I'll check out the Usingers myself. I own at least 3 cookbooks that are entirely hotdogs. Not joking. I'm a fan.

Be careful. You too could become a hotdog snob. Easily.


The Franks, weisswurst, and knockwurst are my favorites, but everything I've eaten on their list is terrific. Even the blood sausage is mouth watering.

Awesome! Frontier Communications added El-Rey Network.

RAGE! They bundled it in the Spanish language package, even though the content is primarily in English.

I've been hearing about this channel since it launched, and I have a friend whom has been consistently talking about it for a year. This is seriously annoying.

That is some sadness. El Rey is like the best thing on TV.

On my cable it's on 940, blended in with the Spanish channels in the 900s, but it comes in the basic digital package. I've seen tons of uncut movies in the past 2 months.

It also played into the surprisingly deep fanmade continuity that involved basically a bunch of toys banding together with or against Power Ranger action figures. One of the villains was an Elmo car, and another duo consisted of my Tyco camcorder and his wife (a Disney's Hercules Happy Meal Toy, the medallion one to be exact). There WAS gonna be much lengthier project but it fell through.

All of these were done on the spot, in one take, with improvised dialog and action, and was shot in real-time with toys.
REPO...I think I speak for all of us when I say that I desperately want to see this film. If you posted it online, I can guarantee that it would raise enough money to get you to NYC.
It was LITERALLY a black-and-white shot-on-VHS mono-sound short video of someone playing with Power Rangers toys (iirc I was well too old) and doing all the voices. And like I said I only shot the one short video.

:P : Dad's still driving me nuts. He has pretty much moved onto what I guess will be his next family. He is hardly ever around and is constantly coming up with BS excuses every night as to why he isn't here. I wish he would just come out and say what he's doing since he sure as shit isn't mowing that 0.25 acres of grass at his storage building and "splitting logs" 7 nights a week :roll: . I'm guessing his girlfriend has an older kid(probably not his but who knows) as well since he is buying a shit load of odd gifts(Far Cry 4, Pitchers Mitt, Etc. :P) through my Amazon account since I have prime :roll: . He also asked me to buy him a Wii for streaming the other day and I made the mistake of telling him I had a spare so he's taken that and I guess they are using the Netflix account I pay for now as well :evil: .

:) : Around 3k saved up and once I hit 5k I'll have a down payment ready for my own place. Seems like there are a stream of livable places that aren't in the bad parts of town in the 20-25k range so hopefully I'll be moving out in the next 2-3 months if all goes well. Can't wait to get out of here.

You should reset your accounts and change all of your passwords so that he cannot use them any more. (I really, really hope you did not end up paying for his Amazon purchases.)

No he is using his own card, but it's still annoying to see the crap popping up in my order history. First thing I'm doing once I get out of here is changing all my passwords. I don't mind my brother/mom using my Netflix and Prime, but he sure as shit is getting cut off. Really wanting to get a house as opposed to an apartment so I'm just keeping my head down for now, and playing dumb.
