I noticed he didn't answer my goatse.cx question either. Also, my question inquiring about the best syntax to use when searching for direct download warez, I found my post severely modded down.
I really don't follow you. She held these press conferences on the lawn of her home speaking into network owned microphones mounted atop a network owned podium. Aside from the clothes on her back and maybe the cost of making her lawn look nice, she really didn't spend a dime.
I see Elizabeth Smart's mother organizing rallys and press conferences all the time. This isn't about race or money, it's about effort. When was the last time Alexis Patterson's mother held a press conference? Hell, when was the last time she put down the cigarette, actually got off the steps to her apartment, stood up, and got the message out to more people?
Then again Episode 2 wasn't about Anakin's struggles with peer pressures, either. The difference is all buffy is doing is adding a pathetic twist to the already overdone poppy high school bunch television idea.
No kidding. I can completely vision how the brainstorming for this show went down:
Network Exec: "Alright, we take Melrose Place, make the girls slightly uglier, the stunts better, and we put it on a network so unbelievably bad that Chia Pet documentaries garner 30% of it's total viewing audience, and bam, instant gold..well, at least silver, probably copper. Maybe we need something else."
This may be a little off topic, but Halcyon by Orbital is such an awesome, completely beautiful song.
The word Halcyon, if you care, refers to a hallucionigen(sp?) that was used as a pain medication in dentist's offices a long time ago, but turned out to be incredibly addictive. The song is about the Hartnoll brothers dealing with their mothers addiction.
I know, off topic, but if you've ever heard the song you'd agree with me, and the word is hardly common english, so I have to get my plugs in when I can.
You dork. I'm reminded of Triumph the Dog making fun of all the dorks lining up to see Episode 2, and how Triumph just clowns them like thier's no tomorrow..
Triumph: "Alright, that was a good Darth Vader impression. But you need the loud, labored breathing. Pretend you just ran 10 feet and try it again."
Both the Doom and Metal Gear Solid series are King Midas style games, they are pure platinum. You get the majority of the original development team together, the game is going to rock, end of story.
Besides, the coolest thing about E3 was the fact that Trent Reznor was walking around, not Doom3.
They had an SNL skit a few weeks ago, where the girl that plays Martha Stewart was talking about how K-Mart was going under, and she goes "As you may be aware, I offer a clothing line through K-Mart, which you can identify by it's high quality craftsmanship, low prices, and because it's the only think in the entire store without a photo of a nascar driver on it."
That's an ok model, but if you really like to watch your tv, and I mean REALLY like to watch your tv, you should go with this baby. It comes complete with 3 prong outlet plug, molded grips for easy carrying, and a high gloss fake wood finishing.
I think it's disgusting how some people in power now are trying to get thier ideas made into laws and if someone speaks up and says "You know, I really don't like that law, it's an invasion of privacy" then the first guy goes off on a tangent, spouting bullshit like "Oh, you don't want to protect our country, you're siding with the terrorists, when's the last time you reported to bin ladin you bastard!?"...I know I'm exaggerating, but it's gotten to the point where if you challenge ANYTHING that might remotely be beneficial to American security, no matter what the cost to civil liberties, you're anti-American.
I think the EULA is just to cover their collective asses. On the other side of the spectrum, complete mod freedom, I'm reminded of Doom & Duke3D. Remember seeing those player-created mods and maps at software stores? At that point, it had quit being about the mod and had become about a profit. If I worked at Bioware, It would seriously cheese my doodle is some bastard took something I had given 3 years to make, busted out a campaign based on say, the Drizzt Do'Urden(D&D Character) backstory, and tried to get CompUSA to start selling it for 40 bucks a pop. Because at this point, it had gone beyond the mod community and become the guy making a buck. His lame little group of maps should not be next to the multiple millions lines of code project I gave my life to for years on end.
I completely agree. Somewhere out there is a 15 year old kid that could be a god at Maya or 3D Studio Max or Renderman but he obviously can't afford those programs, so he pirates them. And the thing is, and I've said it before, "A 15 year old kid with a net worth of 30 dollars that pirates a $5000 dollar software program has cost that company nothing."

Our wonder if it's really fair for them to ask for a drugtest....
Drug Lord: "You tested positive for coke."
Applicant: "Yeah, but I bought it from you."
Drug Lord: "Oh, well then, welcome aboard."
On another note, what does this remind you of?
"So one day I help some gentlemen make a few free phone calls...."

No, like I said above, Buffy is nothing more than 90210 with vampires.

Uh, yeah.

Intern Worm: "Lesbians sir. Feminine, non-political agenda lesbians."
Network Exec: "It's slightly more of an imagination stretch than vampires, but sure, what the hell."

That is all.
Indeed. I would have to guess multiple SONET connections, maybe 2 or 3 OC-3's. Dedicated.
Yeah, but it's no Brave New World.

No, this thing spanned 35 acres at an estimated construction cost of 45 million dollars, we still don't know how he did it.
Actually, I'd be a little worried about who we let in now. If it was that easy for this kid, I'm scared to see what's coming..
