You are more then welcome :D

I agree and read the books they were based on so you get a slightly more accurate account of those two series. Very well done though!!

I had an interest in WW2 as my grand father faught for Australia in it. As he faught in the Pacific mainly I find that interesting. I found the Discovery Channel's WW2 in HD colour series quite good. It runs through the lead up to the war and the major campaigns and battles throughout so you get...

Yeah I had a similar problem in my last year of uni when I had insomnia at it's worst. Same thing. 2 - 3 Hours max sleep a night while going to class, doing my honours thesis AND working 5 evenings a week. The Dr was flabbergasted. Sleeping tablets AHOY! Nowadays I really make sure I get at...

This is a rather late reply but I've been away from my computer :( It started as a "let's stay up all night" thing then when we hit day two and weren't tired like we expected we just kept going. By Day 3 we figured "Hell we got this far..." We watched a looooot of X-Files in that it was in the...

I feel weirdly naked now when I go to conventions in my "civvies" I haven't done anything as cool as the ideas above (I mainly geek out a little and go as various Star Trek or Stargate officers) but I've always wanted to do Ash from FFXII. Oh to have the figure to pull that off!!!

I did just over 80 hours with a friend once when we were 16. We marathoned the X-Files and at the end watched Encino Man. Encino Man has never ever been as funny as that night let me tell you. My mate passed out and when I went to get a cup of water to throw on him to wake him up it was two days...

Everyone inevitably mentions the Sydney Funnell Web. If you don't want to meet it don't go to Sydney...seriously though we've had funnell webs in our garage (we currently have a red back problem there) they've popped up around our yard as far back as I remember. I have never been bitten. They...

Good question. I assume we're talking a real fight if wither of these characters existed in reality... There was a Deadpool issue at some point where he tried to kill himself but couldn't because the readers just wished him back into existence by reading the issue(that whole breaking the 4th...

My brother's girlfriend is the Rancour/Devil Incarnate. She'd just eat the raiders having learnt the Cannibal Perk when she ate her way out of the womb... Actually that would be something to see...not sure if anyone would want to eat after that though...

My Uncle had a mate who owned a Newsagency growing up. Every year he would give us the free folders and junk that they couldn't sell. Remember those magazines that would come with a free folders and bits of rock if it was a geology one. We got those. Not the magazine you paid for the free...

As both a PC and a Mac user I'm excited by the prospect of a Mac version thus allowing me to game anywhere with any of my comps. Of course the idea of a Mac having more capability to play a game then a dedicated gaming console makes me despise the Wii even more...

RAMEN!!!

Sorry for the double post guys. I don't know how to feel about this. It's good they're hitting the guys counterfeiting stuff but the law to blacklist sites overseas is a scary prospect. It means that they would have the power to censor the internet. That goes against the entire idea of the...

There are interesting arguments here. Piracy is wrong. We know this. It was only a matter of time before someone started doing something about it. Yes other sites will pop up yes it will continue that's besides the point. I like the question someone posted about reworking copyright laws for...
