WannaBe: In case I forgot, congrats to them Lady Bruins. =)) U. Mich (69-63) won, but the last spread I saw was -6.5, so if you took UConn w/ spread, you got very lucky, if you bet on them U. Mich, I feel bad; the O/U was 148.5

WannaBe: <CIO> LOL. I remember those mems... <chancho> North by Norwest, totally agree, the audiences know that the plane scene was filmed earlier and played on a screen behind. It was still drama. Same thing with the Mt. Rushmore chase scene.

WannaBe: <plang> Do you have a link to where you got that information/data from? I would love to read it for myself.

WannaBe: Future research project, how did Offenbach - Orpheus in the Underworld became "Can Can" and women kicking legs before the Radio City Hall Rocketts. An history that probably need some "Lookin Into"

WannaBe: ¡Olé! ¡Olé! this is what I see for "¡Olé! ¡Olé!" (game of the day Mar-13-2026) I also know this issue have been around for a while, and it's not that important, in IT term, it is a level 'C', cosmetic fix. But I just wish to report it again. Can CG.com unify this ...

WannaBe: <FSR> March 11 is his birthday, and usually PoD is chosen from the birth date of the player. So unless CG.com decides to change the algorithm on how PoD is decided. We will randomly get "undesired" player(s).

  WannaBe: Forget Sharknado, here is Fishnado!

Dec-30-13  NakoSonorense: If you're driving up north, the 5 is the fastest, right?
Dec-30-13  Shams: <Nako> Absolutely the fastest. How far north are you coming?
Dec-31-13  NakoSonorense: The Bay Area. It'll be my first time up there.
Dec-31-13  Shams: <Nako> You'll have a blast. 101 is worth it if you have the time...the Central Valley is dead boring.
Dec-31-13  NakoSonorense: The 5 it is then! It's going to be a quick trip (only a weekend) and I want to make the most out of it. Next time I'll take the 101.

The Central Valley may be boring, but I doubt it's more so than the 10 East. I've driven to Arizona dozens of times and it's nothing but sand and desert for hours.

Jan-05-14  Shams: <WannaBe> Oh my god, VIN BAKER is on that team?? He is perhaps the most colossal bust in Seattle Sports history. The guy sucked rocks 20 years ago, and thinks he can play *today*?

I'll put $500 on DPRK.

Jan-15-14  technical draw: <WannaBe> I'm told you're the go to man on things about software. I need software that delays a spoken word. In other words I speak into a mic and (an adjustable) delay repeats the spoken words. I have in a mind an idea that might work for people who stutter. Thanks in advance.

  WannaBe: <technical draw> When I was in Jr. High, I spoke fast and stutter'd a bit, I used a device like that...
