Or Big Bill -> "The world record for the heaviest pig so far is held by Big Bill, owned by Elias Buford Butler of Jackson, Tennessee. It was a Poland China breed of hog that tipped the scales at 2,552 lb (1,157 kg) in 1933. Bill was due to be exhibited at the Chicago World Fair when he broke a leg and had to be put down." -wiki

You're trying to kid me! Loading images is what drags the thread down, rendering text is really really fast!

So I guess your video card uses something other than pixels to render text....something that is faster right ?

Or maybe it doesn't bother to draw the gray background the text is written on right ? I'm trying to figure out just how drawing the text is faster.

I assume when you're running your browser, you stop any and all other network programs on your PC ? Like Windows Update, or Bittorrent or Skype....right ?

Yeah, but:

A) Pork is defined as: Some part of a pig. That's fine, but the question, "What part?" still bothers me.
B) Mostly?!?!?!? There's enough space there for some real surprises.

He couldn't have had far to go. They probably couldn't fix the leg because they couldn't find it.

There is a cost to downloading those images for those of us who are doggedly sticking to a slower broadband connection.

Images in HTML webpages are generated by IMG tags which your browser gets by downloading asynchronously somewhat like how AJAX works. I've observed that browsers don't generally load images at the expense of the page that their embedded in.

I can only imagine Big Bill trying to crawl around his pen using his "arms" before they put him down.
