I hope all the others continue with their launches too.

It would be idiotic not to after all the development dollars folks have put into it ^.^ That and the X-Prize folks are planning on holding a regular air-space show, the X-Prize Cup. Which will be the topic of my final project in my infographics class ;)

Sadly, there are not enough hours in the day to watch an entire series in a week, minus naps and bathroom breaks, let alone two or three. Unless you watched TOS. Only three seasons of TOS ^.^

Bah, that's gotta be less than 24 hours. If you want a challenge, try watching all the TOS episodes at once :P

Well, I don't know if I can speak for folks at other schools, but there are people at my school who go to freakin' London for their internships. Location usually doesn't matter much, so long as you can land one and it pays ^.^

Mayhap it is just a similar phrase that exists on Vulcan? ^.^ As we discussed in my lit class recently, there is such a thing as reading too much into things :P

Besides, Doyle was into free love, I think, definitely not Vulcan-like. Him or Wells. Or both. It's been a while since I did reports on those gentlemen.

Edit: Ahh, wait, I recall now. Wells was the free-love nut who married his cousin. Doyle believed in fairies and ghosts. Either way, not Vulcan-like at all ^.^

Hey there,

 

Have to say that's one event I'll be sure to miss. Why? Because if I ever met this person on the street, I would have to resist the urge to do something inappropriate given how degrading his films made Star Trek fans appear.

I have said it once, I will say it again:

Learn to laugh at yourselves, people :P

If anyone is interested in trying out a GMail account, I've got several invites that I can give away, so send me a PM with your current e-mail addy and I'll send one your way :lol:

i gave a warrior cookie, and now I want my Inertia Substaining Substance.

Inertia sustaning substance. The more you got, the more inertia you got LOL

I don't pretend to be an expert on this, but I believe that it's just a bot that scans the text for key words, then adds some advertising to it. I don't think human eyes ever see it, and I don't think the bot keeps records on what it scans. And if you're really paranoid, well then the message is still on their severs regardless so if a hacker or someone with similar skills was interested they could look it up anyway ^.^

I've had it for about a month now and quite enjoy it. Still haven't used even 1% of my storage space :D Haven't had such a good time with the contacts list, but like you said, it's still in beta. Anyway... Long live the gig of storage!

Aluminate glasses

Now, find me a picture of...umm...Fred.

Thank you, Nem :P That's what I was hoping someone would do if they coudln't find it LOL

Schnauzer

That is *not* a schnauzer. That is a sheep dog. This is a schnauzer.

And this is Crater Lake, the most beautiful spot I know of.

Now, find me a rubber chicken in a tuxedo!

More Al Bundy than you can shake a stick at.

A stick

Find me a picture of...ummm...a schnauzer!

::Scratches head::

Isn't Phantom of the Opera, like, a musical? Not an opera? Just set in an opera hall?

Bat Mite

On a somewhat related topic, any thoughts on this Thunderbirds movie Johnathan Frakes directed? I've never really been into the series, but do recall hearing about it over the years.

I have never seen the series, but even for someone who isn't a fan it seems wrong without the puppets :P

This has always bothered me slightly....

We judge a movie's sucess and popularity based on how much money it makes. Shrek 2 has broken the record held by Nemo which was held by I-Don't-Know. Only problem I see with this is that ticket prices and inflation constantly make those numbers rise regardless of how many people are actually watching it. I don't suppose there are any sites out there that compare the popularity of movies based on the number of tickets sold, 'cause that would be a little more...umm...accurate assessment of the popularity of a film, I think ^.^

And please, no comments about the movie industry being a business and because of that they use profits for an assessment of worth for movies, because I am both aware of that fact and am choosing as a movie-watcher to ignore it, because I care about how many butts are in those seats.

::thwaps the fish with a fish::

Anything as far as income goes helps. And McDonald's employs mostly high school and college kids. I don't think a college kid working for McDonald's is doing so for fun, but to help offset education costs.

::gives the fish the fish, because she thwapped him with it and that's gotta hurt and he likes fish::

Not to mention what that would do to the economy. You know how many kids pay for college by working in fast food?

Unless I am very much mistaken, I believe that the movie titles are *all* supposed to be bad and/or cheesy. The Star Wars series is an homage of sorts to the Saturday matinee, B-movie-type, rot-yer-brains serials and whatnot. Lucas wanted to tap into that weird, nostalgic vibe thing. So when they come up with a bad name for one of their movies, it is done so *on purpose* and therefore makes the title fitting :P

Least that's my logic.

Well, for kicks I decided to do a Google for simming, and lookie what I found on the first page. I don't think I've ever met the person who wrote this, but I've heard a few things about Joy (good, I assure you) and I thought this little "paper" was an interesting read. Something to think about at least :P
