I'll go paint eggs.

I won't hold my breath.

You haven't been here long enough to be rocking the boat so hard, so soon.

Right now you're the newbie who runs into a bar full of regulars and immediately starts shouting, getting confrontational, and picking fights before you've even taken time to sit down, have a drink, and meet people.

Take it down a notch or two, man.  Please.

Pics or it didn't happen.

I'm a big Tesla fan, though I readily admit I know very little about him.  I have a couple biographies about him... mayb if I actually read them, it would help... probably not.

(Though, perhaps I can persuade you to play Assassin's Creed II if I say that there is a lot of stuff about Tesla in it)?

Edward Bernays, is my unknown man of history.

Though the real goods are about a third of the way through this video:

Not fair, he changed the post after I asked who...  :(

I posted this elsewhere, but we discontinued our Dish last year just before Christmas.  I made an HD over the air antenna, and bought a capture card and 1.5TB HDD for our desktop.  We record anything we like on local channels, and then use Hulu and Netflix to catch up on whatever else.

Saves a ton of money.

(We use a program called PlayOn to stream Hulu and YouTube and some other stuff to the ol' 360)

Wait, who?

It is odd...  A lot of people have been predicting the cost would go down... just to stay competitive with Sony, etc...  I don't really mind the $50 cost (which is usually between $30 and $35 for me too) but the cost going up to $60 sits wrong with me.

Yeah, I just saw that too.  I should have bought more last time they were $30...

 Wow, that is funny.

Here's another comparison between Avatar and (Some other Movie) claiming they are the same.

Still pretty entertaining, though:

Avatar and Aliens

This was Christmas morning for me (front and centre, the girly stuff was for my sister, and the truck and the dog for my toddler brother) in what I’m thinking must have been '85 or '86.  Man, I don’t know how I lucked out to get a Millennium Falcon AND Castle Greyskull!

I was going through old pictures and came across this and knew I had to share it here!

This one isn't self explanatory, unfortunately...  :( 

But it's a pretty good inside joke among my friends at work that have read the same strip.

Here's the setup:  Dr. Doom has wandered into Reed Richards lab and tried to destroy him.  Instead, Doom's head is turned into a big smiley face.  Reed can't even be bothered to turn and look at him... Frustrated, Doom stalks off.  Spider-Man, in his pink bathroom and bunny slippers, steps out on his porch to get the paper and sees him walking past.  He calls out to Dr. Doom, "Hey!  Kool-Aid!"  And then Dr. Doom responds:

Its use at this point should be clear.  When you put somebody, "On the list!"

And then this one, right before you know someone is going to go into an unintentionally funny rant:

And then this one after said rant has been delivered:

I think this is useful if you ever concede losing an argument, and the other person isn't contented with their win until Bucky is dead.

And, it's 1 MB!

*jealous!*

Wow, those are really cool.  It really puts my homemade Vader saber to shame.

What's the Complete 2009 mod?

Also, I sent you some more Blue Prints.  I made a TIE Fighter today:

I hope you didn't send any Star Wars crap. Have any for retro-futuristic planes, trains or automobiles?

Erm... don't check your inbox then.  Sorry I assumed that you would have a general interest in Star Wars seeing how this is OT.com.

DarkGryphon2048:

Not caring anymore about the OOT.

Oops.  I guess not.

Ooooo... 2nd season rocks.  Dang, I miss that show.

Got home with it, opened the package in the driveway, removed this disc, and threw everything else in the trash can.  Only the disc went inside the house, to be stored in a generic single-disc case.

 Were you wearing pants when you did this?  I expect not.  ;)

Boo.

But it's obvious.
