Good thing I record these because I didn't watch that fight. I'll have to check it out tomorrow morning. And don't you think Rampage could take his contacts out before he comes to the ring? Pretty funny.

So yeah... this is the mom that is due to give pups that I am on the waiting list for. I am going to get a free Mac laptop from my department, which will allow me to sell my iMac on eBay (still sells for about $900) and have no problems paying for this. Her name is Luna: One of her girl pups is going to be mine... I'm 95% sure.

I approve of all those dogs except the small one in the bag. Sorry about Chloe...that was a cute one.

The up-kick that set up the choke was deadly. Two points: 1) I really, really wish that Silva would learn how to speak English. He seems like he would be a charismatic guy. 2) I never want to see Travis Lutter on my TV screen again. EVER.

Cro Cop is a fucking assassin. He's like a living breathing Ivan Drago. All business. Those legkicks were SICK. The people in the nosebleeds probably heard them like a window slamming shut. Eddie Sanchez never stood a chance.

Rampage has a killer entrance, a killer personality, and he fights in the style that can easily make you a fan favorite. Chuck vs. Rampage will set buy records. I can see it now.

5 belts. Usually one defended per PPV. LW: Sherk WW: GSP MW: Anderson Silva LHW: Chuck Lidell HW: Tim Sylvia

UNC made some poor decisions down the stretch. The two main culprits were Brandan Wright and Wayne Ellington so hopefully this loss will be a positive and teach these freshmen some better shot selection - especially down the stretch.

Yeah... the last two years have been splits. The year that Carolina won the title, they held serve on their home courts (UNC barely on a Miracle shot + 1 from Marvin Williams) and last year they each won on the road.

Yeah - they fucking rock. You'll be a fan after the show...no doubt about it. They are amazing live.

Edit: Double post.

Does this have an effect on anyone's plans to order/not order the PPV? I'm still going to order. I want to see Rampage and Cro Cop.

Any Mac fanboys running this program? Released a new build today which GREATLY improves upon the past build. Stylistically and features-wise. If you're not familiar with the program, it runs all of the chat programs in one (MSN, AIM) etc and it's open code so people can make their own edits. They publish them all on their website and basically it makes it a very convenient and easy to use chat program. So...yeah. If you use Adium already - download the update - it rocks. If you have a Mac and you don't use it...check it out. EDIT: I thought I was in computers. Please move this.

It's not often that someone ruins a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity...but Travis Lutter just did.

With the UFC PPV and the Super Bowl this weekend, it kinda snuck up on me, but Duke/UNC #1 is this coming Wednesday. I'm hoping for a sweep this year.

Wow. What a moron.

Only 40% of Americans believe in Evolution? Jesus. How dumb.

I like Neon Bible. Whatever that means in relation to everyone else - I don't know.

Got these two today: http://www.threadless.com/product/730/Advisors and... http://www.threadless.com/product/693/I_Want_To_Be_Friends I really wanted the Advisors shirt and I wanted a second one to save on shipping. I had a hard time picking because while I liked a bunch of them - none of them jumped out as an obvious purchase.

And I'm currently watching season 2 of the Wire. There is one character, and don't spoil it, but if he dies... I'll be doing cartwheels in my fucking living room. He was the inspiration for this thread.

All you guys picking over on the Anthem would lose money. Billy Joel has sung the anthem previously, the longest he has ever sung it was 1 minute 37 seconds. There is only one Super Bowl national anthem that has surpassed two minutes, and that was sung by Beyonce. Research is critical.

True. It got good scores, as it should, because the features are good. But they aren't theirs, as they pointed out (as well as just about everyone else).

I love the slamming it's getting in the press for being a complete ripoff of OS X. cnet destroyed it. I've got nothing else except it will be rendered obsolete when Leopard releases this summer. I promise - no more Apple fanboyism in this thread from me - but you all know that Bill Gates was so successful ripping off the Mac previously that he doesn't even try to hide it anymore. He just does it.

When I listened to Gretchens news conference tonight, near the end she asked us all to say a prayer for Barbaro. Which of course I have and will do. But it reminded me of something Jackie Kennedy asked the whole nation to do on the night that JFK was assassinated. She asked everyone to light a candle (electric) and put it in your window tonight to guide his spirit home. For some reason this gives me great comfort, as though I am able to do one last thing for Bobby. This is just a suggestion for anyone who would like to do it for Bobby. I want to know that he is over the Rainbow Bridge. -- 4Barbo [Tim Woolley Racing] • I can't describe the awesome whirlwind of emotions I've felt over the last eight months--you've given all of us so much strength. I plan to name my first child Barbaro, in hopes that he has half the heart that you did. --Michael Sambuceti, 24; New York, NY, USA posted on 2007-01-29 14:25:18 [uPenn Message Board] • These were the first six songs that played on my ipod in shuffle mode after I heard about Barbaro: 1) The Fallen 2) Let the Four Winds Blow 3) Shine It All Around 4) You're the Reason I'm Leaving 5) All the King's Horses 6) Thank You. Completely random? Somehow, I think there is a connection...It's not the lyrics of the songs that struck me so much as the titles...Trying not to cry as I write this. -- jsrice [Tim Woolley Racing] IT'S A FUCKING HORSE. A HORSE YOU FOOLS. YOU NAME YOUR CHILD BARBARO...HE DESERVES THE BEATINGS HE WILL RECEIVE. FUCK! Ahem...sorry. I hate these people.
