    This show is nuts. LOST's shitty writing can sit the fuck down and let Daybreak run shit for a while.

    Hooking my computer up at School?

    You're going to need an Ethernet card. There is no dual ended port. The port you're seeing is connected to your 56K modem and won't be able to help you out here. I suggest you buy a cheap PCI 10/100 Ethernet Card. There are any number of manufacturers and you can get them as cheap as $12 from major chains like Best Buy. You'll have to open up your computer. You'll see a row of PCI slots (just look for the slot that your 56K modem is slotted into). Just slot in the Ethernet card (it can only go one way) and use a small phillips head screwdriver to lock it in place (you'll see little holes where the screws will go). Your computer (assuming you have Windows 98 or later) will auto recognize the Ethernet card and you're good to go when you leech off your school's network.

    Why can't I play DVD's

    Your computer has associated your media files with Nero's Media viewer. The easiest workaround is to pop in the DVD, let the computer give you the error and then access the files from your My Computer. You can right click the file and re-associate with any number of handy viewers like WM10 or whatever else you may have.

    My CD/DVD burner is dead.

    Quoted for fucking truth The effort you'd put into fixing your old burner isn't worth the while. You can buy a brand new Pioneer 111 16X Dual Layer DVD burner (and get firmware upgrades off their site) for $39.99 if not cheaper.

    Firefox issues

    Have you guys bothered to leave comments on Mozilla's forums? They need this kind of feedback to improve their product. I upgraded to 2.0 a few days ago and the only complaint I've had is that my "read mail" option in the tools menu is gone. I've never noticed a memory problem but 2GB of RAM will do that.

    Gimmick/Extra Accounts.

    If double accounts/gimmick accounts only serve as a detriment to the board, why are they allowed in any form to begin with? Why can't people just talk shit under their primary account?

    Grey's Anatomy

    Does no one else watch this show? I thought the season premiere was solid if uneventful. I was praying Izzy would somehow be taken off as a main character but so much for that.

    Puroresu comments

    I don't see Misawa putting Marufuji over. While we can all agree that Misawa's body doesn't appear to have much left, it is far more likely that they'll end up in a draw situation than anything else. Misawa with the title makes no sense. Marufuji over Misawa is too far fetched. So the only scenario left is to give Marufuji the credibility he needs (hanging with the legend) while ensuring the Misawa's stature doesn't drop by losing to a junior (whether he's the best junior in the company or not). It'll require careful booking and Marufuji won't be able to blow his load with insane moves like usual but it can be done. On a related note, I do not believe Misawa has ***** left in him. The combination of breaking down body and the fact that the crowd really doesn't believe in him as an ace anymore basically combines to form a situation that while the match will be enjoyable, it won't be anything that people will remember for years and that's what the true ***** MOTY is all about.

    Grey's Anatomy

    Best episode of the season this week. I haven't actually legit laughed out loud at this show since season 1. I really hope they make Bailey into super bitch after she realized what Chrinstina had done with the O.R. board. She's let all her interns get away with so much shit. Alex will blackmail the plastic surgeon into becoming his intern. Bet it.

    Matches to Check out

    I sat down to watch KENTA vs Marufuji GHC Title Match. I've seen a few threads around the net with the usual MOTYC and praise that tends to come with singles matches between these two. First of all, this match is long. Like 35 minutes long. I had my doubts about these two going that length of time. A lot of their moves are very taxing on the body and putting themselves through that kind of punishment for that length of time could have led to problems executing down the road. I'm happy to say that their bodies held up, though I wonder at the price. These two really kill each other. There's a very big "ooohhh aaahhh" factor from start to finish. Some of it they do to each other, other times brought on by their own recklessness. Marufuji's Quebrada over the railing will really make you cringe. He literally catches his neck on the rail going over. I thought he might have crushed his Larynx pulling it off. Other moments, like the Apron Falcon Arrow now in use as my avatar, are highly punishing moves that really didn't get the due respect. There have been many a spot in NOAH big matches where a monster move gets the nail biting 19 count and in this case it didn't even reach that point. The idea of brushing aside the big move for retaliation has never been something I enjoyed, this being no different. There are points where these two completely disregard impact (rolled through rampway German Suplex? COME ON!). It harkens back to the Big Four brushing aside monster shots and eventually collapsing to applause. It's not believeable and I don't care for it. The story is simple and effective. It very much reminded me of Kawada vs Kobashi. KENTA plays the Kawada role, just annihilating Marufuji with one punishing kick, punch, suplex, after another. Marufuji is Kobashi. He's 1993 high flying crying like a little girl because of the pain but suck it up because he's tough Kobashi. It's 35 minutes of KENTA killing this guy and Marufuji finding a way to suck it up and holding on to the will to win. You know just by the theme of the match how the outcome will be. It's simply not balanced enough to put any doubt in your mind that the champion will retain. A loss with this kind of theme would have been a glorified squash. The only answer is to have the champion persevere through all the punishment and still hold his title. I recommend going out of your way to see this match. It's high impact, innovative wrestling with all the usual big near falls and a nuclear crowd. I don't know if it deserves MOTY honours but I watched this very late last night and may not have really taken it all in. A second viewing will probably help with my decision on the matter. For now I'll throw ***3/4 at it.
  13. Nice body. Leena also made this thread, which has provided me entertainment for the last few minutes.

    LOST

    I'm confused. If the boat was on the south side of the island, and Sayid's crew went around to get to the north end, wouldn't someone have noticed the other island? It didn't look like a small plot of land. Seems hard to miss.

    UFC 65: GSP vs Hughes II

    I think the personal favourite is for GSP to take it. However, I think that Hughes is still going to take is. His stand up is comparable, his wrestling is better. GSP has the submission advantage but I don't think it's so superior that Hughes can't deal with it. I figure Hughes in the 3rd as well. Monson has zero chance. He's going to get picked apart. Silvia's got better striking and that insane height advantage. If Monson can take this to the ground by some miracle, it's his only (slim) chance of winning it. Vera vs Mir is win/win for UFC IMO. Vera seems to be the golden boy and a win over the former champ would be a huge lift. Mir on the other hand is desperately trying to get himself together. If he can put a win together over a surging fighter, it'll be massive for his career.
  16. This match isn't nearly as good as I remember. Absolutely molten crowd makes it come off better than it is. Man... I don't even remember DX being heels with HHH as champion. Lilian Garcia's been around for six years?

    North Korea Agrees to end Nuke Program

    I don't know the legalities of it but why does the US get to dictate to other countries whether they should or should not have nuclear weapons?

    That video is pretty old and fake. IIRC, it was used in a commercial for a jap women's wrestling fed. There's a colour version with sound floating around the net.

    Grey's Anatomy

    Last night was pretty good. The girl that can't feel pain was a fun storyline. I didn't see the point in giving the guy who got the brain surgery another problem to deal with unless they plan on continuing his story. Bailey as concerned pseudo mom to Izzy is terrible and makes me sick.

    Smallville Season 6 thread

    I was pretty disappointed in the opener - Zod's defeat was ridiculously easy - Clark escapes the Phantom Zone in one episode while doing practically nothing - No explanation as to how Martha & Lois survive A PLANE CRASH the only cool thing about the whole show was Lana getting stabbed in the hand. I did NOT see that one coming.

    TSM List of Fallen Posters

    Don't forget the Bower/Anderson Connection. They helped start this board when it took over from The Smarks. Black Tiger, Tim Cooke, and Wolverine were mainstays in the Puro/Other Wrestling folders Texas Small Arms (I think that's the name) was a regular in the Porn folder.
