While you are entitled to your opinion I for one want to know if she "bent" the rules (although it's not really bending, it's illegal plain and simple). She and McCain are supposed to be the "Mavericks" to change the way things are done in DC but this (if true) just shows it's more of the same BS and we can expect the same BS through-out their term.
It's not like Fox News is biased at all...
Face it there are looney toons on both sides and all around the world. At least Obama want's to stop some of the lunacy by being diplomatic first, unlike McCain who has indicated he'll bomb Iran first and ask questions later.
I really can see us fighting a 3 front war (Iraq, Afghanastan, and Iran) if McCain gets his way...we can't afford it (manpower or money) period.
I wish I had mod points... Everyone is so quick to blame the freeloaders and while that is definitely a part of the problem, I agree with one of the other posters to Adapt or Die.
My wife was really into Fatal Frame 2 on the PS2. I usually watched, and I have to say that is one scary game. Hard as hell to find, but a gem if you like scary.

Here here. I loved 7th Guest, frustrating puzzles but a great classic PC game. wish I could find some other puzzle or adventure games with a great horror hook these days. I tried Raven Hill - Complete POS
I thing Res. Evil 3 and 4. The first time I ran into Nemisis I nearly shat myself. And just about everything in RE4 is just nuts. Those crazy ladys with the chainsaws... some really f'd up shat...
Whoa, now I know I've been browsing Slashdot to long. Whe I first read that I though it said "detect a large goatse on the surface"
I need to lay off the caffine...
Oh well, I'll say again, the NGE changes are not for everyone, however my wife and I are enjoying it. Once you get higher in level and get better ships (or not) the dogfighting can be a challange.
If you want a challange use a melee weapon in combat (lightsaber, vibroblade, sword, etc) - it makes it a bit tougher.
If SWG goes belly up, at least I enjoyed it and that's all that can be said about a game really. After being burned by several other dog games out at least I had (having) fun.
I may be the only/.'er on here but I've taken the NGE changes in stride and have had no real problems making the change. I do agree that they've nerf'd the Crafter/Trader but I like the game and play a couple of hours a night.
My wife is also fine with the interface, but unfortunately she has an Entertainer and a Domestics Crafter which as already mentioned is another set of issues.
Being a Las Vegas resident I'll tell you; it's the locals. They play daily or at least every weekend on penny games (thinking it's cheap) that rarely hit a significant payout. In reallity they (penny slots) are one of the good money making machines for the casinos. It's definately a crazy town to live and raise a family in. But hey at least theres no snow!!! (well not very often)
This whole topic is a real drag but it's dead on.
Since I don't have any mod points I'll just reply with a Here, Here!!!
I feel really bad for my daughter who is going to have to grow up in this knee deep (hell - neck by then) $h!t.
On a brighter note, eventually these cronies will all wilt up and die (hopefully without spawning too many clones) - a hopefully more sensible generation (us) will be in charge and maybe things can get fixed.
Contrary to popular belief, there are still some rational, responsible Americans with common sense here.
As a parent (and a geek) I can't understand why some people cannot take the 5 seconds to look at what they buy their child, hell the ratings (movies or games) are there for a reason! I suppose being a geek, I have an upper hand of having some technical and common sense about this but this isn't rocket science. You don't need a slide rule to figure this crap out.
I fully agree with some other posters here that I'd much rather have my kid see T&A (which is taboo) and explain what's what, than explaining why that {crazy guy, cop, soldier, etc} is {beating, stabbing, shooting, etc} that other person (which is shown regularly on the news & regular TV).
I have to say that the moral religious right will run (if they haven't already) us right into the ground.

Hey, I've got my cat trained to play fetch and respond to my whistles. It's just like having a dog, except it doest crap anywhere and everywhere!

That was one of the oddest articles I think I've read on here. All I can say is that a lot of thought went into creating that.

Finally, an updated directors cut of "ET" the Videogame from the good old Atari days!!!
