All the previous questions and answers above would lead me to believe the answer is yes.

If you read between the lines, Scroby is saying TNA enjoys stealing ideas and making them worse with overbooked stipulations. A fair assessment, Scrobs!

I see. Yeah, that is a really stupid feature. Seems like it would do more harm to their attendance than good. Would an extra date or two on that page really hurt? Sometimes when I check for Detroit dates I completely forget to switch to "Canada" to check for London (and now Toronto that I have friends up there or even Windsor now that we have a new arena they could run in). I understand the idea is someone in Italy may not want to scroll through 45 US dates to check if a show is coming to Milan, would it be that hard to make searching by country and optional deal instead of mandatory?

It's because you need to select "Canada" as the country. I hated it when they switched over to that.

I've never done 2:22 but I'm a big proponent of :22, :33, ... :99. If something needs more than 1 minute and 39 seconds I just punch in whatever. I used to have the "1 - 6" instant cook settings on a microwave that stopped working a few years ago. The "buy a $30 microwave from Zellers / Wal-Mart that will stop functioning in 2-5 years but gets the job done while it works" has worked out for years. Ditto toaster ovens.

Slayer was an absentee poster for a lot of 2008, but that little bit up there was pretty amazing. Amazing enough for success in the POTY Tourney? We'll find out soon enough!

I'd like to keep that one a secret for now. Yeah, remind me not to trust you with any secrets. 6 MINUTES?

Maybe it will end up being a Tribute replay.

Well you could buy yourself something and call it a gift.

I noticed with the last episode that was, Holiday Hell, and probably the episode on now, ECW shows on 24/7 now have a warning screen advising that the shows are intended for an adult audience. This bodes well.

I believe Shawn says that between "The Heartbreak Kid and Shawn Michaels", there was only room for one of them, heh. I also liked the line about his non-dinosaur friends in WCW that would beat Bret's ass.

I'm noticing a pattern where I'm very excited to watch a history making Raw only to realize nothing all that exciting happens. I thought the midget was this week! DX has their theme now, though. The opening segment with Michaels and Shamrock seemed to go on forever, alternating between great due to the crowd hatred for Shawn to pointless and dull. Shamrock's promo cutting ability of just calling people names was pretty funny though.

Raw and SmackDown are both first run shows next week (taped on the same day in Toronto) and then it's back to Monday/Tuesday tapings for the 29th and 30th (which looks like a double SD! taping).

I love those pens - my mom has a few (she's a nurse).

Usually drinks in my case.

*Offer not valid at "The Source" Happy Birthday wishes to Diamondust. I don't think he ventures much further than the 24/7 section, but his posting there is appreciated, so have a good one.

Burning Pirate Ship noticed.

The Dick Tracy bit got a good laugh out of me.

YnA tried running one too. It was fun but it as I recall, he had an entire round 3 planned that somehow got erased and he lost the will to re-type it.

Well it didn't warrant a thread. Where was I supposed to put it? I considered everything that happened while I was out of town non-canon to 'my job'.

Windsor, btw.

Is a Thoth a kind of organ? I couldn't think of a way to work that one in.

If Hitler City, North Carolina hadn't changed their name to Charlotte, they'd be sunk.

I know I've been in the same place at the same time as others (I was at a Raw at the MCI Center on a visit to DC and I recall someone saying in the Raw thread they were very bored live, I'm sure some NYC based TSMer / ROH Fan was at the one and only ROH show I've been to, etc.) but I was only aware of it after the fact.

I've known former SWFer Drew_K for many years, but that really doesn't count.
