I'm waiting to see a bunch of Cardinals armed with large crosses enter Ratzinger's office and say, "you are under arrest for treason!"

"Are you threatening me, Master Cardinal?"

Here are the official ranks...

Title (Posts Required)
Padawan Learner (0)
I am ready for the trials! (250)
Jedi Knight (1000)
Jedi Master (3000)
Jedi Council Member (5000)
Jedi Spirit (10000)

Some people have custom titles and those were requested special from the webmaster. I'm not sure if he's doing those anymore, though. May just have to work your way up through the official system. Not everyone from day 1 got them. Jay held a contest a couple years ago and anyone who answered correctly could have a custom title. I answered and had a custom, but decided to go back to the actual title system once I hit Jedi Spirit. I wanted the actual title more since there are only two people on this forum with that level of posts.

Get postin'!

All I know is I heard that Ratzinger is 100% against female clergy, contraception, abortion, homosexuality, and many other things that groups have been fighting for for years.

My wife, who is Catholic, sees the religion taking several steps backwards as a result of Ratzinger as the new Pope.

According to VideoETA.com, it's some 2005 movie starring Tom Selleck. I think I remember this advertised on TV. It was made-for-TV...

Stone Cold

Well, I guess that clears up some things. However, this doesn't account for GL's notorious mind changing over the years.

Couldn't tell you where to get that particular track seeing as how I don't know what the track name is. However iTunes has exclusive rights to a pre release of John Williams' "Battle of the Heroes" from the ROTS soundtrack.

Mannequin, yes, that is a spectacular bit. I couldn't stop laughing. Everyone around me wanted some of my "happy pills" after that episode.

The resolution greatly outweighs its smaller screen.

I've seen sample shots. Its resolution is great, but it's still tiny. I can't do it. Too small. That and having to invest in a whole new media... I just want games. Don't need it for music... got my iPod.

That's who he was saying. He said Condy with Giuliani as Veep. He doesn't think the Republicans will put outright support for Giuliani as prez because of his family history.

Yeah, I heard that in my marketing class a week ago. They were talking that they may now expand the security screens so that they will have to detect a pulse in addition to scanning the thumbprint.

Can't find a source, either.

Many critics I have heard say that Elijah was one of the best parts of the film. Still have yet to see it.

His grand theory, and this one may be reaching a bit, is that the next election will be the big "Minority Bonanza"... Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama vs. Condoleeza Rice and a Veep to be named later.

I still look to Gattaca as one of the most underrated scifi flicks around.

I agree. There's only so much you can do before you dilute the brand. And I think GL is running dangerously close to doing just that.

My thoughts as well. I pay attention to detail in movies and you cannot see them on such a small screen.

Yeah, but I've been seeing the Nintendo DS flying off shelves almost as quickly as they get them in stock. Happened at Target on Saturday. I think what will also save the DS is Nintendo's rep for portable gaming as well as its price.

Considering they're 100% prefab save for paint job, they'd better not be allowed in the design category.

It was funny to flip open the Best Buy sale ad yesterday and see some of the PSP disc movies listed on sale.
