    So instead of using one of the half dozen other devices I have that can show TV apps on my television, I have to buy a $70 Apple TV or a $50 cable? Awesome.

    What is Hawkeye shooting at?!?!?! Seriously, that sight line is awful unless there's a hill immediately behind the enemies.

    Well, yeah, would you want to dedicate theatre space to an indy flick and try to convince people to spend $10 a seat on it when they can get it at home for $10 a month? And I notice there's nothing in the story about what Netflix is demanding in terms of gate receipts. If they're asking for the normal take I can

    Today the University of Notre Dame announced its new uniform combination for 2015: blue jerseys with black helmets.

    Never fear, they're on the case.

    I love Replay, but I wonder how well it would really work as a film because it kind of plays out as three different stories. You've got the first couple of times where he's reliving his life and it plays out as wish-fulfillment. Then you've got the Groundhog Day middle section. And then it turns into a Time-Traveler

    I guess I would look at the shows from 50 years ago and see what's still relevant today and, by and large, the shows that still work are broad sitcoms centered on home life. So I would imagine that the future will be much the same: The Big Bang Theory and Modern Family. Maybe some workplace comedies like The Office.

    Dessert is when we will usually go out. I make the dinner and do all the lavishing, but then we go out to a nice frou-frou restaurant where we could have dropped $120 on scallops and steak, but instead spend $40 on really nice, house-made desserts, scotch, and good wine. By going out at 8:30 or 9:00 we miss the

    So you're willing to pay $50/mo for Netflix, Hulu, Amazon, and Sling but you won't pay $50/mo for basic cable (at least, that's what our local cable company is charging right now)?

    It kind of goes along with

    Copying sections of books is legal so long its use falls under the Fair Use doctrine. So long as its just a few pages and not entire sections, you're usually okay.

    Ramsey is using 8-10% now, which is more realistic, but it's still much better than Your Money or Your Life, which is telling you that you can get an 8% return on US Treasury bonds.

    And that's with an awfully generous definition of "correlation."

    They could, and theoretically they already can, but the nice thing is that Title II classification allows other companies to offer you service through the same lines, so if one company wants to go with metered use, another can come in and offer unmetered use, which is the best of both worlds since low-use consumers

    Not to be contrary, but this is clearly The Leap of Faith, the third challenge in Last Crusade. The Word of God actually gave Indiana Jones something to stand on.

    Both the Buffy and Angel finales use this device, with the plan to turn all of the "potentials" into slayers hidden from the audience until right before the final battle starts and Angel revealing that he already killed the Circle's leader by poisoning his food in an earlier scene.

    Character deaths are almost always about the lasting effects. If a character's death continues to affect the other characters on the show for a while, it usually ends up working (think of the way Dumbledore's death informs basically the entire final Harry Potter book).

    That's what bit.ly is for.

    It's not just the mountains. I live on the plains and the high today is 73 with tomorrow's low at 27.

    So let me get this straight. In order to get to your website or promotion, you want me to pull out my web-enabled phone, open a dedicated scanner app (which I may or may not have installed) and scan your QR code to take me to said website or promotion? Why not just give me a URL and cut out the middleman?
