  1. never had any problems on Blizzard Made Me Change My Name · · Score: 1

    I've never had any problems with my nick. But then I don't play WoW or the like either.
    Not that there is anything wrong with that.

    An all image site, that's real good, idiots.

  3. Re:Will it be as good as the old Spiderman cartoon on Fantastic Four Animated Series · · Score: 1

    So what happens to all those "ice roads" or whatever that Iceman has to make to slide around on? Do they just kinda melt making a big watery mess. Or as they melt do big chunks of ice fall on people and cars?

    Always wondered about that.

  4. Re:It's not a spoof of FF... on Fantastic Four Animated Series · · Score: 1

    While Venture Bros is a spoof of Johnny Quest and The Hardy Boys. The poster was refering to an episode of the Venture Bros. Where Dr. Venture went to work with another scientist, whose team was like the Fantastic Four. He had the stretch ability and his wife's skin was the only part of her that could be invisible. The one guy was always in flames if he became in contact with the air. Running around yelling Ahhhh! IT BURNS IT BURNS!!!

    Very funny.

    Go Team Venture!

  6. Re:Mac vs PC- intelligence of the user on Are Mac Users Smarter than PC Users? · · Score: 2, Funny

    My Mac is colorless, well it's gray anyway. So yes technically it is a color. Also my mouse is not round. It's oblong with 5 buttons and a scroll wheel. I guess I just don't understand your point. If I look at Apple's site I don't see and pretty colors or round mice. But if I look through TigerDirect, New Egg, Alienware or any other pc catalog, man the colors they area a nausiating.

    Oh wait, if I recall back a few years ago they did put out a line of home user based computers that did come in various colors. That must be what you are refering to.

  7. Re:wrong dir on What Was Your Worst Computer Accident? · · Score: 3, Funny

    Oh, I guess I have punched a couple keyboards when I was pissed off. I've broke about 4 keyboards that way. I've also punched a few monitors but never damaged those. Apparently a CRT is stronger than a car windshield.

    I did a rm -rf ./* while in the wrong directory. I can't say that I've ever damaged any hardware though.

    Doug: In episode 2F09, when Itchy plays Scratchy's skeleton like a xylophone, he strikes the same rib twice in succession, yet he produces two clearly different tones. I mean, what are we to believe, that this is some sort of a magic xylophone or something? Boy, I really hope somebody got fired for that blunder.
    June: Uh, well, uh...
    Homer: I'll field that one. Let me ask you a question. Why would a man whose shirt says "Genius at Work" spend all of his time watching a children's cartoon show?
    Doug: (embarrassed pause) I withdraw my question.

  16. Free matter for the blind. on Overseas Crooks Abuse TTY Phone Service · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Anyone else know about the "free matter for the blind" scam?

    I read about it several (over 15) years ago in some magazine. Basically when mailing a letter instead of a stamp you just write free matter for the blind.

    I think I may have tried it once back then to send myself a letter just to see if it worked. Can't remember if it did though.

    Look at Randy Couture, 40 years old, top light heavy weight UFC fighter. Plus he does the Eco Challenge.

    Don't know much about the tech side of it though. But sometimes you just want to get away from the tech for awhile.

    I broke the glass on my SL-5500. Sharp wants $350 to replace it. I would do it myself if I could find the replacement digitizer/glass. Anyone have a broken SL-5500 with a good digitizer they would sell, cheap?
