I'd do the same thing. That's exactly why new TLD's don't really give any more elbow room. They just force businesses and individuals to register three or four versions of essentially the same thing in hopes of not losing the confused.
A built in laugh track is added, timed perfectly to accent punch lines.
So you need to follow the exact rythm of the original track in order to hit the 'laugh spots'? I can't imagine how bad it would be watching someone play 'catch up' to the video monitor if they fell behind. Comedy really should be all about finding a rythym that works in that instance, not following one that is predetermined. Timing is EVERYTHING in comedy.
Worst. Idea. Ever. If I ever see this live, I will be on the internet within minutes registering my disgust throughout the world.
Things are never too good to be true, especially in the computer world.

Hey, they need to think up clever ways to get autographs just like the rest of us.
"Could we get away with sending a Subpoena to Yogi Bera, too? I don't have a Yogi Bera yet. Can we add him to the list? How about Reggie Jackson -- I've got a ton of crap for him to sign!"
I've always just assumed that any given professional athlete is on roids. I imagine there are a handful of 'natural' athletes out there (especially in baseball), but come on. Look at the freakshow that is the NFL. What percent of NFL players DON'T use roids? 300+ pound men do not run a sub 5 second 40 yard dash naturally.
BTW - what the hell is this doing on/.? Does this mean I can submit a product review of the new garden hoe I just bought?
Yes. Microsoft Great Plains Accounting(used to be just "Great Plains Accounting") employs a good deal of programmers. Also there are the odds and ends employers -- I used to work for a life insurance company who employed around 15 programmers, for example.
I wouldn't call it a spectacular market, but there are jobs to be had.
Your point reminds me of idiots who get overly shook up over 'record highs', 'record lows', 'record snowfall'. ..
"OMG! Did you hear the Weather Channel guy? He said it's NEVER been this cold in February before! That's AMAZING!" -- like they're living a part of history.
Um, pretty sure it's been colder. And hotter. And wetter. And you name it. Just not that we're aware of.
I visit the AV Club for movie and book reviews that are less dumbed-down than your average USA Today "everything gets three stars". I don't always agree with what the AV Club has to say, of course, but I can usually at least see where they are coming from.
Hopefully they'll continue the tradition with games.
Yes, I'd LIKE to have broadband. But, after work and family time are accounted for, I'm left with maybe one hour of 'free time' a day (if that). I stare at a computer all day -- the last thing I want to do is sit back down in front of a computer again.
When I do need to sit down and find something on the net from home, it'd be very nice to have the speed, but I can't justify $50 a month for a few moments of convienence.
and now they come out with this. I knew I should have waited.

Actually, we need to put this at one end of the mall, and the guy in the Tron costume at the other, and see if the women (those who don't escape) form a sort of frenzied herd in the middle.

Cape? That, my friend, is the Satin Indigo Cloak of Ancient Wisdom, with which he will finally vanquish the parental oppressor! (in case you are wondering, it also grants +10 knight dexterity and -5 hit points from bishops)

No. Not by a long shot.
That would at least spare me the rest of the day reading this bunk.
I think I had my eyes closed on that last one.

It seems anyone the least bit concerned about DRM/sharing/etc wouldn't be using windows media anyway.
Past winners of the Mensa Select seal can be browsed by year here. Have some fun while exercising your brain.
Previous winners include Taboo and Magic-The Gathering.
Yup, and once I pass 500 I'll start using e-mail to beat hell.

A drop in the bucket, baby. I'm living to 1000!
reunion tours will that put us in for? And man, Kiss will NEVER hang it up now.
Good thing we have the wholesome, trash-free alternative known as television to distract us from this video game smut.
If you're paying money to 'share', aren't you really buying rather than sharing?
It seems like they're bastardising the concept of sharing to exploit the term's popularity.
