Is it wrong that I want to see Real Steel?

Why do you care what other people think? If you want to go see it, go see it!

I recently started watching TNG

All excellent episodes. You have a few of my faves there. Some more: Q Who Tin Man already posted but Best Of Both Worlds 1 & 2 is the greatest ever Qpid Relics The Pegasus many more excellent episodes as well, too many to list. And I've got nothing against Dr. Pulaski, there...

I recently started watching TNG

I have been on a TNG kick lately as well. I always thought that I have seen every single episode but there are a select few that I have either never seen or that I have only seen maybe half of the episode. For the OP, yes, season 1 and season 2 can get really corny. I was watching "Time...

Westboro Baptist coming to my town

zinfamous beat me to it. The church is in some aspects, a scam. I think they do believe what they preach but all the family members are licensed attorneys except for Fred himself who was disbarred. They make their income off of suing people who attack/harass them at their "protests". This...

Biggest Disappointment games of all time...

Showing my age a bit here, and I'm surprised nobody mentioned it yet, but I'd say Pac-Man for Atari 2600. My buddy got it for Christmas, I didn't have a 2600, instead I had an Intellivision. So he calls me on Christmas day to come play it, I go running up the street to his house all...

2012 Superbowl Predictions

Saying this as a huge beloved patriot fan, you won't be seeing them in the Superbowl this year. They've showed poise in the pre-season games but it doesn't mean as much as people think it does. They don't have a lot of depth and injuries are really going to be an issue this season. I think they'll come...

Cars you would love to own if you were filty rich

If I was filthy rich, I wouldn't need a supercar, just something nice like this: then I'd drive it to the airport and fly my real dream ride, one of these:

Do federal employees have it good?

Worked there for 5 years, I actually kind of miss being able to walk to all those resturaunts for lunch. Crystal Mall 3 represent!

Good money for Southern MD but then you have to put up with all the SMIBs. Also unless you like living in a really rural place you won't like that area. About all they have is Wal-Mart and "cut-rate" liqour stores by the side of the road. And lots of very obnoxious rednecks (the SMIBs). As...

Do federal employees have it good?

It's about average. There was an article I read in the Post that said to get by around here you need to make about $75000 a year, that was 6 years ago. $87000 is enough to have a decent condo and a Honda around here. Absolutely the truth and it's even more than that in nice neighborhoods...

Do federal employees have it good?

As others have pointed out, only a tiny handful of people would make $367k a year as government employees. Probably less than 5 people. Most of the people who work with government around here are contractors that work for big defense contractors like Lockheed Martin or Raytheon. Some of the...

Grand Theft Auto 4

Just hail a taxi if you don't want to mess with driving/flying all over the place. Reading this thread got me back into playing Ballad of Gay Tony. It really is a gorgeous looking game engine even if it does get bogged down into some low frame rates from time to time. I'm running it on an...

q9450 worth upgrading to Sandy Bridge?

I finally put everything together this weekend. Pretty sad how much free time I have these days because I have had all the parts sitting on my desk since May. So far so good. Got Windows 7 up and running, so now I'm restoring my data to the new installation. I got the OCZ Vertex 3. I have...

Grand Theft Auto 4

I never had any huge complaints with the way that it ran on my system, although I had a quad core CPU to start with and it seems to run a lot better on quads. Not saying it was the fastest frame rate ever, but fast enough to be playable. Yes the port has flaws but I've seen it for sale on...

think there might be some Android users stealing my Internet

I got it! False alarm!! It's the set top boxes from my two TV sets. The set top boxes are manufactured by, you guessed it, Motorola. They're connected to my network via a coax connection so don't show up on ethernet or wireless. I unplugged one from the wall and bang that IP address went dead...
