Man, WWE dvds at Best Buy are pretty fucking expensive. I saw the HBK dvd set at K-mart tonight for 19.99, it wasn't even on sale or anything, that was their price for it. I think the only dvds I would pick out of that list is the Wrestlemania 23 collectors tin as I haven't picked that up yet, and maybe the Raw 15th aniversity dvd as well. Ok and maybe the HHH one as well, because 14.99 is pretty cheap.

I almost bought the Austin dvd tonight at K-mart for 19.99 but when I got to the register to buy the dvd, the computer told the cashier that the sale couldn't happen because it was before the sale date, so I have to go back tomorrow. On the plus side I was able to shill out my next wrestling show as the cashier's son is a wrestling fan, so yay for possible new local fans.

I think it's because the last line of Vietnam games that came out a few years ago tanked and tanked hard.

According to gamespot.com Marvel Online has been "disconnected". Here's my response....NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Yeah I just called the gamestop here and they said tomorrow. It seems over the past few years it is changing from Tuesday to Wednesday that everything hits stores. Maybe since they don't control when the shipments come in, it was too hard to guarantee everything by Tuesday....but I swear, when I was younger, everything was sitting on the shelf by tuesday morning. I would check around other places, but since I am trading in a game I want to use Gamestop. Yeah I don't know when release dates changed. It used to be I'd stop by some chain like a Best Buy on a Tuesday and check out the new releases for everything. Games, movies, music, the whole deal. Now a Tuesday release can mean either it ships Tuesday or it's actually on the shelf on Tuesday. I don't know what happened. Get off my lawn you damn kids. This is what happens a lot of times with video game release dates. Monday and Tuesday are shipping dates for video games, while Wednesday has become the common video game in-store day. Tuesday used to be the common day but for reason that changed for no real reason at all. Now here's the problem, video game companies decide to release the shipping date of the game instead of the actual in-store date and the shipping date is a highly publicized thing and the stores (gamecrazy and gamestop) have no clue if the date that the video game company is advertising is the shipping or in-store date until the release date. So the day comes where this game is suppose to be out, but no one had no idea that actual date was the shipping date. So instead of the game being out on that day like it was advertised it just turns out, the date was just the shipping date. It's a bunch of bullshit really.

Your telling me someone was willing to pay for you to go to rehab which is a expensive thing to do, you wouldn't take them up on it?

I think I caught a glimpse of hair on the eye that looked at Hurley, but I could be wrong. The face came up so quick it was very hard to see anything other than the eye itself. If it means anything we know it's a white guy.

Chris Benoit Dead - Toxicology results released
Scroby replied to Human Fly's topic in The WWE Folder
Pro Wrestlers are independant contractors. If a wrestler was to tell a promoter that he was ok and there is nothing wrong with him, there is really nothing a promoter can do to try and force that wrestler to go see a doctor. Except maybe not book that wrestler until he does go see a doctor...but of course that means if the promoter is suspect to a wrestler that might actually have a injury that the wrestler is trying to hide. For example: Promoter: Hey Wrestler A, that was a pretty nasty chair shot you took last night. How are you feeling? Wrestler A: Oh I'm fine. No worries. Promoter: Ok, I just wanted to check with you. Stay safe tonight. -
People posting the same news that was posted a few posts above theirs or a page back and the subject has already been discussed and somehow a new convo starts about the same topic that has already been posted and discussed.

I've been wondering the same thing, I thought the HOF were "retired" wrestlers or performers...not counting JR.

Reason #......Fuck it, I lost count: Everyone still thinks HHH is the devil when it comes to putting people over.

How much are you getting back in taxes this year
Scroby replied to Youth N Asia's topic in General Chat
I owe Federal $10.00 and my state is $76.00...which I don't understand. Nothing changed on my W-2 last year, The unemployment really didn't have a impact on anything as it was for a very SHORT stint in 2007, and I donated a car where I was suppose to get $500.00 for. So I don't understand why I'm not really getting anything back. When I asked the person who did my taxes, I was told "it's because you made more money in 2007 than 2006. Which put you in a differant tax bracket." but I don't get how I would owe money because of that. -
How much are you getting back in taxes this year
Scroby replied to Youth N Asia's topic in General Chat
I'm not sure how much I'm getting back yet. I think it should be something good because I made a lot of money last year, but I also took a unemployment check or two where I didn't want taxes taken out...so I don't know how that will impact my taxes or not. They were only taking 40 dollars out for taxes so I'm not sure if they'll just take out those taxes when they process everything or not, but we'll see. So I SHOULD be getting a return from my last job, unemployment, and a donated car. So I'm hoping it's a pretty good return. I also heard that Bush is handing out money again like he did a few years back, but I don't know what the deal about that is. -
It would be one thing if Brock got destoryed but since Brock dominated the fight, it's a whole nother story. I mean lets face it, Mir really only got one move in, which was the kneebar, while Brock pretty much destroyed Mir the entire fight.

When does Mario Kart come out? I went to a Gamecrazy last night and was told the game was coming out in three weeks, but I looked on Gamefaqs list of release dates and didn't see on there. So when is it coming out?
-
Just watched the fight via youtube (thanks for posting that link), Brock looked really good and I think if Brock was able to stay focused on what he needed to do, he would have done a lot more damage to Mir. It seemed Brock just got lost when he stood up and had Mir's legs, which gave Mir time to think and get that opening he needed. None the less, Brock beat the shit out of Mir very quickly and before the fight was over, Lesnar busted Mir open. If Brock sticks with MMA, he's going to have a big MMA future.

How'd my reply to the post get pushed to the first post on the first page?
-
He was saying it - not he. He was talking about the island. Rewatching the premiere I was struck by how awesome the character of Ben is - perhaps more specifically the portrayal by Michael Emerson. He's at his best when he's captive. He slayed me with a few of his lines last night. Also: the piano version of Charlie's theme is pretty much perfect. It gets to me. It starts about 45 seconds in: http://www.divshare.com/download/3564735-93c Oh Hurley said "it"? I could have sworn Hurley said "he". My mistake.

So here's what I'm thinking. Jack did something bad and/or really fucked up between leaving and returning back to the U.S.. When Jack went to visit Hurley, Jack wanted to know if Hurley had sad anything or not. So I'm wondering if Hurley isn't suppose to talk about what excatly happen on the Island or if Jack did something really fucked up between leaving the Island and returning back to the U.S.. Oceanic 6: There are only 6 people that returned from the Island. Either something happen to the rest or the rest stayed on the Island and only Kate, Jack, Hurley, ???, ???, ??? knows who stayed behind or if something happen to the rest. Hurley also said that "he wanted them back there and he'll stop at nothing to get them back", so I'm wondering who "He" is. My guesses are Jacob, Locke, or Walt.

You havw 24 hours to answer the blue glow or your Wii explodes..true story.

Great episode, really great. Are we aloud to speculate stuff? I have a theory about the Oceanic 6 but I don't wanna step over a line if we're not throwing theorys out there.

He can't buy Netgear because he's using a Wii. Netgear products are generally incompatible with Nintendo products. My Netgear router works fine with my Wii. What. I demand details. What router, what firmware, what settings. Netgear 54 Mbps Wireless Router. I don't know anything about the settings or the firmware. When I plugged the router straight into my computer, it set itself up. Everything has worked fine since then.
