Hey, the bigger the cushion...wait I just vomited...
-
- searched through reams of websites and can not seem to find a way to get it to work, other than enabling a dual - boot install - anyone else find a way to get either USNF97 or USAF to work on an XP machine?

I aint hatin'...but if it hasnt been usable due to OS conflicts in a long while, that warrants a re-direction of assets

Any Interest In This?

Honestly, USAFBLTNO, why do you ask? Same dudes are going to go YESSSSS! or something to that effect...I think you just like being masochistic...and that is what I appreciate about you -
A couple of size comparisons... and I never realized that the B-47 was so fat...it always looks so clean...then again the BUFF really isnt that big, I think I read that the BONE is actually larger, but looks smaller...man another Dr Who reference in the same week

- did you even read what I wrote? Nope... -
man ghostrecon.net? never heard of it...

Only read the eBooks that managed to get printed in the back of some of the paperbacks, like the Darth Maul one, and Fools Bargain...seems like there was another A buddy of mine gave me a set of SW eBooks for when I went to Iraq...man the PDA is great for that, carry the Library of Congress on a 4Gb card...any way there were some of Zahn's short stories (guess they are from that SW online club)...they are really cool
-
Its sad though...I mean to watch so many titles go console only or console first, then port to PC (which may even be worse)...well when that circle is complete, count me out of games...I have a PS2 that I bought to be a DVD player and then after trying several games, just dont like it Living in Japan, of course we have PS3 everywhere and its not as cool as a ramped up PC to me...oh and the ability to tweak things I know, preaching to the choir

ESB...one of my favorite movies of all time...it was near - perfect...right up there with "Shichinin no samurai" -

Now that's better... You know, I always wondered if they really wore like a dozen patches on their zippersuits and pull-over shirts under neath like that, I mean back in the 80's -
didnt think about that aspect...like securing her legacy (in her perhaps demented, certainly tortured mind) by going out (like Kobain) sad...real sad...

I read their interview and originally they wanted to make Anakin a Sith (so apparently this was planned quite a while ago, given his demise during YVW) and Lucas was like, no...not another Anakin turned evil It is interesting how they picked three authors and each did/does a trilogy then combined that into a set of nine (no idea what that is) Dont get me wrong, I have been reading them, just think it would have been an awesome trilogy rather than a nonalogy (like a nonagon)... But I did just get in Broken from the Legacy series in tradebook form...will start it next, not really a fan of "graphic novels" since I learned how to drive, but what can you do when that is what they do? Did you read Allegiance yet? I liked it a lot, reminded me of "Fool's Bargain"
-
that is a plausible explanation...guess they dont know about the thriving pirating business in consoles in certain places

Wasnt one of the reasons is that Lucas hated dealing with the Unions at the time? Like how he was in "trouble" because he famously refused to start the movie with the obligatory opening credits (among other issues) I remember he made a remark after the pre-quels were started when someone asked why the Death Star took 20 years, one of the reasons he gave was "Unions" -

sad...at least you could have used a picture from Top Gun...only time Clint flew was Firefox... -
Ah, that explains it...thought it was a clever marketing gimmick...kind of like how Lucas will be 25th Anniversary Edition and then 25th Anniversary Collector's Edition...and then 25th Anniversary Collector's Theatrical Release Edition...and then, well you get the idea I remember reading that when Sci-Fi asked them to produce more episodes it was a real burden due to the planned production rate and the increase gave us stories like the Miner's Plight (worst), but then they re-grouped and came up with Scar (but that was too-hollywood for me, but better)

- ugh...didnt know it was Ubi...man that means it will be like Silent Hunter 3, 4, Lock Up, oh and everything else...

Hey, even the McDonald's is clean...oh and we just received a Wendy's and they make the food just like picture...call it Bizzaarro Fast Food World

So Vegas is better? I guess I will wait until Far Cry 2 comes out...or Duke Nukem Never

the same retard AI that has been made mention repeatedly in these forums as being able to pull 11G and uber-missile shot aware? OK, lets you and me play on line...wait, why dont you have a challenge and take on Sony? Then, when your mother disowns you from the beating he will thrash yo with, we can talk -

Dude...you say they cant be destroyed...there are pictures of burning Tomcats...the Tomcat had awesome capabilities, just as the Eagle and even the Mud Hen does...dont forget those crazy pop-up canards and the slow speed benefits of swing wings that the Tomcat has...the Eagle has one planform, and the Mud Hen is saddled with wide hips (in the form of the conformal fuel tanks) and is rigged for A/G work (poor b@st@rds)... So it would not be easy for a Mud Hen, but if the driver knows what he is doing, he gets a kill solution...it really is that simple...sorry you got waxed and are upset about it (that is the part that I understand, given the tone of your typing)...but it happens...now maybe practicing and learning proper tactics, plus judicious application of skill will be better than arguing Oh, and note that in the engagements that I used guns, a then a single Sidewinder to prove that either work...yep, Tomcats turn better, and it is because of partly design, the need for slow speed landing on carrier and not to mention that many lessons from early in Viet Nam were incorporated as in F-4 v. MiG-17 so they were dogfighters and fleet defenders, it really was one of the finest airplanes ever designed Eagles were built to take the largest possible AI radar the fastest the farthest, then do something about it if they were in the merge...so an Eagle knife fights second; a Tomcat can slap a Bear out of the sky, then tangle with an A-4 class fighter, then land on a pitching carrier... -
They do in Japan, in fact none finer, and being a product of the Dirty South, I know fried chicken...hey get this...at the Japanese KFC, the place is something called "clean" and the food is this crazy idea called "hot" and also "tasty" as if the Colonel himself were working there, seriously
