I don't know, I still prefer the original name, it kind of hearkens back to the days when theme parks were named after their founders, like Disneyland. While the park is fun. I still wish they'd add some more rides. I'm not saying I want a new coaster (though it would be nice), I am thinking more along the lines of a few wet/dry slides like the ones a Legoland Windsor.

Sorry, my friend corrected me. We're going to the 4:30pm taping.

^ What taping were you trying to get into? I'm going to the 11:00 taping. When do you think we should arrive? Also do they have restrooms available for all the guests waiting in line? I've been feeling a little under the weather lately.

What i want to say to the woman: "Well, what do you expect will happen when you try to stand while a vehicle is in motion?" It sucks that the second woman who tried to keep her from falling off got hurt even more. You got to love how these articles tend to bring up every singe accident that has happened at the park for the last ten years. Man I'm very cynical today.

I'm just wondering if anyone else has tried to become an audience member of the Price is Right. I do know they mail out more tickets than they have seats so the audience will always be full and they interview everyone before hand to choose who will become a member of the audience. Among the many things they decide on who to pick for an audience member is if they like your shirt or not (Bob Barker, particularly like animal rights t-shirts). So I was wondering what shirt should I wear? It is between the Balder shirt I bought in Sweden on the UK trip, or the UK trip shirt itself.

For a name, How about VirtualTums?

Just for the hell of it I suggested a poll on who would you rather have alive today. Elvis Presley or John Lennon?

80gb iPod Video. Brand new because my 60 gig iPod broke (battery wouldn't charge) and since I had my receipt Costco allowed me to take it back. I don't have much music on there. I mostly listen to audio books when commuting to school. Here is the breakdown: 207 Songs (13.6 hours) 117 Audio books (25.5 days) The real number is much lower than that since audio books take up multiple tracks. Each book ≈ 10 hours 25 TV Show Episodes (17.6 hours) 51 Movies (2.2 days) About half are short films. I have very cheap ($9 at Target) head phones which I find serviceable and cheap enough that i won't miss them if they break. I also have a pair of Bose Quiet Comfort 2 headphones which stay strictly at home unless I have a long plane flight to endure.

If you want your pictures to look unique try taking some shots on a holga camera. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holga A very strange, but cheap camera which I might be getting just to fool around with.

I have a 47" 1080p Vizio LCD. I did a lot of research before buying it and I am very satisfied with my choice. Turns out Vizio was a division of Sony that got tired of working for Sony so they broke off and are now a big competitor in the flat panel Tv market. They buy their screens from the same manufacturer that Philips, LG, and Sony do. The only difference is the chipsets that each company installs to run the screens.

I'll be the first to say that I'm sad seeing Flashback go. Cyclone clones are abundant in the world but Flash back was a one of a kind ride which only needed non OSHR trains to be very ridable. Anyway I'm looking forward to see how this will change SFMM for the better.

As I tell my friends I am an even mixture of Allies and Enemies from WWII. 25% German 25% Italian 25% Mixture of the British Isles (Welsh, Irish, Scottish, English), with maybe a little French thrown in there to keep things interesting. 25% Polish Which, I guess after I reread what I just wrote, makes me 100% GIMP

I ordered the component cable online, Amazon says I'll get it by the end of the month. I found that I just need cleaner pixel edges when using the internet channel.

It came packed with the system in a little cardboard sleeve.

^Looks Great. I wanted to do the same thing, but I have no photoshop skills what-so-ever, so about a week ago I did a Google image search for Wii Sports box art and came up with this: wii_wiisports.jpg.zip I zipped it because it's a big image file and not mine. I don't want the image itself appear on TPR and get Robb and Elissa in trouble. Props to whoever made it though.

never mind I misunderstood your question.

Life was a privilege he no longer was entitled to. If the video surfaces online, I will watch. I think the world needs to see that he is dead, but that won't stop all the conspiracy theorists saying otherwise.

I haven't been playing much of my 360 since Oblivion. I've been too focused on the Wii and Zelda. Anyway, does anyone know if there will ever be a HDMI output for the 360? So far Microsoft hasn't released any news about it even thought many 360 owners asked for true HD output options (only 1080i for the 360). The rumor that is going around is that Microsoft is planning to release a souped up Xbox 360 with the HD DVD drive built in and that the souped up 360 will be the only 360 system that will offer HDMI output. Thats all I could find out on Google.[/i]

Even if Sony had not included the sixaxis motion sensing feature into their controller they still would not have the rumble feature. The company that designed the rumble type of motor which Sony used in the controller sued for patent infringement and won. Sony was ordered by a Judge to stop all use of a rumble feature for their next system. They should have just settled out of court like Microsoft.

It helps if you try to aim low when closing the door. Around the rabbids' crotch level seems to work the best.

I'm typing this on my Wii right now. Wow this is strange and slow going. On a side note I agree with Elissa that Rayman is the game to get. But beware it is insanely hard to close the outhouse doors in one of the minigames.

This article debunks the delay rumor, sort of.

^ That's really twisted, and very similar to a story my friend told me about a time when she was six.

Interesting. Google satellite image of Biltmore. and a Google satellite image of Hearst Castle.. Yeah Biltmore looks bigger, but I still think Hearst castle has a cooler pool. Just for fun here is a satellite image of my other favorite mansion The Winchester Mystery House even though it is much smaller than the two places above. Awesome trip report by the way. I love looking at places like this.

I don't know, Hearst Castle could give it a run for its money as the largest home. <> I didn't notice that you typed privately owned.
