Because it's going to be a cult classic and the DVDs will sell if there aren't 17 different iterations of it. Hollywood needs to get the Netflix statistics of what's being rented the most. Only then will we get more Firefly and Freaks & Geeks.
Since eBay owns Paypal, not only does eBay get a % of every transaction, they also get an additional % of any transaction through Paypal. In my opinion, they should give a discounted Seller transaction fee to any successful eBay auction paid via Paypal.
The item search should list the shipping cost and save user search preferences. I always check "Seller in US" and "USD Only". I've seen too many auctions with a $13 or greater shipping cost, many of which are scammy transactions from Korea. Also I have seen Sellers with false addresses such as "Korea, Michigan". They need to (1) take a more active hand in scanning the user data and (2) document their user scanning techniques to pass on to other employees. I used to work for a company that performed fraud checks. The main fraud checker could write a book on checking for fraud, but when his position was moved, the new fraud checker had no idea what he was doing and inherited maybe 10% of the knowledge.
You mean the old HeroQuest? That name is scrapped; it got recycled for a role-playing game that has nothing to do with the Milton Bradley (MB) board of yore. I loved Advanced HeroQuest, which also came out from Games Workshop and allowed you to add the MB HeroQuest board and accessories to it's vast Diablo-like system.
I remember if you had the screen centered over the sexy torturer woman for too long without moving the mouse, the game's narrator/alert voice would say "You know, that'll make you go blind."
Really? How'd you find that out? No, wait. I don't want to know.
Rocket Jockey had a kicking surf guitar soundtrack, Fallout sensibilities, and great gameplay (as long as you had a powerful PC) that was itching for multi-player support (originally not supported until the patch came along). As a fun sport game, it would make an amazing impact as an online console game for the NextGen machines. Think about holding a Wiimote with two hands to steer.
Think about it, Sega. You still own SegaSoft... right? You were going to give this one to the PSOne. Give it to every console and you'll have the breakout remake of the aughts!
How common is Sticker's sarcoma, though? We have a dog, and although she's not getting to fuck like a rabbit, dogs often lick each other and sometimes bite..
Excerpt on Geographical Distribution from the latter: TVT is seldom or no more detected in North and Central Europe and in North America, mainly due to the population control of stray animals, the preventive pre-breeding examination and the effective treatment of clinical cases. With a few exceptions, TVT remains endemic in the rest of the world, obviously because of the uncontrolled population of stray dogs and the inadequacies of exerting effective treatments.
Oh, I loved that game! Broke it when I got the tyrannosaurus and kicked everything's butts.
Now I have to go change my pants.
Someone in SEGA, please port "Rocket Jockey" to a console.
...and not many companies allow the use of 3rd party libraries.
Who are these companies and what can possibly be their justification for such a blanket policy.
Actually there are a number of firms that contain multitudes of red tape that disable their employees from getting anything done without the barest of tools. I have witnessed major separations of "church and state" with these larger companies. This includes the company that did not allow the developers access to the servers, resulting in a system administrator who refused to allow a Java web server more powerful than JServ because he didn't know how to properly install Apache/Tomcat/JBoss/Whatever on Linux.
More recently, it's a concern with larger companies that want "someone to blame" and "someone to call for support." These places use "Websphere" instead of "Eclipse and Tomcat" or "Oracle JDeveloper" instead of "Borland JBuilder". Wherever there is a "free" version of something that is supported by a community effort, there is a "pay" edition of that same item (usually 1-2 versions behind the curve) hosted by a company that sells support and takes the blame.
Next week, Horatio and the team are called in to investigate when a relatively unknown l33t hax0r is murdered at a hip Miami internet cafe. It turns out he was an investigative aide working for Comcast and was monitoring bandwidth usage. As Horatio interviews the cafe's owner, another patron sneaks out of the cafe and crashes his RAID while installing Debian. However, the case gets more complicated when they discover another murdered victim inside the server.

I thought you meant Urban Dead style browser games were dead. Argh, that's what I get with a kneejerk response without fully reading. Mea culpa. You can offtopic or delete my posts now.
Umm, http://www.cthulhunation.co.uk/index.php?regcode=1 0662 Cthulhu Nation would have to disagree. It's like Urban Dead except its more like a key-lock style exploration with neat effects and AJAX supplimenting the load. It's becoming a very cool scene lately. And it's got LOVECRAFTIAN CRAP going on with it! Cthulhu Ftagn!
True dat! Frontalot is the greatest. Heck, that final paragraph referring to "Frontalittle" playing D they were inspired by Frontalot. They're like his own posse that he never involves himself with. Sort of like how David Lee Roth never really involved himself with Van Halen after he left them, but only if David was never a member in the first place. That's how Frotnalot works with Frontalittle.:-)

Didn't "Star Trek" have an episode about a guy who had this condition?
;-D
No, that was Mork & Mindy.

There is such a thing as TOO MUCH INFORMATION.

This guy I know had his book debut at GenCON 2006
Mother Hydra's Mythos Rhymes.
It was a pretty novel idea, combining Cthulhu Mythos and nursery rhymes.

A Readable Technical Discussion of Stickers Sarcoma and Canine TVT - 2004 to Congress.

That would rock! Finally, the supposedly superior yet classically discarded technologies are coming back!
I SWEAR the subject line said "Rhea Perlman" when I first read it.
