      Your locks don't work on me. Hehe.

  2. So now ebay has changed the layout, the view lists, the Purchase History, the Dispatched bar, and now the Watch List. The Watch List, is now the What the Hell List, because it's a mess. No option to compare, end times nicely buried to make it harder to see.

      Understanding is not required. Just know that idiots are in charge. Because someone said so.

      Perhaps it's not idiots, but dangerous greedy people who want to force their way of thinking on everyone.

      I think they're slowly stripping away our ability to be individual, and trying to force us all to be the same.

      +1 @thanatos! Google did the same to the Gmail app a few years ago. Still hate all the extra whitespace!

  4. Bubblegum Ice Cream is delicious. It's so hot here at 9.30pm, I just can't stop raiding the freezer. And, I'm running out of cones.

      Hey, I got big bones ;-)

      Anyway, I just took the dog for a 2-mile walk, earlier on, so hopefully I walked it all off.

      I used to like Bubblegum and Licorice a lot, and they're hard to find now.

      I was at a ice cream store yesterday and they made homemade ice cream. Cowboy Coffee was great!

  5. Skyscraper ? Lol. Looks more like Diescraper, or Skyhard.

      I was thinking the same thing watching the promos. Might still be a fun romp though! :)

      ST:TMP was slow and talky by 1979 standards, too. There's a reason everyone loves Khan better.

       

      I like this recut of TMP with the Daft Punk TRON soundtrack a LOT, though.

      I think that even "Khan" would be too slow-paced for today's audiences. They're too accustomed to frenetic editing, and the non-CGI effects would pop them right out of the movie.

      Khan, was a great movie. Although, Shatner will always be remembered for that cheesy "Khhaaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnn" moment. But jaybird3rd, is spot on about today's audiences. Even my own family get bored 10 minutes into movies IF there isn't any action. It's really hard to recommend particular movies without having to explain to them that "Something" will happen.
