Arkham Asylum was brilliant, but why are we going to another prison? Wouldn't it be cooler to explore a section of Gotham City itself? Maybe the Wayne skyscraper or even his manor?

Thanks man. It's all stress related we think. He's been out of a job for 6 months now, and we've moved into my grandfathers place (more for convenience than financial reasons) but he's still gotta worry about my college tuition and my sister's. Not to mention my mom death, which was probably where he started going down hill a little. That is a lot of stress. Is he getting regular checkups?

I'm confused what you mean by the 70%. Prop 8 passed with 52% of the vote. While 7 million people voted for it, and I agree that is a huge number, there were also 6.4 million votes against it. That is a very large minority.

I'm sure they've already got it written up.

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100804/ap_on_..._marriage_trial Thank you Judge Walker, for protecting the individuals and minorities against the tyranny of the majority. I know we still have two more courts to go through, but this is a great start and I have a hard time believing the Supreme Court will side with religious groups over civil rights activists and fellow judges.

I sense much anger in that thread. Wow seriously, that is hard to read. I've never actually looked at the Codex forums, very interesting dialogue up in there. Now I see a bit where Volourn's anger comes from though. Everyone here is fairly cordial to the guy, but he definitely gets beat up on there. Makes me feel even worse for the guy.

Brooklyn's Finest - Not all that good, which is a shame because it has a decent group of actors. The problem was you didn't really root for any of the three cops it was about, they were all very unlikable.

I couldn't figure out how to finish off the big bosses in Space Rangers 2. I could take out a Dominator Fleet, but those things kill me in two turns. I even recruited a bunch of guys for a run at them, but nada.

That's terrible! I hope she will be alright.

I think I picked it up on sale at Target for cheaper than that.

I decided to give WoW another trial run after enjoying Starcraft. I don't know why, I guess it was just the general Blizzard feel that their games ooze. I'm actually getting into it a bit more than I have in the last few years. I had a level 58 Paladin from way back in the day. I couldn't get back into playing him, but the Death Knight role seems rather fitting. I can just pretend my Paladin has been dead for a few years and suddenly woke up as a DK. I just finished the into instance, it was decent. I'll try to give Northrend a try before my 10-day trial is up, so I can decide if a subscription is worth it.

I really enjoyed both Season 1 and 2. It isn't 90210 drama. It is a bit of Buffy/Angel, a bit of Twin Peaks, and has some great characters. Jason Stackhouse is an awesome character, too.

Jack White doesn't even need a guitar to melt your face off.

Jack White would have harnessed the poop to make a new guitar, and then he would have rocked it.

I have to disagree a bit. Starcraft 1 didn't really appeal to me at all. I think it was more popular because of the MP than the single player. But so far, SC2 has been phenomenal as a single player game. It is just a very entertaining game in a lot of aspects.

I gave into peer pressure and picked it up. It is worth it so far. I liked the tribute to The Lost Vikings especially.

As I said earlier, it is a very large country. The trick is to find an area where Indian people actually live. The Bay Area has an incredibly diverse population, so you can get pretty much any type of decent ethnic food if you know where to look. Except for pizza, for some odd reason.

So I live in the Bay Area, and apparently that isn't part of the US, because other than the school budget problems I have none of the issues you people are talking about. There are plenty of great schools in our area with great teachers. There are also a variety of different types of schools, magnets that focus on science, math, the arts, etc. There is also some pretty good Indian food. I'd like to live in the UK, but it's because they have castles and cool historical places to visit.

Why? It's hard and expensive to find a decent school and even then, no one seems to be interested in developing creativity and independent thinking in children. We also really don't like American television and the practice of creating environments that encourage segregation amongst cultures. Those seem like pretty general blanket condemnations for a very large country. Other than the American television bit, I doubt you will really find the answer to your problems in the UK.

It Might Get Loud - A fantastic collaboration project between Jimmy Page, The Edge, and Jack White. They just got together and jammed, it was awesome. The highlights are Jack White making his own electric guitar with a chunk of wood, a bottle, and a metal wire.

In the last year or two, I've noticed a big drop in Blu-ray prices. In the US they are usually only $5 more than regular DVD. There are also a lot of them that sell combo packs, which are ideal for me. Basically I've got the Blu-Ray to play at home, and the DVD which I can throw in the kids room/car/RV. It's perfect for all the Disney movies that get a lot of play time. So kinda hoping it doesn't get dropped too soon. It's a bit disturbing that Sony, who really has a lot to do with Blu-Ray being somewhat successful, is already moving on.

Yeah, I'm basically over the entire RTS genre. I've tried to get into a few titles here and there, but it doesn't appeal to me. So the only reason I like Starcraft 2 is the cut scenes, and I can see those on youtube.

It should save every time you land on a new planet or station. Unless you disabled that option.

Exactly. Right now it sounds like that person is feeling some guilt or concern over the lack of a reaction. The best way to handle that is to keep a memory of a good time that person spent with their grandmother alive and active. Maybe share it with a friend.

I love 7, I prefer it to Vista. I believe they are very similar in terms of running software though, so if you can get it to work on Vista, it should be fine on Windows 7. But you might want to do research, I'm still using Vista until my next upgrade. I've only used 7 on a work computer.
