    - oh right. I didn't look at the suits. - Reagen Dec 13, 10:13

I just stumbled upon a website that recommends that you put Borax in your kitty litter. That can't be safe for the cat. - krusty Dec 13, 08:38 9
- we use Kitty Litter Scoop. works great. I would recommend scooping at least once a day (I do it before I go to bed), also a 1-1 ratio of cats-boxes -- nm - Beaker Dec 13, 09:16 1
  - I don't have any issues, I use Feline Pine. I clean it daily and never have an odor issue. - krusty Dec 13, 09:26
- it's not particularly toxic, but I still wouldn't do it. (I've randomly been to a borate mine, they taught us all about it). -- nm - mafic Dec 13, 08:40 4

        Kevin? -- nm - Rorschach: 03/06/09 Dec 13, 10:57
- Oh, the Borax is supposed to help with the odor. -- nm - krusty Dec 13, 08:39 1

sad. sony's flagship ps3 game, little big planet (which really is great, i bought one) sold a puny 140,000 copies in november.....nm - x Dec 13, 07:29 14
- Other then this not being true, and Little Big Planet being nowhere close to Sony's "flagship ps3 game" - Stewie Dec 13, 07:39 6
  - yeah, you're probably right. you need a flagship to have a flagship game.... - x Dec 13, 09:17 5
    - also, i got the 140k number from leigh alexander from gamasutra, so if there's a problem with the number then its hers.... - x Dec 13, 09:22 4
      - Oh so you were just misinformed....again - Stewie Dec 13, 09:43 3
        
        i'm just saying that i'm citing numbers given by a games journalist who was in the process of reporting on the npd numbers that she gets because... - x Dec 13, 10:09 2
        
        oh, and just for good measure since you're essentially calling me a liar and saying i created this "bogus number".... - x Dec 13, 10:17 1
        
        The 141,000 number for November is correct. I've seen it on mutliple legitmate gaming sites. - Inigo Dec 13, 11:07
- The game does look really cool, but I don't think it appeals to the PS3's main demographic (this is a guess). -- nm - Shaun Dec 13, 07:30 6
  - i think the real problem is that there *is* no ps3 demographic! - x Dec 13, 07:34 5
    - FPS games sell very, very well. When Call of Duty 4 sells 2+ million copies in a month you can bet they'll be many more like it to follow. -- nm - krusty Dec 13, 08:41 3
      - Of course at one point, Doom and the first such FPS games could've been called "innovative." - Cuzzin the Red Nosed Todd Dec 13, 09:42
      - There are very few non sequels that sell well right away, the real number for LBP is 1.1 mil sold in 6 weeks, half that in the U.S. - Stewie Dec 13, 09:02 1
        
        very good point. -- nm - krusty Dec 13, 09:39
    - If it was a Wii game, it would have sold 5x more copies, which is unfortunate, but whatever. -- nm - Shaun Dec 13, 07:36
I'm watching TDK for the 2nd time already since getting the dvd Tuesday. -- nm - Shaun Dec 13, 07:25
Kinda nervous about my interview with Frank Miller today... - secretslacker Dec 13, 07:20 2
- hmmm....ask about how Naked City and other Noir films informed his moviemaking process. -- nm - Remlik Dec 13, 08:22
- Stick to Batman questions. When are we getting the next issue and when are we getting a DKR movie. -- nm - Spawn Dec 13, 07:40
I feel like Dano.... I'm at work at 10am on a Saturday *AND* i'm listening to the Mamma Mia! soundtrack. - El Fandie Dec 13, 07:14 8

  - already? excellent! -- nm - El Fandie Dec 13, 07:17 6
    - They attempted delivery yesterday, I picked up at the postee today! -- nm - Spawn Dec 13, 07:20
    - also, the Meryl Streep version of Mamma Mia is surprisingly great. -- nm - El Fandie Dec 13, 07:18 4
      - ::does not compute:: - Spawn Dec 13, 07:22
      - Grrr... you know that every time you post those two words, that song gets stuck in everyone's head, right? -- nm - secretslacker Dec 13, 07:21 2
        
        Here I go again. My, my, how can I resist ya? -- nm - mara Dec 13, 07:29 1
        
        Yes, I've been brokenhearted, blue since the day we parted. Why, why, did I ever let you go? - Trish Dec 13, 08:22

Puppy Cam is going to be the most watched video on the internet by the end of the day today -- nm - secretslacker Dec 13, 05:22
In case you missed it... this week is all shorts... some big ones, too -- nm - secretslacker Dec 13, 05:21 1
- Considering I only know one of them (and it looked like crap), that does not surprise me. - Spawn Dec 13, 07:13
Subby, I'm sorry to hear about your grandmother. -- nm - kelly Dec 13, 05:18 1

- THey better not, that might lead to an invasion...and the alien invaders would be justified in the attack -- nm - The Calico Cat Coalition Dec 13, 06:19 1
  - And then they'd make a movie about it, and the cycle starts anew -- nm - secretslacker Dec 13, 07:19

  - Ummmm, we had Mazzone for god's sake. He's just a stubborn mule. - Will Hunting Dec 13, 07:52 1
    - I know. And the current guy is also highly regarded. -- nm - the wrong element, bad guy Dec 13, 08:39
- I'm sorry, but Rotoworld's on crack. Cabrera's regressed each of the last 3 years and frankly, innings eating doesn't mean much when they come with - kelly Dec 13, 05:43 7
  - I love how this year was supposed to be his breakout year because he mixed in another pitch. - Mel Profit Dec 13, 06:56 4
    - Except he never threw that pitch. - the wrong element, bad guy Dec 13, 07:42 2
      - Yeah, I fully expect him to win 20 games in the next 2-3 years, I just hope it will be in the National League. - Will Hunting Dec 13, 07:50 1
        
        I expect him to struggle to hit double digit wins. - the wrong element, bad guy Dec 13, 08:43
    - uh-huh...sometimes. : ) -- nm - Diva Dec 13, 07:39
  - Nick Change. -- nm - Will Hunting Dec 13, 05:43 1

- Jungle Jim's is the best damn grocery store - Curmudgeonx Dec 13, 10:51
- Nowhere if the check i'm waiting for doesn't come today. - krusty Dec 13, 08:29
- Groceries and a brown sweater (Fashion Bug?) I need to go to the P.O. and Costco, but think Saturday is probably not a good time... - NutMeg Dec 13, 08:12
- I am going nowhere (other than maybe to the store to pick up cheese and diet pepsi). - Callisto Dec 13, 08:08 1
  - Mmmm, cheese. -- nm - mara Dec 13, 08:48
