  - it's homicide. depending on the killer's intent, it could be murder, or it might be manslaughter -- nm - pigby Dec 27, 18:55 2
    - they always charge murder if someone dies, its up to the DA to follow through - designated zeitgeist Dec 27, 19:06
    - I agree with pixie. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Dec 27, 19:06

Trish, re: B2, I'd say go for it. Buy the GHWT disc since you don't need the instruments. -- nm - Shaun Dec 27, 17:28 8
- I'm really liking their DLC, this week it's The Eagles. In two weeks, it's Springsteen and it's going to be a free download to promote the Superbowl. - Trish Dec 27, 17:36 7
  - Overall I like GHWT much better than RB2 as a game. - JaxSean Dec 27, 18:36
  - I haven't looked into the GH dlc too much yet. As of right now, obviously I'm missing out on quantity, but no one else I know has WT. -- nm - Shaun Dec 27, 17:50 2
    - Do you have it for the Wii or for the PS3/Xbox? - Trish Dec 27, 17:57 1

  - ...Springsteen? REALLY? omg. - kelly Dec 27, 17:38 2
    - Yeah, it's Born to Run and one of his new ones, I can't remember the title. Sadly, it's GH only. - Trish Dec 27, 17:51 1
      - To your IM, they do have 2 full discs and a year's worth of dlc ahead of GHWT. I'm hoping they (GH) can pump out the dlc as faithfully as RB has. -- nm - Shaun Dec 27, 17:52

  - Get back on the corner and make me some money! -- nm - lileve Dec 27, 16:56
hmm, if only I knew when vegasstranza was - truman Dec 27, 16:40 19
- How is the date for Vegastravaganza decided, anyway? Isn't it just by collective agreement? Just pick a random date and go with it. -- nm - Mop Dec 27, 17:25 10
  - more like collective argument. -- nm - loosilu Dec 27, 18:14
  - There was a vote, and a web page set up for it -- (link) - con_carne Dec 27, 17:35 8

        ah, that would explain it. -- nm - loosilu Dec 27, 18:26
      - According to my bank statement for the free clinic and bail bondsman, that is correct -- nm - con_carne Dec 27, 17:52 1
        
        This must of happened before I got there :) -- nm - eag Dec 27, 17:53

If we're on the phone together, is it too much to ask that you stop commenting with whoever else is in the room with you? Is that too much to demand? - Hotkiss Dec 27, 16:03 12
- I agree, I dislike that as well. I can't carry two conversations at once so I usually stop one. I hope the other person does the same. -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Dec 27, 23:39
- Usually that means they want to be off the phone, but can't/won't. - Spawn Dec 27, 17:12 2
  - Spawn, you and I are old timers. Kids these days are into multitasking. - con_carne Dec 27, 17:40
  - Interesting -- nm - Hotkiss Dec 27, 17:20
- I completely agree with you. I do not mind a quick response but trying to hold two conversations is really annoying -- nm - amoxy Dec 27, 16:17
- hang on a sec - pigby Dec 27, 16:06
- I hate when that happens. Amoxy, are you staying home tonight? I mean people are so freakin rude. Pixie, what movie did you watch? Rude I tell you -- nm - Redmond Dec 27, 16:05 5

      - Trust me, if you explain about your car, she'll totally understand. - Trish Dec 27, 17:27

  - AA says 36inches of sum dimension measurements but I was wondering how lax they are with that stuff. - Hotkiss Dec 27, 15:38
- Every airline is dif. Check their website. -- nm - Spawn Dec 27, 15:22

They haven't got Madmen, Lords of Anarchy or Jekyll. -- nm - the liioulu with floods Dec 27, 14:32 6
- All three would be rated a hard "R", do you think that has anything to do with it? -- nm - Trish Dec 27, 15:20 2
  - are you nuts? Sons of Anarchy *may* be. But I don't think the others would at all. -- nm - Remlik Dec 27, 16:47 1
