They usually are the guys who bring grandma in with them for the audition.

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Jan 17, 2006 -> 08:54 PM) It's amazing how many idiots go audition for their 10 seconds of fame. Earlier guy dressed up like the statue of liberty with the torch and all and sang badly. LOL They should make a video of the first few shows of open tryouts onto one DVD. The rest of the show isnt worth it.

Okay, they just gave a teaser of a beared skinny man in a dutch farm girls dress with a pipi longstocking haircut. And a fat guy who had a tounge ring that made him slur when he sung. LOL

Dude talks to the animals, wears no shoes, and his eyes flutters like he is under some sort of evil trance, then had some sort of fit yelling WOOO WOOO. Dave the insane nut, gets to Hollywood just to annoy Simon.

The Ukranian chick doing Bohemian Rapsody. I can actually see Wayne and Garth when she sings. If she really needs a performance VISA to stay in the country. I think she can find a job at certain dance clubs. Now dancing on the backstage Elecktra, on front stage from the former Soviet Union, Slutvana

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Jan 17, 2006 -> 08:33 PM) How about Crystal's mother? Broad was wearing clothing for someone half her age. Her tits were sagging halfway down her belly. I love these auditions. Hate the show beyond this point. I only watch the first few shows, because this crap is funny. Simon asking Crystal, so do you go tanning? Crystal of course is a fine orange color, and she patterns herself after Paris Hilton. Sadly though, her mom who is about 50 is doing the same thing.

David from Crystal Lake Illinois sitting in the car with his friends wearing a Insane Clown Posse shirt singing Rat Pack songs with his buddies. LOL My father would be proud. Thats the crap he listens to.

The girl from Peotone who decided to use profanities in her song was classy. Then she mother F=d Simon on the way out. LOL

QUOTE(TLAK @ Jan 16, 2006 -> 08:52 PM) Just trying to figure out how a guy with 'Electric Stuff' can be 89-93 life time. And his stuff can be electric, I saw him make the White Sox look like children in '04 and he looked pretty good against them last year. But I also saw him get blown off the mound against other teams, including the hated grubs. You may recall the Yankees even took him out of the playoff rotation because they couldn't trust him. I just don't like this trade. Well you must hate Contreras then. Because before the 2nd half of last year. He looked just as mortal as Vasquez is. Contreras looked just as bad as a Yankee, and he looked just as bad in the playoffs with them. How about this, outside of everyones masterful knowledge of statistics and all, lets trust the man who put together last years baseball team. KW seemed to know what he is doing then. I dont think that all of a sudden he lost his marbles in one year. We gave up a prospect that is supposed to be Mike Cameron part II, a 45 year old pitcher, and a reliever that mad everyone cringe when he went out to the mound. BTW remember the analysis of how bad Garcia was away from Safeco and how bad the sox got ripped giving up the CF of the future in Reed, the next Pudge Rodriguez, and Mike Morse. How did that work out for us. '

Just imagine the time and effort trying to clean up that database. Plus you guys can set it up with all that you have learned in the last few years as far as feature sets and such. s*** I wish we could do this with a bunch of systems at my work, but then again Soxtalkers are a bit more reasonable than my facist users. So how long before SS2k5 goes over 30k in posts on the new board.

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jan 13, 2006 -> 11:51 PM) There was a thread on this a while back....ironically enough. Thats the only problem with the search for the thread before starting one. Its turned off, and the google search method doesnt work as well.

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jan 13, 2006 -> 11:20 PM) Well, there was no change in the boot-up process but I did check the System and it does confirm that I have 768 MB of RAM working. Adding memory is always good to a computer. But adding memory doesnt always equal speed up. The only time you will see significant speed up by adding memory is if your system was below the recommended memory and your system was paging(using the hard disk to swap programs out in and out of memory). As it was said before in this thread you should be able to open more programs than before without as much of a performance hit.

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jan 13, 2006 -> 11:03 PM) Ok, so I just installed a brand new stick of 512 MB ram into my computer (DDR DIMM) boosting my memory output to 768 (1 - 512 and 1 - 256). What the hell happens now? And how exactly do I know that I put it in the correct memory bank? If your system is up and running right now you most likely did ok. But in general.. Boot your computer up. When the system boots it goes through a self test called POST where it tests hardware components. Most likely if it is installed correctly, it will report a memory size change and ask you to press a key to continue or it will ask you to go into BIOS and then save the new changes. At that point it will then boot up into windows and you should be able to see the memory size by right clicking on My Computer and properties or go to Control Panel and double click on the system icon. Now if your system doesnt boot at all, then either you have the wrong type of memory, or your system requires pairs of identical memory in the banks. So if you have 4 DIMM slots, you will have bank0 and bank1(2 DIMM slots equals a bank). In systems that require identical DIMM banks, you can get away with a 512 in bank0, and the 256 in bank 1. You may have to review your motherboard markings to see the bank information, it is usually printed right next to the DIMM banks.

Considering that they voted in a wrestler, why not a vampire. I just want to know if he is going to wear his fangs when he does his state of the state address. He may run for president in 2008. LOL I wonder if Air Force One has a good supply of sunblock and A/B blood.

QUOTE(NUKE_CLEVELAND @ Jan 12, 2006 -> 11:00 PM) His job is to be a partisan hack. No more, no less. People like him aren't interested in whether Alito would make a good judge or not but rather to oppose simply for the sake of opposition. Fortunately, however, leftist hypocrites like Kennedy are nothing more than a noisy irritant and nothing more. Someone should hold this up anytime Teddy goes into a ethics based attack.

I know they traded your buddy away, but let go. Comparing Anderson to Borchards numbers are a joke. Borchard hits in the .260's in AAA, puts up good home run totals. BTW he has been there for 3 plus years. Anderson was in AAA one year, he hit .295 with a higher OPS(829) than Borchard. But because Anderson isnt in your good graces you forgo the process of actually reviewing their minor league numbers. Just make a silly comparison and then move on. And on the Contreras had a great 2nd half and a good postseason. No one is questioning that. But take a good look at the careers of Buerhle vs Contreras and tell me who you would rather have.

I wonder how much the Geek Patrol at Best Buy will charge to swap out memory. 2 Dual Channel 1 Gig Chips, and 5 quarts of Wesson Oil.

QUOTE(chitownsportsfan @ Jan 12, 2006 -> 02:14 PM) No, I'm not taking stats this semester. To respond to the question about contracts: I agree, Vasquez being under our control for more than this season is a bonus. I don't agree this is a reason KW won't trade him. Let me reason with you, I won't use any stats, since you seem to just reject them on sight. KW has shown a propensity for trading prospects this offseason in an attempt to "win now", i.e. in 2006, not 2007, 2008, etc. So, with that in mind, why wouldn't KW spin off Vasquez for Abreu if the Sox were scuffling because they couldn't score runs? What if Thome gets hurt? I mean, to say in a post that KW will never trade a player if idiotic. It doesn't take stats to figure that out. I called Jimh out on it. Besides, here is one stat you need to know regarding Vasquez: 12 million dollars a freaking season, or more than 10 times what Bmac will cost. Actually KW is in the Win for a long time mode. He wants to build a dynasty. So lets propose we trade Vasquez, and then we lose Conteras to FA. Who is our 5th starter next year. Is this 5th starter better than Vasquez? And now that we have Abreu's large salary on the docket, who are you trading so we can aford Mark Buerhle after the 2007 season.
