  1. I wouldn't really go that far. Ducatis are nice bikes, but they don't dominate like they used to. Also, the Monsters are basically baby Ducs, naked middleweights that contend with bikes like the SV650 and Honda 599. My 750 is carbureted and it doesn't even have dual front discs. My friend Mike (who is an animator on PNJ) once owned a Ducati 999R. Now that's a crazy bike. http://webpages.csus.edu/~jc259/4_800.jpg <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I know the 999R is a great bike, I do. But their just so damn ugly. Anyways, nice bike, I've rode around on the 620 for awhile, it's a joy. Me, I really need to trade in the old cruiser and get myself something new: Honda 600RR but then again, I've always had a soft spot for Triumph Speedmaster Tell you the truth, right before I put the bike in storage for the winter (thats right So-Cal, some of us can't ride bikes in December) I almost met the pavement at about 73 mph (I was keeping pace in the slow lane with at least 3 car lengths in front of me mind you, welcome to Chicago) when a semi in front of me lost the rubber on a tire. I didn't have a chance, but I did manage to think the word "$hit" before I hit it laying on it's side (semi tires, it turns out, kinda taller than they look when your on a bike) the bike jumped a fair bit, but I got up off the seat and onto the pegs just a tad, so it just kinda....landed and went on. Bless Honda. Funny thing, the tire managed to hit and badly bruise my right heel. Needless to say, I've had close calls here and there, but this is the first time I thought I was done. Makes you think. Don't get me wrong, not scared of crashing and dying, I'm well aware that there is a daisy yellow H2 with a soccer mom on the cell phone at the wheel out there right now with my name on it, but I hate to think what the women on this board would do if anything happened to me. It keeps me awake at night. Honest.
  2. No my friend. Grossman will be recovering from a season ending injury by the Big Game. The MVP will go to the defense. Who literally kill Payton Manning on the astro turf in Detroit. Horrible, but necessary.
  3. Chicago Bears: Super Bowl Champions MVP? Shaun Alexander. unfortunatly, if they get lucky, he will meet the buzz saw that is the Chicago Bears in the playoffs. DA BEARS!
  4. that was awesome! but whats it say about the SF universe if Ryu can't even beat Scorpion?
  5. Because Lord Poseidon, Master of the Deep, wills it as such.
  6. The vietcong wern't all guys "hiding in trees". They had plenty of "regulars" too.
  7. I'm starting to hit "the wall" with Metroid Prime 2. It just gave me a mission where I basically have to run to 8 different points in the whole game world and I really don't want to do that. Maybe it's time to speed up my purchase of fire emblem
  8. Saw Kong, thought Black was uncharteristically bad in it. It had a few cool scenes or funny jokes, but just as many scenes that didn't work or jokes that just made no one laugh. it had alot of unintentionalyl funny scenes or just "wtf?!?!" type scenes It's a C- movie.
  9. I'm playing Prime 2 right now, I'm in the "Tech" stages (forgot the name), but my GC has been running for 3 days straight because I was far from a save point and I didn't want to just turn it off but havn't gotten back to playing it yet A 360 would have long since set my house on fire
  10. Not "worried" nessasarily, but I still see it as the most realistic senerio. And, minus another great depression, there is too many outside destractions for Canada or the US to suffer too much internal strife, imo.
  11. In Irans case, not sure we needs tons of boots on the ground to get the job done, at least for awhile. I LOVE this: Widely condemned remarks by Iran's president about Israel and the Holocaust were "misunderstood" by Western governments, the country's interior minister has said.
  12. My thoughts exactly On the bright side, if you want to take a trip, cheap hotels
  13. Judge Dredd 2: Now with 30% Rob Schneider Schneider: "YOU CAN DO IT!"
  14. I actually agree with Darque on this, I think society as we know it just isnt working and we are entering a transition period (I have no great predictions as to how it will all turn out) but change is defenatly starting. A mass change? Are you guys seeing a cold war ending type of change? Because everything is always changing, obviously, but as the clash of religions go.....not that big of a change if you ask me. Grown in publicity because they hit the US, sure, but what really has changed? I think the big change coming is China growing in power (Cold War 2: Revenge of the Commies)
  15. Ha! I'm not scared. I'm part Slav myself! Phear me. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Pffff. Us pure bloods are much crazier.
  16. I appreciated that
  17. ::sings:: The circle, the circle of capitalism
  18. O, and shouldn't we make a marker for the Obsidian Offices...you know, considering the name of the thread and all. I'm much too lazy
  19. well, thanks for all the good tips while I was away for 6 hours. this is gonna suck
  20. I'm 100% from slavish descent Fear my unpredictable ways viking!
  21. If anyone missed it, this is, in fact, a parody. Just a joke.
  22. I don't like family guy. It's not very funny. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Thats funny, it said the same thing about you the other day! I was so happy when I heard about the Showtime/Arrested Dev. thingy earlier today
  23. Oh sorry didnt know there were rules. Just disregard it if it's not handhelds. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I think there is a DS game on the list already, but I'm not really "making" the rules, as I'm just trying to find out what the "rules" are myself. Let me put it this way: I'm not going to update this list all by myself, hence I don't expect to limit it to what I want
  24. are we going hand held too? bugger
  25. Quite Alt
