I downloaded the High Definition 1080p trailer and you can see things which may or may not mean anything. The 1080p HD trailer has amazingy clarity. I saw on the fridge door that there is something written "Exit Mystery St". I did a google search on "Exit Mystery St" and found out I wasn't the only one that's picked up on this. LOL

This guy on Youtube has done an analysis of the High Definition trailer which can be seen at apple.com. What's interesting is a smoky monster? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jc5HoevulDI&NR=1

I've decided to attach some pictures of what my desk looks like at home. 1. Left, my vcr and portable dvd player (dvd player has built in tv tuner) is hooked up to my pc. my laptop is in front of the vcr. Three remotes (pc, vcr, dvd player), telephone. 2. Centre are 2 x 22" widescreen viewsonic monitors (left one has an ipod port and speakers with subwoofer hooked up to dvd player/vcr), capture card in middle of monitors. speakers behind right monitor are hooked up to pc. I can have the dvd player playing aa well as a music video on my pc playing with two sets of speakers. Turn one down and listen to the other. Or listen to both at the same time. 3. Right is my pc, in front is a mic on a stand, and on top are a broadband modem and 3.5" floppy drive Behind me sitting on some small drawers is a scanner and sitting on a credenza is a colour laser printer and colour fax. Can't be bothered to take the pics. I took these pics with my mobile phone so that's why they're crappy.

mmm, yummy. Just as bad as the Hungry-Man breakfast.

Okay, some questions. Where was there a giant worm in the trailer and when was there flying fireballs in Tremors? Also, when has there ever been a lot of hype about a Lovecraft movie? I was wondering that too Aram. I didn't see any worm monster.

After figuring out the first clue, I thought bugger this!! I've got better things to do. There must be an easier way to see these messages, and guess what? there is. Youtube has all the messages. Just search on 'ethan hass' and you'll see all the messages.

You know, for a second I was thinking you were describing christian fundamentalists.

Before I could answer any of these questions, I would have to know where the water came from, is it drinkable and are there adequate lavatory facilities available to relieve myself after drinking it.

We have similar problems in Australia with the Office of Film and Literature Classification (OFLC). There are games, books, magazines as well as over 250 movies banned in Australia. Online petitions rarely work if ever. The only way in getting around the ban is to download the game. -
^^ You're certainly right in that it's geographic, but it's also cultural. Most of my friends don't get the whole Christmas idea. It's not being scrooge or anything like that. Do you celebrate Chinese New Year? If no, then why not? Most of my friends do. It's probably because it's not relevant to you, just as Christmas isn't relevant to other people. It comes down to more than just Christmas being Christmas and everybody celebrating it whetehr relisgious or otherwise.

I read comic books. Batman, Punisher, Y The Last Man, Star Wars, Grimm's Fairy Tales, etc.

Christmas isn't religious to me in the least as I'm not a christian. It's a nice paid day off from work. If anything I find it an inconvenince. I've been invited to friends places for lunch and as most of my friends aren't anglo-saxon, they've said to me in the past like saying something, 'oh, you celebrate christmas don't you?' and I say 'no, I'm not a christian'. I have quite a few asian friends and they're buddhist. It was also good going out on Christmas day in the city (Sydney) and watch a movie, get something to eat, etc. There were always asians everywhere.

I thought it might have something to do with ego and some people will just argue to death so they can claim they're 'right'. I find it a waste of time imo.

Other things in my life have had more of an impact and changed my views on many issues, than a forum on the internet like WOT. If there has been an internet forum that has changed my views, then I would credit the old BIS and IPLY political forums.

I have no sympathy for people who intentionally break the law and get caught. -
I've never liked much of the new animation that's come out in recent years. I like to see characters in proportion. It's why I like old Disney instead of new Disney (except Pixar), old 70/80's cartoons, Miyazaki, etc.

The worse parts for me were the whole spiderman goes emo and him strutting down the street. I thought WTF??!!11?
-
I liked how they used the same guy who did the voice of Optimus Prime in the cartoon. And there were plenty of references to the original series and comics.

It doesn't cost that much at all. You might only have to pay 1.5% of your taxable income (not necessarily your full income) which is what most taxpayers pay in Australia and this can be absorbed by your tax refund. So in effect, you are never out of pocket. edit: I just checked my tax records from last year and my tax refund was $6143.56 less $1738.54 medicare levy = $4405.02. So I never actually 'paid' anything out of my bank account and I got a nice refund from the Govt. Also, most people wouldn't be paying the sort of medicare levy I pay and the medicare levy I paid was on my taxable income, not my gross income.

Some of my experiences with a socialised health care system in Australia: 1986 - Dental braces, 1988 - Contact lens left eye, 1991 - Intraocular lens implant left eye, 1997 - Retinal detachment left eye, 1999 - Left arm in cast (rollerblading accident), 2002 - Start Bullous Keratophy treatment left eye (corneal damage from an accidental intrusion of my left eye), 2004 - Finished Bullous Keratophy treatment left eye (including laser surgery) All this didn't cost me a cent and I didn't have health insurance throughout all this. This also doesn't include all the free (atleast a hundred) medical visits to doctors and hospitals over the last 25 years or so. If you see a doctor atleats 5 times a year, over 25 years, it's going to be well over a hundred. Unfortunately, the Australian system is going down the road that America has gone and the current government for the last 10 years has been dismantling Medicare to force people onto private health insurance. Many people I know including people at my current work can't afford the private health insurance. Yeah, social health care is just plain wrong. I mean, you wouldn't want people who can't afford treatment to put up with this and go blind, deaf, etc, ... or even die. I want to live in France now. :sad:

^^ I saw Transformers today as well.
