Let's put up some money and buy the WHOLE rights for Star Wars. So we can release the O-OT. I can contribute with 50 dollars. Here, I'll put my 50 dollars in the basket, and if you do the same for our glorious O-OT, Jesus will bless you. Can I hear an amen for that?

* Organ music playing. Picks up money contribution basket, passes around *

C'mon everyone, donate now, for our good cause. It's the blessed O-OT. Halelujah!

As a very small kid, at 4 or 5, my great-grandmother scared me, I kinda remember she coming to speak to me, and she was very old and spoke spanish, and I remember crying and running away, behind a sofa and everyone laughing. Than, I remember I was scared of Judge Doom from "Who Framed Roger Rabbit", I remember watching it at the theater and (oh, by the way, SPOILERS) when judge doom gets skwatched and flatened I was horrified but kept looking, and when his eyes come out and he looks up with his red eyes and skeeky voice, I lost it, I just covered my eyes for the rest of the film. To this day, I blame Cristopher Lloyd and Robert Zemeckis for my insanity... I can't remember anything else that really scared me as a kid.

He is not too old. He won't be doing any stunts himself, and we wouldn't hear his voice, so he can pull it off quite well. Jaws is my favorite Bond character, and he would fit perfectly Casino Royale.

That question was addressed a couple posts above:

THX-1138: I believe the problem was that the people on the commentaries speak their minds and don't hold back negitive comments. Like the screenwriter of From Russia With Love calling Ian Fleming a "Snob", or Director Terance Young recalling Chris Blackwell's Pot Smoking habbits. The MGM commentaries are just to NICE, and hold back any real objective comments.

I see. Well, they could've added that disclaimer, "the commentaries here do not reflect MGM's opinion or view and are responsibility of the blah blah blah"

Jay is there a way to make a different CSS structure for those using IE in other to emulate the look on Firefox? I, for instance, cannot use anything other than IE on the office, for some crazy political reasons I don't really understand.

It's better than ICQ. It has a great interface with Windows or Mac, allowing file sharing or window sharing in a easy way, and is quite more stable than the clumsy ICQ. I used ICQ since it's first version on the mid 90s, but I rather use MSN now.

I was wondering about this too. I'm an MSN Messenger man myself - my username is mattfitch at hot mail and you are all welcome to join my contact list. I think it would be very cool to chat to some of you in real time.

Added you to my list.

Ahhh, I think I got one:

Inside the card:
"Happy birthday Jimmy. I can't belive this little brat has lived enough to turn five. I got this card because I thought you would like it, it has those damn robots you liked so much when we went to see that f**ed-up film a few months ago. Gladly you are only five, and too f**ing dumb to read what's written here. Hopefully this will be the last birthday card I'll have to send you.

Screw you,
Grandpa
October - 1978

PS - Note to the parents: burn this card, I don't want the little f**er to read this when he learn to read."

Ric, surly there must be a more afortable HR system. I'll give you that raise if and when you find one. I want to see the account books asap. I want every transaction accounted for. I will make sure you are not helping your self to company funds. Oh, you're on probation until further notice.

Yes, I have found a more afordable HR system for our half-dozen employees company. It's called a notebook, I have this thing called pen, and I'm writing down all the names of those who work for us, and their hire date and sallary. Until we have a hundred employees, that's gonna be just fine, then we could move to something fancier, like a spreadsheet (OpenOffice of course, so we don't spend a dime).

The account books are right over here. While I did pay the 1.3 million to a big shot corporation to sell us an HR system, they were promtply bought off by Oracle - which is buying everything that has an office - and since they are terminating their HR system since Larry dosen't want anything better than the Oracle product, we had our money back. So it's not even a problem anymore...

Can I be out of probation now? Eh? Eh?

NOT Brosnans fault, though. I belive he was an excelent Bond, he just got some bad films. I liked The World is Not Enough, had a plausible and comprehensive plot - not like the one in which the news guy wanted to rule the world, or when the north korean who had an extreme makeover tried to rule the world with a giant heat ray (although they had a similar silly plot in Diamonds Are Forever and that worked out a bit better).

I told you, there are this sick dying orfans and *shock* aaaaayyeee! Okay, okay... I just had to buy an expensive HR system because it was the easiest thing to do, besides, you didn't give me a budget limit. And I ran away because I like doing dramatic exists at meetings, that's why! You should've seen when I escaped a business meeting with a remote-controlled giant robot spider made with parts of 1970s racing cars - which is the coolest thing possible to build.
