  1. LMAO! That's him - the guy that played Ziggy in 'Quantum Leap.' He was a math teacher as well, right? The one with 'Survived by his wife, son and lots and lots of laughter' in his obituary.
  2. I haven't see it, but the guy in jail played a character in a 'muppets' movie - he was damn funny in that movie too.
  3. I have the same question. I just think that 4 lbs is severely understating Giambi's weight loss if people can actually see it. But as I say, what the hell do I know...
  4. I read his story in the Sun-Times and it was a very good read. I hope he can stay clean this time around. Good luck and Godspeed Lamar!
  5. That's a very good question. Unless there is a valid reason, he should get the same 'punishment' (it's not the word I am looking for, but it's close) that anyother player showing up late. Overall, I think he and the rest of the boys will be there when they are supposed to be there.
  6. Let's see how accurate I can be (I am certain if I make some mistakes there are plenty here who will have no problem correcting me ): There was a guy who had season tickets behind homeplate and would always yell at the fans to get up to welcome the Sox onto the field or if they did something kickass or if they needed a nudge to help them get the tying (or winning) run. Supposedly someone started complaining about him and the Sox asked him to tone it down. After that, not sure what happened...
  7. Take that you pieces of foliage! Go Ronny Go Ronny! (No, not Woo Woo - Ron Francis got the game winning goal - to which I say - and to him!) And now Weekes will proceed to give up 5 goals in the next few games - lol! Sorry, I don't get to celebrate big wins all that often and being that are all but eliminated, I gots to celebrate while I can!
  8. How can you notice 4 lbs differnece on another person ?! Is it really only 4 lbs? More than the 4 lbs (as quoted in the article), it's the smaller legs that are telling IMO. But then again, what the hell do I know?
  9. Yeah, damn it they should be exploiting the idiot women they seem to have no problem finding. Seriously though, I only tune to Fox for the NFL, the occasional MLB game, the Simpsons and occasional 'Malcolm in the Middle.' Otherwise, I have absolutely no use for the garbage they put on the air. DISCOVERY CHANNEL ALL THE WAY!!!
  10. Ich spreche ein kleine Deutche! B)
  11. I 'd be happy if there was real campaigning going on in either of the camps. Mudslinging is old and shows that the slinging candidate can't stand on his/her (in pres case this year his) own abilities. Tell me what you did that makes you a good candidate, what you will do for this country, not some BS from years ago that has almost no bearing on now. ANYONE BUT BUSH!!!!!
  12. How in heck did I forget Dennis Goldberg?! :banghead
  13. Brian had a Gateway and it was a POS. I think we are going to go with the Dell - besides the testimonials here, I am getting quite a bit more for the same price. And that was by picking and chosing the things I wanted on the computer. as well! I've always wanted to build my own, but I don't have the time.
  14. We are planning on getting a new computer because my HP is getting a bit old and sluggish. Upgrading everything that needs to be upgraded makes buying one a better deal. Brian is a gamer so we are picking a computer that will provide the best game playing experience for him. All offer the home version of Windows XP as their operating systems. All are Pentium IV. Dell is 3.4GHz, Alienware is 3.2GHz and Gateway is 3.2GHz. For video cards, Dell has a 128Mb Nvdia GeForce, Alienware has a the Nvdia as well, but for $30 more, you can get the Ati Radeon and Gateway lists 128MB ATI Radeon 9600G (this is their video card, right?). For sound cards, Dell has Live! 5.1 Soundcard, Alienware has Soundblaster 7.1 and Gateway has SoundBlaster Audigy 2 Audio. For SDRAM, all three offer 1024MB. FORGOT: Hard drive space: Dell has a 250GB drive, Alienware has 120GB (for $130 I can get the 250GB drive) and Gateway has a 160GB. There are some other differences that are offered so I can still go up or down in these selections, but costwise, some of them aren't feasible. Overall, is there one of the three brands we should go with and do the selections we made make a good gaming computer. Is there someplace else we should look to build a good gaming computer? I was leaning towards Alienware, but I feel like I am getting more with a Dell. Thoughts? Thanks!
  15. I should think there is a difference between an adult having that at home and a 6th grader having it at school.
  16. lol That's where the Brain and I sit - 2nd row from the top - when we go to see the Sens/Canes play the Hawks.
  17. I was reading about that over the weekend. It's a scary situation for the Hatian citizens - having to jump in the ocean to avoid getting shot...
  18. I understand why a punishment was doled out (and it should be - and yes, I know I will get flamed for that, but so be it), but there has to be something better than barring him from classes for a period of time.
  19. Men never do schticks about sex and dating...okay. I think it is more that women hit men's sore spots than that they are not funny. But, to each their own. Damn, now I feel like Pepe the King Prawn...okay. heehee
  20. Elaine Boosler is hysterical. She hasn't been around much lately. Heck, I am not even sure if she is still alive. Roseanne was funny until her schtick got old/her show went weird. Oh and how could I forget, Tim Allen - 'Men are pigs!' and 'Men lies so much because women b**** all the time.' Damn funny (and somewhat truthful too! heehee).
  21. They were on Bonnie Hunt's TV show not too long ago and I was crying I was laughing so hard at them.
  22. For whatever it's worth, to me, b****ing is b****ing. Bruce Wolf is a pud thumper and I wish the Loop wouldn't use him as their sports/news guy. As soon as I here the boys announcing him, I gotta change the station. :puke
