...but Microsoft's $41 billion takeover bid appears to have backed Yahoo! into a corner, leaving the struggling Internet pioneer with the unpleasant choice of selling to a detested rival or pursuing other agonizing alternatives likely to require the help of an even fiercer foe, Google Inc.

637594 2008-02-05 03:25:00 There are reasons for doing that, especially if you or M$ are involved. wratterus (105)

If that was sarcastic, ignore the following reply:

Shotgun wedding:
A shotgun wedding is an expression referring to a type of wedding which is arranged less out of the desire of the participants, but rather to avoid embarrassment due to an unplanned pregnancy.

(Quote: Wiki)

SurferJoe is using that as an analogy.

637598 2008-02-05 04:04:00 I've said this once and I'll say it again: Google and Yahoo CANNOT merge because there are anti-trust laws against a combined company with such a large market share. beeswax34 (63)

How can you say that? It is obvious from his lack of knowledge about ducks that he had a deprived childhood.

We're not thick, no.

He has had a deprived childhood, take it easy with him.
