heh. you said daemon. granted the plot was carried alot better in the book, but really, its a poor ending as well. i think its supposed to mean that ripley is willing to do anything, but come on...
ok, call me a lamer if you want to, but i was hardly entertained by 'the talented mr. ripley'. an hour into the movie, i stared at my watch wondering how much longer i had to endure it. the entire storyline moved along way too slowly. the only positive part of the movie was actually seeing matt damon play a bad guy. i did suceed in hating mr. ripley by the end of the movie, but more or less for matt damon's poor portrayal of the confused mr. ripley and for paltrow not taking her clothes off.
What exactly are people attempting to ping to to determine that the times are actually better/faster? Its a well-known fact that routers and terminal servers deprioritize pings to do what they do best...which is routing and transferring packets.
JPS said geeks aren't supposed to have a social life, making geek couples even more unlikely to. Very true, but there's an upside to it, more time to be naughty....
