Happy Winter-een-mas!
*I know there is a topic in OT about this, I was going to bump it but couldn't find it. If someone finds it I'll have a mod merge them together* Winter-een-mas starts today, January 25th, and goes until January 31st. If you don't know what Winter-een-mas is, check this FAQ. The cliffs of that is that Winter-een-mas is a holiday for gamers. So how do you celebrate? Play games. If you want to get fancy about it, you can make a Winter-een-mas king crown, and wear that. Have a fun Winter-een-mas everyone!

Ordered and received. CD's and DVD's.
How many Criterion movies do you have now? Are those the Region 2 box sets? I think I like those better. With the Region 1 box sets Season 1 and Season 5 boxes are different that Seasons 2-4. Season 1 is just a little different, but Season 5 is really different. It annoys me a lot, but I get annoyed easily so that doesn't mean much. :D

[central] Sony playstation 3
I would buy one if they were less expensive. I thought the $250 for a Wii is still a little too pricey for my tastes. $600 for the PS3 just is completely out there.

The Gvs.G debate (Graphics vs. Gameplay)
I always enjoy seeing good graphics on newer games. Like everyone else pretty much agreed, gameplay is more important though. That I can't entirely agree with. I can play a game, such as Tetris, with basically no graphics at all. Just squares. I can play a lot of very simple games with not so good of graphics. If something has great graphics but no gameplay, I would probably look at it and admire the graphics for a few minutes, then never play it again.

I play King's Field 2 every now and then.

Acne
I think I only had to do one, maybe two blood tests while I was on it.

Acne
I already mentioned it in my posts. In my post I mentioned my dad having acne till he was about 35, and the only reason it went away was because he took Accutane. So it doesn't always magically disappear once you get older.

Help a guy out?
Anything to make it easier to figure the problem out, he should do. He is asking us for help, not the other way around. Also, I already said what you said: Most likely his player came with those cords. What he will need will be a female-female A/V cord, which I don't know if they exist or not. Or he will have to buy an A/V to 1/8th inch cord, with the A/V part being female, and the 1/8th inch being male obviously. Either way, if that actually does work, power will still be a problem. I don't know anything about power cables.

Your Wii Consol number?
I think a lot of people are thinking the exact same thing :P . My cousin's head will probably explode as soon as he gets it, he loves it. Personally, I didn't really care for SSB. So far I haven't met anyone else who thought this way (well, except for PS fanboys) :D .

Is the waterline perfectly level?
Yep, that is true. Tides are caused by the moon I think. I was just trying to simplify down to just taking into account one force.

Is the waterline perfectly level?
I think people are blatantly skipping over my post. Water is not level. It curves with the Earth.

But when you have supercomputers calculating how to throw the ball...

Acne
Not if it is hereditary. I washed my face twice a day all through my life, since I knew I would get it one day. My dad just got rid of his about ten years ago, when he was 35. He washed his face multiple times a day since he was a teenager and he first got it.

Your Wii Consol number?
As far as I know, none of them let you. Read the first post, and you will figure out how to find out your number :wink: .

China Downs sattelite.
While space debris may be a problem, it falling down to earth probably wouldn't be. It should mostly disintegrate by the time it gets the the ground.

China Downs sattelite.
Yeah, we are definitely going in the wrong direction. We should be more worried about setting up space stations, and maybe a moon base. I'd like to see a moon base before I die, I think it would be possible before then.

Acne
NO :shock: What was your mother thinking? I mean, she means your best, but... Sitting in a bathtub full of water with already dry skin makes it even worse! It does *not* moisturize your skin, it further dries it up. Darn... I took the initiative myself :P . She didn't say anything however, maybe she didn't know. I sure didn't. At that point my entire body was itching (and I mean everywhere :( ) so I wasn't really thinking all that much.

Cruelty to Animals
I always find these things funny. People always fall for them.

China Downs sattelite.
Hehe :P . It might have actually been over a week ago that this happened, because it seems like forever. Anyhow it was long enough ago for me to pretty much completely forget the details. More recent news in the "space race" (which I believe is still going on, just not quite as important anymore) is India successful mission with a reusable spacecraft. India and China are the two most populated countries in the world. They are pretty far behind in the race, but any step forward is bad for the rest of the world. They can easily become the superpowers of the future.

What magical channel is that? :P Heroes is NBC, and 24 is FOX. I don't think they normally get together all that often.

Acne
When I was taking it my face was hardcore dry. Not regular "oh man I feel dry", it was tight, and flaky, and my lips were chapped the entire time I was on the medicine. I'd sit there at night with a thing of Vaseline and keep putting it on around the mouth area. It hurt like hell whenever I opened my mouth, because the corners of my mouth would be dried and would break and bleed. All that wasn't that bad, I could deal with it. I was supposed to go see the doctor again if the side effects became too serious, but it was working and I didn't want to stop. What I couldn't deal with was another side effect (I am guessing, since it happened while I was on it). It was called Dermography or something, anyways it translated into "Skin Writing". You could literally write on my skin by just dragging a fingernail over it. Normally when you drag your fingernail over your skin it makes a little white line, I guess of dead skin cells. When you did it on my skin, the line would get really red, it would push out about a mm, and would get about 2mm wide. I could literally write on my skin. I wrote my name on my hand and it stayed like that for about 10 minutes. Which turned out to be a stupid thing to do, seeing as how every line itches. My whole body ended up itching actually, just from wearing clothes. By the second day I not moving at all, and just sitting in the bathtub full of water. The third day I was on the verge of bursting into tears, my mom took me to the hospital that night. This was only about 4 years ago when I was 16 :lol: . Some medicine fixed it up pretty much right away. So it kind of sucked, but it did work.

I won't ever be able to watch it right away because Heroes is on at the same time :P . 24 is great, I just like Heroes better :P

Acne
Accutane works. I don't know if the side effects are worth it or not though. I don't know if it is still legal or not either, too many suicides.

Acne
I used Accutane, but it is some hard core stuff. Causes depression pretty badly, and dries you out a lot. I mean a lot.

Is the waterline perfectly level?
Um, yes it does deal with the Earth on a very minute level. Ignoring the meniscus part of the problem, if you have a glass of water the water isn't perfectly flat. On a small scale such as that the roundness is basically nothing, I don't know if you could ever measure it on that sort of scale.
