That’s all fine and good Chris - but really, how was the Carrot Top show?

Stu, I found a ton of hits on Google for ju-jitsued including this one for.
ju-jitsued is the second paragraph. Sorry about that..HardeHar

The key here is that Bluestreak built the Flash-based application from the ground up to run on embedded devices which are highly constrained for any or all of memory, processor and battery power. Since embedded devices like set top boxes are generally seen as niche markets, Adobe has never put a strong emphasis on them.

Bluestreak have Ju-Jitsued their experience into the white-hot mobile handset market and given themselves a nice head start over PC-based applications that use more resources and are slower. Mobile handset users want long battery life and improvements in this area are linear - there’s no Moore’s Law in the world of batteries. And while the other players are trying to solve the problem, customers want rich media apps now which gives Bluestreak the chance to grab share.

Lesnar got out ju-jitsued(I think I just made up a word).

You just debacled the English language.

Personally, my shop teacher was nuts. i think they all are…part of the recruitment process. He didn’t like the lamp I was working on for about 4 years, so he just took it away (it did look like crap) and told me to start over with about 2 weeks left in the quarter. If I had the money to put a contract on him, I would have. I swear I would. One sweetie was he…

Lesnar got out ju-jitsued(I think I just made up a word). He didn’t really get out wrestled. The art of the submission is what took him down. It will take him a little while but I would guess that Brock will learn how to avoid these mistakes and probably succeed in the long run.

People like the guy who wrote this rah rah piece above about Lesnar go on and on about what a jerk Belichick was. True enough. But when he wrote how Lesnar congratulated Mir (is that a name or part of one ?) he should have completed his comparison to the SuperBowl by saying the Patriot players also congratulated the Giants. Belichick is not the Pats. Belichick did not play a single down, so people need to let up on this “arrogance” crap.

I’m surprised that, of all things, Lesnar got out-wrestled. You’d think that that would be his one strength (other than being huge and scary, I mean.)

Then again, I suppose you can forgive him for forgetting his J Robinson training while he was busy turning Mir’s face into hamburger.

Looking at this guy’s Neando picture, with that rigid neck can he even move his head, tie his shoes, wipe his butt ? To me, remembering high school wrestling, this Crusher Kowalski stuff looks sorta lame…
