Wendy Northcutt put together the collection on the web and has made 4 books from it so far.

Four books? Heh, I guess it's always fun to read about other people's failures :p

Actually it's 5 books. However, she does practice what she preaches :P

Freudian slip

The machine was named for him, but not by him, if you get my meaning. The same can be said for the swamp, B0GMA, the Amphibian FR0GMA and a few others.

That douche can never make the right decision. The game was already lost for the Indians and to save the blushes of Joyce and Jason Donald, the kid who was embarrassed to get a hit that broke up the no-hitter, they should just record it as a Perfect Game. One referral per game for the managers on plays such as this BUT NOT BALLS & STRIKES, that is still the umpire's discretion. You can't challenge a challenge and so forth.

I think there is enough egg on the face of baseball that there will be some change perhaps another ump watching a replay or for obvious errors like this. When Bud gets woefully embarrassed like this you know even he is prone to change; steroids, tie in the all-star game, etc.

Look at the NHL - if a play is to be reviewed, the refs get on the phone to Toronto and listen to what the video judge says about it. With the time wasted by the manager rushing out to argue, they'll have enough time to make the call.

I was really glad when Hill won the championship. I never liked Schumacher. XD

I can understand why that sort of arrogance drives people away from the sport.

I'd grow accustomed to it during the late 80s and early 90s under the tutelage of my grandfather. Hard to believe that this is the 15th year I've watched every face flag to flag.

I used to watch a few races in the 90s, but lost interest in it quite some time ago.

As a result of Schumacher?

But back to the crash, Schumacher had a rare moment of mental block and just drove over the back of Coulthard.

Most people here said Coulthard shouldn't have been where he was on the track as he was so slow, but of course all those people where fans of Schumacher. I always was of the opinion that Schumacher shouldn't have gone so fast with such a heavy rain going on.

He wasn't being caught, he was protesting that Coulthard was holding him up. When Coulthard slowed down, Schumacher should have been able to continue around him. The rulebook states that the lapped driver is to give one lane for passing, which is what he gave.

This reminds me of another interesting failure book called: "The Book of Heroic Failures". My girlfriend happens to own a copy and I must say it is quite an amusing thing to read through. It covers all kinds of failures, from individual ones (like the Darwin Awards) to failing military strategies, stupid inventions and stuff like that.

Yes again. Shame I didn't get any of their albums down there but £13 for one album? I'm sure I can get it for half of that on the internet. On the bright side, I saw High on Fire's latest album and Tool's Ænima as part of the 2 for £10 in HMV.

It depends on how old it is. Also, I think 10EU is enough for a CD, 15EU (=£13) is a bit too much, but I think I would pay that for a brand new album.

If it's a really old album, you should expect it to be at a fairly good price. However, I saw most of Queen's albums for £16 down there. That sucks since I was wanting to get Queen II and put it in my dad's CD collection. I've been waiting forever for him to get that damn album.

It does suck for them but the biggest problem with having high level alts is Afro_Stud who intends to keep depositing for them for the rest of his life, which is sad really because that's 30 or so alts which will keep depositing for many years to come. As for me, I actually intend to stop depositing all my alts at some point, although some of them are aiming for very high levels.

And you know what's worse with having to play all these games? You then get some nostalgia urge and go back to playing old games. Yeah, I know we're going circles in here but recently I had to play the first Tomb Raider game again after writing up an upcoming rant.

Also, how do you plan on shipping out that Barbecued Chicken Breast? Getting kind of hungry at the moment.

Fair enough. If you're not into the sport, there's no real drive to keep watching, though you might keep tabs, by looking at results and watching highlights of the big crashes, for example.

My biggest achievement to date:

50,000 Saves

Now to get myself to a 2 : 1 Save: Blams ratio. Should take me a day or two.

Master Sergeant

Fuck, eventful few days, I didn't allude to it yesterday though. Best friend ended it with his long-time girlfriend, he's an only child but he considers me to be like a brother to him, he really needed me, so last few days have been exhausting; physically, mentally and emotionally. Thankfully he's doing ok for now.

Congrats Bahamut regarding the well-deserved icon modship btw, and as for the BBS Awards, I'll save my votes for the voting thread as being inactive-ish till the start of this month I only have one or two categories I can vote in.

Speaking of which, I think you must resign yourself to getting Underrated nominations, as someone who contributes as much as you but isn't well known outside Wi/Ht and C&C is bound to be picked, like it or not :P

Check you out Mr. Big Mod ;P

It is kind of a shame that icon mods were stripped of their gold auras, but it makes sense on some level when you consider how many users have been made icon mods over the past week or so.

Still, hope all the icon making / modding goes well. GRATZ ;)

I will leave the replies for later if you guys don't mind. I'll be leaving really soon, so I don't have time.

For now I'll just say: Congrats to Bahamut on becoming an icon mod and thanks to Coop and Haggard for the underrated nominations in the midyear BBS awards ^^

I was really glad when Hill won the championship. I never liked Schumacher. XD

I can understand why that sort of arrogance drives people away from the sport.

Exactly. And he was all over the media, so no real escape from Schumacher at that time.

I love the way that he did an advert for some sort of shampoo and he was dubbed with a deep and masculine voice, despite that fact that he speaks perfect English.

His voice just isn't masculine enough. XD

I'd grow accustomed to it during the late 80s and early 90s under the tutelage of my grandfather. Hard to believe that this is the 15th year I've watched every face flag to flag.

I used to watch a few races in the 90s, but lost interest in it quite some time ago.

As a result of Schumacher?

Partly. But mostly because I realised I'm not that much into motor sport. XD

Fair enough. If you're not into the sport, there's no real drive to keep watching, though you might keep tabs, by looking at results and watching highlights of the big crashes, for example.

Heh, sometimes I watch the start of a race and hope for a big crash. ^^
Luckily the cars are a lot safer than they where some years ago, so even if there's a huge crash almost nobody gets hurt in it.

You got at least one vote for Most Underrated so far. :P

Yeah, a few too many. I may be in the voting process but not if we get others to have more nominations than me.

But it's only the 7th.

Exactly! That's what makes it even worse!
Plus, I have to pay at least 10Euro for the doctor today, and maybe another 10 for the dentist later this month. It's a copayment, so I HAVE to pay those 10 Euro...

Sit out for the rest of the month if you want. Just make sure you have enough to get the new albums by Blind Guardian and Iron Maiden.

It's not that I'm totally broke, but I like to have a few hundred bucks on my bank account, just in case something bad happens. It's always nice to have a little back up.
Plus, there's a rent to pay and I really don't like it if I don't have at least the rent for next month on my account.

If it's a really old album, you should expect it to be at a fairly good price.

Yeah, but if it is an old album and a rare album as well, then you'll have to pay tons of money to get it. ^^

But Queen's albums aren't rare.

Quite so. But there are albums that may be considered rare, but I guess not many people care for them as many albums get a re-release these days and most people (myself included) are just happy when they can listen to the songs. They don't care if it is an original release or not.

Hey I just noticed that our good buddy Hacsev is on the frontpage for this work.

Congrats to him and write a review, since it's being torn apart for being FP'ed.
