  1. while we wait, I hope HBO releases a couple more season of a better show, Oz.
  2. Did anyone catch O'Reily tonight? I know Nader was scheduled to be on, but everyone's program on Fox is all warped and switched for the Convention coverage.......the replay comes on at 1am pacific, but I wonder if the show even aired with it's planned segments or not.
  3. Clinton's speech was indeed Grade A as for as rallying goes. I also think it was the right decision to put him on the first night to give a buffer zone between him and Kerry considering I doubt Kerry's speech will even be half as entertaining.
  4. damn I wish you would have posted the Ann Coulter article, her material is good for a laugh at the end of the work shift........oh well off to her website, whatever it is... EDIT: Ok I read it, wow, just wow. Well it sure delievered on the laugh-o-meter. Typical Coulter stuff.....
  5. So far I have played Jamie Kennedy who I lost to in the final seconds, because I was fooling around too much and then Funkmaster or whatever his name is, who handed it to me for awhile before I rallied for a close loss. When I get home from class tonight they are both getting their asses kicked.
  6. Another problem is that once you enter the work force, you usually start taking on more bills, possibly move out of your parents house, etc....so it makes it harder to go backwards, and it really limits your options.
  7. oh mah gawd......please reconsider HBO..
  8. Hey now, I am a Death Metal troll, but I also like Rap/Hip Hop, just not the hip hop that you hear on the radio and/or TV, I do believe that stuff is garbage, however there is a lot of rap & hip hop that I enjoy.
  9. the thing is, these folks are what the big corporate music studios choose to push, so they will sell and push this stuff onto kids as much as possible. I mean really, how hard is it to trick a bunch of kids into wanting this. If I was a 10 year old girl and I had just seen Freaky Friday with Lohan playing a guitar, I would probably buy into her as a musician. The only way to stop this madness as Jaxl put it, is to NOT buy the music, show the record companies that it isn't worth their time or money to spend their advertising dollars on this crap. Same with Ashlee Simpson, don't buy the crap, let them know that being a little sister of a vocalist is not grounds for her to get an automatic record deal.
  10. Well I can speak on my personal experience: NO IT'S A HORRIBLE IDEA. After highschool I had the "burned out" feeling too, so I didn't go, figuring I would work a few jobs, make some money and then go back. Well few years later I was in a decent paying warehouse job that I hated, and felt stuck. I am now in school, and doing fine, but the tech school I am going to is at least twice as expensive as the comminity college -transfer- university route, however I am doing it because I am 24, and don't want to wait 4 years to get a degree. I look back and marvel in the fact that I could have been finished with school and probably working a good job that I enjoy going to by now, yet I am now at a temp job and going to school at night. I am doing what I have to do, and it is mostly my own doing. It is not like I am depressed, on the contrary I am actually quite happy with my current status as my outlook is a lot better then I felt 2 years ago, however at the same time I know what the easier and BETTER route would have been, upon highschool graduation.
  11. I got used to smoke filling my lungs, just not from tobacco......... "OMG 4:20 DOODZ"
  12. In the era of 1-inning relievers, only the SUPERIOR BEST should get in. Rivera comes to mind instantly, since he has come up big in the post season and for years on end. Gagne has been great recently, but he needs to do it over 5-6 years to be in the same class as Rivera. Also there is the point already brought up that most relievers are guys who couldn't cut it as starters, which begs the question, could just about ANY starting pitcher be that much better at being a closer anyway? Rich Harden comes to mind, he throws in the upper-90's in the beginning of games, but he is having issues with his arm crapping out after a few innings, however if he was a pure 1-inning closer, where he could out and just gas it out for 1 inning would he be just as good as the other closers? Who knows.
  13. So anyone find the breakdown of the differences between the 3 different versions yet?
  14. Since when was Rico EVER funny? "Hurry up Jeff, goddammit" That was probably the funniest Rico moment ever, and it wasn't planned or kayfabe...
  15. gawd, still living in denial, or just a alternate dream world are we?
  16. Basically what Tyler said. Look if there is reason to believe suspicious acts happened, charge the man and give him his day in court. If he is guilty, throw the book at him. However, don't just start making things up to sensationalize the story for the purpose of effect.
  17. *chuckles* You truely do hate us don't you mike Hate? Never! However, I have seen all the previous Ironman matches so naturally I know exactly what to expect, especially considering this is Raw and not even a ppv where people halfway expect match times to go longer. How many rest holds will the live crowd be able to take?
  18. I would have classified Rico as almost a Richard Simmons character, and the fans didn't really respond whatsoever........So happy to have known ya Nova.... Can you imagine sitting in on this meeting, Vince: we got something hot for you, never been done before Nova: Sweet, I have some moves I have been working on, I think they will...(interrupted) Vince: whoa whoa, settle down there...what you need to worry about is this new character Nova: okay, shoot. Vince: An Exercize Guru ala Richard Simmons Nova: (sitting in silence with a forced smile on his face) ooohh yeaaah, that'll be just greeeaaat....!?! Vince: I just knew you'd love it.
  19. I can't wait to hear JR try to cover for the crowd that will die 10 minutes into the Iron Man match. Also this could be the most overbooked match in WWE history just to keep the WWE live audience awake.
  20. they need to make another wrestling game exactly like wcw/nwo revenge, just with updated graphics. That game was just about perfect for a wrestling game without all the glitz and glamour that gets old after about 5 minutes anyway. Some of those old WCW games were terrible, but the video promos were damn hilarious.
  21. I like the title, and am glad Lucas didn't shy away from a more harsh word like "Revenge" in favor of something lighter. Lucas has basically said there is going to be a lot of evil and dark things in this movie, so I hope it delivers.
  22. is your entire computer melting down or is it just DSL load times? After the last few months of overall computer slowdown in performance(DSL Loadtimes was about the only normal thing still working fine) I finally gave in and did a full system restore earlier tonight. Worked like a charm and the only thing I had to lose was a bunch of mp3s that I can get back anytime I want. Now the computer is working like I just took it out of the box.
  23. I saw it this Friday at a sneak preview expecting a funny movie, and it exceeded my expectations greatly. I dunno about your city, but there is ANOTHER sneak preview planned here for Monday night........go see it before the masses. I don't even want to discuss any details other then that it is hilarious........GO SEE IT.
  24. btw, anyone with the game and a PS2 wanna play a game online right now? get back to me ASAP.
  25. The big problem I have with Orton getting the belt is that it will probably end up being some scheme by Triple H(backstage or kayfabe either one) to syphon the belt back to himself through the use of Orton. Either Orton dummies the belt to Triple H, or Triple H turns face, which still results in Triple H winning the belt. I just don't think Orton as champ is the answer RIGHT NOW.
