Official thread to complain about textbooks/bookstores
Time
I always hit up Amazon and eBay to pick up books. One time I picked up a woman’s literature book that was going for 350 bux at my college book store for 28 bux on eBay. It can be a pain in the ass but its still has good deals from time to time.

Seriously isn't 350 bux for a book just asking too much? Who the hell has money for that after paying to take classes? It's a little out of control if you ask me.

I'm so glad I'm done with school.

Kick-ass horror movies
Time
The original prints of Night of the Living Dead were shot on 35mm and looked very nice. If you don't already, go out and buy the Elite Entertainment version of Night. It's the best transfer you can find of this movie to date.

As for the multiple releases of this movie, it's because the movie was released without a copyright. Someone messed up and now it's a public domain movie. You could put out your own DVD of it if you so felt the need. George A. Romero has never made a dime off of that movie.

That's the Mackey fun fact of the day.

Halloween (the holiday, not the movie)
Time
Let us not forget the great holiday of Halloween Too. This is always the first saturday after easter. It's just like Halloween but it's the first saturday after easter. Two years ago we started this because my friends and I can't get enough Halloween in our lives. So we got dressed up and went out the bars. It was fun but there was only 12 of us the first year. This year we had a group of about 50 people with us as well as people in Florida, Washington, and California who all went out to celebrate.

So remember if you don't get enough Halloween in a few weeks. Just wait six months.

A Question About Torrents

Get Nero and you should be good to go. I don't think you can do it with roxio. I'm not possitive. Here is a link to a guide on burning DVD files with Nero.

I also found this for Roxio but I have no clue as to what version you have.
