I wouldn't worry about it too much. Some of my job is looking for clues and errors, then googling for a solution too. Frankly, most people can't search worth a damn even if their life depends on it. :lol:

Smile: The "Ultraman" DVD collection I ordered the other day arrived. Can't wait till I get the time to kill an afternoon on it.

Frown: Bought my first smart phone today and now I feel dumb. Not used to a phone with a learning curve.
Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?

Silly rubber suits but too cool, remember watching that as a kid. Amazing how much work put in the mini sets for an actor to destroy in the monster outfits. The model maker team must have hated Godzilla. Just occurred to me, the Streetfighter flame ball throw concept. Maybe inspired by that laser blast move of Ultraman crossing the arms? :D

Yeah, that's been me since last Thursday.

My phone sent out a text message this morning (it read "I'm in class". not even remotely true) all on its own. I can only assume its supposed to be a quick canned message to send when you can't actually respond, but I'll be damned if I can figure out how that happened.

A couple of :)

I got my first HDTV yesterday, a 19" Philips! Why I haven't done it sooner, I have no idea. I also got set up with some good quality cables from Monoprice and a HD cable box. The picture is *AMAZING*. Hooked up the SNES to it playing Hyperzone, I'll eventually get the Dreamcast and the Gamecube into the action -
Image
My laptop also has an HDMI out so I hooked another Monoprice cable into the side port, Taito Legends 2 looks pretty sweet.
Image
Also, my cable system FINALLY got NFL Network this week, so I won't miss anymore Thursday night games!

I bought a new phone a few weeks ago for 15.99 euro.

You can call and SMS people with it. It's amazing...

Oh, it also has a built-in flashlight... :mrgreen:
