too bad we’re still stuck with Batista

Joel > Mike, though.
Mike was cool, but Joel was classic and awesome.
by AtomicGarden on May 6, 2008 7:58 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
Credited. Joel all the way. I grew to love Mike, but Joel was sui generis.

I liked Joel better than Mike
but I liked the bots characters better interacting with Mike over Joel.

A bunch of you are smart, so I'll ask a question that my teacher could not answer.
How is it possible to find the integral of 1/x? It could be anything, from ln(x) to ln(10000x). Is there any way to actually know the integral of 1/x?
by Last Fan Of Jose Lopez on May 6, 2008 7:57 PM PDT reply actions 0 recs
But it could also be ln(abs(2x)) + c
by Last Fan Of Jose Lopez on May 6, 2008 7:59 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
What'd I do wrong?
Because if you derive ln(2x) you get 2/2x or 1/x
by Last Fan Of Jose Lopez on May 6, 2008 8:02 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
ln(ax) = ln(x) + c
Where c = ln[a(x-1)], I think…
by Graham on May 6, 2008 8:35 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
Oh, what the fuck am I talking about
c=ln(a)

You guys would be LUCKY to get Jim Bowden.
Seriously – look at his moves over the past three years and just tell me you wouldn’t trade Bavasi for him in a heartbeat.

No idea
Consensus seems to be that no one good would take this job, due to the FO sucking, but it’d be hard to get any worse. Unless we hired Sabean or something.

Dave Cameron brought up some good points
on how a good GM candidate like Chris Antonetti could be convinced to GM the Mariners. The inherent problem is that the Mariner’s higher-ups (chuckie and howie) aren’t going to do so and would most liekly hire some old-school dolt like Krivsky.
by redwolf75 on May 6, 2008 8:51 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs

That one with the old lady who keeps getting a phone call from her dead ex-fiancee?
That one with that girl who goes on that road trip across the country hitchhiking, and finds out she died later on in the episode?
That one where those kids’ parents are fighting and they jump into the swimming pool and don’t come out?

Have you seen Rear Window?
That has got to be one of his greatest pieces of work.

Photographer breaks his leg, sits in a wheelchair at home all day
and eventually becomes a peeping Tom with his camera. Then, he becomes paranoid and believes his neighbor is murdering people. The movie Disturbia is a modern day Rear Window.

That's the first thing that came to my mind
Is it a direct parallel remake type? Or a loose rip-off.

Rebecca is my favorite Hitchcock.
Closely followed by Strangers on a Train. Rear Window is in the top five. Which, considering that it’s Hitchcock, makes it one of the best movies ever made.

I've never seen Rebecca but Strangers on a Train is awesome.
I’m also partial to North by Northwest.

Alfred Hitchcock Presents
Was a TV show that was produced, hosted and occasionally directed by Alfred Hitchcock. Half hour horror/thriller films. Awesome show.
