    Castle Crashers is an excellent game, and my girlfriend can't get enough of Tee It Up! golf.

    Paradigm PW-2200: Not Powering On

    So, it seems I have a blown fuse. The fuse says MDL 2 1/2, and is rated at 2.5A 250V. It measures exactly 32 mm (1 1/4 inches) from end to end. Anybody know where I can find one in Canada? Radio Shack does not exist in Canada anymore, anywhere else I could order some online? Thanks!

    Paradigm PW-2200: Not Powering On

    Hi Del, The front light not turning on was what first caught my attention that it might be a power issue, and not a setting in my reciever or loose cable. I haven't opened my sub, but I've seen the amp out of a 2200 before, and it's pretty busy looking with all the different components. If...

    Paradigm PW-2200: Not Powering On

    Hello, I have a Paradigm PW-2200. it is roughly 5 years old, and was bought new. It has seen no abuse, nor been pushing anywhere near it's limits in this time. It'd been working flawlessly up until yesterday. I hadn't used my HT in about 2 days, and when I went to listen to a CD, my PW-2200...

    World of Warcraft

    Wait until you start buying end game things... This week alone I've spent 500 gold on an Arcanite Reaper (procs HUGE with my Seal of Command due to very high max damage) and another 450 gold on Stronghold Gauntlets The mats on those gloves are pricy (all the Arcanite bars) and only a handful...

    World of Warcraft

    I've started doing runs of the Molten Core with my guild, talk about intense!! Managed to take down Lucifron on our first run, but after a couple wipes on Magmadar, we called it a night. Plan to start farming it on a regular basis, our major drop from Lucifer was epic druid set gloves. Here...

    Co-Workers. Do they drive you mad?

    I like the majority of my coworkers, like every other job I've had, there are always a few people who desperately try to attach themselves to any available drama, and make it their own. Then they proceed to talk about said drama as if they were a key figure in it, and usually look for sympathy...

    World of Warcraft

    I can see playing on the PvP servers being inconvientant or frustrating at times, if you solo a great deal. I never really do much without 2-3 friends with me, so while we do occasionally get attacked by groups of horde, it's usually reasonably fair. (we're all 48-52 in levels) and we have a...

    What kind of cell phone do YOU have?

    I use a LG 4600 and my girlfriend got my the hand-me-down LG 6070 I parted ways with. I recently picked upa data transfer cable off of Ebay, and use a program called BitPim with it. It allows me to go as far to actually edit the file tables, etc. It allows me to upload any picture, or music...

    What are YOU doin' for New Year's Eve?

    Getting horribly, horribly sloshed at a friends house. He's just finished his degree, and is moving to the opposite end of the country for work, all the way to BC. Friends for almost 20 years, and he's leaving on January 3rd, so it's pretty important that we have about 30-40 people over and make...

    World of Warcraft

    The organized PvP has been quite good on Illydin so far. A lot of the quests in the disputed terratories become pretty hectic, when you go out to collect some ore, and suddenly get chased back to town by 4-5 horde players trying to ruin your day. Even more fun when you reach town, everybody...

    Mario Power Tennis - Tourny Multiplayer?

    The game has been fun with 3 people in exhabition mode, but we cannot find a way to even make it two player in tourny's, it seems to be locked in single player only. Really, really dissappointed with either the oversight of leaving it out, the the method of making it multiplayer for tourny's so...

    Mario Power Tennis - Tourny Multiplayer?

    Hey, Rented this game tonight to try it with a friend. Says in the instructions that the tourny is 1-4 players, but we cannot find a way to make it more then one player. Are we missing something, or is just not available? Thanks

    I picked up WoW Sunday night, and have managed to get to level 14 so far. Unfortunately, work, classes, and the girlfriend are sapping my precious Warcraft time. Oh, to be a deadbeat shut in, that is the life for me..... :frowning: :D Playing on PvP Illyden server, Central. Our guild has...

    So I had LASIC (Pictures, 500K)

    I am getting some starbursting from small, bright lights (headlights, bring LED lights, etc) It has faded a bit since the first day, but it is still persistant. I hope it fades a bit more, and while not a huge deal for me, it IS present. No problems watching movies in low light (using a 62" rear...

    So I had LASIC (Pictures, 500K)

    I woke up this morning, some litle irritation in my left eye. Turns out, under the sticky night goggles, an eyelash had fallen into my eye during my sleep. A little redness, and knowing I couldn't touch my eye to get it out was driving me crazy, do I more or less doused my eye with half a bottle...

    Taking out the trash

    Last roommate that refused to empty a garbage can, and let it grossly overflow, and began just putting his garbage ON THE FLOOR NEXT TO A FULL CAN came home one day to an entire week's smelly spoiled garbage on his bed, spread out in quite a large pile. I later moved out, but apparently he...

    So I had LASIC (Pictures, 500K)

    From what I've read, a lot of people claim a slight loss of night vision after LASIK. I am only a little over a day out, so I cannot comment on it yet, but I am getting some minor "starbursting" from bright lights in darkness, but it's no big deal. If it fades any, they will be non-existant, and...

    So I had LASIC (Pictures, 500K)

    Oh, if only you saw the disclaimer sheets, about 25 pages long, so many horribly, horribly things that could happen. It was a risk I was prepared to take, but like every medical procedure, there are inherant risks.

    So I had LASIC (Pictures, 500K)

    $2500 for his older machine and procedure, $3500 for his newer, computer retina tracking unit (much safer, I opted for this procedure) and a customized plan done up for pilots, etc that is $5500, and guarentee's better then 20/20 vision. My procedure only guarentee's up to 20/20, but I've...

    So I had LASIC (Pictures, 500K)

    Ravi, When the cutting is done your eye is locked in place, and only the film on your eye is cut. You are restrained at the head, and your eye is in a device called a "eye speculum" (sp? Think the unit gyno's use down... there..., if you've ever had a female describe it) but for your eye...
