    - I think their first idea of just ditching the entire cast and go with new characters on season 2 would have been the better one - celedhring Nov 3, 08:57 1

So, I watched the first Flash Forward. - Spawn Nov 3, 08:32 5
- It's good till episode 3. My wife quit after the fifth -- nm - FabioParme Nov 3, 08:51

California budget: Employers now required to withhold more state taxes -- (link) - budice Nov 3, 08:28 1

- Again, hasn't Obama said he does not support marriage equality? - con_carne Nov 3, 08:25 8
  - It's... complicated. He supports "traditional marriage", is not in favor of gay marriage, is in favor of civil unions, and wants DOMA overturned. - TWuG Nov 3, 08:29 3
    - [deleted]
    - *ding* to the IM -- nm - znufrii Nov 3, 08:33

  - [deleted] 1
    - Liberals might not be motivated to go vote to help out the homosexuals (I can say "homosexual", because we are discussing a law)... - TFox Nov 3, 08:26
Have we heard the Terry Gross interview of Tracy Morgan? Awwwwkwaaaard. -- nm - Reagen Nov 3, 08:18 4
- To be fair, all interviews of Tracy Morgan are awkward. -- nm - Ender Nov 3, 08:19 1
  - this one more for its unexpected sincerity. - Reagen Nov 3, 08:26
- more info required -- nm - Beaker Nov 3, 08:19 1
  - It's a simple yes or no question :-P -- nm - con_carne Nov 3, 08:20
That XBox deal on B2 is tempting. -- nm - Inigo Nov 3, 08:15 4
- I just got an arcade last night. EB store credit all the way :) -- nm - Shaun Nov 3, 08:27
- I'm fairly certain I don't have the money right now either. But if true, it's like "here's a Roku box at the old Roku box price..." - TFox Nov 3, 08:17 2
  - If only XBox tapped into Amazon ala Roku. Even iTunes, but I think iTunes is played out. -- nm - budice Nov 3, 08:18 1
    - you can use it for netflix, but you have to buy a gold subscription for the box, at around $50 a year. -- nm - tRuMaN Nov 3, 08:40
ST knows taxes: If your job includes a perk like company housing, does that count as income you have to declare? -- nm - ceregon Nov 3, 08:15 6

I cannot open the window on the bus, because I am unwilling to force my temperature standards on others. -- nm - Beryllium (iPhone) Nov 3, 08:10
Remember, no matter who wins in the elections today, if they're from your party then it's a repudiation of the other party. If they're not then it was just a weak candidate. -- nm - Ender Nov 3, 08:07 4
- It's been a bit much with the "referendum on the Obama Administration" news analysis. - con_carne Nov 3, 08:12 1
  - The only race I can see with any sort of broader implications is NY-23 - znufrii Nov 3, 08:15

NFL Quiz answers - tRuMaN Nov 3, 07:59 8
- Ahem... -- nm - 6-1 Broncos Nov 3, 08:01 7
  - But the Broncos aren't "for real." - Cuzzin Todd Nov 3, 08:02 6
    - Well, they sure as shit weren't for real on Sunday. Ugh! -- nm - Jim Nov 3, 08:09 5
      - I hope they beat the Steelers, but they'll probably have to open up the offense to do so. - Inigo Nov 3, 08:13 1
        
        I think we have a good chance at beating the Steelers...McHoody changes the gameplan around considerably based on who he's playing. - Jim Nov 3, 08:21
