Watchmen... There was a lot of imagry that you could find (Davinci, last supper and portrait of man among others). It was probably one of the better movies I've seen recently. Of course that doesn't say much, all I've seen in the recent times has been Taken, Pink Panther2 and this. I think I liked it more than Dark Knight because the characters weren't all black or white. Of course I did love the line "Adrian, I'm disappointed in you"

I deduce from this that you can't spit 25m? hyperbole is my favorite tactic :D in terms of navy I think having a carrier group within the general area would discourage adventurism by the chinese.

sounds like the chinese are rattling their sabers and trying to show who's the big dog in the seas. Of course this will only work as long as US military ships aren't within spitting distance of the chinese vessels because neither country could afford a war.

well there is that SINGLE fight. But it's not like some of the others in Kara and Gruul where you HAD to have a priest (Moroes, Nightbane), mage (high king) etc. Theroetically if your priest has a good enough connection and is fast enough, he could do it solo on Instructor.

He should get together with my Cousin on my moms side.

They've set up the current dungeons to be accessible to everyone... as the Tiers rise there's going to be a difficulty curve (I'm guessing it's going to be pretty steep). Naxx and the heroics are designed as introductions to everything, they also wanted to avoid having a kara scenario where you had to farm lower kara for week after week before you could move on. So instead they made the Naxx difficulty curve pretty flat all around in order to keep you from only being able to do certain sections. Also they tried to move away from fights where you HAD to have class X in order to succeed (High King Mulgar in Gruuls for example) to provide more flexibility for raiders.

well after a marathon of 40 hours awake I fell asleep last night and slept for 14 hours missing my first class this morning.

he was FANTASTIC in a sci-fi "origional picture" (ie shot for tv on a budget you could use as toilet paper) a few years ago.

the web of shadows one had me laughing the hardest I have in a LONG LONG time.

well... I'm at 34 hours now... a bit tired... but I do know what caused the "YOU CANNOT SLEEP" biology. One of the meds I'm taking makes it so my body is chemically dependant on that thing hitting my system to knock me out. So tonight, I pop that sucker and I'm gonna be out within 10 minutes. Fortunately they put me on another med and are backing this one off.

seriously what do you think would happen if your boss saw this while you were waiting for something to happen at work? That's why I asked for the tags.

You seen bubba ho-tep? fun movie.

there's a bigger one coming that should scrape our atmosphere this go around, and astronomers will be able to use that data to figure out if it's gonna hit in another few years. and by scrape I mean knock satellites out of orbit.

well.... 29 hours and I still feel as awake as I did yesterday... that's not a good sign

Jesus... really Hades? I mean fer crying out loud. At least tag it NSFW given you look at it at work and people will think you're going after an underwear model.

couldn't sleep tonight... probably because I've started depending on a medication to knock me out like a brick. Hrm... gotta break that.

get rained on, started sleeping less now... and I need to start eating more. I usually only have like a sandwich for an entire day.

He can play most games... as to the 2k series vs EA sports lineup it's really dependent on personal preference. I think NBA 2k is a little bit better recieved by critics than NBA 0X. Madden is the only football game worth anything however. So as to sports, it mainly is personal preference and the sport you want.

hrm... I just checked my email and found that there was an "invoice" by the United Postal Service stating my package couldn't be delivered.... I never had any such package and the "invoice" they sent me was a .exe... Can you say scam? oohh looks like it'd be pretty bad if I got caught in it too http://www.hoax-slayer.com/ups-malware.shtml

Pink Panther... As good as the first one (well the first steve martin one) but I felt it was a bit detracted because Clusou didn't have that moment where he just rattled off all the information and showed he was a savant rather than a bumbling idiot.

*starts watching Puni puni poemy* wow... no wonder this was banned in america... nudity and stupidity abound. (it's from the same guy who did excel saga) For example... a news lady is giving a broadcast when all of a sudden she gets yanked off screen and says "director, the camera is still running!" and all you see is one leg moving.

EA this year went more eccentric with their lineup which is unusual for them. Instead of milking franchises (that have guaranteed sales) they went and made new games. Mirrors edge was (IMO) a pretty good game, but it suffered because of the fact that it was the first of its kind, and it's shortness. Dead Space was good but I think it was more niche than anything. I think they made up more revenue with Rock Band and Madden but it would hardly be enough to fill in all the gaps.

they've cut the amount of XP to get to 60 twice (I think by 30% both times but I'm not sure) and the amount to get to 70 once (again, 30%) you accelerate up the levels so fast you won't have enough gold to get all your skills, much less your professions up. Nonsense. Gold is insane now. I have 330 gold in the bank. I blew 100 gold two days ago on Glyphs. I had 330 gold before then. So, what did I make in two days? Selling junk you find and quest rewards is enough for your skills. Get a gathering profession and that'll be pure profit. well, my 30 Paladin (be on Bronzebeard) I had to shift money to to keep her getting her skills. now my gold may just start skyrocketing when I hit 40 but I'm trying to level jewelcrafting (but am thinking I should just leave that for 80) and mining

PVE there's raids (which generally can be pretty fun if you like learning how to manipulate the AI, and learning how to kill certain bosses), and dungeons. Blizzard is constantly updating and tweaking the dungeons to make them accessible and creating new content (content patches are 3.X.Y X goes up every time a big content patch goes out, Y moves up when they're just tweaking balance and how things work). In Burning Crusade there was 3 content patches I think... well major ones. The first one unlocked Tier 6 content for players to enter (Battle for Mount Hyjal, and Black Temple), second one gave birth to Zul'Aman, and the third one added a whole new area for daily quests, and two instances (Magisters Terrace, and Sunwell Plateau). Sunwell was a raid, magisters was a 5 person dungeon. PVP side of things you could always try arenas but usually theres a favored class each tweak patch because balance is hard to pull of and keep PVE interesting enough. there are also battlegrounds and wintergrasp. Right now the raids for Wrath are a bit of a joke, Naxx is pretty easy for raiders who've done raiding before, it's meant to introduce the ideas and concepts that you need to understand to raid. Sartharion only gets hard when you leave optional bosses alive (with all three bosses alive it's INSANELY hard however) and Malygos can be pretty tough unless you are geared with stuff from naxx 25 etc.
