  1. Get a bigger vaccuum cleaner. But a good thread nonetheless. It's interesting. Did someone call for MEGA-MAID???
  2. I'm compelled to pick the second option. I'm just contrary by nature.
  3. I have some of those scans too. the rest are just UN SPACYs
  4. I'd like to see Baltar turn into a completely evil prick. I love lothesome dispicable villians with no moral conscience. Or even better, he turns out to be a Cylon.
  5. I have to agree, that 350 is butt,ass ugly. The perportions are exactly opposite of the 240Z. The front is short and the rear is long. It's freaky looking. I love the early Zs (my first car was a '77 280Z that I'd still be driving if hurricane Isabel hadn't smushed it with a tree:( ) but the line really went into the crapper with the ZX and beyond.
  6. What about Duella and Elosha? They don't look white to me. This show has an asian and a hispanic as well...why do people look for this kind of nitpicking? The original show never had asian or hispanic people...should we condemn that too? Some people think racial diversity isn't there unless the one they favor is prominent above the rest. Sure, he coulda been a black dude but then, someone would grumble that they made the black dude an alcoholic. Ok let me clarify. I don't dislike the new Tigh because of his skin color but because he's a dick. The old Tigh was a competent, professional officer and I would have preferred him to be more similar to the original in both apperance and personality. Not because of any racial issues but as a tribute to the original. The new Tigh is an interesting character but I'd have rather seen him as another character. This is all just my opinion and doesn't really detract that much from the show for me. These are the ways I'd do it if it were my show.
  7. my $.02 I have to say that I like the new story but I prefer the old mechanical designs for the most part. The new Vipers are OK the new Galactica is much cooler than the old but the new Base Stars, Cylon Raiders and Centurions suck donkey balls. Unlike the rest of you I like the president. She keeps Adama in check and does so much less annoyingly than the council of 12 in the original show. Without conflict there is no story and if it's Galactica vs. the Cylons every week it'll get really boring really fast. I don't mind a female Starbuck. She act's just like the male Starbuck right down to the mannerisms but I don't like the new Col. Tigh he sholda been a brotha, the new Galactica seriously lacks color. In conclusion, it's a good show so far and I'm really cuious to see if they'll find Earth this time.
  8. I watch DYRL the same way I watch porn. I fast forward through all the talking to get straight to the action.
  9. Then what was 3 shrot knocks, a long, 2 taps, then 4 sharp jabs of the doorbell for? That was to warn me so I could get out the back door.
  10. I've wondered that, too. Seems like an unusually large span of time between the Us and JP release. Is it possible that there are plans to air the Votoms series in the US this spring and they want the toy to coincide with that? Just speculation. Comcast on Demand has benn running Votoms for a few months now. They're slow a crap about it though. It's been about 3 months and they're only up to episode 8.

    THE BIG ESCAPE

    I remember that. I think it was Rick The Hunter.
  12. Don't think so. supposedly the round mover and parachute packs are going to be sold seperately.
  13. Check page 9 of this thread;) http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?...opic=143&st=160
  14. Souds right to me. http://macross.anime.net/mecha/united_nati...r_ii/index.html
  15. The 130 really is a tough bird. The wide flat belly is probably what saved it. Any other plane would have rolled over.
  16. I got these pics in an email this morning. Thought you guys might enjoy em. Here's what the email said: "Last week one of our planes flew into a US operated airfield in Iraq during the day and saw there was construction equipment on the runway. Yet there was no NOTAM (notice to airmen). A trench was being dug in the runway, and it was not marked. It's a long runway and they just landed beyond the construction. They filed a safety hazard report that was immediately forwarded to our higher headquarters and to the Air Force wing based here. Well, it seems the construction continued and still was not marked or NOTAMed or anything. A C-130 landed on the runway the night of the 29th and didn't see the construction. C-130 was totaled, several injuries to the crew and the few passengers but nobody was killed."
  17. The answer to this conundrum is quite simple. A 27th letter .
  18. The official spelling according to BW is Milia with one L. The two Ls was started by someone around here. http://www.macross.co.jp/macross/contents/index.html
  19. This mod is kinda half-assed. The site says it works with Generals or Zero Hour but I could only get it to work with the latter. There might be a better way to do it but I'll tell you how I did it. first I went to the Zero Hour folder. The default location is "C:\Program Files\EA Games\Command and Conquer Generals" I changed the name of the "data" folder to "data1" (this is important so you can easily get rid of the mod and because the mods data folder is incomplete) next I extracted the mod into the Zero hour folder using WinRAR. I copied the "cursors", "movies", "scripts" and "water planes" folders from the "data1" to "data" folders. You should be good to go after that.
