  1. My 2nd WU finished yesterday and still hasn't shown up on the stats.

    First a disclaimer: I'm not reading this thread - at least not entirely. I do not hold a stake in either camp concerning the chimnroy franchise, nor am I truly interested. But I see a quote like the one above - and I can't help but think that it should be the opposite way around: the courts are there to prove guilt, not innoncence. If there have been illegalities, rapes and/or other crimes punishable by law, then let charges be laid, and the offender tried in a court of law. If not, then all of this evidence is nothing short of heresy (however unfortunate that may seem to some of you.) I'm not too sure about the technical legalities - maybe we should ask Gams - but as I understand it, dishonesty and charlantism aren't criminal acts (in and of themselves).

    Make some Ghormeh Sabzi & coocoo. MMMM!!!!
  4. Sasun, I think you'll be MUCH disappointed in Sony's interface and usage features. The Canon you purchased pretty much allows you to view ALL the camera's settings in one go - with the Sony, you have to dig through mune options to verify cfg settings of things like flash & exp compensation, white balance etc. And let's not forget optics. For a compact camera you can beat the S400 - except with maybe the newer model. For a digital SLR, I think for the price the digital Rebel is simply brilliant. Plus it works with my EOS lenses. (Disclaimer: I'm biased against Sony. They suck . Give me a choice of just-about-any-alternate-brand vs. Sony, and I'll choose the former.)
  5. Now I don't feel so bad (you being in 1st, that is...) I still uphold that your system (no fractional points + short bench) has been unduly harsh on me... but we'll firgure that out for next season.
  6. Holt came close - 18 points. How are *you* in first?? I totalled you this week. (my proudest moment - with my top scorer on bye, go figure) Anyway - not too keen on my team, still I figure I may be middle of the pack by the end of the season. Watch out for Domino though - his team has loads of potential - and I think he just knocked off Thoth
  7. Kerry doesn't seem to be jumping on the dozens of opportunities he's getting to communicate to middle america what GW's tenure has brought. Not that Kerry would dramatically change things.... <_<
  8. I have 2 WU's on the go - one on my Mac - (due in December!) and another on my PC (using the console interface, also due in December!!) I think the team may have to wait a while for my contributions!
  9. funny, they used to sell those CDs at the 2nd Cup stores around here (kind of like a canadian starbucks.)
  10. We think alike Azat jan. Eventhough I'm not a proponent of vigilantiism, I think i'd lose complete control under these kinds of circumstances. A case in Canada a few years back involved a father who badly beat his son's abuser (the bus driver). The father received more jail time than the sexual predator!

    This is only going to start a fight - I'm closing the topic as a pre-emptive measure. Sorry for the inconvenience.

  13. Anything is faster than this! I'm 2 % finished!!!
  14. I hear it all the time - I'm not even american.
  15. booo! I disagree... <_< I think one of the most enjoyable 'eaux de vie' happens to be cognac. It warms you to your soul, and tastes devine. There's a depth of flavours in congac that is not surpassed by many other beverages. If you don't like cognac on it's own, you can mix it as well (but don't use the good XO stuff for mix, that would be a travesty!) Try this: half cognac, half grand marnier, served on ice in a snifter. It's sweet, and has a nice punch - and is excellent as a digestif. Kenats!
  16. My 1st WU isn't due until late Dec. does that mean my stats won't count until then?? Can't i get another smaller WU???
  17. Look up Komitas Vartapet I'm sure there will be other suggestions that will follow...
  18. I'll say it again - i hesitate to buy anything Sony. :bleah: <-- there should be a smilie for this Dell workstations (desktops) I've had have been flawless. The laptops I've worked with however, are another story. I think I'd probably go for a Toshiba these days, but I haven't been shopping around much. Or how about a nice Apple Powerbook 17in! :D
