I remember a movie called "Object Of Beauty" in which he co starred with Andie McDowell and they both played the perfect people living beyond their means. Fuggin Andie McDowell is so hot in that movie

Brad Pitt is a guy we like to hate for obvious reasons. But,imho, he is one of the premiere actors of the last 10 years or so. Not because of box office appeal but for the diverse parts he chooses and how he handles them. Kalifornia is Oscar worthy for Pitt. Not a big movie though. Snatch was another great part for him. He also shined in a supporting roll in True Romance. His pretty boy appeal belies his acting talent. Can't wait for him in this new Coen brs flick

Love that movie as most Coen bros efforts. They have a new one coming out next month with the girl cop from Fargo and a killer cast.

We visit my sister a lot in Santa Clarita(just north of LA) and the guy behind them built his house as he is a contractor. His entire roof is solar panels and he says he actually ends up selling back power back to the grid most months. I believe they get that in the form of a credit from PGE. Anyway, I don't know any of the variables. How they live. How many kids. How much laundry and so on. But I have been told this more than once about actually putting power up back to the grid. For what its worth.

Lots of houses around here have them. IF(and a mighty big one at that at these prices) I were to build a house here that would be a slam dunk for me.

In our league we have him as a "X" player on our roster. Just a extra guy you can draft at the very end and do what you want with him I guess. I got him just to have a Bill to cheer for on my team. -
Funny. Used to do the same for big fights. Tyson, Arguello and so on. Never knew if the bar you were going to was going to be able to find that magical signal that wasn't scrambled by Bob Arum or Don King. lol HUGE cheer in the bar if they did manage to reel it in.

Hi Orange. Yes we have backups for every position. We start 1.QB 2.RB's 2.WR's 1. Kicker 1. Defense We are allowed to make any changes we want prior to the start of the season. So, any player not drafted I can pick up as long as I drop a player. I did this as I dropped Dangelo Williams(Panthers) in favor of Chris Johnson(Tennessee) who I think is going to have a great year and a bit of a sleeper.

Nice post. They should be ashamed for their grade 3 level sense of humor. -

I'm sure the Chinese are severely traumatized. How will they ever recover from this???? I'm sure this ranks right up there in their 2000 year history as one of their worst events to deal with. -
Boy do I love pre-moistened toilet paper!!!

Anyone going to pick up Madden 09 at Midnight?
Dante replied to Turn Down For Watkins's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Damn. PC version had that 5 years ago. Console gaming really does suck. Dumbed fuggin down for mass distribution. Thats business I guess. sigh -
I know it's way early to gripe about anything. This particular habit of the Bills is kinda of a open wound, historical deal. When I see them play call like that I guess I'm ultra sensitive to it. I know I'm probably jumping the gun but I get frustrated quickly with the conservatism.

Bold=Not so great. I love the enthusiasm though. Glass half full!!!!

I'm going to say I do watch some reality TV. Namely. Amazing Race. Ramsays Kitchen Nightmares(BBC Edition). Top Chef. Iron Chef America. Flavor Of Love(so stupid it's entertaining). I think a lot of the appeal of reality tv is it's a bit like real sports in that its a competition. Also it's easier to relate to the contestants than it is highly paid athletes. I will say that most reality shows are pretty stupid to watch. My wife continually tries to get me to watch Big Brother but I get bored out of my skull. If you don't take them too seriously some of them are just plain fun. Check out "Reality Bites Back" on Comedy Central. It's on right after the Gong Show and is worth a look. It's kind of a spoof on all reality shows. I have to say my favorite reality is BBC's Kitchen Nightmares. Sometimes the stories are heartbreaking. -
I'm still pissed no PC version. I think they are resuming it for 2010 though. Probably won't pick it up for 360

One of my most consistent gripes over the last 10 years or so, is the Bills predictable offense. Nothing new but I really think they are putting both the QBs and RB's at a disadvantage. D's are stacked against Lynch on first down and everyone knows TE is going to be passing on 2nd and third. Couldn't we just throw it on first down once and a while? On Sunday that was what I bitched about to my son. #1 complaint. http://www.realfootball365.com/index.php/a...les/bills/12335

Well, if both the NFL an NBA expand into Europe the crime rate might fall here just a little. However, GM will suffer because Escalade sales will fall.

Dolphins with a never was Chad and a re habing Ronnie Brown=No Worries Jests with a washed up Favre with a new offence and eventual Favre injur=No worries GO BILLS!!!

Thanks for the honest review BlueFire. I know Schaub is a bit of a reach but Ive always liked him. I think he is ready to emerge but this is based mostly on hunch. I really wanted Bree's but that just didn't happen. Of course, as you can imagine, TE's become very lean as you get to your second one. Keller was one of the last few that had starting potential. I like the Bills and the Broncos D;s based largely on being "bad weather" teams. I'm counting on Bills D getting some turnover scores and possibly punt return TD's. Macelvan(sp) and Parrish? Those count for the D in our league.

Not a lot of interest over here. I rank the Winter Olympics and the X Games ahead of it for fun. I mean really, gymnastics?? Back in the 70s and 80s they used boxing as the premier event in the Summer Games and it was great. Last time I tried to watch it and I could barely find any at all.
