- The last segment was quite good, but the first 45 minutes were too somber a tone for me -- nm - peglegpete Feb 27, 20:38
- I won't watch it until tomorrow. -- nm - nubby Feb 27, 20:37

- well, well well, look at mara's hard drive . . . -- nm - alpine misanthrope Feb 27, 19:40
- i'm not getting anything with that link -- nm - Stephen Feb 27, 19:32 3
  - Wow, I'm an idiot. I saved the page as a file, saw it in my bookmarks, Explorer opened it -- but I didn't notice the URL. Sorry, all -- nm - mara Feb 27, 19:34 2
    - And might I add ... - ReluctantCynic Feb 27, 20:14 1

Mel, if you haven't yet done so, you should also check out KingsAge.org. - ReluctantCynic Feb 27, 19:19 5

STIS: Cable hook up question. I have a TiVo. I now have an HD Cable box. If I use a cable splitter... - JaxSean Feb 27, 19:18 3
- "CABLE >> CABLEBOX >> TIVO >> TV " I think is correct. -- nm - lileve Feb 27, 19:27 2
  - but the tivo is standard. I won't get anything out of it other than standard cable, so in that instance, I should just skip the box. -- nm - JaxSean Feb 27, 19:30 1
    - Oh. The tivo has it's own cable tuner? I know nothing about Tivo, I'm sorry. -- nm - lileve Feb 27, 19:36
what's david doing here anyway. shouldn't he be at the Jonas Brothers movie? -- nm - alpine misanthrope Feb 27, 19:07

30 Rock easter egg in this episode - alpine misanthrope Feb 27, 18:54
Someone name a planet that is prominent in the Star Trek cannon. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Feb 27, 18:54 40
- (Cannon?) -- nm - nubby Feb 27, 20:30 4
  - See, there is official Star Trek cannon -- from the TV series and movies -- and then there is all the attendant fiction that is not cannon. - ReluctantCynic Feb 27, 20:44 3
    - So at what point in the future does the word pick up an extra 'n'? -- nm - nubby Feb 27, 20:46 2
      - On Stardate 41986.0. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Feb 27, 20:52
      - June 5th, 2122 -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Feb 27, 20:50
- Risa. -- (link) - Mel Profit Feb 27, 19:06
- What's the one where Odo's people were from? -- nm - David Feb 27, 19:01 2
  - Some rogue planet in a nebula, IIRC. It wasn't the normal sort of world -- it just drifted around in a nebula somehow. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Feb 27, 19:05
  - you know I don't know. -- nm - Remlik Feb 27, 19:03
- Talos IV -- nm - peglegpete Feb 27, 18:58
- Kronos. -- nm - Beryllium Feb 27, 18:57 4

    - no it's the Klingon Homeworld. -- nm - Remlik Feb 27, 19:04 1
      - correct spelling: Qo'noS. Oops. -- nm - Beryllium Feb 27, 19:04
    - Really? I thought it was the planet, too. -- nm - mara Feb 27, 18:57
- Earth, Andor, Wrigley's Pleasure Planet, Sherman's Planet. Bajor, Cardassia, Praxis. -- nm - Remlik Feb 27, 18:56 3
  - oh look, this one's set to "dork" - alpine misanthrope Feb 27, 18:58 1
    - ok yeah. -- nm - Remlik Feb 27, 19:20
  - And I'll make Andor, Bajor, and Cardassia my next planets. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Feb 27, 18:58
- Vulcan, Romulus. -- nm - mara Feb 27, 18:55
- Vulcan -- nm - alpine misanthrope Feb 27, 18:55 19
  - Excellent. Thank you. Both you and mara have named my next cities in Ikariam. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Feb 27, 18:57 18
    - wait...you play? - Mel Profit Feb 27, 19:08 13
      - Yep. - ReluctantCynic Feb 27, 19:19 12
        
        I was wondering which server you guys were on when I saw this posted about a few weeks ago. - Stephen Feb 27, 19:20 11
        
        If you hit Delta a few of us are on. - Mel Profit Feb 27, 19:22 10
        
        what's the time commitment on this thing? -- nm - Reagen Feb 27, 20:06
        
        Maybe I'll just shift over to Delta, then. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Feb 27, 19:27 7
        
        Come on over. - Mel Profit Feb 27, 19:29 6
        
        I am in now also...What do I do now? -- nm - amoxy Feb 27, 19:35 5
        
        are you on Delta? - Mel Profit Feb 27, 19:35 4
        
        yes, amoxy -- nm - amoxy Feb 27, 19:37 3
        
        strange, I couldn't find you under the High Score list. - Mel Profit Feb 27, 19:42 2
        
        I can't find you under "Mel Profit." What's your current ranking on the high score list? -- nm - ReluctantCynic Feb 27, 20:15 1
        
        #781 - Mel Profit Feb 27, 20:21
        
        Cool! -- nm - Stephen Feb 27, 19:23
    - Seti Alpha FIVE?! -- nm - alpine misanthrope Feb 27, 18:59 3
      - That is the name of my very first city. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Feb 27, 19:02 2
        
        but is it the real Seti Alpha Five or did you think it was actually Seti Alpha Six when you built it? -- nm - alpine misanthrope Feb 27, 19:08 1
        
