Lil' Bitch

I was refering to Bob reinjuring him. I wouldn't be surprised if Bob did it on purpose. Lets not forget he also injured Matt Morgan at a house show as well.

Basically, Luger was just WWF's lame attempt at replacing Hulk Hogan and while I was never a fan of his, I'm still a mark for SSeries 93 since The Undertaker turned out to be Tatanka's replacement.

It was the same dude Bob beat the shit out of on Tough Enough!

Can't say I blame him if they made him feud with CHYNA! Anyways, can we please get this back pinned?

I'm not surprised one bit. That stupid bitch.

Dan Koster was unpacking some of his more than 2,000 CDs after a move when he noticed something strange. Some of the discs, which he always took good care of, wouldn't play properly. Koster, a Web and graphic designer for Queens University of Charlotte, N.C., took one that was skipping pretty badly and held it up to the light. "I was kind of shocked to see a constellation of pinpricks, little points where the light was coming through the aluminum layer," he says. His collection was suffering from "CD rot," a gradual deterioration of the data-carrying layer. It's not known for sure how common the blight is, but it's just one of a number of reasons that optical discs, including DVDs, may be a lot less long-lived than first thought. "We were all told that CDs were well-nigh indestructible when they were introduced in the mid '80s," Koster says. "Companies used that in part to justify the higher price of CDs as well." He went through his collection and found that 15 percent to 20 percent of the discs, most of which were produced in the '80s, were "rotted" to some extent. The rotting can be due to poor manufacturing, according to Jerry Hartke, who runs Media Sciences Inc., a Marlborough, Mass., laboratory that tests CDs. The aluminum layer that reflects the light of the player's laser is separated from the CD label by a thin layer of lacquer. If the manufacturer applied the lacquer improperly, air can penetrate to oxidize the aluminum, eating it up much like iron rusts in air. But in Hartke's view, it's more common that discs are rendered unreadable by poor handling by the owner. "If people treat these discs rather harshly, or stack them, or allow them to rub against each other, this very fragile protective layer can be disturbed, allowing the atmosphere to interact with that aluminum," he says. Part of the problem is that most people believe that it's the clear underside of the CD that is fragile, when in fact it's the side with the label. Scratches on the underside have to be fairly deep to cause skipping, while scratches on the top can easily penetrate to the aluminum layer. Even the pressure of a pen on the label side can dent the aluminum, rendering the CD unreadable. Koster has taken to copying his CDs on his computer to extend the life of the recordings. Unfortunately, it's not easy to figure out how long those recordable CDs will work. Fred Byers, an information technology specialist at the National Institute of Standards and Technology, has looked at writeable CDs on behalf of government agencies, including the Library of Congress (news - web sites), that need to know how long their discs will last. Manufacturers cite lifespans up to 100 years, but without a standardized test, it's very hard to evaluate their claims, Byers says. The worst part is that manufacturers frequently change the materials and manufacturing methods without notifying users. "When you go to a store and buy a DVD-R, and this goes for CD-R as well, you really don't know what you're getting," he says. "If you buy a particular brand of disc, and then get the same disc and brand six months later, it can be very different." This renders the frequently heard advice to buy name-brand discs for maximum longevity fairly moot, he says. DVDs are a bit tougher than CDs in the sense that the data layer (or layers — some discs have two) is sandwiched in the middle of the disc between two layers of plastic. But this structure causes problems of its own, especially in early DVDs. The glue that holds the layers together can lose its grip, making the disc unreadable at least in parts. Users that bend a DVD to remove it from a hard-gripping case are practically begging for this problem, because flexing the disc puts strain on the glue. Rewriteable CDs and DVDs, as opposed to write-once discs, should not be used for long-term storage because they contain a heat-sensitive layer that decays much faster than the metal layers of other discs. For maximum longevity, discs should be stored vertically and only be handled by the edges. Don't stick labels on them, and in the case of write-once CDs, don't write on them with anything but soft water-based or alcohol-based markers. Also, like wine, discs should be stored in a cool, dry place. Koster's friend Mark Irons, of Corvallis, Ore., stored his CD collection in a cabin heated by a wood-burning stove. The temperature would range between 40 degrees and 70 degrees in the space of a few hours. Now, the data layer of some of his CDs looks as if it's being eaten from the outside. Irons is still pretty happy with CD technology, since it beats vinyl LPs and tape for longevity. Now that he's moved his discs to an apartment with a more stable temperature, he's noticed that the decay has slowed. "I'm hoping they'll hold out till that next medium gets popular, and everyone gets to buy everything over again," he says. Credit: Yahoo.com I'm all worried about my CDs and DVDs now.

