allowed to carry the day. We believe the facts and the evidence and the law do not allow such a result. Thank you, Your Honor.
