Top 10 Televsion Characters
Who do you feel were lesser replacements? Col. Blake ---> Col. Potter (Potter was better IMO) I cant remember Burns but was his replacement Winchester? All the rest of the staples were there for the whole run, no? (Radar, Hot Lips, Klingar). Who was it that was Haweye's sidekick? He changed once, right?

MCA / Chris Parker Interview
Tell me more of this dastardly weapon. Is it a nipple firing machine gun or machine guns mounted behind your nipples? Either would be righteous.

What kind of future settings is Obsidian planning?
A-ha! Thats the Shadowrun I played, the Genesis version. I remember getting stuck at a vampire in some club. Years later I saw I was supposed to stun him with the camera flash or something like that.

Because he took Peters powers a few episodes ago. Also My TiVo stopped recording with a few seconds left on the show. What happened right after the Marine test subject stood up from the chair and walked toward the glass door?

Wrath of the Lich King
Thanks for some of the backstory you two. I really dont know any of it at all but this expansion has actually got me interested in looking into it. Do either of you recommend a good WoW lore site? The fight was insane and most of the time there was so much going on I would just sit back and AoE the squirming mass of baddies that would pile on Thrall. I was pretty sure it was impossible to die what with Sylvanas dropping a 10k heal on me every time I even got slightly dinged but then some 77 shaman in the group got smacked down.

Wrath of the Lich King
You know, that part you describe was weird. After Putress fell, mounted Alliance entered, said something, then someone cast a Frost Nova-like spell and the Alliance leader left. Probably explained in some lore that I just dont know.

Has anyone ever seen a UFO?
LOL, Im sure something is lost in translation here but are you saying a sonic boom made your friends mom go into labor or literally her buns flew out of the oven?

Wrath of the Lich King
Level 77 and back in the air, thank god. Even with an epic land mount, schleping all over is a pain. I also just arrived at Warsong Hold and returned the leaders sons armor and let me say, the quest that followed, wow, just wow. That was cool as hell retaking Undercity with Thrall and the gang. It was such a smooth transition into the quest for a few minutes I didnt even know I was in a sub-instance. He ports me to the gates of Org, I mount up and start entering when I see some refugee's sitting around. Thought to myself "well I haveent been here for a few days, maybe some event is going on". As I head for Thrall's chamber I notice no other human players, huh, no mail box either. I *still* didnt know anything was up untill Thrall ported me to UC to start the battle and UC was under seige! Then the ensuing battle for UC! Superb. Sometimes they really hit them out of the park.

My opinion on the words "dialogue" and "dialog".
Ah, but what about ketsup/catsup?

My opinion on the words "dialogue" and "dialog".
Ah, just wondering. He/she has the "rogue" / "rouge" thing in their signature.

Wrath of the Lich King
Ive still yet to go to Utgarde and I havent even found the Nexus. This expansion Ive really focused on clearing out a territory (getting the exploration and quest completion achievments) before I go to the next area. Usually there is a quest which "guides" you to a certain new territory like the armor you pick up at the end of the Wrathgate chain that needs to be returned to the orc father in a different territory. As for instances Ive done, did both of Azjol-Nerub (super short instances) and the troll one Thor Modok or something like that.

New Dungeon Keeper announced!!!
- trouble with disc drives
Cool, glad you found something. Im in the same boat (my CD-R just died, the door wont even open) but my PC is so old Ill probably just pick up a DVD player to install stuff until the whole system poops the bed.- What you did today
It probably wasnt rejected. Quixotical (Mistress) almost never post on her own board anymore and it has been taking MONTHS for new user accounts to get approved for posting. Try dropping her a direct email.- trouble with disc drives
I recently borrowed a portable DVD drive from work to install WotLK and it was a breeze. Plugged it into a USB port, turned it on and installed hassle free. No drivers needed or anything, it was simply recognized by Windows and as far as I know it was cheap as dirt (has a label on top that says "Mad Dog Multimedia", whoever the hell they are). And as others have stated, new DVD drives (the kind you install into your PC) are less then $50.00 but thats probably for just a player only. If you want DVD-R it may be slightly more.- Atari to revisit Baldur's Gate & NWN
There is a certain time window where you are allowed to edit your posts after you make them. After this limit (I dont know the length) the edit button will disappear. This was apparently done so people couldnt go back and edit out stuff other people have replied to or some craziness like that.- TV: Heroes
Because he's evil... again. Only problem I saw with the solar eclipse thingie was Adam. How did he survive through them across the years? I thought his encounter with Petrelli dad made clear that his regeneration was the only thing what could keep him alive. Well eclipses only last a few minutes so all he had to do was not get hurt during one.- It's "sink like a pirate" day!
The problem is that, for ships that can't outrun or outmaneuver the pirates' speedboats, there really isn't much that armed guards can do. The pirates are generally armed with RPGs-- all they have to do is get close enough, and they can threaten to put a round in the target ship's hull. A sharpshooter might be able to take out the guy with the RPG before he gets a shot off, but what ship owner is going to want to take that risk? Good point, it does potentially escalate the risk. Still though, a couple dozen sailors spraying machine gun fire in the general direction of the speedboat might give a few pirates pause. I just hate the "theres nothing we can do" approach to anything, lol. - trouble with disc drives
