    Stallone talks Rocky 6

    On a local sports radio show here (with the guy who was involved in Sue Bird controversy if any of you know about that) Stallone was pimping Spy Kids and talked about Rocky 6, saying the story was done, and if he was a betting man, he would bet it will get made. He almost sold me on the idea...

    Movie Haiku

    This came up in the 30-words-or-less thread but apparently got lost, so I thought I would start again. Summarize/describe a movie (in a humorous fashion if you like)in a Haiku (5-7-5 syllables) Please try not to spoil without warning too. Captain Williard hunts For a rogue, U.S. Colonel...

    Your All-Star Band

    This might have been done before, and it's sort of being done in the Polls section, but I thought it would be cool if we just listed our All-Star band (for whatever type of music you are into). (Good idea Tim, to include band names) Chris Vocals: Bruce Dickinson (Iron Maiden) Guitar...

    30 Days in the Hole (and other prison experiences)

    OK, so it's more like 15, but I'm headed to the pokey, luckily on work release. I'm not too concerned...On the one hand, I got off lucky; on the other, I'm pissed I got screwed into the position I'm in. (No, a lawyer didn't F*$& me, but I had no intention of getting into the situation I ended up...

    Making friends at 25+

    Hello. As I approach my 27, it seems like it's been a long time since I made a really good friend. I've never been one to have a lot of friends, but rather a few good close ones. I had a good circle of friends in high school (only one of which still lives in the area), only made 2 good friends...

    The Michael Jackson music-only thread

    All this talk about Jackson and hardly anyone is discussing what he is famous for (other than weirdness): his music. I am wondering what music fans here think of his contributions to the world of music. I've never been a Jackson fan. I'm 26, so I was growing up during the decade of the 80's...

    "Dreamcatcher" preview on TV

    Hello. Just saw a preview for Dreamcatcher on TV. Looked pretty cool, didn't seem to reveal too much. I don't know the story, one of the few King books I haven't gotten to yet. But always good to see Morgan Freeman. From what I know of the plot, it sounds alot like It, adults reliving events...

    Hello all. Got this and never ended up using it. It's been opened, but not installed or registered. Still in the original box. I'd like $100 for it, but that's negotiable. Send me an email with questions or offers. Thanks. Chris

    Triumph and the American Idol guy

    Saw this on Conan (Comedy Central)...anyone else? Was it new? Some nuggets from Triumph: You're truly the star of American Idol. They should rename it to British Homo. You're telling people they have no talent? That's like poop telling vomit it stinks. (Thanks for the edit Tony) Oh...

    Dream Theater fans...help

    Hey, I was revisiting some older Dream Theater albums the other day, and realized that I have no idea what the spoken dialogue from Awake's "Space-Dye Vest" is from? I can't find anything on the web and thought I'd ask here, I know there are some DT fans here. Thanks in advance. Chris

    The NBA thread...anyone care?

    Other sports threads have pretty good run, but haven't seen this brought up on the forum. I haven't followed the NBA in years (other than the awesome Lakers/Kings series last year). The NBA has been on the decline lately, what are the feelings here? Chris

    Flash or other website animation...why?

    Let me set this up...we are hiring a new graphic designer. I am going through e-mails (most of which come through a 3rd party, so with no return e-mail address). These imbeciles don't include any info in the email / application, just a "Check out my website..." so when I do that to get conact...

    HELP with DVD playback

    Hey gang, my HP laptop just died on me, and I fixed it by reinstalling Windows XP. After reloading all the programs again, I found that Windows Media Player can no longer play DVDs. Anybody help me out here? It says it needs a decoder, but why should I need to buy one when I had one already...

    ESPN's Stuart Scott

    Does anyone else cringe when they turn on Sportscenter, all pumped up to watch an hour of sports scores and highlights, just to see Stuart Scott behind the desk? He has to be the worst sports desk person ever. What's with the ebonics? Does anyone actually talk like that? Does he think he's...

    Ad-free TV on 9/11/02

    I saw something on this, more or less because some company wanted to show ads on that day and was getting flack for it. Presumable because the day will be filled with memorials and other special programming. What are your thoughts an the matter? Chris

    Elizabeth Smart & Family...get of my TV

    Can I rant about this here? Why is this the top story on every news channel like every night? War, terrorism, corporate corruption, the Middle East....but no, I have to listen to her family every single day, and listen to Larry King talk to every one the family has ever known. I'm sorry your...

    Deep Throat on NBC tonight

    No, not THAT Deep Throat, pervert. There is a 2-hour special about theories and efforts to determine the Washington Post / Watergate informant. I think a group of students at some University will be featured. I kind of want this person to die already so his identity will become known. Chris

    The mystery surrounding Rennes-le-Chateau

    I hope this doesn't constitute a religious discussion..if so, my apologies. Has anyone done any reading or investigating into the supposed treasure and possible related enigma surrounding Rennes-le-Chateau, France? There are books on the subject, including "Holy Blood, Holy Grail" by Michael...

    Why is a game 3 tiebreaker called a rubber game?

    I've only heard this in baseball, which seems to have its own lexicon of phrases. Does anyone know why when a series is tied 1-1, the third and final game is called the rubber game? Chris

    Teeth Whiteners

    Is 'whiteners' a word? Anyway, anybody ever use any of the products, like those white strips by Crest {I think}? My teeth are pretty white, and I don't smoke or drink coffee, I've just been curious as it seems like a bunch of products like this have popped up lately. Happy Holidays! Chris

    Easy-to-read list of all available DVDs

    For my Christimas shopping {okay, for myself too}, I'm looking for a website or something that can list all available DVDs in a relatively easy-to-read format, as opposed to going through 100's of links. I found a site that allowed you to download a text version, which I transferred to Excel...

    Chris Jericho reading the HTF?

    This was hilarious! Not only did the show start off wonderfully with Steve Austin's repremanding Alliance members, "What...? What...?" But Y2J points out something forum members brought up last week. Don't know what I mean, search for the words "Stephanie" and "Enhanced." Or maybe you can just...

    Cover Wars on VH1

    Has anyone caught this on VH1? Where cover bands compete against each other in a few rather lame competitions. The show isn't that great, but it does give people outside of Seattle an idea of how awesome the BEATNIKS are. Maybe I'm biased, since I've been watching them for years, but I thought...
