I eat at McDonalds very sparingly.  I'd say about 2 to 3 times a year tops for the last 3 years.

And when I go, I only get McNuggets - I don't know that I've eaten more than one hamburger from them in my life (I'm not too big on hamburgers).

It is definitely worth seeing - and I hope as many Americans as possible do.

Watto's Junk Yard / Re: How long have you collected SW?
« on: May 15, 2004, 02:22 PM »
I had the toys as a little kid - but destroyed them all playing with them...

I started collecting, like many late bloomers, in 1995 at the age of 15.  9 years...wow.

Watto's Junk Yard / Supersize Me - the movie.
« on: May 15, 2004, 02:14 PM »
Anyone see this movie last night?  Anyone planning on seeing it?

I saw it, and while it didn't tell me too much I didn't already pretty much know, it was fascinating, very well done, and paints a terrifying picture of the way this country eats and the obesity epidemic:

Thoughts?

I've never driven an Accord, but I'm currently working on driving my 93 civic to its last mile - and it shows little sign of slowing down.

Honda makes a fine product no doubt.

The crime rate by my work has gotten pretty high in recent days first the shoplifter with the knife and today some lady got her car stolen from our parking lot.  Luckly nothing has happen to me or my property yet.

We're having similar problems around my work.  I work right in downtown Dallas - and in the last 3 weeks, we've had one guy's car broken into, one guy's car stolen, and one guy assaulted by one of the many homeless guys who hang out in the area.

This is all right in the same spot that break-in number 1 of my 3 happened.

I'm confused... Did I somehow get forwarded to the the W&P thread at 'scum? Nope. My mistake. j/k :P Ah, wilderness.

No, KBZ just decided to drag it here for a very misguided moment.

We're fine now.

Back to Mr. Sansweet  :D

It was only a small joke and not meant to be in bad taste.  Sorry.

As for Sansweet - maybe someone should tell him that his Action Figure Archive book is chalk full of mistakes.

I've had my car broken into three times since last September.

Stereo once from work
Stereo once from gated secured parking garage complex
Stereo and box of European travel mementos from car in ultra tight new condo garage (face of stereo was in the glove box but they got it - video footage of criminals and liscence plate, but no footage of the actual crime.

The last incident was in Feb.  I've left NOTHING and I mean nothing in my car since then.

There's few worse character traits than someone who can't admit when they're wrong.

Oh the irony...   ;) :D ;D 8)

Re: Goodfellas - About ******* time!

I have waited since 1997 when I bought my DVD player to buy this.  My patience has paid off.

Drives me crazy when they put out newer better editions of movies I've already got....

I'm picking up this week:

The Fog of War
Coming to America
Lethal Weapon
Spaceballs
Better off Dead

(The last 4 are best buy 2 for 15$)

I'll be watching...and sadly, after this one goes off the air - there will be no prime time sit coms left that I have any interest in.  This is the last holdover from my childhood...

Like I'm gonna start watching King of Queens now?

Nope...no reality t.v., no more sitcoms....looks like I'll have even more time to do anything besides watch t.v. - which is good.

I love the W&P thread over at RS (really it's the main reason I check Wuhers), but I gotta say I'm thankful there won't be one here.  I won't end up having to write everything twice over.

What's the difference?  We've all said everything 900 times each over at Wuher's...

And the flyers advance....

Tampa vs. Philly - I'm hoping for a repeat of the outcome of the last time their respective football teams met one playoff round from the finals...  :)

And I'm hoping for the opposite.  I'm glad the Philly / Toronto series didn't go 7.  Gives the Broad Street Bullies some time to rest up.  The physical play of the Flyers vs. the speed of the Lightning.  Should be a good series.

It definitely should be lots of fun.  

(keep in mind the Lightning won all four regular season match ups - I know it doesn't count for jack, but at least it indicates that they stand a good chance)
