I think the point being missed here is it's called RAPE! Rape occurs only without the consent of one party. (To Hell with statuatory rape, created only to help line jails and prosecutors lists when it comes election time. ) So, they're saying the mannequins DIDN'T consent to it? Of course not! They're dummies! They can't speak! Or... are they saying... the mannequins DID say no...

Now there's an idea! Replace the giant finger controller with a celery stalk!

Did you mean sound?

It's called a running gag... yeah... that's it... *drums his stumps against his stalk sending a secret coded message to others of his kind* "I THINK THEY'RE BEGINNING TO SUSPECT! Hold off attack. Stall. Pretend to be harmless palm trees a little while longer."

The red hibiscus looks strangely like a triffid from the BBC TV adaptation of Day Of The Triffids!

Here in my home country, as well as in various parts of the world, there has been a wide rift on the opinions of the current US President, George W. Bush. 2008 will be an essential year for voting in the US, and, I believe I have finally found a candidate worthy of my vote. For the first time in 12 years, I'd gladly cast my ballot of the only being possibly capable of achieving such greatness. www.zod2008.com GENERAL ZOD GETS MY NOD!

Unfortunately, in the real world, things don't work that way. Those who would be unlikely to know that their CD is protected and has the rootkit would most likely also be one who doesn't have AV installed, does not regularly update the definitions, does not have the knowledge to configure AV to run the way it should, e.g. not the default settings, or to fix the AV should a problem arise with scanning or updates retrieval. Plus, once opened, I'd be willing to bet that the CD does not contain any info on it being super copy protected. Only on the cellophane as they would legally require so the customer can return it unopened. I've not seen any of these protected CD's, so, I don't know if they are labeled on the discs or the booklets or inserts for this protection.

You were a yout! In the UK, The Ewok Adventure saw a theatrical release. Sort of like how you Canadians saw Battlestar Galactica as a theatrical release, as opposed to America who saw it as a TV mini-series. In many parts of the world, things seen on US TV are shown as a theatrical release elsewhere. For instance, the three part Batman arc, The Zodiac Crimes, featuring the Joker and Penguin teaming up, was originally intended as a theatrical release as a follow up to the Batman movie. It was eventually shown in the US on TV, but, elsewhere, it was also distributed as a feature film.

Wow... I just cannot believe this piece of Spam I received today... The subject wasn't unusual. The fake sender tells me he took these pills and became an amazing sex machine. What was unusual was there was a pictorial example. Even more so, it was a cartoon. Even more more so, it was Bart Simpson.. :&

And, what about people who are NOT aware of these protected CD's? They never exchange them, sell them to someone who isn't versed in the protection, too. Or, worse, put them up for sale at a used shop or donate them to a library? Well after Sony's exchange program ends, of course, which they'd only keep up as long as they legally need to and not forever as would be necessary. The result? A Trojan that probably will live forever.

A thousand pounds a slice? Sure that pie isn't of the hot hair variety?

Found something unique at the library this week. I believe this discussion had started before on the old message boards. About the two Ewok movies. Yes, a double feature flipper of the two Ewok movies! The Ewok Adventure was listed as Caravan Of Courage on the disc, which I believe was the UK theatrical release title.

That part of it seems definitely inspired by Triffids. The rest, though, no. For instance, 28 Days seemed to establish that the plague was limited mostly to areas of the United Kingdom. Plus, there was no global blindness or man eating plants.

How DARE you bring a thread BACK on topic!

My mother was also a Dallas fanatic and I had to sit through it a lot. Keel played one Clayton Farlow for 10 years on the show. I've no idea who that character was, though. I never got the chance to read Day Of The Triffids until 1992, in college, some 7 years after I got the VHS. In exchange for a copy of the movie, my Botany professor gave me her copy of a paperback of the novel. It was missing its cover. BTW, next time you should see 28 Days Later, try to not think of Day Of The Triffids when you see that guy walking through the deserted city. I saw it in a theater, and, I was thinking the same thing: guy wakes up in hospital, no one is there, roams the streets, no one is there.

No, but, if you'd hand me the plate of wombats, that would be most appreciated.

Let me explain the scene in question. Keel's character in the film has adapted a gasoline hose from a tanker truck and converted it into a miniature flame thrower. Keel was in westerns, musicals, and on the TV series Dallas, probably what he is best known for. He passed away just over a year ago. Triffids was probably one film he did for the money. Look for the tennis shoe wearing Triffids walking down the road towards his truck in a brief shot near the end of the film.

For my area, anyway, Tuesday, November 15th, is a day they're keeping a close eye on. Fastly falling temperatures, a high expected of 48 F, and a pressure front coming in. A lot of possible stormy weather. In Iowa, tornadoes ripped through that area.

Someone pass me the waterwings, please.

Hmmm... this: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v78/jpel...02/takethat.gif and that: http://www.imahosting.com/sigs/headsmash.gif together in the same post... there is something to that. BTW, for you Doctor Who fans, look for a cameo by the actress who played Susan, Carol Anne Ford, as a blind French woman. She, unfortunately, gets eaten by a Triffid.

Well, now, what brought that on?

After re-reading this thread again, I believe porn should be freed to! Richard B. Porn has been imprisoned for far too long on trumped up charges! Let Dick go free!

I never thought of it until just now. What exactly is PTP and OTP? I can understand what it means for 2 layered discs. With parallel, I'd guess is that one layer is read spinning the disc in one direction and at layer change, the 2nd layer is read without changing the rotational direction orf the disc. With opposite, at layer change, the disc spins in the opposite direction that it was rotating when Layer 0 was being read. Is that right? If it is, and even if it isn't how does it apply to single layer discs, if it does? Wouldn't all single layer discs be PTP by basic definition of physics? So, I'm guessing there is no such thing as an OTP DVD-5. Please help/correct me as needed/desired. Thanks!
