demorgon, when the only "worthwhile" part of your post is a smiley - maybe you shouldn't be posting?

Every other word at the republican convention was 9-11.  Don't you watch the Daily Show with John Stewart?

One of my best friends' birthday is 9-11.  So in that sense treating the day in grief is insulting to him.  He deserves a birthday as much as any other person.

More like:Ã,  "roger gossip rtf"

But won't this just force people to come up with l33t spellings for names?


Like:Ã,  "Geeze, \/el won't shut up about his game."

or:     "I wish er|c wouldn't hit on me so much."

Roger would have to log every word on IRC, including all possible monickers.

I introduced my roommates to Skullmonkeys the other day.  I was just playing it in the living room and one said, "Why's this game have such awesome music?"


The answer?  Terry S Taylor.

It's just become very raspy.  Might be a smoker but the sound is great.  God's Away on Business is one of my favorites.  I'll list others later.

Frank's Wild Years is an excellent album.

of course.

He has starred in a few Jim Jarmusch films (Down By Law is great), and his songs are in plenty of films beside Moulin Rouge.  He's very popular in Texas, almost everyone lists him as one their favorite musicians it seems.

So you're talking about the music score? Otherwise I'm at a loss at what I was so obvious about.Ã,  There really isn't too much of a plot in this movie I'm afraid.

I think you'll find that the music had less to do with helping the audience understand the story but rather it attempts more on the side of humor and aesthetics, both of which you appear to be on the counter-culture side of.

Perhaps you could score a version yourself and give me a better idea what would be acceptable?  Or reshade the film frame by frame?

You can only prove that Yahoo sells the most banners by stating that.  Google just doesn't have any banners, but they do have a lot of text ads.  More so than Yahoo.

I m sorry if this came across as harsh

Not at all.  Frankly, I didn't understand a word of it.  Try again?

that's the thing, esseb, I wouldn't put more than two or three instances in there.  I just don't think I've come up with the best ideas just yet.

But also I think the visual would help.  Rather than a character exclaiming these things... what if we see the image in their head of what they'd do with the room?  The bar transforms into a giant editing bay, for example.

I've got another idea for a promo.

Say we filmmakers decided to start our own frat at the University.

It would be us walking through a house for sale, looking at cool features such as a bar, and saying "Heck yeah! ...... We could all put our editing systems on this!"

and they find a mini-fridge in every room.Ã,  "Dude! We could store our film stock in these!"

They come across a basketball in the backyard.Ã,  "Um.... we could film a movie about basketball?"

Hotmail, Yahoo, and every other free email provider with any kind of large userbase make a shitload on ads too. However, they don't provide 1gb of storage.

Yahoo and Hotmail have very distasteful ads in my opinion.Ã,  The difference with Google is that they sell a larger quantity of ads, and only users who search (or email) relevant text will see those ads.Ã,  Ã, 

Yahoo and Hotmail sell few ads, but the ones they do are very prominent on the page (mostly big ugly banners)Ã,  and cost alot more to buy.Ã,  That's why you only see ads for Ford, Best Buy, movies, etc.Ã,  Small businesses and organizations can't afford ads for Yahoo or MSN email.


Google actually lets smaller businesses adverstise and they don't bombard you with ugly pictures.Ã,  That's why I prefer it, in addition to its innovative features.Ã, 


[Not to mention Yahoo and MSN upgraded their accounts only AFTER Google announced Gmail, which means Yahoo and MSN could have provided better service much sooner.Ã,  MSN is STILL trying to milk money out of their users to upgrade their accounts.]
