  - We're grown-ups now! (and I'm ignoring Mel, below, that one's hitting too close to home) -- nm - Trish Feb 26, 13:29 1
    - well I'd say you've gotten older. I've only gotten better. -- nm - Remlik Feb 26, 13:29
  - That's cause half of the board doesn't actually see movies. Still not sure how they found the HSX message board. -- nm - Jim Feb 26, 13:28

  - A middle aged woman two cubicles away from my office was like, "Do you hear that?" - Inigo Feb 26, 13:21

  - I had the same effect. ouch. -- nm - Max Feb 26, 13:08
  - 36 -- nm - Mop Feb 26, 13:05

  - What do you think of Bauer in Season 7 so far? - Roger More Feb 26, 13:21 2
    - Only having jumped into the series in season 5, I can't speak intelligently as to his overall character arc. - Dr.Vermin Feb 26, 13:29 1
      - Yeah, I think that works a lot better for me. Previously, whatever Jack did would always turn out to be right, but it's much more ambiguous now -- nm - Roger More Feb 26, 13:34
- Dean Winchester - he's always saving someone - mostly Sam. - Pippy Haremette Feb 26, 13:15 4
  - I like Dean a lot too. Especially the car and whats in the trunk. -- nm - crash davis Feb 26, 13:16 3
    - as attuned as they are to the fans, you would think we would get to see inside - 5th season a go yet?? -- nm - Pippy Haremette Feb 26, 13:21 2

- too many to list. - Beryllium Feb 26, 13:12
- Heck yeah. Seely Booth, Charlie Crews -- nm - Jim Feb 26, 13:11 4
  - Oh my, I can't believe I left off Seely Booth, I adore him. -- nm - Trish Feb 26, 13:18
  - doh, I forgot Booth as well! -- nm - crash davis Feb 26, 13:12 2
    - I think I have to throw in Desmond Hume also, brother. -- nm - Jim Feb 26, 13:13 1
      - he is okay, I like Sawyer and Jin the best out of that bunch. I want half of them to disappear. -- nm - crash davis Feb 26, 13:15

  - how could I forget Gibbs? -- nm - crash davis Feb 26, 13:05 3
    - Gibbs on a horse with a Henry rifle is one hot package. - Trish Feb 26, 13:06 2
      - also I calling shenanigans on Ray .... just because the moustache is heroically sized.... -- nm - crash davis Feb 26, 13:07 1
        
        He's just perfect in the role, plus that mustache should have its own line in the credits. -- nm - Trish Feb 26, 13:19
- Hank Hill -- nm - con_carne Feb 26, 13:02
- Magnum, Pullo -- nm - Beaker Feb 26, 13:01 1
  - heh, we had debates here - Trish liked Pullo, but I was a Vorenus guy. -- nm - crash davis Feb 26, 13:05
I have an old computer I need to upgrade that has an AGP slot for video. How do I find the best replacement card that the system can handle? -- nm - not2fast Feb 26, 12:58 4
- Check the wattage of your power supply and make sure the video card you select will work with it. This is a major source of failed video card upgrades -- nm - mrfuzzy Feb 26, 13:08
- I'd recommend this one for most bang for buck, if your mobo can handle it. -- (link) - Max Feb 26, 13:04
- Go to Newegg and filter by interface -- (link) - Max Feb 26, 13:01 1
  - thanks -- nm - not2fast Feb 26, 13:14
Wait, it's FUP instead of PFU. My fault, Max. -- nm - David Feb 26, 12:58 2

Top Chef old spoils (from the previous weeks episode) - crash davis Feb 26, 12:57 8
- I just have one burning question left from Top Chef. - Trish Feb 26, 13:01 2
  - My guess is he's the type of guy that likes the challenge. -- nm - Strongbad Feb 26, 13:02 1
    - It ain't ever gonna happen :) -- nm - Trish Feb 26, 13:20
- Spoilers - David Feb 26, 13:00 4
  - spoilers - crash davis Feb 26, 13:02 3
    - also *spoils* - Strongbad Feb 26, 13:03 2
      - I absolutely agree. -- nm - crash davis Feb 26, 13:04 1

- did you ever pull the trigger? -- nm - Reagen Feb 26, 12:57 1
  - Nope. By time January rolled around, I was convinced that TFSAs are no place for equities and the news had gotten worst. - Name Withheld By Request Feb 26, 13:02
- Wow. -- nm - Beryllium Feb 26, 12:56

    - *gives mel a pen* - Diva Feb 26, 12:58 2
      - i hope you don't mind, i hope you don't mind, that i put down in words... how wonderful life is, while you're in the world. -- nm - b! Feb 26, 13:01 1
