  1. I doubt the guy can do it. -=Mike If you saw the news piece, his method does work. The only problem is whether or not going through the entire process to turn trash and other waste (including sewage and animal parts) into oil/gas is economically feasible, ie cheaper than paying to continue to import oil and gas. Initially I doubt it will be, but if the guy is given 5 years to refine the process while continuing to produce oil/gas, I think he should be given the chance. What he produces could be used to sure up reserves or something like that. The bigger benefit initiially is that they can start clearing out landfills and turning it into something thats actually worth something. If you think about it long term, 25 years from now, instead of having landfills, cities could have trash converting centers to produce their own oil/gas. If every large city had these, then Im sure that we would significantly reduce, if not completely do away with, our dependence on foreign oil, and it would be significantly cheaper as well. But of course, like has been said, the Oil Companies will have something to say about this and it will probably keep it from ever getting implemented on that large of a scale.
  2. And I was betting he was gonna get killed back when his dad rented him that expensive car so he could impress his girlfriend.
  3. Wait a second.. Ok, so if Linda is just as bad as Vince, and Steph used to be as bad as Vince (HHH/Angle/Jericho....) WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO SHANE?
  4. They're worth an extra half billion if you throw Fed Ex Field in to the equation... To think Snyder ONLY paid 800 million for everything, hes doubled his initial investment in 5 years.. SELL DAN! SELL! PLEASE?
  5. Damn. No one is going to be able to afford to make an offer to Dan Snyder to buy the team, which means the George Steinbrenner wannabe will be around for a while and the Redskins will continue to suck.. EDIT: I may have put too many 9's at the end behind the decimal, but it actually works that way better, they aren't even worth 1/1000th of a cent right now.
  6. I thought we were getting a OLM beatdown by the REAL BROCK LESNAR? That would be worth the price of admiss..er..uh.. you get the point. They cancel a match that many people would actually wanna see, probably in favor of Big Show/Albert/Lesnar vs Taker/Angle/????
  7. PS3 Auction Ok, I know thats not a real PS3, but that is ugly anyway. The good news is no one has been stupid enough to put a bid down, yet..
  8. Text Messaging = Internet Chatrooms/Forums
  9. Hmm.. JR: Well, now that Shane vs Eric Bischoff has been scratched, it seems as if we have a replacement match.. Test vs Scott Steiner!
  10. Damn, I have heard cable prices were going up, but almost 50% in the last 5 years and its almost $50 a month.. *does quick calculations* Thats about twice what I pay per year total.
  11. I just saw this on the news. My first thought was, there's no way that this gets off the ground. The Oil companies will no doubt lobby in Washington to get the guy shut down over some bogus concerns or something. Yet, its an awesome idea because it not only produces oil and gas, but they can get rid of garbage thats been piling up in landfills. Its sort of like a story I read in WIRED recently about a company in Florida who is making real "cultured" diamonds which are almost exactly like real mined diamonds except that they are cheaper. De-Beers, the Cartel that pretty much runs the diamond industry and sets prices for diamonds artificially high by not releasing very many diamonds each year (similar to the OPEC for Oil) are mad and trying to discredit the diamonds (saying stupid things like if you really love a woman who you are about to marry, you'd spend twice as much on a diamond half the size of a "cultured" diamond, size and price being the only difference between the two)... There is no way the oil companies are just going to let this man ruin their business overnight.
  12. More people who are gay = less people who have kids. Its obviously a subliminal media campaign by the government for population control.. /paranoid mode off
  13. Did Hollywood and the RIAA have some sort of retreat weekend in Montana recently? Hollywood has plenty of excuses...but not enough new ideas..
  14. Hmm. The WWE should send HHH over there to play himself.. HHH: Nobody gets to play me-uh but me.
  15. They=The voices in his head
  16. We're gonna start this with next weekends preseason games, right?
  17. My money is tied up in next week and then in 3 weeks.. LOTR, Simpsons Season 3 and 24 Season 2!
  18. Im only 2 pts out of first. Im mad I didn't start Vazquez, but I picked this weekend to try and keep my IP low. Plus I've had bad outings from Harden and Gobble to deal with, as well as dumping Chacon since he's done for the year. Picking up Jose Reyes of the Mets is looking to be one of my good moves, as was picking up Reggie Sanders (he was dumped from the Hitmen but no one claimed him, so I did) with Bonds being out until tomorrow (hopefully) and Adam Dunn out for 2-3 weeks. Im probably gonna dump Adam Dunn anyway, since this isn't a keeper league..
  19. or as we call it B.G Before Gordon. Jeff Gordon started in 1993. I've been watching since 1994. I remember there being fights when I first started watching. And they don't call Jimmy Spencer Mr. Excitement for nothing. He's one of the few drivers left who drives in every series that he can get to. In a time where drivers are often scared to try and bump people out of the way if need be to gain spots, I think hes one of the few that still does.
  20. Well have you ever sat down and thought that the tag division on Smackdown sucks. Actually, you know what would be funny? SPWGTT gets a match....... vs Billy Gunn/Jamie Noble.
  21. I think he actually over-sold it to the point where you could tell he wasnt really hurt. Or maybe Im just really cynical about anytime a wrestler gets "injured" in the ring.
  22. The first since WCW GAB '00. Yeah, and I actually have a shot at going. Im close driving wise to Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington, Norfolk, and Richmond (a stretch..) but they rarely do PPVs from any of those cities. I was actually thinking about trying to get up to Hershey Park for Unforgiven (and do the park on a slow weekend in Sept!) but Baltimore is much closer. Sucks that the Ravens are in Cincy that weekend..
  23. Jericho HBK Kane Nash Kane Goldberg HHH
  24. This is all a part of NASCAR trying to keep its good clean family image up and trying to sever ties to the old NASCAR (pre 1995 or so) where fights were common in the pits.
  25. For the keeper league, it looks like they are close to adding the live draft feature so Im optimistic that we will be able to do a live draft. It might be cutting it a bit close to the start of the season, but that might be a good thing considering potential injuries in the upcoming preseason games.
