I know far too many who do. I feel like such a sports novice compared to them. It's sad.

World Series (yeah, yeah, I know... not really the "world", right?). Yes, they are supposedly cursed. But so were the Red Sox. Before this past season, the Cubs haven't won the Series since 1908, the Red Sox since 1916, and the White Sox since 1918. Both the Cubs and BoSox were "cursed" with the Billy Goat Curse and the Curse of the Bambino, respectively. But the BoSox overturned that this past year. Now it's the Cubs turn. If the BoSox can overcome their curse, so can the Cubs.

Potentially, but I would think it would be relatively easy to tell the difference as Etch a Sketches have that herky jerky motion to the lines. Plus EaS's have a pretty solid line depth consistency that I don't think could be duplicated even by the steadiest of hands.

Maybe one day I'll pick up a widescreen copy for cheap and discreetly dispose of the full screen version when the wife isn't looking.


Okay, yeah, I can see where the problem might occur.

Mine used to be "Hired Gun" until I made it to 10K posts and requested to be put back in the normal ranking system. Hence "Jedi Spirit." And then there was that "Bantha Fodder" incident...

Actually, this was a splash page that was up for several weeks before the real site was even started. It was just an e-mail signup page if you wanted to receive more information when the site was launched. Well before the forum was started. I think Jay started the splash page in December or January.

And all that money spent on R&D for the ManglerBot. All I had to do was hire Hanson. And I could've done it for infinitely less money.
