Had my hand on a rock yesterday at the Franklin insitue in Philly that said it was 5.5 billion years old that was "found on Earth". (Well the rock didn't speak, thats what the sign read.) I know a meteor isnt created on Earth, but it was found there.

Usually when big companies make big moves like this their stock price goes up as they are cutting costs. This article makes it osund like it would have been a bad thing to fire people while it was still a publicly traed company. Publicly traded companies fire people all the time, it' snot better or worse or different now that they are private.

Manti Te'o supposedly fell in love w/ a voice on the phone belonging to another guy that he thought was a girl. I don't see falling in love w/ a talking machine voice as that much of a stretch.

About 20 years ago somebody behind me at a Detroit gas station had their tank of gas billed to my credit card. A few years ago Sony gave it all away. Next year I'm sure there will be another security breach. And the year after that. And the year after that. I shop in Target every week with my Target credit card, and I will continue to do so. They are going to get you one way or another. Or they aren't. Target obviously screwed up, their security was lax, their investigation is pathetic, their forth coming with the news leaves alot to be desired. But I'm not going to kill myself, cut up all my credit cards and start using cash, or leave the country. I don't blame people for not shopping there anymore, or switching to cash, but I just don't care anymore. This shit happens all the time, every day people have their identity stolens, it sucks, but it's part of everyday life now, no getting around it. Well suppose tehre's the Amish way, but thats just not for me.

All 3 seasons of GoT back in April. Saw both Hobbit movies in theaters though, full New York prices, sorry. I'm not DLing "epic" feature films to watch on my tv, GoT is on tv regardless. If it was on Hulu or NF I'ld watch GoT that way. Can I get HBOgo w/o HBO yet?

They should called a biologist as its obviously a flying turtle.

What he said. Emphasis on sports and inflammatory. Basically big fish eat little fish. L.I.F.E.

It's not funny (score 4, funny), it's sad. First Nintendo removes Gamecube support under cover of darkness - no Gamecube games, but more importantly for us no Wavebirds for Kart and SSB - and then they remove Netflix after promoting it all over their website. Sure the Wii had a few good games, very few in the past 2 years though, and while the oringal poster was probably trying to be funny I bet most Wiis these days are just used for Netflix/HuluPlus.

There's a disclaimer right on the sunglasses that reads "Do not download the interesect while piloting your aircraft".

No, he meant Voltron. Nobody cares abut the Iron Giant.

It was either that, or "what are we going to do with all the videos of doughnuts and hookers?"

6 blockbusters came out in 6 weeks and nobody can figure out why not any single one of the 6 made a lot of money? Go back over the history of summer blockbusters - start at Jaws or whenever - and you know what you'll find,1, maybe 2 blockbuster movies PER YEAR. Not 1 every week. Add up the total box office of every summer and I bet the TOTAL for this summer is comparable to the TOTAL of every other summer since Jaws. Hollywood wants a successful blockbuster, then make ONE, not 6.

Really, not s single Battlestar Galatica, Cylon or Caprica quote? And if that's too low brow for you how about Farscape? If you make a copy, but then loose track of who is the original and who is the copy, is it really you are just an identical twin? I've always wondered how many identical twins must get switched at some point in their lives while they're still infants. Anybody who has raised even 1 kid thru the sleep deprived years of infancy knows its hard to remember even that 1 childs name. I'm sure today there are bands and things done in the hospital to keep them identifed but what about 100 or 1,000 years ago?

I see so many of these articles about "used' games but somehow nobody ever even mentions "renting" a game, even in passing. Gamefly makes it's living renting games. Redbox has 27 Xbox360 games in it's red boxes now. Why doesn't anybody ever write about how this will affect the rental market?!?!?!

Is it a coincidence that MS just said they were upgrading their servers from 15, 000 to 300, 000? Gotta put'em somewhere.