        I thought it was Ceti Alpha Six! -- nm - ReluctantCynic Feb 27, 19:21
back for some halo, if Spock and Mr. Syndrome want some ... -- nm - Beryllium Feb 27, 18:46 5
- Who is Mr. Syndrome? -- nm - David Feb 27, 18:46 4
  - that viral guy -- nm - Beryllium Feb 27, 18:47 3
    - THAT is the best nickname you can come up with? - David Feb 27, 18:48 2
      - I figured you wouldn't understand "Lane 2". Then again, you've probably been to more shooting ranges than me. -- nm - Beryllium Feb 27, 18:56 1
        
        Make. More. Sense. -- nm - David Feb 27, 19:00
Hey Spock... - David Feb 27, 18:41 1
- I did, but she was kind of a passing fancy. -- nm - Reagen Feb 27, 20:05
Decide My Movie: Sangre de Mi Sangre; Far From Heaven; or Kingdom of Heaven (director's cut)? -- nm - ReluctantCynic Feb 27, 18:38 2
- Kingdom of Heaven\ -- nm - Stephen Feb 27, 18:40 1
  - Okay - you win. And I'll even give you the fortune from my extra fortune cookie as a bonus. - ReluctantCynic Feb 27, 18:51
I'm not sure why people are writing Jindal's political obituary already. Didn't Clinton give a deadly speech 4 years before coming president? - Dano Feb 27, 18:38 14
- Obituary is a strong word but getting caught lying about his presence in a crisis situation is a big anchor. -- nm - David Feb 27, 18:46 7
  - I think the story fabrication is going to weight him down a lot more than the poor speech -- nm - amoxy Feb 27, 18:51 6
    - agreed. -- nm - Mel Profit Feb 27, 19:07
    - I still can't get over his ridicule of funding for volcano studies. I'm sure there may have been more to it, but it didn't come through in his speech -- nm - MojaveMeg Feb 27, 18:58 4
      - We should make him live for 6 months or so about halfway up Mt. St. Helens. It spews and shakes enough that he'd have the shit scared out of him. -- nm - Trish Feb 27, 20:48
      - I bet if he had monitors that warned him when levees would break he wouldn't be mocking them -- nm - amoxy Feb 27, 19:01 1
        
        That was my thought. Wonder if he's ever been west of the Rockies? -- nm - MojaveMeg Feb 27, 19:06
      - and those weird "levitating trains." everyone knows you can't levitate a train, dummy! -- nm - alpine misanthrope Feb 27, 18:59
- Things are a little different now, with the internet kind of magnifying everything, but I agree it's too early for an obituary. -- nm - mara Feb 27, 18:41
- yep very true. -- nm - Remlik Feb 27, 18:41
- This is America. - Cuzzin Todd Feb 27, 18:40 1
  - and we can do ANYthing. -- nm - Remlik Feb 27, 18:47
- IIRC, his speech at the 1988 Democratic National Convention was utterly horrible. - ReluctantCynic Feb 27, 18:39
- I'm not, I'm just laughing at him. -- nm - Reagen Feb 27, 18:39
"The Index Funds Win Again" -- (link) - lileve Feb 27, 18:25
Jeebus ... I just read the rest of B2. Sorry, Sceire. :-( -- nm - ReluctantCynic Feb 27, 18:25 2
- Thanks everyone. I have to say i'm not all that upset about it, other than the obvious money crunch it puts us under. - Stephen Feb 27, 19:00
- Ouch is right, sorry Stephen -- nm - amoxy Feb 27, 18:53
watching Smackdown's 'wrestlemania memories' moment, or whatever they call it, Hogan must have owned the heavyweight title in the 80s... - i'm not dead yet ! Feb 27, 18:24 4
- he was champ from 84 to 88 for his 1st run. He then lost his 2nd title to Warrior in 1990 -- (link) - Remlik Feb 27, 18:31 1
  - ok, t'anks.... thought for some reason it was earlier, like 87 or 88 -- nm - i'm not dead yet ! Feb 27, 18:33
- Hogan was the WWF in the 80s, yes. -- nm - alpine misanthrope Feb 27, 18:26 1
  - well, yes, that's an Understood.... -- nm - i'm not dead yet ! Feb 27, 18:32
Art Adams is now Marvel Exclusive, Greg Capullo returns to Spawn, -- nm - Remlik Feb 27, 18:23
lir MojaveMom - if you keep losing money at reset I'm gonna pass you! - CrankYanker Feb 27, 18:22 3
- someone is less than 2m behind me and is gonna pass me this weekend :( -- nm - peglegpete Feb 27, 18:28 2
  - AB and DiscoStu are dropping quite rapidly. We should both pass them before long. -- nm - MojaveMeg Feb 27, 18:31 1
    - CT & I must be playing similar games. he has been 30m ahead of me for months, with nary a change :) -- nm - peglegpete Feb 27, 18:34
I just berymandered ... in *German*! -- nm - ReluctantCynic Feb 27, 18:15
