Indeed. Holy crap I barely made it through the first episode of that. It still haunts me to this day too. :shock:

If we could invent teleportation, we could teleport an extremely powerful telescope 100 light years from earth, and see earth as it was in 1911. Then we could teleport the telescope back to earth, and have new footage of 1911. We could do this to any other year we wanted, too. Of course, someone just needs to invent that powerful telescope and teleportation.

I've noticed that a lot of the former "hollywood video" dvds are now being sold in pawnshops!

people are taking them there to get money I guess

Today i had a thought, "It would be nice to actually beat a Megaman game." Since i haven't beat one before. I almost beat Megaman X for snes, but i had to give it back to my cousin, then he lost it, and i forgot the password for the game anyway. The only mega man game i have now is mega man 3, which is extremely hard compared to MMX IMO

I don't know why people have so much trouble with the first Mega Man game; I beat it on my first sitting!

Yeah I should probably find those. As a kid, I could only find one in the ice level, which was a give a way.

I've never played the first mega man. I've only played 3, 4, and X. And my mistake I have mega man 4 not 3.

I wonder how long the protests in Egypt will continue with out deterioration into full scale revolution. Makes me think of the Rolling Stones song Gimme Shelter. "it's just a shot away"?
