It's not that we "barbecue" the hot dogs and burgers. BBQing implies the use of BBQ sauce. We do cook them on grills because they just taste better. Why not cook them in such a way that you get the best possible taste? How do you cook them?

No, that's not what I mean. I mean, why make a bbq with burgers, and not with real cuts of meat.

UPS guy arrives at Jabba's palace. Knocks on the door. A mechanic eye comes out.

UPS: "I've got a delivery for mr Jabba the Hutt, from uh... Mr. Bobby Fett. Uh, Bobba Fett."

*alien language - the door opens and Jabba's assistent comes out *

UPS: "Please sign here. Thank you."

* he signs and moves a huge flying box into the palace *

Jabba: (subtitle) "Ah, yes, the carbon frozen captain Solo has arrived! Open the box!"

* They do, and inside... there's a pinball machine *

Jabba: (subtitled) "What?!"

CUTS TO A BAR, IT'S CLOSED. TWO MEN LOOK AT A FROZEN HAN SOLO OVER AN OPENED CARDBOARD BOX.

Man 1: "So uh... is this the pinball machine you ordered for the bar?"

Man 2: "Oh well... We could use it as a table or something..."

CUTS TO RANCOR PIT, THE UPS GUY IS THERE

UPS: "Hey guys! C'mon! This isn't funny! Lemme out!"

Well I've always thought that I could try changing things, but the only people with power to do it dosen't want to, and the rest of the population is OK being mindless sheep following their masters into the slaughter. So, the only thing a single person could to to improve things is to commit suicide...

Over here saturday night the price was raised about 10% in the oil refinaries, mostly because of a legalized carthel that operates in this country and raises prices whenever they want to. Since only petrol had a price change, and gasoline is composed of other elements, and the taxes were not raised and the gas price is composed of those taxes, the price for the gas at the gas stations was supposed to raise only 3 to 4 %, and only about a week or two later, when the stations got the new priced gas. Yet, on sunday, gas stations had raised their prices to 10% or more. The TV stations talked to gas stations owners, and most of them said "What can I do? The possibility of a raise has come up, and we did raise it. All the others gas stations are doing the same.", one gas station owner, when asked, merely smiled at the camera, raising his shoulders. Fucking bastards, that's why I hate cars and oil companies. We DON'T have to be their slaves, we can use other fuels and other means of transportations, but they got their claws back into the government's back like a puppet, and making us their bitches...

Which brings me to this other question: WHY does people in the US do barbecues with hot dogs and hamburgers? What's wrong with real cuts of meat?

Ah, I see, so the problem is not that meat is too expensive there - seems to be the same - but that burgers are really cheaper.

Argh, Ric. Now you have me wanting to go to Burger King and Outback.

(My apologize to Warbler for hijacking his thread, but there is only so much one can say about birds or people that warble.)

I'm curious now, how much would cost a half a pound steak at a supermarket? Over here a Big Mac costs about the same as a good half pound steak, about 2 dollars.

But the same can be said for burgers itself. Why would I eat an expensive 100 grams piece of reprocessed meat when I can eat a real piece of juicy red meat?

Now I might have mixed up Pullman with Paxton, but I don't think I did. I think I've learned how to tell one from the other.

So it looks like even Nintendo will loose the social aspect, a shame.

While we will be able to play it over the internet, we'll still have those DS reunions. Nothing beats the laughter and insanity of those DS parties... (I'll send an url with the photos of the last nintendo party later)

I remember when I first watched the teaser trailer for TPM... It was broadcasted at a local movie cable station, at the same night it debuted in the movie theaters. It was aired only once, and I waited for like, 20 minutes for it to be shown... After it ended I KNEW it was going to be great, but... I swear, I felt something funny when I saw Jar Jar inside that submarine thing, for half a second...

The first time I saw the teaser trailer for AOTC, I downloaded a leak one day after it was shown in theaters, recorded in the movie theater with a camera... That leaked fast...

The first time I saw the ROTS teaser trailer, I donwloaded a quicktime from an url at aintitcoolnews.

Yeah; I was starting to doubt my decision about getting a DS, but after Kirby's Canvas Curse and AWDS, I'm pretty sure I chose right.

And Mario Kart DS, New Super Mario Brothers, Metroid Prime Hunters, the unnamed DS Zelda, ect ect... I have high expectations for this system now...

Just PRAY that Mario Kart DS dosen't feature support for the wi-fi internet network, or else I'll kick your ass and make you eat dust at it!

I like the DS also for it's nice multiplayer support. Once every month a huge group of Nintendo fanatics get together at a place and have some sort of a "Lan party" with DS and GBAs. Every month more people attend... And in other cities there are people making similar stuff, so the videogame itself is gathering people together. Now, with the other consoles, the OPPOSITE is happening, people stay at home and play at the internet connections the new generation consolers support, like they do with the PC games. Remember when you used to gather a bunch of friends and play videogames, and have tournaments and stuff? The social part of it is fading away, EXCEPT for Nintendo, it has always made games that kept the social part of it intact - I mean, look at the Mario Party series, Mario Tennis, Super Smash Brothers, Mario Kart, Goldeneye 64 (the BEST multiplayer ever)...

Regarding the McDonalds burger: well, Warbler, is there anything you could do with a burger besides eating it?

(and if you thought "throwing it away", I hope you never have to suffer from hungriness or malnutrition or starve in your life)

Regarding the Penny Arcade comic strip: I read Penny Arcade regularly since it's early days, and it's great (although there are some jokes that only those who spend 20 hours a day reading videogame websites will understand).

Thou shall not count to four, and shall not count to two, apart for the one preceding the three. Five is right out.

If I remember correctly, 50% of the audiences for The Waterboy was composed of people who wanted to see the teaser trailer for The Phantom Menace. There were cases of the whole theater emptying after the trailer.
