New Spiderman 3 Trailer

Comment in News (1 digg, 0 replies) - on 11/10/2006

I just the other day got, a Windows Longhorn was sent by Bill Gates' staff at 10 o'clock in the morning sometime in 2003 and I just got it January 2007. Why? Because it got tangled up with all these things going on the internet commercially. (see comment)

Bye, Bye Bill of Rights

Comment in News (1 digg, 0 replies) - on 10/07/2006

I love Macs and I'm typing this post on one right now, but the "mac guy" comes off as a total tool. John Hodgman is my hero and intellectual better. (see comment)
