And my arent they spectacular! That still is one one my favorite episodes. Too bad we do not have as many quality written shows these days and networks chase the almighty reality TV dollars. Who can blame them?

I am not a big fan beyond Amazing Race (duh!) and maybe Survivor, but the later has well passed jumping the shark. And I know the producers for this season are kicking themselves now that two of the, um, endowed hotties got the boot....

3) If what you are doing in the photo is illegal in the USA, don't take the photo.
4) When it doubt, take all the batteries out of the cameras and cell phones w/ cameras.

The most important rule. The Vegas rule. Two of my friends violated that rule :mad:

Very good rules! Add:

5) Verify rules 1 - 4 were followed upon wake up the next day. If not, initiate immediate damage control.

Thinking of my friend's 40th birthday at Casa Rosa. We now have an entirely different perspective on fruit....

:eek:

I spent $100 more than that just to get flights to the cr@phole tourist trap that is NAS, and hostel prices in AMS are significantly cheaper than the Sheraton Cable Beach.

If he bails at these prices, I shall disown him as a friend.

Tell him to stop being a tool. :td:

I'm not a huge TV fan, but from the people I know that are the past few years have seen some very good scripted TV shows, arguably the best in a long time.

This month, they have switched to The Day the Earth Stood Still and something about the guy who invented intermittant windshield wipers.

Just goes to show that my initial intuition about FT was right. Nothing but a bunch of internet weirdos. :D

Then I boarded my flight to DFW and went home.

I think you can add "bought tall boy of Carslberg malt liquor at airport beverage store, proceeded to train station, purchased ticket to Amsterdam Centraal, and boarded train," before beginning the redactions.

I saw that one. My thoughts were "Hollywood has officially run out of ideas."
