  1. I could have googled that much; but, thanks.  B)

     

    It does seem to be similar idea to Big Bang Theory except that the nerds work with her instead of live across the hall from the girl and the Big Bang guys are scientists instead of tech support.

     

    Reading that wiki page it says

    A pilot for an American version of The IT Crowd was filmed by NBC before an audience on February 16, 2007. Jessica St. Clair played Jen, Joel McHale played Roy and Richard Ayoade reprised his role as Moss. The show was originally reported to have a midseason debut in 2007-08. However recent reports indicate that NBC may not move forward with the show.
    so it might/might not get picked up as a U.S. series. Some do and don't get very far. The Office is doing well. Coupling did not.

     

    It sounds like something I'd watch if it was shown around here. maybe BBCAmerica will pick it up one day.

  2. lol, whatever your thoughts on Billie Piper's Rose, what do you think of her new character Belle on her new show on Showtime? hint, hint some people will think she fits the character perfectly.

  3. How has socializing changed over 30 years? I'm just curious.

     

    technology is highly involved in most social gatherings now. texting is almost as common or moreso than talking on the phone. only the more isolated areas don't use tech to give party info or set up meetings.

  4. I had to look this one up on Google myself before it came on tv.

     

    There seem to be, at least, 3 main alternate universes. Betaverse is ours with Cape Town. Alphaverse has Cape City and more technology and pollution. Gammaverse may not even have cities. Charlie Jade is from Alphaverse and is trapped in Betaverse. There is someone else from Alphaverse also trapped. She caused the explosion that trapped Charlie. She seems to be a terrorist or freedom fighter. There is a company trying to gain power in all 3 universes. She fights them. A guy named O1(oh-one) seems to be able to travel between universes all by himself. He's a serial killer and a (little?) loony. ;) The creators of the show also tinted the scenes so you can tell which universe you are watching by the the overall tint. Green(alpha), blue(beta) or red(gamma). Probably helped them figure out how to keep things separate themselves.

     

    Charlie Jade also seems to be able to travel or see multiple universes but thinks he's suffering hallucinations.

  5. okay, I'm not sure if the girl with pointy ears actually had surgery or if the photo is faked but the cat lady is a real crazy person. Jocelyn Wildenstein. look her up on the web. she wanted her hubbie to be more attracted to her so she had her features altered to be more feline. ruined a perfectly normal face. not because she wanted to look like a cat but because she thought her husband might like her more if she looked like a cat. one scenario is strange but the other is weird. you should never modify your body for someone else.

  6. maybe not better... but certainly different! imo.... but like i said, i guess i am just a Scott Bakula fan! i actually ripped all the music he did in quantum leap to mp3! hes pretty good. but ima bit of a geek like that so its ok! :)

     

    Did you ever see his episodes of Murphy Brown? Traveling photographer that everyone but Murphy seemed to know?

     

    WOW! MURPHY BROWN! now your reaching back! ha! i do actually! Peter Hunt was his name. he did a lot in the 90's. .. wow amnot, you must be as old as me! (or older, heres hopin!)

    Murphy Brown is still shown on cable but yes, I'm one of the older members here. In age and membership, lol. Kyran beats me in both.

  7. dang computer did its kiss me kill me thing again (upgrade then crash) so I've been offline since Friday or I'd have posted about this episode by now.

     

    EARTH IS NUKED? That's wack, dude. It looked worse than Caprica after the Cylon attack.

     

    Now, we wait six or more months to see what they do with a dead planet.

     

    I hate it when SciFi grabs me by the short and curlies and then yanks.

  8. Most walkthrough's are copies of Brokaliv's and don't seem to mention Beauty Line.

    SO, I have no idea what you need but I found this:

    http://faqs.ign.com/articles/840/840492p1.html

    and this one does mention Beauty Knots in Whitecross.

    Whitecross

     

    Speak to The Sister to get information, and to begin the Test of Beauty. In this test, there is a line of rooms containing “Beauty Knots.” Some are surrounded by Boils, and the boils must be destroyed. Cleanse each of the knots in this manner until you reach the end. Once all of the knots are cleansed, you will once again be transported to an Obelisk. This test can be more difficult for solo players than the previous ones, however. If you find yourself unable to kill the demons fast enough to make progress, let a full group come to you before killing them. Try to finish them at nearly the same moment, with an area of effect attack. Clear the room of boils and then go to the next room, killing boils while ignoring the enemies. Using this tactic, you should be able to complete the test. Afterward, return to Finsbury Square.

     

     

  9. lol, I might forget and rarely swear in front of my mom but I hardly ever drink in front of her. cussin' is brought on by stress and people slip up but drinkin' is a preference. out of respect, I just don't do it in the same room as her. if dad was alive, things might be different.

  10. it was okay but that first minute of nothing made me think I wasn't d/ling properly. being on dialup, I always think things aren't d/ling properly,lol.

     

    Yeah the first minute is pretty rubbish, but after that its cool. lol, we've gotta get a save amnot borg fund together to rescue you from dial up. I imagine its very tedious.

     

    web pages aren't that bad, mostly text and small images. larger media like videos and soundbytes can take awhile to d/l. that gets frustrating when all your friends are broadband users and keep sending you links to things. you feel a little technologically backward all of a sudden.

  11. well it beats vomiting for the sake of feeling better the next day.

     

    true, and they didn't seem to bother with rad treatments at all. should have had radiation around somewhere that could be used for treatments.

     

    we've known one of the leaders was doomed to die since this thing started. her remission ending was no real surprise. their admittance of more than friendship, is a surprise.
