  1. Depends on the partner. In my experience, generally the wealthy partner wants you to be more than what you are now. They want you to be 'successful' in some way and want to show you off to their wealthy friends. The partner may help you be successful which means 'work'. And when I say work, you are expected to work hard to be successful. No laying back and taking it easy, playing computer games, reading comic books or other 'kids' stuff. If you read something, it's got to be something about business. If you're surfing the internet, it's got to be something about business. etc. That's why you generally see rich people go out with other rich people.
  2. Surfing the internet is non-existant. Had three computers downloading hogging all the bandwidth and all I heard from the g/f was 'ARE YOU DOWNLOADING??? YOUR STUPIDITY IS GOING TO KILL ME!!''
  3. I have that movie lying around but haven't watched it yet. I'll have to dig it out and watch it.
  4. District 9. Great Movie Hope they make a sequel.
  5. I'm not sure how it works in the U.S. If a person in the U.S. has a car accident and are near death and unconscious, they don't have health insurance but are taken to a hospital for life saving surgery, treatment and rehabilitation. I'm guessing that person is going to have a huge bill to pay? Isn't the hospital taking financial advantage of that person as the person has no say in whether they want treatment? Faced with a million dollar bill or death, maybe that person would have preferred being dead? Or in the above scenario, does the hospital check whether the person has health insurance first and if they don't, they turn the critically injured person away?
  6. Obviously going by that graph, the U.S. is right and everybody else is wrong.
  7. I found this link to be an interesting read about Marxism explaining the Financial Crisis.
  8. Maybe nature is trying to do away with the normal human chromosome and something new is happening. Isn't that what evolution is about? Mutation and starting a new species...
  9. The next step in human evolution or Connor McLeod and the Highlander movies are really documentaries.
  10. I liked how this topic somehow segued from Unit 731 and Biological weapons development to Communism and Capitalism.
  11. Obviously, Thanos was reading too many Marvel comics and thought he was some master villian.
  12. so, has anyone seen the movie Men Behind The Sun? I don't think I have the stomach to watch it.
  13. oh btw, there is a movie about this called Men behind the Sun.
  14. I like their electronics and food. They also make good cars.
  15. Conspiracy with Val Kilmer. I think this review on IMDB summed it up perfectly. I only wished I had read this before spending the time and bandwidth on this monstrosity.
  16. G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra. I had very low expectations going into this movie but My God I think my IQ went down after seeing this.
  17. Just finished watching Season 1 of Threshold. Another good Sci-Fi show where they cancelled it mid season. Only 13 episodes and left hanging up in the air.
  18. Saw the viking vs alien movie Outlander last night. Not sure what I watched.
  19. ^^ I was the same. I watched the first three episodes of Sanctuary and thought bleah. I finally persisted (after a couple of months) and finally sat down and watched it and the season finale was excellent. I've only seen Season 1 of Torchwood and haven't been backed to see the rest of the series. Watching too many TV series at the moment.
  20. It's a shame Sarah Connor Chronicles was cancelled. Season 1 was great but Season 2 was a little weird in the middle episodes especially with Sarah going to a psychiartrist (and probably why the show suffered in the ratings) and then the Season finished on a high. They really got you in and ripped out your heart by cancelling the show leaving it up in the air like that.
  21. I just finished watching Season 1 of the TV series Sanctuary. It's only 13 episodes (bit slow in the middle episodes) but wow, what a season finale. Can't wait for Season 2. I'm now going to go watch the 8 original webisodes that Season 1 is based on.
  22. Panic Room. I'd forgotten how good David Fincher is.
  23. Yeah, apparently it's from the dvd box set.
  24. I'm going to have to put some time aside to watch this series. I'm glad at least Season 1 is finished so I can just watch it from start to finish. I watch too many tv series already.
