Anyone see Paranormal Activity? I thought it was decent.

Reset this thread someone...please?

Highly entertaining 1st half in SD.

Yeah I feel great about that trade. *punches own face* Although it made me feel a little better to see the guy that traded for him bench him because of weather concerns.

Surprised no one has commented on the controversy over the upcoming release of Superfreakonomics.

My personal favorite thing about his books is that, his first person writing doesn't just take the perspective within the confines of the author's grammar. He leaps past that - the writing, pacing of speech, etc. is exactly the way that character would effuse. Its a subtle difference that is hard to describe, but, its incredibly effective, and done only rarely. Enjoy it. What a great read. Finished it in one night. Your assessment was spot on.

Perhaps I can recommend overstock.com for discounted dvds?

QUOTE (lostfan @ Oct 16, 2009 -> 01:09 PM) I just bought Greenwald's "Great American Hypocrites" and "Idiot America: How Stupidity Became a Virtue in the Land of the Free" by Charles Pierce. Greenwald plugged his buck on his blog that I read all the time and I succumbed. Effective. Let me know if you'd recommend Greenwald's. I was contemplating whether to pick it up.

QUOTE (Pants Rowland @ Oct 16, 2009 -> 11:27 AM) One thing I do find helpful to end these types of emails is to go to Snopes, fact check the message and paste the correct information into a reply just to whoever sent it to you. Include a very polite but pointed message letting them know you appreciate them thinking of you but emails like this are typically incorrect 99.9% of the time and only serve to cause all the problems already articulated in this thread. Let them know you are interested in hearing about them rather than some Kenyan boy born with a goat's tail and see if they want to get together and catch up. People really appreciate the tip and change their habits accordingly. Otherwise, if you hate the person, do the fact check, paste in a reply, but do a "reply all" and embarrass them publicly for spreading false information, being too stupid to realize it, and burdening their friends not only with wasted time and a clogged inbox, but potentially more spam via emailing lists. You will be spreading the message to more people, stopping that particular person from ever sending anything to anyone again, and, since you hate them anyway, you will never have to speak with them again. Both options have been very effective for me. I've done the latter to a couple of people that annoy the s*** out of me.