HONOLULU - Gilbert Lani Kauhi, a member of the original cast of the "Hawaii Five-0" television series, died Monday. He was 66. His mother, Emma Kauhi, said the actor died in Hilo Medical Center of complications from diabetes. Kauhi, nicknamed Zulu, was a popular Waikiki beachboy when he joined the CBS police drama for its first season. He was cast as Detective Kono Kalakaua, the burly Hawaiian sidekick to the show's star, Jack Lord (news). He stayed with the show for four seasons but was fired after an altercation with the show's publicist. The show helped launch a successful entertainment career for Kauhi, who sang and joked to packed houses in and around Waikiki. "I know those were his enjoyable days," his mother said. "He was always full of excitement and he had many friends." Actor James MacArthur, who played Danny "Danno" Williams on the show, wept when he learned of the death. "I have many happy memories of Zulu," he said. "On 'Five-0,' he helped us understand how to say those Hawaiian words. I'll miss him." Credit: Yahoo.com

All the ones already mentioned plus The Powerplex (Power & Glory) The Sidewinder (Smoking Gunns) The Ball and Chain (The Basham Bros)

She's getting fat.

Yes because HHH would actually know what he is doing unlike Vince who lost his mind a long time ago and proved that by going through with the Katie Vick to which HHH himself didn't want to do. I agree about Nash. I had hopes for Steiner until I saw the RR fiasco. I disagree about RVD, he was insanely over in 2002 and had a very successful run as Intercontinental Champion, when it was time for him to move into the world title picture, instead of him fulfulling his destiny, HHH destroyed his dream and killed his heat down drastically. It would be the equivalent of doing that to John Cena later on this year if they tried a similar scenario. I thought Kane had a pretty good chance since he had just gotten back not to long ago at that time, had a complete makeover in character with a new look and new theme music (although yes I agree giving him a fun loving personality was a failure). I just felt it sucked since he was pretty over and was plagued by HHH at the very start of the feud so I figured Kane would get his revenge in the end and nope he got killed off too at No Mercy. Goldberg was a double edged sword since I couldn't fucking stand Bill ever, I wanted HHH that night and he did much to my satisfaction, but seeing how insane and I mean INSANE Goldberg was over with Phoenix that night, it made me wish HHH never hurt his groin and they kept it a singles match with Goldberg winning, I would even go as far as saying the buyrate for SummerSlam might have been higher since I know they would have built up the main event to a great degree. Word.

To be fair, SD was improving a bit, that is until tonight's show ruined all that.

Lawrence Taylor (yes, the football player) would have been perfect.

Amen to that, I plan on doing the same. Van Helsing looks to be better than Hellboy, I hope it will be.

They should have just recycled this pic for the poster, it would have been much better:

I'd just rent them as soon as they became avaiable so I can rip some of the extras. Undressed had the Stacy / Torrie bikini wresting match. Desert Heat had the Trish / Victoria Chicago Street Fight. South of the Border has the Lita / Victoria Steel Cage match. *just to note I just wanted to list the BEST extras.

Awe, congrats to Flair.

I don't mind Christian getting a title shot, just not on a PPV. It only helps for Bradshaw because of his size.

I should have the right to say, "Hey, this show fucking sucked."

But it'll be the FINAL Blow-off

I wouldn't mind kicking with it: - Zack Malibu - Bob Barron - JMA - Nice Guy Adam - Canadian Chick - Hoff - Kotz - Dynamite Kido - Living Legend Gary Coleman - AndrewTS - Downhome - Scroby - Chave

I'll start with a no brainer: The Triple Threat from WM XX because I wasn't convinced Benoit was winning and I would never dream in a million years that HHH would job cleanly on the OMG PPV OF ALL TIME~!!

Well that sucks, although I'm sure DVD sales will make up for it, I mean after all, it was a pretty good show.

Also: Benoit / Michaels; World Title Guerrero / Show; WWE Championship Both on PPVs. Non-title: Angle / Michaels or Flair

What's amazing about this is the guy survived. That's fucking crazy.

I hope he comes back as Mortis, of course WWE didn't want to utilize that gimmick.
