      - get your flame equipment ready but - Elisha Cuthbert looks....not good. - Epiphany Jun 2, 11:45 13
        
        All I know is she either has perfect skin or great makeup. - JaxSean Jun 2, 11:56

        Yeah, she didn't look the same...but she looks good. -- nm - Will Hunting Jun 2, 11:47
        
        She sticks out far less than you'd expect, and the show is much better for it. - TFox Jun 2, 11:46

Google Music invitation! -- nm - nubby Jun 2, 11:29 12
- It's... okay. Be prepared for a few of your files not to upload. I had some mp4s and m4as not transfer. - TWuG Jun 2, 11:31 11
  - Initial impressions: I like Amazon's interface better (and the fact my mp3's I buy there are autoadded to my cloud), but they're very similar. - JaxSean Jun 2, 11:42 8
    - Did you prior purchases on iTunes automatically appear? -- nm - David Jun 2, 11:59 3
