[I searched on IGN and found only old threads. Please be gentle with me, oh repost police] ;) Not a huge story, but wonder if it will effect the way they report game news now - being owned by a huge outlet (and doesn't Fox Interactive make games?)... http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/9254612/...

Hi All, I just ordered a Chaintech Socket 754 MK8M800 motherboard and an AMD Sempron 64BIT 3000+ Processor S754 Palermo 1.8GHZ 128K L2 Cache 90NM SSE3 for a home/office budget PC I'm building. I was pretty confident they would work fine together until I realized that the description here...

Voltron: 5 lions / one robot. Would kick some arse but would be overwhelmed. Transformers: How many are we talking? All of them would be, like, 300 robots. Thats pretty deadly. Or are we talking Gen 1 Decepticons only? Robotech: Do you mean Valkyrie Squadrons? Or Valkyries, Ground Mech's...

Cops do! TEH W1NNAR!!!

The Seratonin ReUptake Inhibitors (like Paxil) are not, as far as I understand it. However, Reel is correct that you can't just stop taking them cold turkey as that wreaks havoc on you. One reason people can be 'dependant' on them is that they feel better on the meds, so they do not work...

I can't believe this obvious 'bait N troll' thread has attracted this much of exactly the response he was after... <ignore>

Main purpose of that particular Doonsbury is to serve as a political soapbox, not for humor. Doesn't matter that I agree with him, its just that its not a funny "HaHa" comic its a funny "Hmmmm" one, meant as political commentary and to provoke political discussion. Sorry, but it should be...

Your above statement is only valid if it is about drag/street racing in a deserted area, such as the racing that goes on at night in industrial areas, etc. The guys in the article were drag/street racing on residential, occupied streets. The problem there is that they are not only risking...

acemcmac: No flames here, but I will try to explain a few issues: 1) Not everyone has great reflexes - its an inborn thing. The fact that her SUV was hit dead center head on means she did not have time to react at all. No matter what she was driving, she physically as a human being did not...

Congrats, man! Don't sweat the folks advising a prenup, its just bad experiences have made them cautious. That whole thing is a decision only you can make. :) Besides, if I posted here and said: "I just proposed to my girlfriend and she said yes! We are both 20 and sophmores at...

LOL, no - on a 35mph residential street like my commute is full of, I'm at 35 in first gear. The civic-kiddies scream that poor little 104hp 4 banger up to around 55-60 before they'll back off. So even when I beat them up to 35-40, they keep flooring it to 55 and 'smoke' me. Totally true...

A couple exceptions: 1) If we are all in a left-turn lane and get a left-turn signal onto a 2 lane road. Legally I make the left into the left lane, then should change lanes to the right (rather than making a 'wide' left). Problems come up when some Speed Racer behind me follows my butt...

:(

Car? Some Harleys are pretty tame in terms of acceleration.

Well, $52 for a cable is Best for them if you Buy it. :P
