    Yeah but you east coast guys leave us west coast guys out of TV threads. By the time the show even starts the discussion is already over.

      Hmm, yeah that's true.. I don't really watch TV except 3 shows (not regularly though). I guess we all need to move to Texas. I read somewhere that Texas would be big enough to occupy all us Americans. One time zone, one state.

  We'll make our own video game convention, with Blackjack and Hookers! In fact, forget the video games all together.
