I'm going to ask this before i go to bed since i need to be up for 4 am, but now that the wii online if officially down along with ds, do you guys think games like mario kart and any popular wii/ ds online games will drop in price or will it still stay up in price where its at now.

Well those you don't really "need" to play online and I'm sure someone will find a way to hack wii so you can still play online anyways even since nintendo has disabled it. But those games never really go down in price anyways...(unless we're talking smb/duck hunt here)

Where did "and nothing of value was lost" come from? I was watching season two of The Critic last night and Jay said it and that was probably one of the earliest utterings of it.

Reason for curiosity: twitch being bought by google rumors.

Yes. Life saving Spackle. If the hole is too large, you'll need to get a reinforcement wire mesh for structural integrity. But that's if it's a big hole in the wall.

You can also re-texture drywall if it needs to match. Otherwise, Spackle, let it dry, then sand it so it's smooth and flush.

I am not sure what its called but I saw it in the movie Contact (and many other movies), I think its shortwave monitoring, but is it still a thing where you have radio equipment and try to communicate with others?
