Anyone who loves The Wire and hasn't seen David Simon's interviews/commentaries on YouTube must do so immediately:


WARNING: SPOILERS FOR ALL FIVE SEASONS.

Just two of my favorites but plenty of others are linked there.

Thanks! ^^ I love The Wire (I actually felt a bit sad when it was all over).

I don't know if you seen this but Here the Mayor of Baltimore crtiques The Wire and underlines that it's fiction...

and

Here is a clip of her house being raided in a corruption investigation soon after!

So much fail LOL.

Not like I have much else to do. I'll probably watch Lost (S. II) out of boredom eventually.

Now that I have rakeback at FTP, maybe I'll splash around again for giggles.

So hard to take online seriously after playing much higher stakes live and it still being easier.

ALERTS TO TERROR THREATS IN 2011 EUROPE


The English are feeling the pinch in relation to recent terrorist threats and have therefore raised their security level from "Miffed" to "Peeved." Soon, though, security levels may be raised yet again to "Irritated" or even "A Bit Cross." The English have not been "A Bit Cross" since the blitz in 1940 when tea supplies nearly ran out.

Terrorists have been re-categorized from "Tiresome" to "A Bloody Nuisance." The last time the British issued a "Bloody Nuisance" warning level was in 1588, when threatened by the Spanish Armada.

The Scots have raised their threat level from "Pissed Off" to "Let's Get the Bastards." They don't have any other levels. This is the reason they have been used on the front line of the British army for the last 300 years.

The French government announced yesterday that it has raised its terror alert level from "Run" to "Hide." The only two higher levels in France are "Collaborate" and "Surrender." The rise was precipitated by a recent fire that destroyed France's white flag factory, effectively paralyzing the country's military capability.

Italy has increased the alert level from "Shout Loudly and Excitedly" to "Elaborate Military Posturing." Two more levels remain: "Ineffective Combat Operations" and "Change Sides."

The Germans have increased their alert state from "Disdainful Arrogance" to "Dress in Uniform and Sing Marching Songs." They also have two higher levels: "Invade a Neighbor" and "Lose."

Belgians, on the other hand, are all on holiday as usual; the only threat they are worried about is NATO pulling out of Brussels.

The Spanish are all excited to see their new submarines ready to deploy. These beautifully designed subs have glass bottoms so the new Spanish navy can get a really good look at the old Spanish navy.

Australia, meanwhile, has raised its security level from "No worries" to "She'll be alright, Mate." Two more escalation levels remain: "Crikey! I think we'll need to cancel the barbie this weekend!" and "The barbie is cancelled." So far, no situation has ever warranted use of the final escalation level.

      I respond to content in the NC thread because I suck even worse at NL than limit. Stove sez you are 48:52 dog so ya I think fold is in order and also because this guy will be giving you his blinds anyway. You should have his roll in a few weeks just from him folding his blinds

      Should I bother with Twitter? I'm skeptical, but this in turn makes me feel like a techophobe, which i'm not happy with as i'm not even 30 yet.

      No, IMO. You're not interesting (afaik and sorry) and a lot of other people that think they're interesting really aren't. Unless you'd be enthralled by finding out instantly what Famous Person X things of inane subject Y, it's a big fat meh.

      Twitter is good, even if it's to find iout how Harry Potter is getting on in Berlin or w/e foreign country, including Scotland, he just happens to be in.

      I also follow the man utd players that are on there, a few comics, a coupla posters from here, some pro's and some randos.

      Being on Twitter>>>>>>Not being on Twitter

      Edit: speaking as a casual user, not a 'must tweet every second of the day' user.
      04-06-2011 , 10:43 AM
      You don't actually need to say anything on twitter, just follow some people who you find interesting. I've got half of the European poker clique on mine. Oh, and Bee, for lolz.
      04-06-2011 , 10:48 AM
      ^^^ These ^^^

      I only turn on my twitter machine when harry potter is wizzarding.

      Edit: or the ****ing cat, but he isn't as good.

      Edit2: harry potter's spells in berlin just fizzled
