So do we think the new Star Trek experience will actually be ready in time for Vegastravagaza? - con_carne Mar 11, 11:19 2
- yeah it will, but it won't be fully decorated. -- nm - Remlik Mar 11, 11:20 1
  - I'm asking because, at least here, restaurants and shopping centers never open on time -- nm - con_carne Mar 11, 11:21
Huh, I just found out I now am supposed to have HD local channels. Dish probably ought to do a better job of announcing this stuff. -- nm - Ender Mar 11, 11:19

- I've recently taken to eating all my salads sans dressing. I have no idea why. - con_carne Mar 11, 11:16 6
  - that whole trick of dipping your fork with salad stuff on it into a side container of dressing really works - Epiphany Mar 11, 11:21
  - I used to eat it dry because I was allergic to dairy and I *hated* oil and vinegar. -- nm - znufrii Mar 11, 11:17 4
    - You *were* allergic? So that means you are not allergic to it any more? - con_carne Mar 11, 11:20 3
      - I grew out of most of my childhood food allergies. - znufrii Mar 11, 11:27
      - Very. Allergies that bothered me when I was younger don't bother me now or barely do. - Cuzzin Todd Mar 11, 11:23

the previews for next week's Ultimate Gamer show said it would be a fighting game, I can't wait for shooters cuz the shooter clip they used was Halo 3 -- nm - crash davis Mar 11, 10:57 2

  - That's what my DVR guide said too. -- nm - Ender Mar 11, 10:50
Dish Network customers: Beta signups are currently open for "Sling Guide", which lets you program your DVR online. -- (link) - Ender Mar 11, 10:45 3

George Laraque on new fighting rules: "This will take the one-dimensional player out of the NHL..." -- (link) - Name Withheld By Request Mar 11, 10:39 7
- I didn't read the article but Belak said this morning that he thought fighting can stay but that the refs should break it up - J Mar 11, 10:59
- The thing that annoys me is his attitude that enforcers should exist at all. I hate them even more in soccer. - Max Mar 11, 10:54
- Ultimately, what it will result in is a lot more players like Bertuzzi - a bruiser who (before the incident) was working really hard to increase his - Beryllium Mar 11, 10:49

      - I bet you're ruthless in the stands with your catcalling. -- nm - Remlik Mar 11, 11:01 4
        
        I reserve that for Barry Bonds. - Callisto Mar 11, 11:02 3
        
        really? do tell...what were you yelling at him? -- nm - Remlik Mar 11, 11:11 2
        
        this was many years ago. In fact, I would think it was the year that McGwire and Sosa were going after the record. - Callisto Mar 11, 11:17 1
        
        (also, he tipped his cap at me). - Callisto Mar 11, 11:18

        Apparently Brashear hurt his knee as well. -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 11, 11:12 2
        
        Yeah, I'm sure that happened after the punch. He collapsed with his leg behind him. - David Mar 11, 11:15 1
        
        ya it's all over youtube with headings like "Belak TKO's Brashear" -- nm - J Mar 11, 11:20
      - I'm not sure, Belak used to be a bag of pucks but I was sorry to see him leave Toronto -- nm - J Mar 11, 10:48 2
        
        he's only vaguely aware of the existance of the net. -- nm - Reagen Mar 11, 10:49 1
        
        true but that's only one part of the team....ever team needs an enforcer and he is quickly getting that name for himself - J Mar 11, 10:50
  - is Jordan Tootoo still making time with Carrie Underwood? -- nm - Reagen Mar 11, 10:42 6
    - I like Toots from drinking with him back in Brandon during his junior days, but man is he a dirty player. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Mar 11, 10:44 3
      - I love how short he is. It's like Peter Dinklage going after Vlade Divac sometimes. -- nm - David Mar 11, 11:04
      - A supposedly dirty guy that no one would ever talk about is Steve Yzerman. - Reagen Mar 11, 10:48 1
