  1. I've been going through similar revelations, Yoda. I recently used the Amazon Marketplace to list a fair number of DVDs and Xbox / PS2 / 360 games that I knew I'd never play again. I don't know that I'll ever have the balls to get rid of the whole kit n' kaboodle (what if I suddenly get a hankering to play Wall Street Kid?!?!) but I think it's definitely a good idea to reduce.

  2. I stand mine upright, it's been that way for about six months, and none of my discs were scratched up. The only time I've ever seen a 360 scratch up a disc was when my friend had it upright in the middle of his floor and accidentally knocked it over while a game was spinning.

  3. I so diagree James granted Boston has won twice in the last four years but we're making up for lost time and those damn yankees lol Boston deserves to defend just as anyone else deseves to defend. The Rays deserve a chance just like anyone else but as I said in previous posts for the majority of their franchise history they've been in last place. Now if the Rays managed to pull the winning streak that they did this year next year by all means they'd be great for a WS run..... but honestly one year of good performance out of like 9 bad ones. That just aint happening.

    :ph34r:

    I'm just about the definition of a casual fan and I was feeling the goosebumps there. Incredible game. WOOOOoooooo

  4. Well, since I've bought just about every single one of them...

    -Judas Priest: Screaming for Vengeance (way, way, way more fun than I thought it would be)

    -Red Hot Chili Peppers: Blood Sugar Sex Magik (still haven't played all of it)

    -Rush: Moving Pictures (god yes)

    -The Cars: Self Titled (fantastic, didn't think much of it before it was released on RB but now I adore it)

    -The Pixies: Doolittle (the wife is head over heels for it, myself, I actually think it's redundant and overrated)

    -Motley Crue: Dr. Feelgood (only bought two tracks from this one)

    ...and the aforementioned Megadeth, which I also didn't buy. They need to hurry up with the Stevie Ray Vaughan and Jane's Addiction.

    Next question! Same subject matter!

    Name the first game released by Harmonix for a home console.

  5. Volume 4 is a collection of annual style one-shots, elnino, which is why Dillon wasn't the artist. Those stories are all right, but they're not essential to the rest of the series (with the possible exception of the Saint of Killers arc). When I'm re-reading Preacher, which I've done maybe a dozen times now, it's not unlike me to skip that TPB altogether. Rest assured, it picks up a huge head of steam almost immediately. Once you reach the desert, the hits just don't stop coming.

  6. Sorry for the cut and paste from the big O...

    A few buddies and I took part in a local 48-hour film festival this past weekend, and today the organizers have posted all of the entries to YouTube. They'll be holding an awards ceremony at the end of the month, and one of the categories is "YouTube Favorite," which I guess goes to the most viewed, most rated or highest rated video online. They've been pretty vague.

    So, anyway, if you've got a spare moment or two and feel like helping ol' Q out, or if you're just morbidly curious and want to see my film debut (in dual roles, no less) hit the link below and vote it up. I'd really appreciate it.

    For the uninformed, a 48 hour film festival means everything involved with the production had to be completed within a single two-day period. Concept, writing, casting, shooting, editing, etc... all in two days. We were given a genre (vampire movie) an action (character carrying something too heavy for him/her) and a line ("I do nice things for two reasons and two reasons only: money or sex. The decision is usually based on gender.") to keep us honest, and everything else was left to our imagination.

    If it were a 49-hour film festival, the scene between 3:30 and 3:50 would've been axed. It was an extra clip that shouldn't have been there but we were so strapped for time, we didn't even get a chance to screen it before we had to rush off to turn it in.
