| | I'm well behind... and only getting weekends to work on the vids. I'll be able to submit at the final deadline, it can either be all three, or just the last one, if we want to keep to the original deadline schedule. Flag this | Edit this post |

| | nope, not going to finish in time. got a very late start, thanks to a surprise wedding (not mine)... I will concede the first round, unless all interested parties want to extend the deadline by a day... Flag this | Edit this post |

| since I don't have time during the week, I figured I should unpack and make sure stuff works... after saying I'd wait, it occured to me a couple of days ago that we really can't do anything without the guidelines anyhow. so really there's just the time it would take to assemble the parts that would be an advantage, right?
so with that in mind, I think it's not a bad idea to test everything out and make sure it's ready to roll, in case anything is faulty or breaks in transit. Flag this | Edit this post |

| | my first thought wasn't "I would have taken him down!" like some idiots have offered... but rather, "I wish I could have helped him emotionally in some way, so that he wouldn't have gotten to this point," but then I see stuff like this, and I realize that some people are probably beyond help. for chemical or rearing reasons, this guy was a timebomb. I don't think MacGuyver could have defused him. Flag this | Edit this post |

| it's worth noting that every 2-3 months, a report comes out by the "experts" who are studying global warming, and they say something along the lines of 'oops, it turns out that estimates were off -- way off. it looks like it's about 20% worse than we thoughts'
they're not talking about what they thought in 1978, they're talking about what they thought 2-3 MONTHS before.
it's changing exponentially. just ask people in Vanuatu. Flag this | Edit this post |

| funny that we don't have PM's on this site...
anyhow, I wanted to say that I'm going to get my hardware a bit sooner than you are, but I'm going to keep the boxes shut until you get yours, as long as you will let me know as soon as yours arrive. that way, we have the same lead-in time. sound good? Flag this | Edit this post |

| | btw - I am not sure if this sucker has cleared customs already, but I am willing to hang onto the stuff unopened until Yoda gets his, if it looks like there will be a time gap. Flag this | Edit this post |

| | I like how sometimes in on the highest-rated page, you will see the same vid posted by a few people... like "ooo, look at mine, not the others that are identical!" at one point, the latest Shakira vid comprised 40% of the top five pages. Flag this | Edit this post |

| they announced this quite a while back, perhaps this is a second push now that there's more pub for the game...
and boy, that soundtrack! because after playing the game for 2,000 hours, I'll really need to put on a CD of the music in order to keep it circulating in my head. Flag this | Edit this post |

| some of the other competitions have not featured the reader-ratings so much... like the LotRO screenies competition, the winner wasn't even close to the top of the list -- I was thinking that reader votes weren't being counted much at all.
so I don't know about that... I would not, however, mind seeing the voting scores, as they did for an earlier round. Flag this | Edit this post |

| | these previews are just way too much... I couldn't avoid seeing this one in the theater, and of course couldn't look away. I usually do a good job of avoiding TMI before a movie I'm definitely going to see, but they're just inundating us with content! Flag this | Edit this post |

| this could end up being the greatest movie ever... but I'm sure it won't be. think of the potential, though, in the hands of a master...
I dunno about Favreau as director, but I'll reserve judgement. I wouldn't mind having him as the writer -- have that Swingers scene with Mike calling Nicky, but replace them with Tony Stark and Natasha Romanov. Flag this | Edit this post |
