  1. pink floyd actually just announced a new album to be released later this year, based around some of the sessions from 1994/5, or whenever the Diving Bell was released however, there is no Waters involved and no tour. but maybe Gilmour will do a solo round. who knows. http://www.cbc.ca/news/arts/pink-floyd-to-release-first-album-in-20-years-in-october-1.2698645
  2. nobody is brave enough to tell Scorsese how self indulgent he is, so he's permitted to make poor 4 hour movies instead of wonderful 90 minute ones
  3. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WN7RGIzqcJE soooooo good.
  4. yeah I've seen Baraka. It's by the same dude, so it's sorta the same thing. There may be more 'thematic' differences, but I haven't seen Baraka for a few years, so I can't really comment
  5. Can somebody actually argue this for me? I do not at all understand why people are referring to Lack as a young goalie who needs a mentor. Again: he will be 27 during the next year. Miller, signed over 2 years, will keep Lack on the bench for a large portion of that time. Are we meant to believe that Lack can learn more from watching Miller than actually playing? Lack cannot be a true starter until he is 28/29 years old? Do people actually believe this? Rask, Price, Bishop, Varlamov, Halak, Bobrovsky, Quick, Lundqvist, Crawford, Luongo, Lehtonen, and Fleury, who all make up TSN'S top goalie list, were starters years before their 28th birthday. The only one I left out is Schneider, and that's because Schneider's very easily could have been our starter if Luongo wasn't here. If Lack isn't good enough to be a starter for us now, he probably won't be good enough to be a starter for us when he's 28.
  6. It says an awful lot about the quality of Lack's ability and character if he's going to be 27 years old mid-way through next season and we need to sign a goalie for 2-3 years to "mentor him" -- reminds me an awful lot about the terrible argument against Schneider two years ago that went something like: Schneider needs to back up Luongo because Luongo is proven, and Schneider has never played a full season. If you can't see the catch-22 in that, then I don't know what to say. So anyway, when Lack turns 29 or 30, he'll be able to handle the pressure and challenges of being an NHL goalie? If Lack isn't ready at 27, what are the chances he will be ready at 29? Lack is young in experience, not in age, folks.
  7. yep. half pregnant. another decade of mediocrity for this organization
  8. Big 7/10: cute movie Clear History: 6.5/10: decent enough HBO movie by Larry David, whole host of HBO stars on this one. pretty, pretty, pretty good for those who like Curb Your Enthusiasm humour, but its nothing remarkable, or anything I'd recommend to a non CYE fan
  9. I don't get why we want Miller? are we trying to compete or are we trying to give our young players a chance to play (er, get a good draft pick for rebuild) why ice a 'half pregnant' team... again? don't sign him. play lack. lose dramatically with a young roster, get a good pick
  10. damn, I want CK2. was it just on sale mega cheap and I missed it? really want Balder's Gate 2 and Tropico 4 as well.
  11. Scouts are incompetent very frequently. My point is that people around here have passionate opinions for the sake of having passionate opinions, and that is embarrassing. It's like the hallmark of the kids of this website. Near insanity for its own sake. The opinions on a very complex situation couldnt be based more on a handful of paragraphs someone read here or there. If you believe these guys are sitting there watching Virtanen every night, taking notes and comparing him to other players, that's fine. I don't, and it's why I can't believe the arguments are even happening
  12. 11 pages of posters who have very strong opinions formed on youth based purely on a handful of scouting reports they read online you guys are embarrassing
  13. Should have offered more. Who cares about Shinkurak? Up the ante.
  14. I just ordered a $530 shipment of RK17 gear, too.

      the Log Lady

      My log senses a profound sadness screaming to get out behind the barbs that line your tongue.

  15. Samsara - lovely/10 hard to rate a movie that's just a series of images of life/destruction around the planet, but man its a lovely film if you're in the mood
  16. those movies, eh Monty? what do you mean by THOSE MOVIES?
  17. sweet, fallout 3 75% off! do you guys bother buying Game of the Year editions? I can afford the basic Fallout 3, but would have to add money to my account for the GOTY edition. Worth it? edit: oh, i guess it comes with all of the DLCs as well. can't really afford spending much: Fallout 3 + New Vegas (regular editions) or just Fallout 3 GOTY edition? hELP
  18. Hey guys, can I play too? So what colour is your Bra..zil?
  19. rap game eddie murphy would go on vacation, but the whole life a weekend.
