I'm Settling Tis Once And For All 
fter a case of Yuengling, the better [art of a fifth of Southern Comfort and obnoxiously coming on to my best friend's sister in law whom bears a strikong reseeblence to Charlize Theron, I am the twit! 
I Just Went Back 
to check to see if my perceptions may be effected a tad bit by my consumption. They are sleeping quite peacefully on the couch. Still looks cute though (I'm still buzzing s bit) but except for the blond hair, she looks nothing like Charlize Theron. More of a Sarah Jessica Parker type. Yeah, I'm sticking with that. 
HeadThump 
Charlize Therone or Sarah Jessica Parker?

Please post pic's in the "pic's and beta" thread so we may judge for ourselves. 
Oh Why, Oh Why 
Does drunk Thumpy play such cruel tricks on sober Thumpy? Drunk Thumpy is not going to be allowed to come out to play for a very long time. No he isn't. I had completely forgotten about those post until I just checked for updates.

BTW, I never liked Sex in the City -- but at the same time, I've always thought SJP was absolutely gorgeous. Loved her in Mars Attacks! and that in itself may be a little disturbing, given the nature of her character there. 
HeadThump 
You're not the first person to hit on someone he shouldn't while drunk. I wouldn't dwell on it too much. 
Blaming Pc For Tv Insults 
I never liked sax in Quake --but at the same time, I've always thought MerceBabe was absolutely gorgeous. Loved her in Malice and that may be a little headthumping, given the nature of her monsterability there 
 
lol 
Survey Says: 
And the best WinAmp skin is?... 
Default 
 
Hmm 
Anything by monaux; http://www.monaux.com/

(Spore owns meh) 
Winamp 
The problem with a lot of skins is that they waste space or are unreadable. The default skin is a tribute to good UI design. Too bad you can't get new colours for it. 
winamp 5.0 = default skin with many color selections available + ability to make skin transparent over desktop = winwinwin 
I Don't Like Default 
I find it garish

This is my fav: http://www.winamp.com/skins/details.php?id=68338 
Well, Scampie 
You apparently aren't cool enough to still be using WinAmp 2.27. 
Hmm 
I use 5 for a couple of reasons;

1) It's not as pathetically lame as WinAmp 3 was
2) I find the libary thingy useful for sorting out tracks before I import them into iTunes. 
Hmm 
Or and you can also use WinAmp3 skins which means you can use this; http://www.winamp.com/skins/details.php?id=122902

(The one nice thing to come from version 3) 
UWF 
My MSN client informs me you have sent a message but it wont let me open it nor send anything out. MSN must be doing one of its periodic crack ups. I'll check in the morning, and I hope to send the map then as well. Still tweaking it a bit. 
Yea 
Monaux is cool. Surprised anyone outside of a webdesign community knows of him.. shrugs. I wish www.damnengine.com would do a skin, he's got some killer photo-manip work. I'm still waiting on his reply answers to a feature interview.

For those who haven't seen it

12.8 MB Shacky hand held, not to bad, you'll certainly get the idea. The link will take you to the download page, where you can either, right click, save target as, or just click away and stream it, depending on you connection. 
Geforce 6800 Details 
Just in case you missed it, today Nvidia released all kinds of information on their new GPU. There are tons of previews popping up giving some really impressive benchmarks. If you want to take a look at the card try the following sites, they each have some good indepth articles on this new board...

http://www.firingsquad.com/
http://www.anandtech.com/
http://www.tomshardware.com/

There seems to be a huge leap in performance from the current generation of cards, to the 6800. One can probably expect Ati's R420 to post near this level, or just under. (It's rumored the first board will not perform to the 6800, but the first refresh will). Anyways its exciting to see these kind of jumps in technology. 
And Now... 
we're just waiting for someone to release a Game Design Processing Unit... 
Err 
Anyways its exciting to see these kind of jumps in technology.

No, it's not -- seeing as how my GF4 is becoming more and more of a "golden oldie" as the Doom 3 release nears (or hovers, whatever). 
I Agree... 
.... it's very interesting to see technology jumps, progress and improvement, both for hardware and software... but like said "bif" when you buy a PC, one week later it is "obsolete" and new games are not supported in most of cases... grrrr..
For example when the first demo of Doom3 was presented a few years ago, I didn't remember exactly when and where, but I've read this in a specialyzed magazine: the player needed 2 boosted PCs working both in parallel to allow the game running not really well.. and today, the game is not yet released and it seems there's not yet a machine that allow the game running at full speed... Furthermore, no-one knows if the game will be ported to game console (PS2, GC, XBox ??) because console have lower performances than PV... Software technology is far away hardware can perform... inn this case...
Anyway...
To my point of view, it looks like a "weapon race"... and we are the "happy loosers" of this "war".... sigh... 
Argh Fileplanet = Suck 
Hello hello, how can I download some decent quake1 maps without going through damned damned PQ or FP?
HD has died and I want my good old maps back...well not my maps, other peoples...but you get the idea....
