    Wow. $2150 for a 65 inch version of one of the top 10 or so tvs ever produced. How often can you say you own the best the world has produced for a measly 2 grand? Outside of the Sharp Elite (discontinued), the Kuro (discontinued), the Samsung 8500 plasma, or Panasonic's own ZT60, I can't think...

    It's the best picture I've ever seen even as it is, and I have some janky pic settings dialed in at the moment. There is so much hocus pocus out there about plasma break in. Just going with a simple routine of no black bars or logos for the first 100 hours, and have all the picture settings...

    Just had our Panasonic 65vt60 delivered a few days ago. Got it from Paul's tv for $2300. Our one splurge item for our new place. I've only watched a couple of standard def movies off of amazon prime and some standard def tv (avoiding bars while I break it in). All I can say is WOW. I've never...

    What Made EQ Great? Tell your stories to a filthy casual

    Crimson Tempest! I guess many of the same reasons everyone else is posting. New experience plus it was fucking hard. Maybe unforgiving is a better word. That element of fear generated by original EQ has pretty much been absent in every mmo I've played since (Eve Online is supposed to be like...

    Computer Issues

    Fixed O_O. Intel Rapid Storage Tech driver did it. Didn't realize I needed it installed. Tried it and boom no error. From POST to desktop in 12 seconds. I owe my oldest friend a few hundred bucks from way back in the day, when we were broke 20somethings living on Bourbon street. He has long...

    Yeah I looked at that page earlier and performed those steps. I think what I've got is a good old fashioned hardware incompatibility. Bleh.

    Computer Issues

    Shot in the dark in the unlikely event someone else has dealt with this strange problem. Just bought a crucial m500 240gb ssd, installed into a sandy bridge system from a couple of years ago using an Asus p8p67 ws revolution mainboard and an i7-2600k. When I cold boot the system, I get a...

    Sure, avatar bet for the Friday night game. At least I don't have to watch Reggie run all over our shitty defense. He did look sharp in a Dolphins uniform.

    Just discovered Little People via Spotify, I see you listed him in the first post. Can this guy write a bad song? I'm a half dozen tracks into Mickey Mouse Operation, and so far, the answer is no. I'm in love. No homo.

    2013 NFL Season

    I pity tha fools that be on our schedule this year. An awesome little nugget from Curtis Lofton- "These guys on this team, they come bust their tails every single day. I mean Saturday, me 'Tez and Junior, I've never worked out on a Saturday, but they said, 'Let's go get it.' So we came up...

    Yesterday was my dog's 4th birthday.

    The only guy I knew to own pit bulls also was a gun nut, bought a lifted Bronco, and a Harley Davidson both right out of college. Wasn't a very nice guy. As tragic a case of overcompensation as I've ever seen. Our late dog, Lakota, was attacked on the street during a walk by a pit bull, had...

    Family Car

    One thing to keep in mind, is that we are hurtling quickly toward a zero-fatality car. Crashworthiness is improving by leaps and bounds, but it's uneven. Priuses and Camrys get destroyed on the new small overlap crash test, while Honda Civics and Accords both handle it well. 25% of all traffic...

    Tool might eventually release a new album someday

    I love 10,000 days. Not sure why people are so critical of it. Rosetta Stoned, Vicarious, Right in Two, Viginti Trees, Wings for Marie, 10,000 days. Sheeeit love pretty much every song on that album.

    Skyrim

    Can't wait to check out Falskaar. I rushed through the main storyline somewhat when the game was new. I just purchased all of the dlc and started over, and all of a sudden I can't get enough of this game. I'm way more into it this time around than the first. I suppose I can see the problems...

    Justice for Zimmerman

    I actually agree with this. I'm even fairly pro gun rights (for a libtard). He is still a frothing idiot. Look at all those stupid buzzwords. 'political science major' 'mean ole southern types'. Run of the mill conservatard. EDIT: I saw you in game! At least your name. Some alliance-side quest.

    No, he's right. You're a frothing, rabid moron. In other words, an average conservative.

    Buying a car?

    One new car done, one to go. Picked up a new Civic si a couple of days ago. Big shoutout to Honda of Concord and Ted Johnson here in NC for being awesome. I searched all dealer inventories in the state, found the most common color in inventory, black. I looked up its invoice price and what...

    I consider this Sub Focus' best song, or at least my favorite track of his, and one of my favorite dnb tracks period. It's bullshit that it isn't on Spotify. Free download here though:http://bit.ly/Sub-Focus-Smooth

    I've pvp'd to Alive 2007 a thousand times. Getting into a good fight when this part of Robot Rock hits is the best: edit: put the time in the url, didn't seem to work, starts at 5:05 this is a pretty cool mix of both clips from the commercials

    2013 NFL Offseason and Draft

    Ed Reed in New Orleans. I'm sure he's just visiting family and will be a Texan, but I can still dream. Darren Sharper helped get us to that superbowl in '09, I'm all aboard signing old good safeties. Make it happen Loomis.

    Daft Punk

    Caught this on SNL last night. My soul is starving for this album now. I've listened to that clip probably 20 times already lol. When I think back on the last 15 years Daft Punk is pretty much always in the rotation. So much mileage out of their fantastic albums.

    Buying a car?

    Got a surprise extended test drive of the 2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid. Rented a car for a trip to New Orleans and they gave us a brand new Fusion with 1000 miles on it. Still smelled like new car. It was a great car all around. Mileage was in the mid to high 30s with me pushing 80 most of the way...
