I'll warrant it looks bad, but we've been planning that pullout since autumn 2004! The British people for some reason are more supportive of our involvement in Afghanistan. Nonetheless, it feels bad to back out on you chaps.

In which case I hope he has the best of luck. It's an admirable goal. I wouldn't worry too much. Just keep in mind that your geek market is very parochial. I think my point does apply after all. Certainly there are anime geeks, but the rest of the geek market can get very snooty about them. *thinks* Unless you made a geek specific range of marketing fronts for each geek genre. *thinks* I should be in bed asleep.

British universities are far superior. They opt instead for an arrogant sort of apathy where the students do pod all and claim this is being cool. Their only diversions are rowing, drinking tea, and flatulence. Much better than fraternities.

No. The 'empty' segments have to be enjoyed on their own accord (for their beauty, a concept which apparently is unknown in cinema). The symbolism is actually quite elementary and only a small portion of the whole. Can't comment on those films since i haven't seen them, but judging from this trailer it doesn't look like something i might be interested in. My taste in cinema is fairly limited though. I tend to find the other arts (literature and music in particular) to be much more satisfying. Their beauty? Surely you jest, sir! *drops monocle* How are they enjoyable in their own right? I meanI sat through the original opening of Lawrence of Arabia and enjoyed it, but I'm damned if staring at a man walking around in a circle followed by the equally thrilling experience of seeing him listlessly fulfil inflight checks qualifies as either edification or entertainment! I am sorry to be so strident, but Kubrick abused my goodwill generated in his other films and stole two and whatever hours of my life! If he were still alive I'd bloody well take them off him! I've never been so bored, and I've been to Witney.

Well I pushed myself hard today, even if I failed to make warp speed. Just keep trying, I guess.

Yeah and seee if they side with Bonaparte again!

Do continue...

Moving to chapter 8...

Anyone else still checking their miles and a halves? I've been consdiering this business of a mile and a half (3.4 km) in 10.5 minutes. That's about 5m/s! It sounds ruddy impossible. I don't believe humans can move that fast... *regards solid lard-based physique dubiously*

Lyric Suite, I shall resist the urge to feel patronised since I'm sure that was not your intention. Your suggestion is, I take it, that: 1. 2001'a long seemingly empty segments of watching hostessses and men walking around are loaded with symbolism that makes them in fact full. Whereas I put it to you that I have watched films that are seemingly empty, and are packed with stuff happening past the surface. 2001 is not one of those films. It is a case of the Emperor is extraordinarily dull and self-involved. For comparison I draw your attention to In the Mood for Love - Wong Kar Wai 9 Sonatine - Micheline Lanctot The latter is especially apposite since it takes a short story and makes a short film out of it. Rather than taking a short story and dragging it out into a feature film.

Never having heard her off a carefully edited an balanced track I would suggest she is not a great singing in a Ella Fitzgerald, Ruth Moody sense.

If there's a sign telling you to move to consoles then it's not a sign from God.

Thanks for asking, samm. It certainly seems that way. I had to scrape a lot of dust out, but far less than I expected. I'll be keeping an eye on her as time goes by.

Wankers, the whole lot of you.

Had this copper drafted legislation to discharge all coppers who did the same? It's not a perfect analogy, but your copper ain't such a hypocrite tosser as Sen. Craig. Fair point.

Tale, good man! Are you going in with detective ambitions or do you just plan to walk the mean streets dispensing homilies?

2001 Is the second worst film I have ever seen. I don't believe it could be any more self-indulgent or boring.

Good choice of producers on the tune. Britney is still a hopelessly lost soul and pretty much despicable. Is anyone else disturbed that mkreku is behaving like Perez Hilton?

Assistant to the bean counter. The bean counter does a lot of extra office work and is more of an office manager. I mostly do entry level accounting. Data entry and some reconciling. I predict you will die of an enraged parsimony gland by the age of 40.

I just had an awful realisation that you could probably do better by joining the NFL.

It could explain that terrible sense of deja vu I get when jelly wrestling.* *Like I say, Sand, old man, you've been wasting a lot of time.

I heard about this in the reviews of the gamee. I have to agree with Kaft. I think this sort of rubbish just punishes regular Joe users.

Soviet humour ftw!

Or my favourite: "Jesus CHRIST on a little donkey."

assuming you mean "smugness," i'm guessing you watched south park last night? taks I don't own a TV, and I said 'SNUGness'. BUt otherwise you're 100% right.
