Hi guys- I've been off this forum for a while, and I've come back because I'm doing an across-the-board upgrade of my setup. I've purchased a Panasonic ae-8000u 3d projector, and the seller added 2 pairs of Xpand 3d glasses to the bundle. I've been looking on Amazon at the 3d glasses, and they...

We have been to DW at least 10 times in the last 17 years. The last time we went (about 2 years ago, so we're overdue!), I found this website: Walt Disney World Vacation Planner for Orlando, Florida Vacation TourGuideMiKE Without a doubt, this is the best $25 that I ever spent in preparing...

You should also make sure that the ipod volume is not up too high-- start it off low and raise it as you need to. I get distortion if the ipod's volume is too high.

Charles, I believe Christmas Present carries a Horn of Plenty, and he sprinkles "the contents" on the people he passes by. After reading through many of the reviews of the 40 versions on the website referred to above, I have to mention Muppett's version again. First, Michael Caine has a great...

Matthew, thanks for this link. Very cool. I wonder how many of these I've seen-- definitely not 40!

Johnny Angell-- sorry for the slow reply-- yes, in the book, the ghosts are "scheduled" to appear on three consecutive nights. Silver Wook-- "Ignorance and Want" also appear in the Stewart version as skinny, creepy kids.

I don't believe the Stewart version has him go back to find his fiance, but it is the only one with that guy from "The Wire" Muppets is the only one with Marley brothers-- Jacob and Robert (get it, Bob Marley?). Maybe it doesn't count for your criteria, but I find the Patrick Stewart audio...

What a great game (game 5 part deux). All baseball games should be 4 innings long. Every pitch/ at bat/ out/ hit/ run matters. And the game was over in plenty of time to riot and loot center city Philadelphia. I'll be at the parade tomorrow with my three boys. Look for us-- we'll be in red.

Buck and McCarver mentioned a few times about the batters having to get used to picking up the ball in that dome. Hopefully they will start hitting again once they are in the friendly confines of CBP. How long has it been since the Phillies had a rally?

Yeah, that's the one I meant. Hopefully he won't be behind the plate again this series.

I don't usually like to jump all over the umpires, but they have really gotten some big calls wrong. Hamels' balk/ not balk in Game 1, the widening strike zone in Game 1, the strike out/ not strike out in Game 2, Rollins hit by pitch/ not hit by pitch in Game 2. These had big impact in these...

Aaron, nicely done. What was the source for your info? The new Saturday morning cartoons were the only consolation for the startup of the new school year. ABC always seemed to have the best lineup, plus, if I'm not mistaken, they also had Schoolhouse Rock. Does anyone remember when they...

Sawzall, cutting torch, chainsaw, nail gun-- anything you can easily kill someone (including yourself) with. Must also be loud and hand-held for optimal manliness. Since the chainsaw is also the smelliest and dirtiest of these four, I guess that's my choice.

I can't say from personal experience, but I have been told (by a mechanic who does NJ reinspections) that the check engine light is an automatic fail. I really doubt that the guys at the inspection center would check any code. Maybe you could sweet-talk your way through if your emissions pass...
