Once upon a time, in a nice little forest, there lived an orphaned bunny and an orphaned snake. By a surprising coincidence, both were blind from birth.

One day, the bunny was hopping through the forest, and the snake was slithering through the forest, when the bunny tripped over the snake and fell down. This, of course, knocked the snake about quite a bit.

"Oh, my," said the bunny, "I'm terribly sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you. I've been blind since birth, so, I can't see where I'm going. In fact, since I'm also an orphan, I don't even know what I am."

It's quite ok," replied the snake. "Actually, my story is as yours. I too have been blind since birth, and also never knew my mother. Tell you what, maybe I could slither all over you, and work out what you are so at least you'll have that going for you."

"Oh, that would be wonderful" replied the bunny. So the snake slithered all over the bunny, and said, "Well, you're covered with soft fur, you have really long ears, your nose twitches, and you have a soft cottony tail. I'd say that you must be a bunny rabbit."

"Oh, thank you, thank you," cried the bunny, in obvious excitement. The bunny suggested to the snake, "Maybe I could feel you all over with my paw, and help you the same way that you've helped me."

So the bunny felt the snake all over, and remarked, "Well, you're smooth and slippery, and you have a forked tongue, no backbone and no balls..... I'd say you must either be a team leader, supervisor or possibly someone in senior management."

Buring AVI's to DVD - Sync issues!!!

hmmnn.. can only recommend watching the thing all the way through (or rather leaving it on play and returning every 15mins to see if the synch probs are on the downloaded file itself).

Other than that m8 - try www.dvdrhelp.com or the doom9.org forums - sorry m8.


When I used to have similar probs I updated everything - the standlone dvd player firmware, my dvdwriter frimware, the divx player codecs and updates, and let it connect to the internet everytime it wanted to (firewalls can be a bit picky with media players etc)


Cool pic sig btw

ok - so the Chuck Norris jokes were alright, but these are a LOT better...


23. That's the number of people Mr. T has pitied in the time it has taken you to read this sentence.

Mr. T doesn't obey the second law of thermodynamics. It obeys him.

Before Mr. T, the alphabet only had 25 letters.

Mr. T is allergic to doorknobs. That's why he can only kick through doors.

Mr. T's hair style is actually a complex array of antennas that can triangulate the exact location of any fool in the universe. His gold chains can then transmit pity to those coordinates.

The last time Mr. T went to McDonald's, Ronald McDonald greeted him. What occured next proved to be the most violent beating of a clown ever recorded in human history.

Mr. T was fired from the Psychic Friends Network for always predicting pain.

Despite popular belief, if there is a fool in the woods, and nobody is around to hear his jibba jabba, Mr. T is still able to pity him.

When the end of the world comes, it won't be referred to as "Judgment Day".
Rather, it shall be called "T-Day", when Mr. T ends the world by simultaneously pitying all six billion fools on this planet to death.

Mr. T made his van go twice the speed of light because he wanted to prove that quantum physics was a bunch of jibba jabba.

Originally the A-Team was named T-Team and consisted of Mr. T and six of his genetically engineered clones driving around in a van made of pure gold. Producers changed the format after every criminal known to man was killed in the pilot episode.

Mr. T rejoiced as President George W. Bush was elected to office, as the coming administration would assure that he would never run out of fools to pity.

When Mr. T cuts onions, it's the onions doing the crying.

The Manhattan Project really did not create the atom bomb, but instead put the pity Mr. T distributes, in a bottle and then dropped it on Japan.

When Dr. Bruce Banner gets angry, he turns into the Hulk. When the Hulk gets angry, he turns into Mr. T.

Mr. T took Mother Nature from behind. We refer to the event as the Big Bang.

If you were ever foolish enough to get into a fight with Mr. T, there would only be two hits: Mr. T hitting you, and you hitting the surface of the Sun.

Osama Bin Laden isn't hiding from the US, he's hiding from Mr. T

Mr. T invented cryogenics for the sole purpose of turning fools into Pity Pops, which he then sells to buy more gold chains.

Mr T defines love as the reluctance to murder. If you're still alive, it's because Mr T loves you.

Is the problem with sound sync on your disc being played on a standalone dvd player, or your pc's dvd player?

I'm not very technically minded but is it possible to upgrade the firmware in your standalone dvd player?

As your pc's divx player (or other media player) downloads updates/codecs to play files, the divx part of your standalone dvd player may not be up to date as your pc's - and therefore struggles to play them?

^ I know what you mean (I think )

Have downloaded and watched the first 10 episodes of season 2 and watched them back-to-back (pretty much anyways) - just could not contain the excitement and anticipation of the next episode, and then the next one, and then the next...!

However, have to say I've taken a lot more in just watching 1 or 2 episodes a week at the second time of viewing - I often find I've missed subtle plotlines and think about the decisions and consequences of the story a bit more.


Gotta love the torrents - come Saturday morning the dling will start and by the evening it'll be ready
10 episodes on one dvdr disc - all decent quality (divx) = sweetness

A lad has just copped off with some bird after a night out and takes her back to his new flat, as he showing here round he takes her to his bedroom and shows her his big brass gong...

'whats that' the girl asks
'its me new talking clock' says the man
'talking clock? how does that work?'

And with that the man grabs a sledgehammer and twats this big brass bong as hard as he could
'listen'

then a few seconds later he hears a cry from next door
'its quarter past 3 in the fuckin morning!'









Brian came home from the pub late one Friday evening, as he often did, and crept into bed beside his wife who was already asleep. He gave a peck on the cheek and fell asleep. When he awoke he found a strange man standing at the end of his bed wearing a long flowing white robe.

"Who the hell are you?" demanded Brian, "and what are you doing in my bedroom?"
The mysterious man answered "This isn't your bedroom and I'm St Peter".
Brian was stunned "You mean I'm dead!!! That can't be, I have so much too live for, I haven't said goodbye to my family.... you've got to send me back straight away".
St Peter replied "Yes you can be reincarnated but there is a catch. We can only send you back as a dog or a hen."

Brian was devastated, but knowing there was a farm not far from his house, he asked to be sent back as a hen. A flash of light later he was covered in feathers and clucking around pecking the ground. "This ain't so bad" he thought until he felt this strange feeling welling up inside him.
The farmyard rooster strolled over and said "So you're the new hen, how are you enjoying your first day here?"
‘It's not so bad" replies Brian, "but I have this strange feeling inside like I'm about to explode".
"You're ovulating" explained the rooster, "don't tell me you've never laid an egg before".
"Never" replies Brian
"Well just relax and let it happen"

And so he did and after a few uncomfortable seconds later, an egg pops out from under his tail. An immense feeling of relief swept over him and his emotions got the better of him as he experienced motherhood for the first time. When he laid his second egg, the feeling of happiness was overwhelming and he knew that being reincarnated as a hen was the best thing that ever happened to him ... ever!!!

The joy kept coming and as he was just about to lay his third egg he felt an enormous smack on the back of his head and heard his wife shouting "Brian, wake up you bastard, you're shitting in the bed"

Ron Moore sets up the story so well for the end of season 2.0 - leaving us with feeling so much anticpation of what is to come - and then surprises us further with even higher quality storytelling in the 1st returning episode - leaving us wanting more...

Few things on tv I actually look forward to watching, but BSG is truly must-see tv
