Have a Dandy Birthday!

The creamy is good for a desert environment, but in a rocky environment, you really need chunky.

That is very cool. I know that my grandfather on my dad's side was in WWII, but I never heard anything about it. He had a few heart attacks and a massive stroke before I was old enough to ask any questions... and by that point he wasn't really "there" anymore. :( And my grandmother on that...

Yeah chicks always love it when I bust out a jar of Jif while on a date...works everytime lol.

But it only works on your sister...

That was a very "Luke and Leia" moment at the end of that video.

CoD4 lets you do it... but it uses the same key that you use for throwing a grenade... so if you don't pick up the one thrown, you end up throwing your own... can be very dangerous.

I use Handbrake for that myself. Mostly with TV shows because it's annoying to have 5-6 DVDs per season if you're looking for a specific episode... much easier to just store them on a file server and navigate through that. :) I don't do that much for movies though because I generally have a lower to...

Behave? Why would you go and do a silly thing like that?

Just keep in mind that most games will not be playable under Windows on VMware Fusion or Parallels. They have some support for DirectX 8, but it's pretty slow... especially on the Macbook.

Really? I didn't much like the fall party. I had a good time, but it just seemed so commercial. The timing was weird too, doing Friday night to Saturday night. Most of the fun I had was hanging out outside of the party at one of the BDU guys' houses that was nearby.

After viewing this post u linked me to...my hope is a-new! I have a feeling we may see something this fall! I believe this was referring to something that RonHack (yeah, that guy) was trying to put together in lieu of the disappearance of LanChelms, MaxFrag, and NELP. I haven't heard anything recen...

Photoshop Elements is great for casual home use (and not too pricey). The interface is basically the same as actual Photoshop, so if you're used to it, then Elements will be a no brainer.

I'm also a Gimp user. It's extremely powerful and the fact that it's free is quite nice.

How cool would it be if you could have an animated tattoo.... so then the phoenix could fall to ashes and then be reborn in a burst of flames!!

I'll go back to drinking my beer now.

I run OpenWRT on my Linksys WRT54G. Much lower power than using a regular PC and much smaller. It has a cool web-based configuration interface and it seems to work really well. It runs embedded Linux, so it's almost as flexible as having a regular PC running Linux. There's just very limited space fo...

I tried it a while ago and was not impressed at all. To start, the graphics are pretty crappy for the ridiculous hardware requirements. More importantly, the gameplay SUCKS. They have a lot of work to do it on it before it would be worth spending time on.
